I did reinstall. I'm still having the same problem with Appscript
0.20, Snow Leopard's Python 2.6.1

The issue happens in a different place each time, but the error looks like this:

  File "build/bdist.macosx-10.6-universal/egg/appscript/reference.py",
line 504, in __call__
appscript.reference.CommandError: Command failed:
		OSERROR: -1712
		MESSAGE: Apple event timed out.
		COMMAND: app(u'/Applications/iTunes.app').sources.ID(41).library_playlists.ID(25438).file_tracks.ID(32305).played_count.get()
