File transfers finished from external to iMac but they show progress bar on folder?

[bobright]

This is weird can somebody explain to me why when transferring a file from an external HD to my HD internal on my iMac...the file transfer is finished. Though when looking at the icon it has a progress bar with an X where I could close/delete the folder?

If I knew how to take a screenshot id show you guys

Here is what Im talking about whats this crap? Did they not get transferred over correctly?

Those bars indicate that the transfer is still in progress...I guess you could force a re-start, then check to see if the files have copied over. If you get the "File Transfer In Progress" message or similar, then Force a re-boot and check again.

Why would they show this though if the window that showed its progress finished?

its a bug in ML been there for a while ( from 10.8.0 )

reboot clears it and the file is OK

That explains it thank you

I was scared to transfer to computer then delete the file from an external. Good to know it transferred fine.
