The convert notes AppleScript command does work for me. And nothing really
changed. Are you sure the file does have these types of notes?
The highlightNote should be a list, I think, and it looks rather convoluted.
Also did you set the myFile and skimNotes variables properly?
Does the Convert Note action work in the app?
