Hello every one,

the issue that i am able to open a .ai file from a shared location in mac.

"ex path: smb: //10.7.8.9/scan/skpuldanda/cheshire Cat.ai "

But when i save it on an extension the path is converted to "/Volumes/Scan/SKPULDANDA/Cheshire Cat [Converted].ai". saved  successfully. again when i want to open the same file by clicking on the file which is saved on the extension it should open on the illustrator by  using the path  with which it has saved. but it raising an exception path not found. even i tried opening the by using the smb path.

Someone please update me with solution

Correct answer Trevor:

Try this for starters

Log the path that you receive on the jsx end from the js ext.

Use File.openDialog().fsName and navigate to the file you want on the remote server.

Compare the 2 paths, this is a starting point.
