Applescript Utility insists on non-existent Script Editor.app 2.1.2

I recently got Script Editor to work after years of being bugged (was a 4 step process ending with replacing the resources folder in the package). It hadn't worked across several OSX clean installs, so there's no clue to what caused the corruption.
Now, even though the Editor works, Utility only has 2.1.2 in it's pulldown. I have tried numerous times, including with a shut-down, to get this to "Select" the working Editor (2.1.1), but even though it is selected through the file-selector, it never gets set in the pulldown. The utility is 1.0. I've also checked system archives from 1, 2, and 3 years ago, and there has never been a version 2.1.2 on the computers we use.
Will Applescript work properly with this incorrect listing for a non-existent version, and therefore unlocatable Editor? It would be very foolish to start writing scripts if the foundation upon which they are written is still fundamentally damaged. And will the only effect of this be that all Editor access must be done by clicking on an icon or alias?
--Thanks

The '2.1.2' version, which is only 404 kb, does not launch. Version 2.1.1 opens correctly and is 12.4 mb. Also, version '2.1.2' has a generic application icon (the pencil/paintbrush-A over blank document) whereas the 2.1.1 version has a script/pen icon if that helps. Both versions are, however, 2.1._ (either 2.1.1 or 2.1.2), not 2.2._, which I believe is the Leopard version that you had mentioned.
I can't say for sure that this folder/app hasn't been in my finder for a while or not as it has only been as of this week that I switched my Finder's view from the standard icon view to 'columns' view without preview icons (that's how I noticed the duplicate folders with the same names stacked on top of each other). Thanks again for all your help.
Best,

  • Can AppleScript/Mail recover from non-existent email address?

    I have an AppleScript which automatically sends HTML emails after a delay of a few days from receipt of an incoming email produced by a web form. It works well except for one issue:
    The address it sends to are picked up from the web form so I have been testing failure modes for various badly formed email addresses. Most fail gracefully with NDNs except if the domain does not exist. In this case Mail opens a dialog window with "Cannot send message using server etc". This is not good for an unattended Mac automatically processing thousands of emails a day. Mail appears not to inform AppleScript of this glitch.
    Any thoughts about a solution would be appreciated.
    I only have Tiger and Leopard but this script will eventually run on a recent Mac.

    This is a style thing, but I try to write my code so it is easy to debug.
    if (do shell script "x='" & w & "';
    z=${x##*@};
    t=`dig +short ${z%>*} MX`;
    echo ${#t}") > 0 then display dialog "send"
    It is hard to debug what is being passed to Unix.
    I'd write this something like
    [[ I have not tested this ! ]]
    [ I have not taken in Hiroto's comments ]:
    -- I write the code so as to debug it.  I would not assume the statement above would work the first time.
    -- I let the log statements in the final code.  They do not do anything outside of the script editor.
    set toUnix to  "x='" & w & "';
    z=${x##*@};
    t=`dig +short ${z%>*} MX`;
    echo ${#t}"
    log "toUnix = " & toUnix
    set result to do shell toUnix
    log "result = " & result
    -- I do not understand this statement. Shoudn't we be testing for the length of result? Or not equal to null?
    if result > 0 then
      display dialog "send"

  • How to accept a suggested keyword in Script Editor.app

    There is a single reference to Script Assistant in Apple Docs: AppleScript Language Guide. It merely state the obvious:
    “You can also turn on or off the Script Assistant, a code completion tool that can suggest
    and fill in scripting terms as you type.”
    What key do I press to accept the word being suggested? (…so much for user friendly the arrows and tab key don't work).
    AS is one of the worst learn-a-new-programming-language experiences I've had. Cut and paste two line demo code from Excel 2004 and Applescript User Guide and it fails over and over again. Sytax is weird, verbose and non-intuiative for me at least.

    The keys they chose definitely aren't very intuitive, but they are explained in the AppleScript Editor help - escape will accept the current completion, and as long as an ellipsis is next to the cursor there are multiple possibilities that can be shown by pressing option-escape (from there, a more normal up/down arrow and return select the choice).
    The scripting dictionaries (if implemented at all) are entirely up to the developer, so the terms for any given application (or application version) will usually be different than those for another application, so you would need to check the dictionary by opening it in the Script Editor to see what the exact terms and their usage are.

