We use Filemaker to run our business ERP for Octa (we make iPad mounts and holders). We have a Quicklook script that was working well for us in 10.9 but some functionality broke when we upgraded to 10.10. I am not sure what changed in the ql-manage but something changed and now several things don’t work as before.
1. In 10.9 you could run the script and it would open the file ql-manage and then double clicking would open it in the native app, this no longer works in 10.10, it just closes the ql-manage
2. 10.9 you could qlook many types of files, and now it only works for jpegs and PDFs, but won’t open them when you click.
3. When we try and view Microsoft files, .doc, xls, xlsx it just spins, in 10.9 this was no problem.
4. It also looks different than launching it from the Finder. When launching quicklook from the finder you see a clean window that has a share button, document name, and open with””. this script runs and the buttons are gone and it has [DEGUG] at the top.
If there is an apple script expert out there that wants to take on this project my guess is you could jump on my screen and solve it pretty quick. I am of course happy to compensate you. You do not need to know anything about Filemaker, just apple script to get this working.
Please let me know if you can help!~
