I tried this and Safari passes the FTP link to Chimera, my default browser, instead of mounting the volume. I changed my default browser in Safari's prefs from Chimera to itself but still same result - in 10.2.3.
Observation: Safari does seem marginally faster than Chimera in page loads and doesn't have window redraw problems with quicktime movies.
but the finder still does not let you upload/modify files. grrrrr
For a free way to upload and modify files on a FTP server without using the Terminal ftp utility try installing JEdit and installing the FTP plug-in. How to write ntfs on mac catalina. Works great for me. Can't seem to delete files on the server though, except through command line FTP in Terminal.
Does anyone know why i get permissions error when trying to upload to a ftp site using Safari? I can use Transmit and it works fine, and also on a dreaded PC it works with IE (drag and drop) with the same account and password. Thanks.
Because, as the parent post says, OSX mounts it as a read-only volume.
Why the hell does it do that?
KDE, and even Windows, mount FTP servers read-write, so why not OS X? I upload to FTP servers more often than I download. It seems nonsensical for native FTP to be read-only.
It seems to pass it off to whatever's marked as the default FTP client (I have no idea how that's set). For me, that was Interarchy.
Chimera does this too..at least for me
The default FTP client can be changed in Internet Explorer in the protocol helpers preferences. Stupid that there's no system-wide way to do this as there was in OS 9.

Yes, there's no Internet Config like in the old OS9 days so it is enfuriating to have to use MS software to change a global parameter that Safari uses by default.
I had my FTP helper set to Fetch, and after installing Safari for the first time it retained my preference. Now I have to launch explorer to change the FTP helper for Safari, and there's no third party app to do it - stupid huh?
I checked recently modified files after changing this pref in IE
and the following two files were modified :
~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.internetconfig.plist
~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.LaunchServices.plist
So I'm guessing it might be possible to edit one of these to give
Analog synth vst mac. the desired effect - ie. changing the system-wide handler for
FTP.
I'm not expert enough to advise further, maybe someone else
could pick-up here?
abit late but i accidentally set the ftp helper to Safari and it isn't working out properly and i want to switch back to the Finder..but I can't seem to set it using Internet Explorer..Finder can't be selected..
