What I am trying to do is very simple. I have a MacBook Pro and a HP Vista Desktop. The desktop acts as media server/primary computer. When I download music or movies and such, it goes there first. I would like to create an Automator workflow to copy anything that has changed since the last time into the music folder on my mac. File sharing is not the issue. One thing I came up with at first ended up copying all the music stuff over correctly, except that the albums for each artist got copied out to the music folder right next to the artists while the artists already had the albums in them. I just need to find a way to automatically copy any new files over to the laptop from the desktop. I could do it manually, but this is why we have the scripts and Automator and such, isn’t it? I have 0 experience with applescript and a little with automator, I know how to sort of make it work. Other than that I am very computer literate in Windows and decently good enough in Mac. The Mac is running OS 10.5 on an Intel Core 2 Duo if that makes a difference.
