->> I have been ingesting my disks into PM and just recently a lot more files are added to my folder. Before, there were 2-3 extra index or list files, besides the image files. Now when I ingest, I get about 32 more non-image files (qlist, store, journalexclusion, etc) Anybody know why and how to stop this?
Thanks,

->> Kirk from camerabits has contacted me, but we have not figured out the issue yet. I'll post to the forum as well.

->> Here's an update to this thread. Camerabits contacted me and we figured out the issue. This is quoted from an email:
"The extra files you were getting during Ingest are created by Mac OS X 10.5.x when it keeps track of changes made to the disk. Versions of Photo Mechanic older than 4.5.3.1 were created before Leopard was released and we did not know that the OS was going to start creating these files. Version 4.5.3.2 is the most current version of Photo Mechanic at this time and it should skip these OS created files and folders."
Thanks Kirk at Camerabits.
Looks like I'll be downloading the latest version of PM.
