Here's a sample script that I save as an app on the remote machine.

Code: Select all

tell application "Google Chrome" to set URL of active tab of window 1 to "http://192.168.1.80:8176/controlpage?name=Calendar&useJS=True"
I was able to get this script to work between my two 10.12 machines.

Code: Select all

set remMachine to "eppc://TV:[email protected]"
tell application "Finder" of machine remMachine
	open file "Macintosh HD:Applications:iTunes"
end tell
I assume that means the script should work eventually to the remote 10.6 machine.
The remote machine is only running one app, Google, so I never thought much of upgrading it's OS but now it seems like something to try.

Thanks,

Carl

I suppose it's possible that there was some security changes between 10.6 and 10.12 that would prevent it from being run remotely but I don't know of any off the top of my head. If it works 10.12 to 10.12 then that tells you a lot and that upgrading will probably solve your problem.

Got an newer mini on order running 10.12. I’ll post back how it goes.

Thanks,

I don't see the plugin anymore in the Plugin Store. I'm guessing this uses AppleScript so won't work in the near future? Is that correct?

You mean this plugin on the Plugin Store?

Even if there is AppleScript it is encapsulated inside of Python calls so it's not part of the phasing out of AppleScript in Indigo.
