Ho Robert, One idea: What happens if you encapsulate the script in: tell application finder end tell Because the plain script uses the current application: tell current application do shell script "ls -t '/Users/thorstenlemke/Desktop/scans Ÿ'" --> "cadintosh.png" do shell script "ls -t '/Users/thorstenlemke/Desktop/scans Ÿ'" --> "cadintosh.png" end tell tell application "AppleScript Editor" set the clipboard to "cadintosh.png" end tell tell current application path to desktop as text --> "Master:Users:thorstenlemke:Desktop:" beep path to desktop as text --> "Master:Users:thorstenlemke:Desktop:" end tell tell application "Finder" set label index of alias "Master:Users:thorstenlemke:Desktop:scans Ÿ:" to 2 --> 2 end tell Result: 2 Thorsten > Von: Robert Poland <rpoland@usa.net> > Antworten an: <gcmac@yahoogroups.com> > Datum: Mon, 30 Apr 2012 11:48:23 -0600 > An: <gcmac@yahoogroups.com> > Betreff: Re: [gcmac] Folder Actions opening GraphicConverter > > Thorsten, > > I have the following script attached to a folder on the desktop.
