Shon:

If this honestly doesn't work, I'd definitely consider it a bug. Nowhere in the documentation is there anything saying it wouldn't. This discussion has been here long enough (and grown enough) that if it were a simple misunderstanding *someone* should've noticed and said so by now. :-)

Before reporting it, however, it might be advantageous to try various system maintenance routines such as Repair Permissions, check for disk problems, etc. It's a long shot but stranger things have happened ...

  If that doesn't do it, then off to radardweb with it.

It will also not let me copy individual files or specific directories
from the troublesome volume, using copyPath.  I have continued to try
various combinations of individual files and directories, sources and
destinations in my home folder, not in my home folder.

Interestingly, I can use the troublesome volume as a destination and
it works.  I also tried puttng a folder under /Volumes (not mounted or
linked, actually copied to /Volumes) and that works as a source.

The *only* problem I'm seeing is sourcing *anything* from anything
mounted under /Volumes.

Hardcoding a source path proved effective.  I chose a source and

perfectly!  I chose a source path outside of my home directory and it
continued to work.

I have a CD mounted in my CD-ROM drive since ... oh, sometime last
week. I decided to hardcode the CD-ROM path next. I started the app,
inserted the USB disk and ... it failed to copy from the CD-ROM. I
can, of course, copy from the CD-ROM manually (Finder, Terminal...).


So, it seems to be limited to /Volumes.

So, it does not let you copy a folder contained in the troublesome volume to
some path in your home directory?
Or does it only have problems when you ask it to operate on the root of the
volume?
What about individual files on the volume?


Can anyone suggest that this is NOT a bug?
