Hi guys,

I was trying to learn Automator and its either broken, or something changed. I was following this tutorial to launch an application when a keystroke is hit:

http://www.macosxautomation.com/services/learn/tut01/index.html

And just wanted to launch an application but when I hit the keyboard command nothing happens.

It works fine inside automator, I can see the service in the Keyboard Shortcuts menu, I assign it a shortcut but nothing happens (and I've tried numerous shortcuts). Anyone have any ideas? Did something change since this tutorial?
