Just thought I’d shed some light on the issue (because googling it myself turned up less than useful results). I just had an issue where the following messages were being spewed into the output of every osascript (applescript) command:

$ osascript -e 'tell application "finder" to activate'
[000:035] MagicCam 0: Current process: osascript, Flash is loaded: no
[000:035] Error(magiccammac.cc:276): MagicCam 0: MagicCamOpen: Not an allowed process!
[000:002] MagicCam 0: Current process: osascript, Flash is loaded: no
[000:002] Error(magiccammac.cc:276): MagicCam 0: MagicCamOpen: Not an allowed process!
[000:000] MagicCam 1: Current process: osascript, Flash is loaded: no
[000:000] Error(magiccammac.cc:276): MagicCam 1: MagicCamOpen: Not an allowed process!
[000:002] MagicCam 1: Current process: osascript, Flash is loaded: no
[000:002] Error(magiccammac.cc:276): MagicCam 1: MagicCamOpen: Not an allowed process!

This has the potential to break a lot of scripts that use osascript to get information from (or about) running applications.

It turns out this is due to a google quicktime component, which I believe is related to google gears and video chat. To get rid of the error, you can delete “Google Camera Adapter 0.component” and “Google Camera Adapter 1.component” from /Library/Quicktime/. I make no claims that google video chat will work after you do this (it surely won’t), but I never use it anyways, and I’d rather not have it break anything that relies on osascript output.
