Hi Alan.He,

Thanks for reminding for the debugger output. Below the error I’m getting this back from the debugger:

[15:41:07.383] ERROR: Airdrop[Run Script] /Users/patrick/Library/Caches/com.runningwithcrayons.Alfred/Workflow Scripts/9FE38F2A-0AA7-43CE-BD03-18619326CFDF:78:119: execution error: System Events got an error: button 1 or toolbar 1 or window 1 of process "Finder" whose description = "Share" could not be requested. Invalid index. (-1719)

Hope you can tell what’s going wrong?

Thanks in advance!

Hi,

I changed the system language to English. But unfortunately I’m getting the same error message.

[17:55:03.740] ERROR: Airdrop[Run Script] /Users/patrick/Library/Caches/com.runningwithcrayons.Alfred/Workflow Scripts/4E370D6A-D5AB-45CB-B14A-5B7BB1CC81CE:78:119: execution error: System Events got an error: Can’t get button 1 of toolbar 1 of window 1 of process "Finder" whose description = "Share". Invalid index. (-1719) I’m not getting a UI menu.

Is there anything else what I can check to fix this?

Is it convenient to provide a screen recording?

Thanks for getting back to me. I tried a different computer and it has the same issue and debugger output.

Attached is the screen recording.

I haven't upgraded my new system at the moment, so I can't test verify the issue.
The workflow relies on the UI, so the cause of the problem should be here.

Would love some movement on this. Doesn't work for me either.

alanhe421 commented 1 year ago

update

root cause is os ui change.

vanwoods commented 1 year ago

Hi,

Thanks for the feedback. What can I do to fix this, I don't get it?

@augusl

for Ventura/Monterey/Sonoma User, just have a try. download the latest workflow.

I found that the AppleScript documentation is too scarce. I really can't solve the more advanced menu automation operations, so I'm adopting a compromise solution here.

You need to manually drag and drop AirDrop into the toolbar. This way, the workflow can be operated conveniently. For specific setup instructions, please refer to the documentation I have posted.

The official workflow is also available now.
