I have a problem with the KindleUnpack/MobiUnpack drag&drop applescript. The mobi file I'd like to unpack is a custom-made non-drm book I create with kindlegen from an ePub file. The problem is that if I drag the mobi file over the MobiUnpack applescript and drop it, I can see the script opening and closing on the dock but no folder appears close to the mobi file. Isn't the folder of the unpacked book supposed to appear in the same folder the two files are? Am I doing something wrong? I was used to use those scripts while ago and maybe I forgot how to use them properly (or maybe they don't work on the last OSX?..btw I have OSX 10.8.4).

Thanks in advance to everyone. Sorry for bothering you with my issues.
My guess would be security settings. Try running the AppleScript by just double-clicking it. You should get an information dialog. If you get a warning that you can't run this application because of your security settings, hold down the control key and double-click it again. That should give you an option to open it anyway.
