The Raid houses my family's iTunes repository.

My wife wanted to have our audio books available on her iPhone so I bought ABB and used it to rip the audio book.

Imagine my surprise when my wife could not find the file where I had told ABB to put it on the raid. Imagine my further surprise when I could not find the file either, even though the info for the audio book in iTunes said that the file was in the expected place.

I discovered that the file IS there, but its invisibility flag was set. I had to fix the problem by running "setfile -a v <fileName>" in the Terminal.

How can I prevent ABB from creating invisible audio book files so I don't have to fix each file after I create it?

Audiobook Builder isn't explicitly setting its output to be invisible. Can you see the output if you set your preferences to save to your Desktop folder? If so, I think the underlying issue is likely related to accessing the FreeNAS filesystem with AFP. Can you look at http://sourceforge.net/apps/phpbb/freen ... f=50&t=393 and see if the suggestions there help?

Selecting the "noadouble" option and/or deleting the .AppleDouble directory on the target directory fixed the issue. Now, when I create audiobooks, the are visible on the FreeNAS system.