  • Non-existent applications in non-existent workspaces reserving app id's

    Our developers are convinced that the application id's between our dev + staging + production environments need to be synchronized. I am attempting to export applications and import them while assigning the appropriate id's. On several applications I am receiving errors when assigning the id "Application ID reserved".
    When I take a look at APEX_APPPLICATIONS, the applications with the problem ID do not actually exist. Further, the workspaces that they supposedly reside in do not exist.
    Is there a way to clean the repository up so that I don't have this problem?
    Thanks!

    possibly this should be a new thread but:
    i had 4 applications to switch application id's for.
    the 1st succeeded without a hitch.
    the last the imported successfully under the new application id but when i attempt to run the application, they generate errors of the form:
    ORA-20102: Invalid application (113); access to RLIMS_CONTEXT denied.
    Error ERR-1181 Unable to set VPD security context on page show.
    OK
    This is happening to 3 applications (113 is only one of them). RLIMS_CONTEXT is a package in the database executed by the vpd setting (Home>Application Builder>Application 113>Shared Components>Edit Security Attributes).
    Any idea what is happening?

  • Problems with AppleScript Editor.app in Snow Leopard

    I have been using the Satimage.osax scripting addition with Script Editor.app in Leopard without problem. After I upgraded to Snow Leopard, the Script Editor.app was replaced by AppleScript Editor.app in which the following one-line script
    change "," into "." in "3,1416"
    compiles without error but it gives an error when I try to run it: as if AppleScript Editor.app was not able to load the ScriptingAdditions (despite the fact that it correctly shows the dictionary for the Satimage.osax scripting addition).
    When I decided to get back the old "Script Editor.app" and use it in Snow Leopard to run the above script, I found... no error! It ran correctly.
    Anybody observed similar problems with the AppleScript Editor.app and ScriptingAdditions?
    Can anybody offer a solution other than trash the new AppleScript Editor.app and stick to the old Script Editor.app?

    Post to the AppleScript forum under OS X Technologies and send a message to Satimage.

  • Is Script Editor 2.0 latest?

    Script Editor seems to have disappeared from my machine. I've been using Smile, so I didn't miss it, but now I want to test with Script Editor before I deliver an AppleScript to a client who doesn't have need nor want Smile.
    Apple->Support->Downloads offers Script Editor 2.0 that works with Jaguar and up. Is this really the latest available?
    My client recently installed Tiger. Can I expect Script Editor 2.0 to be on his machine, or might I have to load it?
    I wonder what happened to my copy? I don't normally throw Apple apps away.

    Spyros: The folder of interest in your Applications folder is not "Script" but "AppleScript". Is that folder empty?
    Dott: I guess it would be great, but it feels weird. Apple must have a solution here somewhere.
    Let me suggest that either of you post a fresh question, as this one has already been "answered". Perhaps doing so will attract someone more knowledgable on this point.

  • Installer launches Script Editor

    I am trying to reinstall After Effects and the installer only launches Script Editor. same thing happened when I tried to install a printer package.
    This is really frustrating, any help would be gladly received.

    I am not familiar with this software. Is the installer an installer package (ie. does it have an icon that looks like an open cardboard box)?
    If not, the installer for this software may be a self contained application which may have incorrectly become associated with "Script Editor.app". Unsetting this association can be accomplished by resetting the "Launch Services" database one way or another, but as a short term workaround, try adding the extension ".app" to the installer to see if it will run.
    If the installer has the icon as described above, ignore the previous paragraph.

  • AppleScript - Writing to non-existent directories, and non-existent files..

    All,
    AppleScript - Writing to non-existent directories, and non-existent files...
    Creating directories several levels deep on the fly.
    How do we write to a file that does not exist, buried deep down in a hierarchy of directories that don't exist either...
    In trying to do this I explored two options. One used AppleScript, assisted by UNIX, which was simplicity itself, the other one used only AppleScript and was considerably more complex, and slower.

  • Applescript duplicate command runs different as an Application than from Script Editor

    Hi,
    When I run my script from the Script Editor it copies (duplicates) only the new files from one folder to the other one, as desired.  That is, when the file already exists in the destination folder, it just skips to the next one until they are all done.
    However, if I save that very same script as an Application and run it, Finder throws up a dialog box for each item telling me that it already exists and asks if I'd like to Keep Both, Stop or Replace the file.
    I can't figure out why it would run differently as a Script in Script Editor, to how it would run as an Application?  Can somebody please tell me where I'm going wrong? Or perhaps there has been a change in the way Finder and Applescript operate the Duplicate command in Yosemite?
    Interestingly, this problem has only started occurring since I updated to Yosemite.  Before that, on Mavericks, I didn't have this problem!  And I've also just tried the same thing on my other MacBook Pro that's running Mavericks and it works as intended.
    Thanks so much!

