It sound like your Launch Services database is corrupted or incomplete. Try running the following command from Terminal:
/System/Library/Frameworks/ApplicationServices.framework/Frameworks/LaunchServices.framework/Support/lsregister /Applications -r

on my co-worker's computer, this script doesn't work:
try
tell application "FileMaker Pro Advanced" to activate
end try
but this one does:
try
tell application "Macintosh HD:Applications:FileMaker Pro 10
Advanced:FileMaker Pro Advanced.app"
activate
end tell
end try
can anyone tell me what the underlying issue is and how to resolve it?
it is also causing application specific commands to only compile when
the app is open.
