   I have the same problem. I know this is an old post but I cannot find the answer anywhere. I am using Mac OS 10.4.11 and just downloaded the automator loop utility today. I quits immediately and does not put a droplet on the desktop. Thanks for any help

   I have tried the tip of Sentinel indicated as:

   “I just added a “Run Workflow” to the end of the workflow I wanted to repeat and told it to run itself again. The only thing with this is that you have to stop it manually.”

   But in my case, it only duplicated three times in a row. This is what I did:

   1. Drag a Folder to Automator (I want to duplicate such folder again and again until the disk is full).

   2. Drag “Duplicate Finder Items”.

   3. Drag “Automator/Run Workflow”, selecting the “Finder/Duplicate Finder Items” as workflow.

   If I run it, the folder is duplicated three times in a row and then I get the error:

   “The file does not appear to contain a valid workflow document”

   How to “tell it to run itself” again and again until the disk is full? In other words, how to make it duplicate for ever until the disk is full?

   Thanks.

   While the 30 second limitation is a problem, you can achieve the same results by not using “Automator Loop Utility” at all.

   I just added a “Run Workflow” to the end of the workflow I wanted to repeat and told it to run itself again. The only thing with this is that you have to stop it manually.

   Hope this helps!
