Jan 23, 2016 at 1:09 | comment | added | Flare Cat | @user3439894 Yosemite or El Capitan... not sure which. | |
Jan 23, 2016 at 1:05 | comment | added | user3439894 | What version of OS X is on the target computer? | |
Jan 23, 2016 at 1:02 | comment | added | Flare Cat | @user3439894 I do not have access to the target computer, since it is my friends. Also, I need it to open at startup. | |
Jan 23, 2016 at 0:44 | comment | added | user3439894 | Is the target computer the one the Automator app was created on and if not why can't you just create it on the target computer? Why does it need to be an application bundle, why can't the script just be executed as mentioned in the first sentence of my first comment? | |
Jan 22, 2016 at 20:24 | comment | added | Flare Cat | @user3439894 Well, for some reason I can't edit my previous comment. The error was something like 'This type of application is not supported on this computer.' | |
Jan 22, 2016 at 20:04 | comment | added | Flare Cat | @user3439894 I tried automater in the method you described before posting this, but the app would not run on the target computer. | |

Jan 22, 2016 at 11:54 | comment | added | user3439894 | A bash script that has it execute bit set doesn't necessarily need to be placed in a bundle to be executed, simple double-click it if just in Finder or run it from Terminal. If you really want an application bundle then create it using AppleScript or Automator, the latter of which is easy. Add a Run Shell Script action and place your code in it. | |

I created a folder called myApp.app, then a sub folder called Contents, then MacOS, then a myApp shell script that contains #!/bin/bash ; say "Hi" ; exit 0 (With each of the commands on different lines, and w/o the semicolon).
