[OS X TeX] problem with hyperref and file permissions

hi list,

I had a folder with a beamer sourcecode and an includes-folder with files linked via hyperref in the beamer presentation;
I had the folder in one account and put it into the >>shared<<-folder; then -- from another user account on the same machine -- I copied the folder (with the tex-file and the includes folder in it) into the other user account;

when I compiles, everything is ok; but when I try to open the link in thexshop preview, nothing happens (except some sound); when I try to open it via the terminal (open file.pdf), then an error message pops up saying: 
The file “file.pdf” couldn’t be opened because you don’t have permission to view it.

But when I type ls -l in the terminal, then I get:

drwxr-xr-x for the includes folder,
-rw-r--r--@ for the pdf file.pdf which is the beamer presentation containing the links,
-rw-r--r-- for the texfie file.tex

for the files in the includes folder I get:

-rw-r--r--@
or 
-rw-r--r-

and independently of the existing @, I get the above error massage;


here is a minimal example, called >>mini.tex<<:

\documentclass{beamer}
\usepackage{hyperref}


\begin{document}

\begin{frame}
\begin{itemize}
\item
\href{./includes/includedfile.pdf}{klickhere}
\end{itemize}
\end{frame}
\end{document}

here is the terminal output:
