Conflicted copies that don't show up locally with Mac .rtfd files created with TextEdit.
I can create a .rtfd file with TextEdit by simply adding a graphic to a text file. TextEdit changes the extension to .rtfd. I have no trouble saving and opening these files in a DropBox folder in the...
On the Mac, I can show/hide hidden files by pressing Command + Shift + . in the Finder. Doing so does not reveal the hidden RTFD file.
I have no other problem files or directories in the Mac Finder. What I have described above is a case of DropBox not showing a RTFD file in the Mac Finder under certain circumstances. The file exists in DropBox in the cloud; it is simply a matter that DropBox is not syncing the file back to the Mac Finder.
DropBox clearly has a problem with a file that consists of a Mac package, such an RTFD file. As illustrated above, if I download the RTFD file from the cloud, it comes in as a .rar file that must be decompressed and the decompressed file does not have the correct name.
