Hi list,
I'm working on an AppleScript Studio application to control an
application on a remote machine (the computer is on my LAN here).
Whenever I use something like
tell application "iTunes" of machine "eppc://192.168.2.2"
the app just hangs when that code is called (I mean spinning
beachball). I tried putting "eppc://192.168.2.2" in a property, and I
tried putting chris:thePass@ after the :// and before the 192 (as that
is the user name and password).
I found out this isn't an AppleScript Studio problem (otherwise, I
would have sent this to a -Studio list) because I copied the problem
code into Script Editor, ran it, and got the same spinning beachball
result.
Here's the code I used in Script Editor to test:
property remote_IP : "eppc://192.168.2.2"
set theObject to "Forward"
if theObject = "Forward" then
using terms from application "iTunes"
tell application "iTunes" of machine remote_IP
next track
play
end tell
end using terms from
else if theObject = "GoBack" then
tell application "iTunes" of machine remote_IP
using terms from application "iTunes"
previous track
play
end using terms from
end tell
end if
(it's my Studio code minus the "on clicked", etc. stuff)
I tried putting the "using terms from"... outside of the "tell
application "iTunes" of machine"... block, but no difference.
If I try it without "of machine remote_IP, it controls iTunes on my
machine just fine. But that's not what I want.
Any ideas?
Thanks in advance,
Chris Garaffa
