I’m sure the above has probably been covered countless times, but it’s only now that I’ve needed information. I am not what would be described as a “power user” by any means but have been creating useful (to me) scripts and using them constantly for a number of years now. I was running OS X 10.6.8 (Lion) on a MacBook and all was well. The MacBook was nearly 8 years old and giving me a few problems, so I replaced it with a Christmas gift to myself of a MacBook Pro, running OS X Yosemite 10.10.1.
Questions:
I am having trouble with scripts in the editor. Sometimes when working things disappear (and occasionally the screen becomes huge horizontally). I have to quit the editor and re-open.
Does database events work at all on Yosemite? All my scripts that don’t involve databases work fine, but anything involving a database does not. What’s worse, I rarely get an error message, just an endless “running” which it is almost impossible for me to get out of without shutting down.
in the Databases folder of the Documents folder, databases now are there 3 times, once ending in ".dbev", once ending in ".dbev-shm" and once ending in "dbev-wal." This is only the case for databases that I've attempted to access.
If database events works, is there some relatively simple way of getting it to do so?
Is there a good source (book or online help file) that I can go to that would explain all of this to me?
Sorry to post something that must be very boring now for regular and power users of both Applescript and this forum. Unless I can overcome this, I've lost a lot of important information storage. (Yes, I have it elsewhere in bits and pieces, but it was so efficient in databases.)
Thanks,
