When you say the "whole contents" does that include nested items, in sub folders? List folders only looks at one level, so a folder inside with 100 items would count as 1.
The "entire contents" command will give you the nested items as well, but that has always choked and stalled on large folders.
Tell application "Finder"
Set allMyStuff to count of entire contents of myFolder
End tell
I wanted to scan the whole contents of a selected folder (chose folder), but failed, yesterday.
