Hi there,

I have this code:

duplicate folder theFolder to folder "Macintosh HD:Backup:"

it works fine except it often times out with the message, Apple Event Timed Out, because there are a lot of items in the folder to move, and it takes a few minutes.

Is there a way to prevent this as it kills the rest of the script. If I place it within a try, other operations I want to do to the folder once it is moved also fail.

Thanks,
-- Steve Kump
