Some times, just after launching the Script Editor (after restarting), I
can't take scripting addition commands to compile until "AppleScript is
activated". The solution posted here many times is "brute force" AS to
activate using:

try
+event ascrgdut;
on error
end try

OR
run script ... some code

"ascrgdut" is the internal appleevent AS display when it is launched (i. e.,
running an applet).
Also, running some apps, such as Smile or Script Debugger, will deploy the
AS environment and your scripting additions' commands will compile ok.

Perhaps this is your problem (?)
