What am I doing wrong?
Any help will be gratefully received.
At a guess, the computer's busy doing stuff (torrenting and
iTuning), and the Apple Events are timing out so that Applescript
isn't getting a response in its require time period.
Perhaps
with timeout of 600 seconds
tell application "uTorrent" to quit
end timeout
or alternatively
ignoring application responses
tell application "uTorrent" to quit
end ignoring
We have a couple of scripts triggered by iCal to start iTunes that
seem to fail regularly too... Sigh. Will have to try this with them.
Have fun,
Shay
