Hi Shaley.
Sorry about the delay on answering this.
I just noticed your post. For some reason I am not getting any emails of the replys, althought I made a tick on the box. I am just a user. My experience of UNIX systems is from the nineties, when Silicon Graphics was the hottest system on the market. So I have no idea what is causing this problem. I just read from somewhere about the xattr -cr command. It has now worked two times with Bforastists.
Hopefully you can fix the problem.
