That sounds like the same problem K Abtey was having. The solution  
posted should work. It is a problem with the format of the file alias  
that gets created on an Intel machine. For some reason, a PPC machine  
can't resolve it. In the one sample file I saw, only 1 item on the  
Files palette had this problem. All other items were fine, as were the  
placed graphics. I was able to notice when this happens and work  
around it, so 8.0.2 should solve the problem, although items in the  
Files palette with this problem will show up with an empty name and  
will not work.
