Suddenly ViceVersa Pro can see all the Apple dust files that are on my NAS shares !
I am mirroring data between two NAS units that sometimes are accessed by OSX as well as Win7. Up to now these .AppleDouble files were invisible (but there were .DS files). Now the units are full of .AppleDouble files that also have to be mirrored (too many to exclude). Selecting System and Hidden files non copy doesn't seem to change anything.

Is there anything I can do to exclude these ? I can't see these files in Win7 so why must I see them in ViceVersa ?

Hi, could you exclude those files with a file filter?

Yes, I hadn't thought of doing that. I made a test using a filter to exclude all .* files and it seems to work for some files but not all.
VVP seems to find some files that aren't system or hidden or able to be filtered out.
They are in a folder called .AppleDB with names like _db.001, cnid2.db, etc. and must be excluded manually. Unless it's operator error, even the .AppleDB folder can't be filtered out.
