Ideas Required...

Hi Ruedi thankd for the picture !

It always helps with GUI Scripting...

Below is the First script...this Selects the First Device in the List.
(I have only one device so will have to guess for the second script !)

Open the AppleScript "Select First device" in a new Script Editor window.

You'll need GUI Scripting turned on for this to work...

Here's the second script...you'll have to let me know if this works or if it needs tweaking...

Open the AppleScript "Select Second device" in a new Script Editor window.

To try them, compile them, then save them as an Application...then drag them to the dock, then you should have one to change it one way and one to change it the other way, if you see what I mean !

The chance are it may need some tweaking let me know !

Hi Ric

I tried both scripts directly from the script editor and as a program. I got the same result with an error message. (see attachment)

The sytem preferences panel did open in whatever condition I left the sound panel last time I used it. After that the process stopped with the error message.

Hi Ruedi,

have you turned on GUI Scripting ?, if you haven't then turn it on and try the script again.

Here you can see my universal access panel.
The checkmark in the left bottom corner translates to "Enable access for assistive devices". According to Apple Knowledge Base that means GUI scripting enabled.
Am I missing something here?

Sorry Ruedi...

Just trying to catch up after the Holidays !

No you're not missing anything if that's whats selected, then GUI scripting is enabled.

Have you got any further...

regards and Happy New Year
