Thanks. One thing I found out after 6 more hours... I was not forming my URL correctly when I typed part of it out by hand. <shoots self in head with finger> @"file://localhost/Volumes/..." instead of "@"file://Volumes/..." Somehow I didn't think that "localhost" was in the path for URLs on network volumes, I usually Applescript and use Posix paths that start with "/Volumes/..."

Er, if you don't want an icon preview, don't pass the IconMode key in the options dictionary. --Kyle Sluder _______________________________________________ Cocoa-dev mailing list (Cocoa-dev@lists.apple.com) Please do not post admin requests or moderator comments to the list.
