Hello,

I'm hoping someone can help me confirm the source of a problem I have been having. I use the source URL condition to select files for renaming. My workflow is to download a file and place it in a dropbox folder on my Macbook Air. Dropbox then replicates it to a Mac Mini I have which runs Hazel, and renames then moves the file out of my dropbox folder into a folder structure on my Mac mini. It seems that if I download the file on my Macbook Air somewhere in the process of dropbox syncing it to the other system it loses the source URL information. Does anyone else experience this when syncing files with Drop Box? When I download it on my Mac Mini it seems to retain it and process it correctly. I'm trying to determine if it is something on my Macbook Air or Dropbox sync process.

Thanks in advance,
Tim

Source URL uses the "Where from" metadata. It's quite possible DropBox doesn't sync this. You can confirm this by doing "Get Info" on the file before and after, checking the "Where from" fields.
