They are not my Apps, and I have and I do! I’d have never opened this can of worms if I didn’t have to! I’m really surprised that there doesn’t seem to be a “Application Ready” type notification. It struck me that this is a similar problem to AppleScript: tell application “X” activate end tell I remember quite a while back that I had problems if I tried to send events to the Application too soon after the activate statement, this was usually fixed by adding a delay. These days it the above statements seem to work and I’m wondering if some code has been added to stop this from happening, and, if so if I could do something similar.
