Then after searching around the internet I also read that at the bottom of the GET INFO window for the My Book, there should have been a check box with “ignore ownership on this volume” next to it. So I deleted system and staff ( i don’t know how my owner setting and admin were removed or changed to systme and staff because my owner setting and admin are listed with everyone as read&write on my comps hard drive) and replaced them with AnjreuTheodore (owner) and admin and allowed all three to read and write. When I would right click and select GET INFO my sharing and permissions read system: read&write, staff: read&write and everyone: read only. What was happening at first was whenever I would open a song and work on it, make any changes or try to save a message would come up saying that I don’t have the proper permissions to make any changes or save anything. I have 4 main folders on the My Book HD: MY personal documents folders, a folder for my back ups, a User guid folder and a Western Digital folder to save all the hard drive ■■■■ in. Everything has been goin fine up until about a week ago. So anyway, I produce my own music and save it to these drives.


I have the My Book hooked up via a 7 hub usb port. I’ve owned the My Book for about 4 years now and I just bought the My Passport 2 weeks ago. So basically, I produce my own music through Logic Pro 9 and save all of it to my hardrives everything is always saved to “My Book” and the My Passport drive is just for the road.
#Create new folder on mac with wd portable hard drive 1tb mac os
I have a WD My Book that was originally bought for a PC but it was reformatted to Mac OS Extended (Jounrnaled) and I have a WD My Passport Studio for Mac. I am starting to get really F*&^%$# pissed off because I am having trouble with me two hard drives all of the sudden and don’t know why.
