Q: I accidentally put all my pictures on my Desktop HELP!!!!
Hi, while trying to export my iPhoto onto an external hard-drive I accidentally put my 5,000+ photos and videos on my desktop and it is now slow to a crawl, unable to do much. The spinning wheel is almost constantly there, even in safe-mode. I was doing this to update it safely to the latest OSX. Right now the iMac is running 10.8.6. Help me please!
iMac, Mac OS X (10.6.8)

Run it again, repeating through jpeg, gif, and png where jpg is in the script. If none of them move the files off, use:
do shell script "mv ~/Desktop ~/Desktop_old; mkdir -p ~/Desktop"
