I use PS CS2 on a Mac, and have for years, and have never encountered this issue until just recently:

When I create a zip file of a saved Photoshop document, such as a tif or psd, then try to unzip it, I get this error message: "Unable to unarchive (file), Error 1-Operation not permitted"

I use Stuffit for compression and decompession, although decompression using Mac's native decompressor, BOMArchive, also yields no results.

Two oddities:

1) I do not have any problem compressing and decompressing gifs saved from Photoshop (this seems to be the only format not affected), and
2) If I open a file saved from Photoshop (psd, tif, etc) in Preview and save a copy of it, I can compress and decompress it with no issues.

No other files on my computer unassociated with Photoshop seem to share this issue. Older files saved from Photoshop are not affected.

Has anyone ever encountered a problem like this? I cannot tell if this is a Mac issue or a Photoshop issue, although I have just installed CS3 and the problem remains.
