Scheduled Copies doesn' work in Japanese Language mode.

[ichiro]

I am using SD in the Japanese Language mode.
(System Prefernces -> Internationl -> Languages -> ???(Japanese))

Scheduled Copies doesn't work in Japanese Language mode.

I tried with Terminal.

-------------------------
$ crontab -l

30 21 * * 1,2,3,4,5 open file:///Users/ichiro/Library/Application\%20Support/SuperDuper\%21/Scheduled\%20Copies/Smart\%20Update\%20Frog_HD_ichiro\%20from\%20Frog\ %20HD.sdsp/Copy\%20Job.app

$ open file:///Users/ichiro/Library/Application\%20Support/SuperDuper\%21/Scheduled\%20Copies/Smart\%20Update\%20Frog_HD_ichiro\%20from\%20Frog\ %20HD.sdsp/Copy\%20Job.app
-------------------------

SD did not start.

However,It worked in English Language mode.
(System Prefernces -> Internationl -> Languages -> English)

Is there a way of making Scheduled Copies work in Japanese Language mode?

That's strange, Ichiro: we have a large number of Japanese language users and have only run into a single problem (which had to do with "back slashes" under 10.3.9).

On top of that, your drive names certainly aren't unusual at all, and have no Japanese characters in them.

Do you get any sort of error? Will SuperDuper! launch if you just try with AppleScript?

> Will SuperDuper! launch if you just try with AppleScript?
I tried Applescript in the Japanese Language mode.

/Users/ichiro/Library/Application Support/SuperDuper!/Scheduled Copies/Smart Update Frog_HD_ichiro from Frog HD.sdsp/Copy Job.applescript

1. I open "Copy Job.applescript" with ScriptEditor.
2. I click the ScriptEditor's compile button.
3. I click the ScriptEditor's run button.
4. SD! starts up.
5. Script stops in the following places.

read theSettingsFile

-----------------------------------------------
set theSettingsFile to POSIX file sessionSettingFile
open for access theSettingsFile
set mySettings to read theSettingsFile
close access theSettingsFile
----------------------------------------------

This Script was the same result in the English mode.

However,"Copy Job.app" worked with English mode without trouble.
"Copy Job.app" doesn't work in the Japanese mode.

And you get no errors in the Console, ichiro?

Right; that's failing because "path to me" doesn't work when running the script in the script editor. The real question is whether or not we can launch and run SuperDuper! when in Japanese mode.

So, what I'd suggest is -- in Terminal, in Japanese mode, with SuperDuper! not running -- running the following:

osascript
tell application "SuperDuper!" to launch

Then press Control-d. That *should* launch SuperDuper. Does it?
