My Automator app won't run on other computers

Hi,

Is there some trick I don’t know about to get my Automator app to run on other computers? I’m running OS 10.8.5 with the stock Automator version. I created a test app that only includes “Ask For Finder Items”. I saved it as a test.app and it runs fine on my computer but if I put it on a different computer, it doesn’t open. When double-clicked, it shows that quick little zoom animation but then it never opens.

Any help is appreciated,

Thanks

Hi Randy, can you post the applet here or send to me via email so I can review and test?

Thanks,
Chuck

Thanks for the reply. In making a new script to post for you I figured out the problem. I created the Automator script on OS 10.8.5 and was trying to run it on OS 10.6.8.

I recreated it on 10.6.8 and now it runs on 10.6.8 and above, even on 10.9.

Automator is backward compatible but not forward compatible.

Thanks
