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?
