Hi there,


I'm getting an error when I try to run this from applescript "Can't make current application into type string." It work fine from the terminal but not from applescript, here is the script


do shell script
"rsync -aE --delete ~/backup_test /Volumes/JKEENAN/backup || echo -n"


Any advice would be great


Cheers


Jack

    I experienced the same error message when I tried the applescript.



    What you need to do is type the script on the same line without any line breaks and it will work fine.



    Cheers
