Guess you'd have to do like this do shell script "cp /System/Library/CoreServices/Setup_Assistant.app/Contents/Resources/TransitionSection.bundle/Contents/Resources/intro-sound.mp3 Desktop" with Administrators privilege You only need to use "-r" when the item you'd want to copy in recursive (e.g. directory with subfolders item's) Link to comment https://www.insanelymac.com/forum/topic/161165-shell-scripting-help/#findComment-1127865 Share on other sites More sharing options...
