All operating systems, including Windows, have some form of permissions control for files. Without more information on your exact setup, it is impossible to guess what the problem is exactly, but it is probably that whatever user account you are using to copy the files with, has not been given privileges high enough to allow the copying of what Windows deems files of a sensitive nature. Basically, it thinks that those files are a security risk if they're copied, and won't let a user without proper authority copy them. Try making sure that whatever user account you are using to copy the files has been given admin permission on the Windows side.

Hi guys, what is this garbo? This afternoon I tried to transfer my web site to my macbook from my windows laptop and got the following error berried in an obscure object in the copy window. "some of the items did not coppy. You do not have permition to coppy all of the items." and an OK button. Actually there were about three of these and I had to get rid of them one by one. So, why do I have permition to copy some files, but not others of the same types? More importantly, how much of the data I've backed up hasn't gone through because it's decided to tell me what to do with my own files? Even more important still, how do I make this behavior stop?

Thanks,

Erik
