Hey Buddy! Not sure if somebody else has answered this because I'm not to the end of reading my emails. I always forget about automater but need to do more with it. It runs really slowly on my computer since snowleopard. Not sure why.
The way I add actions is: when you get your workflow or whatever open, there is a part of the window that says actions description split view split group and I have to interact 3 times with that--I believe its three. Then the library table pops open and I interact with that, arrow down to the main set of actions I want, stop interacting and go right to the second table which will list all the actions available for that part of the library. Then go to the one you want and press enter. Then stop interacting as much as you can and go left and you'll find your workflow with the added action there. I'm a terrible automater user but the only reason I knew this was that I've been screwing with it all afternoon--spent most of that time waiting for it to stop saying Automater busy! Still love my mac though. Jim On Jan 12, 2010, at 9:46 PM, Buddy Brannan wrote: > So I want to get started with Automater, except I have a problem.
