Hmm. I haven't really been paying attention, but IIRC, all the photo id's I've fetched seem to always start with "4." and end with "E+9".
Is there a clue here?
iPhoto's scripting dictionary says that the "id" property of a photo is an integer. Yet when you fetch it, it's returned as a real number. What is one supposed to do with that? Very odd IMO.
Not only that, but casting it as an integer yields strange results.
tell application "iPhoto"
(id of some photo) as integer
end tell
tell application "iPhoto"
get id of some photo
--> 4.29496965E+9
end tell
Result:
2354
Shouldn't it be 4294969650?
