Guys

I have recently been using Lightroom and so far I really like it.

I am having a problem though. When I Export to my harddrive on my Macbook everthing is OK, but when I Export to my NAS (Thecus N299 with 2 x Samsung Spinpoint 500Gb drives) the files are hidden. I havent had any problems with hidden files before. If I try and copy the files from the hard drive of my Macbook to the same location of the hidden files on the NAS it tell me something along the lines of "Cannot copy files to the same location as invisible files". I used a little utility to show hidden files and there is no reason why these files should be hidden by the OS as they are normal JPEG files.

Any help would be appreciated (Google hasnt yielded anything yet)!

Thanks

A complete shot in the dark, I'll admit, but is there a chance there's an extra dot in front of the filenames when they're being exported to the NAS?

Something like .IMG_4003.JPG?

Highly unlikely but.......
Have you checked the permissions of the folder, is it set to inherit permissions from above?

Yeah, when I used the little utility to show the hidden files, there where no extra dots in front! Thats the first thing I thought off too! Weird!
