Subject: Re: changing file permissions on back up folder need help urgent


Hank. I'm having the same issue. For some reason, my usb external is showing up as read only. I think you need to run disk utility and repair permissions on the external. I haven't tried this, but the problem is not with your original folder. it may be with the write permissions of your external. Hope this helps.
