Apple Releases Automator 1.0.1

[Apple](http://www.apple.com/) has released Automator 1.0.1 today, as part of the OS X Tiger [10.4.2 update](http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=301722). These actions have been updated: *Add Files to Playlist, Add Songs to Playlist, Import Photos into iPhoto, New Mail Message* and *Run Shell Script.*

The Automator update to 1.0.1 specifically addresses these issues:

- Fixed debugging issue with AppleScript and Automator actions.
- Automator Playlist fix - *This is for all those iTunes workflows where Automator would beachball when trying to access the playlists.*
- Automator iPhoto fix - *Same as above, iPhoto workflows that tried to access albums would cause Automator to beachball.*
- Automator shell script fix
- Automator new Mail message fix - *"Send Outgoing Messages" didn't work; this is corrected.*

If you have any observations regarding this update, both in terms of the listed fixes as well as potentially un-documented ones, let us know here or in the [forums](http://forums.automatorworld.com/).

  1. How do you schedule an iTunes playlist to play at a certain time? I’m running a college radio station and need to schedule certain genre based playlists to play at hour intervals, back-to-back. Also, I need to be able to program this 24 hours in advance. Any ideas? I appreciate it.
