Enable Access For Assistive Devices And Applications El Capitan

How can enable the root user in OSX 10.11 El Capitan. Posted on Nov 2, 2015 12:51 AM. Reply I have this question too. Launch the built-in Terminal application in any one of the following ways: ☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.) ☞ In the Finder, select Go▹Utilitiesfrom the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. Enable Accessibility on Mac OS X 10.9 Mavericks. Open System Preferences Security & Privacy. Click the Privacy tab. Select Accessibility from the list. Click the lock icon to make changes. Check the box next to any Mizage apps (Divvy, ShortStop, etc) and System Events, if present.

I am trying to update an AppleScript that was in the Safari Services v1.3 group of Services. It is named Currency Converter.

Here is description:

The selected numeric value in Safari will be entered in the Calculator application and the currency conversion sheet activated. Requires support for assistive devices be enabled in the Universal Access preference pane. Scope: Selected text in Safari

Here is a snippet of code that I am trying to work with:

on GUIScripting_status()

-- check to see if assistive devices is enabled

tellapplication 'System Events'

set UI_enabled to UI elements enabled

endtell

if UI_enabled isfalsethen

run script 'tell application 'System Preferences'

activate

set current pane to pane id 'com.apple.preference.universalaccess'

display dialog 'This script utilizes the built-in Graphic User Interface Scripting architecture of Mac OS X which is currently disabled.' & return & return & 'You can activate GUI Scripting by selecting the checkbox “Enable access for assistive devices” in the Universal Access preference pane.' with icon 1 buttons {'Cancel'} default button 1

end tell'

endif

return UI_enabled

end GUIScripting_status


I am using OS X 10.11.4 beta and the System Preferences that this script used have been changed, this I know, so can someone please help me modify the code to work with El Capitan 10.11.4?
