Syntax errors in AppleScript for Mavericks

Question

I'm tring to select "Soundflower (2ch)" as my audio output using this script:

tell application "System Preferences"
    activate
    set the current pane to pane id "com.apple.preference.sound"
    get the name of every anchor of pane id "com.apple.preference.sound"
    reveal anchor "output" of current pane
    select (row 1 of table 1 of scroll area 1 of tab group 2 current pane)
end tell

It gives the error :

Syntax Error: Expected "," but found number

for "row 1"

What is the correct format?

I also tried:

tell application "System Preferences"
    activate
    set the current pane to pane id "com.apple.preference.sound"
    get the name of every anchor of pane id "com.apple.preference.sound"
    reveal anchor "output" of current pane
    select (row, 1 of table, 1 of "scroll area", 1 of "tab group", 2 of current pane)
end tell

but got

Syntax Error: Can’t get 1 of table. Access not allowed.

How do I do this?

Answer 1

Try:

tell application "System Preferences"
    activate
    set myPane to pane id "com.apple.preference.sound"
    set the current pane to myPane

    tell myPane
        name of every anchor -- {"output", "input", "effects"}
        reveal anchor "output"
    end tell
end tell

-- Use this script as a wrapper for GUI Scripting statements when you are confident that GUI Scripting is available and enabled or that the user knows how to enable it if necessary

activate application "System Preferences"
tell application "System Events"
    tell process "System Preferences"
        select row 1 of table 1 of scroll area 1 of tab group 1 of window 1
    end tell
end tell
