File.rename on Mac :/

guys... have code, it works on windows perfectly renaming files.

i have tried make work on mac couldn't.

 

is doesn't display error / alert.

what doing wrong, why doesn't work on mac? :/

many in advanced x)

 var filenameext = "sst"; var mainpath = folder.desktop + "/"; var fullpath = folder.desktop + "/new files/"; var f = file(mainpath + "ext.svg"); if (f.exists) {     f.rename(fullpath + filenameext + ".svg"); };  

that works correctly on windows?

 

 /* both of below should work fine on os x, problem in line: f.rename(fullpath + filenameext + ".svg"); // path reference not needed, 'f' declares */  // option 1: var filenameext = "sst"; var mainpath = folder.desktop + "/"; // assumes svg file on desktop var f = file(mainpath + "ext.svg"); if (f.exists) {     f.rename(filenameext + ".svg"); // error here, path reference not needed, 'f' declares } else {     alert(f+ " not found"); }  // option 2: var filenameext = "sst"; var fullpath = folder.desktop + "/new files/"; // assumes svg file on desktop, in folder 'new files' var f = file(fullpath + "ext.svg"); if (f.exists) {     f.rename(filenameext + ".svg"); // error here, path reference not needed, 'f' declares } else {     alert(f+ " not found"); }
