I’m pretty sure this is the intended behaviour of the simulator, to show up brittleness in developers’ filesystem code. Sounds like you’re storing absolute paths to the files at the moment? If so, that’s wrong. Apple’s perfectly entitled to place your app’s Documents folder wherever they feel like. You should be storing some sort of _relative_ paths within the folder instead. _______________________________________________ Cocoa-dev mailing list (Cocoa-dev@lists.apple.com) Please do not post admin requests or moderator comments to the list.
