The only time I've seen this was when I was trying to copy to an sdhc card and I had inadvertently pushed up the protect tab. Since that doesn't appear to be your case it sounds more like somehow Os10 seems to think the folder is protectted. On Mar 16, 2010, at 12:11 PM, Nicolai Svendsen wrote:

According to Gordon Smith on the Mac access list it is not very accessible and you'd be better off sticking with Snow Leopard. On Apr 6, 2010, at 4:26 AM, Simon Fogarty wrote: > Hi Listers, > > I've just been looking at the mac mini server machine that is being > advertised on the apple website.
