Title: When copying files via mac they go to Trashbox
Post by: spenceh on July 24, 2009, 03:11:05 PM
   

After my change from RAID0 to RAID1 (see previous post), I found that I had lost the folder called Shared.  I recreated it in Shared Folders GUI, but when I copy items via a mac into the new share, the items 'disappear'.  Looking at it via a PC, I can see a folder (hidden on the mac) called Trashbox and in it are the files I had copied that had 'disappeared'.  This has only happened with the newly created share.  Arghhhhhh 

 

Any ideas?

I'm not a Mac person, but try re-creating the share again, and try checking all the boxes except Backup and FTP.  Then, re-map it on the Mac and try again.

 

Am curious to see if that does the job.

   Tried what you said...restarted everything too.  The Trashbox appeared as a folder on my mac, however if I tried to create any new folders in the Shared, they still disappear!  Have also reformatted the drive to start again - but it does the same.  Getting very frustrated with it now and the Buffalo email help 'service' is pretty useless.  It maybe time to put it back in its box and send it back....

what happens if you make a new share w/ a new/different name? Same issue?
