So here's the problem I'm having. In the app I'm doing, I use a

to make the copy. But unlike when using cp in terminal, somehow the
directory it's creating is a bit worse than normal. It has only
System as
owner, and no access for anyone else. drwx------ chmod 700. Of
course, this
changes when the copy is finished, but the user will be alerted as
to the
initial settings of the folder, as it appears with a great big "No
Access"
icon.
Can you suggest what I might be doing to cause this?
The initial mode for the folder will be modified by the process
umask. It sounds
like yours is 0700 or similar.
The real question might be "how do you tell the Finder to resync its
view of the
folder that's been copied", and there I fear I can't help you. Other
folks here
surely can, though.
