I am plagued with a huge list of unwanted fonts in Word/Office2008. As far as I can see, they are in Applications/Microsoft Office 2008/ Office/Type Libraries but are inaccessible. Is there any way to edit them, or just switch the whole lot off. I am loath to just Trash the lot.

Thank you Ronni for your prompt reply. I followed your steps carefully and unlocked the padlock. Unfortunately iPhoto still does not open, and I receive the same message Caution - the iPhoto Library is locked, on a locked disk or you do not have permission to make changes to it. No-one

Peta, When you unlocked the padlock ... Do you have Read Write permissions? If you do iPhoto is on your Mac, not an external drive. Try rebuild the library: hold down the apple and option (or alt) keys while launching iPhoto. Use the resulting dialogue to rebuild. Choose to Rebuild iPhoto
