Hello, I have a problem with some files not visible in Finder. I have an external disk (Exfat) and when I connect it to Mac, some folders and files are missing in Finder. When I connect it to Windows computer, the files are there.


I connected this external disk to NAS and copied all the files to NAS. When I connect to NAS with web version, all files are there. But again, if I go to NAS with Finder, files are missing again (folders are shown this time).


This is very dangerous situation, because you never know if you see all the files or not.. I have found some others had the same problem, but no solution yet. Show hidden files does not help. Files are not hidden by mac.


I have asked some good computer experts about this problem, but nobody saw this yet.


Maybe anyone here has some idea?
