Hi all
I have a directory under the C drive, inside Documents and Settings
I named the directory Drop_30
I also opened a Window to the Folder Drop_30 on the Mac side of things.
When adding or deleting files to this dir/folder on the Win side I can not see the update on the Mac side instantly.
Only a click onto the Mac window will give me a new read-out.
Is this expected behaviour?
I have an application (Win) watching a Win Directory. Sensing a file this app performs a translation and saves the resulting file as an .xml in this directory.
I then have an Automator Watched Folder from the Mac side that picks up the .xml file and via a JS imports it into an Adobe InDesign file.
All this works on it's own but not as a workflow.
The Automator never "sees" the placed .xml file.
Can I force the Mac to see new Win files?
How do I do this?
Any hints very much appreciated
