Apple - AppleScript app started prompting to run or quit. How can I disable this?
When you create a script in AppleScript Editor and then save it as an Application, there is an option to show a Startup Screen
, as shown in the image below:
When that option is enabled, when you launch the script in the Finder, it will first show that initial dialog before continuing.
As long as the AppleScript script-application in question wasn't saved with the Run Only
option (see the image above), you should be able to open the script in AppleScript Editor by dragging the script-application's icon onto AppleScript Editor's icon. (When a script is saved as Run Only
, AppleScript Editor won't allow you to open it to see the source code). So, if you are able to open it OK, then you could Save a copy of it and make sure the Startup Screen
option is disabled.
As for why this suddenly started happening when yesterday it didn't, I'm not sure. What version of OS X are you using?
