When I upload multiple files, they upload just fine but a duplicate file is also being uploaded. The filename of the duplicate starts with ._ and the file size is only about 4kb but I have to manually delete them. Any suggestions on how to avoid generating these files?

Key Lime - The ._ files are AppleDouble files that are used to store metadata like extended attributes, ACLs, file flags, and resource forks.
I have the same problem you do, but I am on a windows computer looking at a box.com database that is full of AppleDouble files and I need a way to clean them out.
