I can get into info but the sharing permissions (all three) come up
with custom) and I cannot change them they are greyed out
I have not seen this before and they are my backup disks

any ideas????
So Tom ,
If you do the Apple eye , are you saying that when you click on the
Lock
it does not offer you a window to authenticate by entering your
password,
and you are unable to check the box " ignore permissions on this
drive " ?
Further ,
did you happen to give your mac a new user name when you set it up
after the reinstal ?
Can you set up a second user with the previous name and deal with
the drives that way ?
