I have a folder action which watches a folder and copies new files added to it to anther folder. Whenever a file activates it, the script interrupts activities I may be in the midst of while it copies the file. Is there any way to remedy this abhorrent behavior of the folder action? Here’s the code:
on adding folder items to theFolder after receiving theItems
repeat with anItem in theItems
tell application "Finder" to duplicate anItem to folder "Storage:temp:" without replacing
end repeat
end adding folder items to
