I have a script that uses the following;
tell application "Finder" delay 10 set selected_Item to selection delay 10 display dialog "" & selected_Item end tell
If I open, for example, the Applications folder and select any item then run the script "selected_Item" is empty. If I run the script again all is well.
If I then open, for example, the Utilities folder and select any item then run the script "selected_Item" is empty. If I run the script again all is well.
Neither 10 second delay helps.
This anomaly seems to have started with Lion.
Any ideas?
