PermissionDeniedException behavior in Mac OSX Finder

OSX Finder shows a bit unwanted behavior when it comes to handling permission issues. On Windows, everything works correctly, OSX 10.6.x has an issue with moving files, OSX 10.7.x. shows issues when moving, renaming and deleting files. Note that I'm not sure if this issue is related to Adobe Drive or to how OSX works internally.
Moving files - an issue with 10.6.x and 10.7.x
When a user moves files to a location where they don't not have permissions to create a file, OSX Finder shows a system login dialog where you can enter your OSX username and password. After entering the credentials (which aren't the credentials of the DAM server) nothing happens, the file stays in it's original location and no error is shown to the user.
In this case I would expect to get an error dialog which tells the user it doesn't have permissions to move the file. The OSX login dialog doesn't provide anything in this case as it doesn't allow you to login as a different Drive user.
Error in the AD log when moving files

Deleting files - an issue with 10.7.x
When a user tries to remove a file it doesn't have permission to, it first shows a confirmation dialog, then a login dialog, see the move issue. After entering the credentials it shows an error dialog which tells that the file cannot be deleted. This is already better than the move behavior, only the login dialog is not necessary.
Renaming files - an issue with 10.7.x
When a user tries to rename a file it doesn't have permission to, it first shows a login dialog, see the move issue. After entering the credentials it shows an error which tells that the file cannot be renamed.

Mac Dreamweaver lists files in alphabetical order by
default... regardless of what type it is, folders included. It is
by no mean random, so I'm not sure what to tell you is going on.
Some people prefer the Windows method of all the folders at the
top, but alphabetical is just as organized.

How to implement Mac OSX Finder color labels

Is it possible to support color labels for files and folders in Mac OSX Finder in a custom connector? It would be nice to implement this in our connector as it's a common way for users to do some lightweight status workflow.
If it's possible, a code sample would be really helpful.

CMIS connector save behavior on Mac OSX question

I've been working on implementing a CMIS compliant server and have a question about the behavior of Adobe Drive when saving files on Mac OSX. When an application saves a file to the network drive, Adobe Drive is sending a request to create a folder named "(A Document Being Saved By ...)" as part of the process. This only occurs on OSX and not on Windows.
Since a lot of the CMIS connector's testing seemed to be against Alfresco, I took at look at how Alfresco Handles the situation. Alfresco seems to work around this annoyance by allowing the folder creation but automatically removes the folder in short order. While I could implement similar behavior, I am trying to avoid as much client specific handling as possible.
Is this folder creation absolutely necessary on Adobe Drive's part?

Hello,
The folder creation request depends on the specific application. If an document-based application in Mac OS X uses NSDocumentController to operate the document, a temporary folder "(A Document Being Saved by xxx)" will be created, this is the normal document saving process. If the document is saved, the temp folder will be deleted soon by this application. Please see this link: http://developer.apple.com/library/mac/#documentation/Cocoa/Conceptual/Documents/Articles/ ObjectInteractions.html as reference.
So the folder create request from Adobe Drive is normal for this scenario, and after saving the document into the mounted drive by Adobe Drive, the delete request(deleting this temp folder) will be sent from Adobe Drive. I think Alfresco doesn't provide any workaround for this. For Alfresco server, it just handles the temp folder creation and deleting as the same as the normal folder.
Hope this helps.
Thanks,
Zhiqiang

I am running Mac OSx Lion 10.7.2. My problem is I can't search on an external network server for a file with the finder toolbar anymore. Nothing shows up and it will not search. I was able to in snow-leopard and am no longer able to w. Lion. Suggestions?

I am running Mac OSx Lion 10.7.2.
My issue is that I am not able to run a search in the finder toolabar on a network server. No files show up nor does it search on the server anymore. I was able to run the search in snow-leopard and am no longer able to do so with Lion. Is there a preference I can change or some kind of app or program I can download that will help me with this issue? This is extremely problematic for me as I am searching for files all day everyday. Thank you!

Hello,
It isn't the fw in Network you want o use or look at, that's for something completely different.
My first suspect is the Power Adapter on the LaCie has gone.
At the Apple Icon at top left>About this Mac, then click on More Info, then click on Hardware>Firewire, what is listed there?
Reset the Firewire bus
If your Firewire or USB isn't recognizing any device. A solution which has worked for some whose hard drive became invisible in 10.4 was simply to follow these four steps to reset the Firewire/USB bus:
1. Shut the machine down.
2. UNPLUG the power lead to the computer and any firewire/USB drive or devices.
3. leave it for 10 minutes.
4. Connect back up and reboot.

