Hi everyone,
My first post so hello, and of course its a plea for help I searched more than 230 hits over 3 days to no avail.
i’m trying to write/pillage a script to attach to a ‘watch folder’ that will then duplicate files to two separate folders that will be on either mounted network volumes or external hard drives.
heres what i’ve hacked together so far, it doesn’t work and i can’t tell why, but then i really have no coding knowledge
on adding folder items to this_folder after receiving these_items
tell application "Finder"
duplicate these_items to Folder1 without replacing
choose folder with prompt "Choose a folder to rename from"
set Folder1 to return
duplicate these_items to folder2 without replacing
choose folder with prompt "Choose a folder to rename from"
set folder2 to return
end tell
end adding folder items to
here’s how i would like it to work-
i attach a folder action (or drop folder onto) the source folder, it prompts me to designate two folders to copy the items to as they added.
any help or direction you could give me would be greatly appreciated.
