Are you overriding NSOpenSavePanelDelegate -panel:shouldEnableURL:? If so, make sure your code isn’t inadvertently disabling the folder for some reason.
Doing those steps in TextEdit works fine for me. Maybe ask the user to try the same steps with TextEdit Open dialog and see if the behavior is different? If it was a permissions issue the icon would have a 🚫 badge on it and should not appear disabled (grayed out). Hope that helps & good luck. —Rob > On Sep 5, 2023, at 12:10 PM, Gabriel Zachmann via Cocoa-dev > <cocoa-dev@lists.apple.com> wrote: > > My app loads a number of image files and displays them. > To some users, I suggest the following in order for them to loads their > photos: > >> in Finder, go to your Pictures folder; >> control-click on the icon >> Photos Library.photoslibrary, >> then select "Show Package Contents". >> Now go to the app's settings. >> First, select "Follow aliases", second >> click "Change" (folder to search); >> a folder dialog appears.
