OS X Yosemite :: Automator Display Webpages Task

Dec 1, 2014

I have a workflow that opens a list of webpages into tabs. It worked beautifully on Mavericks. After upgrading to Yosemite, I get the following error for most pages in the list, though some do seem to work: You can’t open the application “Safari” because it is not responding. 

It seems that automator is submitting page calls faster than Safari can handle them, but I see no option to add a delay on the display of pages. 

The same error occurs when "Google Chrome" or "Firefox" is set as the default browser, which leads me to believe it is an issue with automator or the display webpages task, not safari.

MacBook Pro with Retina display, OS X Yosemite (10.10.1)

OS X Technologies :: Create Folders And Sort Applescript?

Mar 15, 2012

I am using a script that Jacques Rioux kindly helped me out with a couple days ago. I altered his script a little to complete a different task I needed to create a shortcut for. The script below first creates two folders (TIFF & JPEG) and then it sorts files with an extension .tif into the 'TIFF' folder and files with the extension .jpg into the folder named 'JPEG'. This works great but I would like the script to effect multiple folders. Can anyone help me add to the script so when you click it, a prompt will pop up allowing you to choose multiple folders to apply the script too? As of now it will only work on one folder at a time.

OS X Leopard :: Using Applescript To Create Auto Reply With Attachments

Oct 18, 2010

I know nothing about applescript and so have no clue how to do this. I tried googling a script but couldn't find one. I also saw similar posts on this topic, but couldn't find scripts. I am looking for a simple applescript to go into the Mail app rules to reply with an email message with an image attachment. Where I can find that script? Again, I know nothing about applescript.

OS X :: Automator - How To Create A Pdf

Nov 26, 2010

When I want to create a pdf, I click print > .pdf > save as PDF. Everything works fine.

Here's the problem though... when I click print > .pdf > Mail PDF... I get the following popup error. "The action "new Mail Message" could not be loaded because it could not be located. Try reinstalling the action."

Im pretty sure these are issues related to Automator, but through my hours of trolling the web, I havn't found anyplace to download automator actions.

Is there a way to restore automator actions and/or filters?

OS X :: Automator Save-as Plugin Not Working - How To Create A Workflow

Jan 2, 2009

I am new to automator. I'm working on a Powerbook G4, in osx.4.11, and I'm trying to save a workflow as a plug-in in automator. When I click file>save as plug-in, nothing happens. I get no pop-up, and no plug-in is saved. I've tried this with various workflows.

I'm also having trouble adding actions to the workspace (even ones that make sense to add, i.e. I am following a tutorial to create a workflow that others have made before).

OS X V10.4 :: Create A Script That Will Change The Language From English (US) To English (UK) In Applescript?

Apr 16, 2012

I have a around 45 OS X 10.4.11 clients in a school that I have recently installed iWorks 09 on and through this I have realised that the clients language is set to English (US) which is causing some issues in the spell checker.  I don't fancy changing the language on all of them manually so I was wondering if it was possible to write a script in AppleScript that would do this for me..

OS X V10.6 Snow Leopard :: Automator Script To Create A "today's" /dated/ Folder?

Mar 28, 2012

i tried to see if anyone was able to create something like this and i think that the automator script that i got only created a folder with /todays/ date. what i am hoping for is a script that will /constantly/ update the name of the folder to todays date. the reason i need this is that if i have one of these in my documents folder it allows me to easily see /when/ the last successful backup occurred on my external drives. it is a really nice comfort to see this easily and know quickly that the backup was successful.

Applications :: Automator Actions Not Working In ITunes 10?

Sep 2, 2010

I really like iTunes 10. Clean, uncluttered, easily usable. BUT I have an automator action set for 7:30am every day as an alarm to wake me. This action plays a playlist in iTunes called "morning alarm" and has worked for months beautifully. When I loaded the action in Automator I got an error to say that the "play iTunes playlist" action, the auto iPhone sync action and set iTune volume actions we no longer valid. Those actions appear not to exist any longer in iTunes 10. Has anyone else had similar problems? Did you get a work-around?

Applications :: Can Automator Detect/delete Duplicate Files - Clean An Itunes Library?

Mar 8, 2009

Im new to the Mac operating system. I am proficient on a PC, but Macs have always captivated my attention. I finally gave into the Macbook. Anyways ---

The Automator application seems phenomenal in theory I just haven't learned all the ins and outs yet, but i see the concept that it was designed for (Jobs = Genius). Long story short I was streaming all of my music over from my PC and it got interrupted twice. I kept streaming to the same folder but it never prompted me to replace existing files of the same name. So I figured it would do it automatically. To my dismay that wasn't the case at all. I now have 9,000 songs and at least 4,000 of which are duplicates/Triplets. I wanted to know if there was some way to streamline the process of deleting and purging all these files out of my Music Folder/Itunes Library, Via the Automator program or any other program you know of.

ITunes :: Create Audio From Own DVD To It?

Apr 7, 2012

I would be able to record some DVDs from home video footage of my kids' singing performances and be able to put the DVD into my iMac and just create MP3s of the audio for my iTunes. I have never used my iTunes for things like videos.  I am only interested in making audio MP3s.  Do I have to use iMovie to do this?  Just checking before I bother to go buy a DVD recorder. Unless there's some other way to get the audio into my iMac?

May 30, 2012

I have my iPad connected to my iMac. In iTunes I am trying to add new playlist to the iPad (on the Mac). The problem is my new playlist option in the File drop down list is grayed out.
