I have exactly same issue :) With my testing code, I am pretty sure that Finder 
supports promised
Drag/drop, but does not support promised file copy/paste. With 
NSFilenamePboardType, Finder
should be able to do copy/paste. Did you call  [pboard 
setPropertyList:forType:] after put data
into pasteboard? Can you paste your code here?
