File sharing between rMBP and iMac massive bugs.
I recieved my new rMBP this week to replace my Macbook Air and join my iMac and Mac mini and immediately came across a problem.
Ive always had file sharing enabled on all computers and sent and recieved files to the iMac from the Macbook Air with ease.
However I tried to copy a file from the iMac to my rMBP and was provided with an error code (-8000 something) and was forced to relaunch finder.
I brought the Macbook Air back up (incidently I used migration assistant to copy files and settings over from MBA) and it was able to send and recieve files from iMac with no problems.
The first thing I notice is that the rMBP asks for an admin password to write to the iMac - the MBA doesn't. If I check permission settings on folders from the iMac from both machines they both have the same permissions set so I can't understand this.
Now the error code when trying to copy from rMBP to iMac doesn't appear - instead I send a file and Finder goes crazy and copies a 0 byte file with the same file name onto the iMac thousands of times until I force Finder to relaunch again.
Incidently I can send files to and from the Mac Mini without any issues - and I can as of now recieve files from the iMac ok, but not send to.
Its a very odd bug, ive tried repairing permissions on both machines and restarting both but ot no avail. Can anyone think of anything to delete/reset/try to fix this odd behavour?
MacBook Pro with Retina display, OS X Mountain Lion (10.8.3), Tried with both 10.8.2 & 10.8.3
