First, the good news: My nightly backup saved the day! The harddrive on my wife's Mac died during the comparison pass of the nightly backup. (How's that for timing?) So I was able to restore her system onto a replacement drive with no loss of data. Yeah, Retrospect! Now, the problem: Before the restore, Mac OS file sharing allowed me to open all folders on her harddrive from my Mac. But now all of the restored folders are displayed as locked (i.e., a belt around the folder icon). Folders created after the restore are not locked. Unlocking the older folders? I suppose that I could unlock each of the older folders by creating a new folder and moving all of the content. I suppose that I could also explicitly setup file sharing for each folder, but I've never had to do that before. Instead, I'd prefer to understand what has gone wrong and apply an appropriate fix. -- Ward -- ---------------------------------------------------------- To subscribe: [EMAIL PROTECTED] To unsubscribe: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Archives: <http://list.working-dogs.com/lists/retro-talk/> Problems?: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
