Greetings All >
Noticed posts about some recent buggishness in SL and add the
following observations regarding FolderActions:
1. On my second boot into SL the contextual menu item about attaching
a folder action had disappeared and has not reappeared... what to do,
what to do?
2. Only thing left of the AppleScript Utility is FolderActions SetUp
which is hidden I discovered down in /System/Library/CoreServices/.
Does all this indicate Apple is deprecating FolderActions? I for one
have found them very useful. What are they going to be replaced by?
3. I have a set of FA's developed back in Jaguar that have needed a
bit of care and feeding through Tiger but worked fine straight across
into Leopard but are really erratic in SL. There are about 6 steps in
each FA that when called either don't activate at all, or perform 2,
4, or all the steps with no consistency on repeat execution.
Sometimes it is as if FA goes deaf to several tries and then kicks in
again.
4. Lots of error -10004s show up even when targeting some of the
applications so it looks like a major rewrite is in order, right? How
are multiple applications to be targeted in the development process
within the script? It does appear to be almost impossible to develop
the handlers within ScriptEditor because the Editor keeps getting in
the way and bringing up the -10004s, is this so?
If I have all this wrong I would appreciate hearing how to deal with
the new re-invention of the wheel.
TIA
ForNow
