What im attempting to do is put an AppleScript on a folder so that whenever I drop an image into that folder it loads up iPhoto and imports it.
I used this similar example as my starting ground : http://henrik.nyh.se/2006/12/automatically-import-and-tag-photo-booth-photos-into-iphoto
and came up with this
on adding folder items to this_folder after receiving added_items
tell application "iPhoto"
import from added_items
delay 5 -- wait for import to finish
tell (the first album whose name is "Last roll") to select photos
assign keyword string "Eye-fi"
select (the first album whose name is "Eye-fi")
end tell
end adding folder items to
Its working fine on my powerbook g4 , with iphoto 5.0.4
However, when tried on a mac book, with the latest version of iphoto it starts to import then fails with an Unreadable Files error…however there’s no files listed.
Here’s a link to a screenshot of the error message (the screenshot also shows my script)

Any Ideas?
