Subject: Unable to see files in folders created with Windows Explorer

I have an iOS app that is using the google-api-objectivec-client (snapshot
made in early September) to integrate a user's Google Drive account. In
general everything works. A user can download and upload files, create
folders, and delete files.

I have a report of one strange issue. One user is telling me that if they
create a folder in their Google Drive account from Windows Explorer and add
files to this folder from Windows explorer, then the files do not appear in
my app (but the folder does). However, the files do appear if they view
their Google Drive account using their computer's web browser pointed at
drive.google.com. If they create a folder and add files to it from their
browser, then my app sees the folder and the files just fine.

So I'm curious what could be different. Why would my app only see the
folder and not files in the folder and only if the folder was created and
populated through Windows Explorer?

I'm on a Mac so I have no way to test this myself.

I am using the Objective-C library. I'm using the
google-api-objectivec-client library to access Google Drive. Is this forum
or the one you linked the correct place for such questions?

I'm trying to determine what I might, if anything, be doing wrong in my
code that would prevent certain files from appearing when I use the
Objective-C library to get a list of files for a given folder.

The engineers familiar with the Drive API are in the other forum.
