Re: Calling Apple Script Experts
I am actually very surprised that I have received 0 responses to this. I thought sure that there would be a ton of people that were good with Applescript. Oh well, thank you to each of you that read it and tried to figure things out. On Oct 28, 2010, at 9:41 AM, Jason Brown wrote: I have a problem that I need some help with. I have an apple script that I compile into an application that checks the server it is attempting to connect to and makes sure the drives stay mapped. I will include the script as well as the tag lines of where I obtained the original script that I modified for my purposes for you to look at. The problem that I am having is that as of 10.5 and 10.6, if a server is rebooted or even if the machine is rebooted, there is a chance that it will create a folder with the servers share name. For example on these machines they mount Vol1, Vol2 and Onevision2 shares. If Vol1 and Vol2 get disconnected which are both on the same server, one or both could be mounted as Vol1-1 and Vol2-1 for example because an empty folder of the name of the share gets deposited in /Volumes. I have an idea of how to correct this, but I am unsure as to how exactly it would be best to implement it into the script. I want it as some form of sanity check before it attempts to mount the drive. Check for the folder and delete it and maybe have it check if the drive is mounted under anything but its real name and then unmount it and let the script re-mount it. The line I am looking at implementing, and I hope I have it right is below. -- if (count items) of Vol1 is 0 or ((count items) of Vol1 is 1 and name of item 1 of Vol1 is .DS_Store) then delete Vol1 -- I am uncertain how or where to put this into place with the script and the dismount remount commands I am completely unsure of.

Re: Dead Drive? - Group Reply.
OK - this drive has jumpers. As had the old one. In a iMac G5. What about jumper settings? OK. That solves that probem. ;-) Any other idea? Can the drive be too big for the machine to handle? Probably not. How about the cable ... is that new? a good one? Connected well at both ends ... didn't come loose when the machine was shut? Cable looks fine. Conects well. Can one test it in one way or another? I would also check to see if the iMac G5 has a SMU you can reset?? Tried it. Found the small button on the keyboard. No luck. only one of the pins had snapped where the connector sitts on the main board but that was enough to stop the drive being seen at all. The pins on the drive looks as the pins on the old drive. OK. I say, 1) The old drive didn't really have issues. Rather the problem is someplace else such as a bad SATA cable or a poorly seated connector. Or maybe even something is wrong on the G5's mainboard. Have you tried any type of diagnostic program? What kind of diagnostics cen be used to figure out if the mainboard is toast? Try hooking it up to another computer or hook it up through an external case.

Re: Mac OS X Lion Is a Must-Have: 10 Reasons Why
- Original Message From: Dan dantear...@gmail.com Raise your hand if you used the link instead of reading the email! ya right. Here's my hand. I did not see the article at the end of the email; did see the link and went directly to the article. Another click for the ad guys. I would have been more concerned of taking up too much wordage and wasted bandwidth when a link was all that was needed. But hey, you are right in defending copyright laws, though they are somewhat vague and untested. These days someone may end up in the county jail for jay walking. So are the times.

Giving the reference URL and title of the item is the legal and acceptable method. Also, it reduces bandwidth on the list. There remains one question that begs resolution.
