The script below (saved as application bundle) works fine under 10.4.11. Drag the files you want to rename into the upper right of the Automator window. Click on 'Files & Folders' in the first column, inside 'Library'. Ultimately, the automated process would output the list of all files, minus their file extension name into a text file. You can click on it in Launchpad, or double click on it in the Applications folder. Each of these sub-folders contain a varying number of files with their respective file extension (.mov.
I guess the compatibility issue is due to the different implementations of Script menu and the different behaviours of AppleScript Runner (post-10.5) or System Events (pre-10.5) per OSes. I would like to have Automator parse thru a given folder, which is subdivided in dozens of folders. I would only add that, depending on what you are doing, a smart folder in Finder may also be a. The code works fine under 10.5.8 as well. As others have indicated, Automator and Hazel work well. Tell application "System Events" to keystroke "hello" Tell application "System Events" to get bundle identifier of process 1 whose frontmost is true The bundle identifier is safer than name because application's executable name is not necessarily equal to the package name minus extension.
