Hello

I just discovered that, under Yosemite (10.10.1),

set theFolder to "~/Pictures/APOD ƒ/"

tell application "System Events"
set theFolder to path of disk item theFolder
end tell

set theFolder to (choose file default location alias theFolder)

behaves flawlessly.
It seems that now there is no need to use old trickery to expand tilde prefixed paths.
