Hi, get this one:
property x : choose folder
tell application "Finder" to open items of x
Instructions:
1) open the script in Script Editor and save it in the Script- menu -
folder (path: home/Library/Scripts/)
2) This script will you ask 2 times for saving:
a) to memorize the path of your folder (Work)
b) to confirm the path of your folder (Work)
to change the path, add a white space after the last charcter of last
line and save !
If the amount and the size of files is big (50 MB) insert a timeout
command, like:
with timeout of 300 seconds
tell application "Finder" to open items of x
end timeout
Good work!
