problems with folder actions since mac os x 10.5


  • Subject: problems with folder actions since mac os x 10.5
  • From: Christian Breu <email@hidden>

on two xserves we use indesign server to export indesign files to pdf.
to do that automatically, we wrote an applescript added to a number of folders, as folder action.
this script checkes the triggering folder, sets the related settings of indesing server, opens and exports the files.

the os version of the xserves is (unfotunatly still) mac os x server 10.4.11!
the reason for this is, that folder action in os version from 10.5.x up doesn't work equal than in 10.4.x!?

the real problem is, that the folder(action), when just triggered, cannot recognize any (in this moment) additional dropped files and will leave them untouched.
in 10.4 this workes different - additional dropped files are recognized and processed first.

does anyone know about this issue and any solution or workaround?


thx. for any help.
kind regards.

chris