    I think the replacing parameter may be broken. The first time I run this:
    tell application "Finder"
      make new folder at desktop with properties {name:"newf"} with replacing
    end tell
    I get a new folder. The second and subsequent times, I get this:
    Unless I'm completely misunderstanding how to use the replacing parameter...

  • "Your script uses objects from a non-existent collection"

    I have a multiple page form with a barcode on each form.  I created a separate collection for each barcode.  The auto generated code looks fine and has the correct collection created, however I still get the error, Paper Forms Barcode error "Your script uses objects from a non-existent collection".
    I'm not sure what is wrong and I don't know how to fix it.  Anyone else run into this?

    You will need to create a shared folder in Dropbox, then populate that with what ever folders you need to organize the files. It appears the DropBox app,will not handle this, but you can do, it by logging in to you account via Safari. Once the folders are created, they will show up in the app. Likewise with designating the folders as shared. Anyone you wish to share with will need a Dropbox account. (using the public folder will not work since links out it are for files only, not folders. An odd restriction, but it is what it is).
    IF you have copies of the files on a PC, you will find that will be the easiest place to upload them from. If they are only in iBooks on the iPad, you will need to synch and use the file management function to copy them off. not sure if you can synch them back over to DropCopy within iTunes (never tried it).
    DEpending on your needs, a couple of apps to look into are iCab Mobile (a browser), and GoodReader (doc viewing and management app). Both integrate well with DropBox.

  • Applescript help with true or false script

    I'm in need of a applescript that will run two different scripts based on the outcome of an existing file.
    I have a folder called Status. Inside this folder is a simple text file called Good.rtf
    I would like a script that would run one or the other script base on the true or false output.  If file exists then:
    true will
    run script A
    false will
    run script B
    I have been searching the web for two days looking for something to help me get started on this and have not had much success.
    Please help me.   I really would appropriate any help or guidance. 
    Thanks....

    AppleScript calls this kind of script a "Conditional" = if this > then that
    Some templates are in MacintoshHD/Library/Scripts/Script Editor Scripts/Conditionals
    You don't need a value for "false" in binary as it is merely "not true" (else)
    if true then
        -- insert if actions here
    else
        -- insert else actions here
    end if
    If you already have your Scripts A & B working, copy>pastethem into the "insert actions here" part as appropriate

  • How do I launch AppleScript Utility

    Hello, I am working my way through the AppleScript 1-2-3 book by Soghoian and Cheeseman. Chapter 14 is on the topic AppleScript Utility and says in order to open the AppleScript Utility I can either find it in the AppleScript Folder in Applications or I can open it by choosing Open AppleScript Utility from the script menu while in AppleScript. Unfortunately AppleScript Utility is not located in the AppleScript Folder and there is no open AppleScript Utility in the AppleScript Script window. I am running SnowLeopard. I also tried running a search in finder. Does anybody know where I can locate AppleScript Utility? Thanks, George

    There is no longer an AppleScript Utility. "its pieces \[are\] scattered elsewhere"
    "AppleScript Folder In 10.5, this folder contained four distinct programs: AppleScript Utility, Example Scripts, Folder Actions Setup, and Script Editor. In 10.6, this folder is gone, its pieces scattered elsewhere. The biggie of the group, *Script Editor, can now be found in the Utilities folder, under the new name AppleScript Editor.*"
    "In 10.5, *AppleScript Utility* let you change the default script editor, enable GUI scripting, set up Folder Actions, and enable or disable the Script menu in the main menu bar. *In 10.6, you set the default script editor and control the Script menu from the General tab of the new AppleScript Editor’s Preferences panel. Folder Actions Setup is now an entry in the Finder’s contextual menu; Control-click on any folder and select Folder Actions to configure them.*"
    "The only scripting piece that seems to have vanished completely is GUI scripting control. *GUI scripting is tied in with Universal Access; you enable it by enabling access for assistive devices in the Universal Access System Preferences panel.*"