You are welcome, ameronweb.
To elaborate a bit, you may come across offers of a new/unopened/unregistered version, which is the simplest case (you would need a guarantee). Other cases require much detailed information (and a guarantee).
If upgrading to 10.6.8 or higher is an option, you could use CS6.

Where can I find a retail copy of MAC OSX Snowleopard, that has all the drivers, for both desktop and Laptops?

Where can I find a retail copy of MAC OSX Snowleopard, that has all the drivers, for both desktop and Laptops?

No. 10.6.3 was the last retail release of Snow Leopard. Download the 10.6.8 Combo updater and put it on a flash drive to make it easier to install the largest part of the update.
Also, don't push the same disk image of SL to your Macs unless they are exactly the same model as it was originally installed on. The wrong hardware drivers will otherwise be in use.

DOES ANYONE KNOW HOW TO GET THE DOWNLOAD MAC OSX 10.7.0 BECAUSE NO MATTER HOW MUCH I TRY I CANT FIND IT

AS mentioned, you need 10.6.8 & the App Store first, it's not available any other way, & 10.7 instead of 10.8 requires a call to Apple...
Snow Leopard/10.6.x Requirements...
General requirements
   * Mac computer with an Intel processor
    * 1GB of memory (I say 4GB at least, more if you can afford it)
    * 5GB of available disk space (I say 30GB at least)
    * DVD drive for installation
    * Some features require a compatible Internet service provider; fees may apply.
    * Some features require Apple’s MobileMe service; fees and terms apply.
Which apps work with Mac OS X 10.6?...
http://snowleopard.wikidot.com/
It's been pulled from the online store & Apple Stores, so you have to call Apple to buy it, last I heard.
Buy Snow Leopard > http://store.apple.com/us/product/MC573/mac-os-x-106-snow-leopard
Call Apple Sales...in the US: 1-800-MY-APPLE. Or Support... 1-800-275-2273

I have Mac OSX snow leopard , which I think is OSX10.6.8. I did as I was told and migrated to icloud having advised that not all devices were up to the Lion. I now find that the mobile phone receives the emails and so does the ipad, but not my desktoptop. I have received an email from apple saying I would be able to receive the emails. Why cant I? What do I have to do ? Surely it is not necessary to buy another upgrade???

10.7.2 is required for full iCloud facilities, but you can still use your email. In theory you should be able to access your email in Mail at the same server settings, but this hasn't worked for everyone: you can set Mail up manually to access your iCloud email:
Entering iCloud email settings manually in Snow Leopard or Leopard
Once migrated, your mail will also be available at http://icloud.com

I downloaded Firefox 4 onto my PowerPC G4 1.67GHz running Mac OSX 10.5.6. When I try to open it I get error message You cannot open the application "Firefox" because it is not supported on this architecture. I can't find my Firefox 3.6.16 I'm on Safari.

Use Tony's suggestion. I am running it right now and it is awesome. I love Mozilla but they basically screwed all of those older Macs over. Come on Mozilla. These Macs still work, and there are plenty of people with them out there.

How can I find a PDF plug in for Firefox 5 running on Mac OSX (10.6)

I recently installed an Update and received a message that my PDF Plug In for Firefox would be disabled, but that when the Update had been installed the Plug in would be enabled. This has not happened.
I am running Firefox 5 on Mac OSX (10.6)

I've tried the download three times. It reports that installation was successful, but when I use Firefox I still get only an option to download the .pdf; I still can't read it within the browser. This fix WAS for Firefox 5.0, right?

Where to find Mac OSX 10.5 SLA?

Hi guys,
I'm looking for the mac osx 10.5 eula / sla, you know the license agreement you have to accept when you install this os. Unfortunately I don't have a 10.5 installation cd anymore, the manual pdfs provided on the apple support page appear to be corrupt or broke ( http://manuals.info.apple.com/en_US/Welcome_to_Leopard.pdf, http://manuals.info.apple.com/en_US/Leopard_Install-Setup.pdf) and searching the Internet didn't help me out as well. So my question is if somebody still has an installation CD or a copy of the agreement. It would be incredible helpful if somebody could upload this agreement, or if apple would re-upload their pdf's (at least if they contain the eula).
Thanks,
Fritz
