Since you haven't quoted the application name, AppleScript is interpreting
'quickeys' as a variable. Have you defined 'quickeys' as a variable earlier
in your script.
If not you need to quote the application name. i.e. Instead of:
>
tell application quickeys
use:
>
tell application "QuicKeys"
That way AppleScript knows it's a literal application name.
