I have some Filemaker scripts which use QuickTime to play movies. I know FM has its own media player, and we use that as well, but we give users the option to either use that or QT.
The form of the scripts was this: "tell application \"QuickTime Player\" ...
That breaks the script when running under Snow Leopard, so now I've changed it to:
"tell application id \"com.apple.quicktimeplayer\"
The problem with that is that it only works on 10.5 or later, but I still have some clients on 10.4. Therefore I need to check the operating system version number. I don't think there's a way to do that in FM. How do I do it in Applescript?
