looping:

Code:
set looping to true
repeat while looping is true
	-- Do the thing.
	if the condition is true then set looping to false
end repeat

to delay use "delay x" where x is an integer in seconds.

Usually the best way of waiting is to use an idle handler. There is some nice documentation on this out there. 'delay' is only for short waits... as AppleScript tends to hog the processor.

is there a way to set its location? its trying to load another application of the same thing but i want a it to be loaded off the different place

Not sure from your question what it is you are attempting to do. Do you have the same application stored in two different places on your HD and want to have an applescript access/use/launch only one of the two? If so, use the path to the desired app when referring to it in your script.

There is applescript code ' using terms from' that keeps the focus on one app when there may be different versions of this app installed. If this is relevant to your situation and you want more info, be glad to try to help.
