Help me modify Automator script for Yosemite!

[aminabot]

I have a script that has worked on previous OSs, but has recently stopped. I was wondering if someone could help make modifications to the script so it will work on Yosemite please.

The function/purpose of the script:

I have a folder with many (500+) files in it.

I have a text file with 30 filenames corresponding to the contents of the folder, each on a new line.

e.g.

A.jpg
B.jpg
C.jpg etc.

The script is to copy only these 30 files into a new folder.

This is so that I don't have to manually select and drag them over. Especially handy when I have 200 files to choose from the folder.

From what I can tell, it's having a problem matching the filenames in the text file to the filenames in the folder.

I have attached a screen grab for those that are uneasy downloading the file.

You can also download the file here: http://bit.ly/1fkvI77

Thank you in advance!

Hello and welcome.

Sorry, I haven't much experience with AppleScript/Automator myself. Maybe someone here with more experience will chime in.
You could also post this question on the site below:

MacScripter

Folks there have a lot of experience with scripting on the Mac.

Thanks for the MacScripter suggestion. I'll try there as well!

A good friend of mine wrote a small Ruby program to get this done. Solved.
