I recently changed from 10.3.9 to 10.4.11 on one of the MAC. I had script on
10.3.9 that would mount 5 volumes without any problem. On 10.4.11 when I run
this script it mounts sometimes 2 or 3 volumes never all 5. I tried adding
"delay" in between but this does not work.
I encountered exactly this problem about two years ago. None of the
solutions recommended by Google or this list worked to my
satisfaction. Eventually, I created a solution that uses aliases plus
Applescript to resolve the problem.
First, I created a folder named Server volumes in the /Users/Shared
folder. I then mounted the volumes manually and dragged them into the
Server volumes folder to create aliases. The script below handles the
rest.
tell application "Finder"
set currentWindows to name of every window
set startupDisk to startup disk as text
set folderPath to startupDisk & "Users:Shared:Server volumes:"
open every item of folder folderPath
set newWindows to name of every window
repeat with theWindow in newWindows
if theWindow is not in currentWindows then close window theWindow
end repeat
end tell
This solution works perfectly every time.
