Mac Access as Admin
Hi, I am getting a Mac next week, and a little unsure of the big wide world of Mac.! Currently on my PC, I have to connect to the files as Admin (using DOS Prompt etc) - otherwise I cant change,...
Yes it is clearer now, thanks. Sorry, bit of a novice on this kinda stuff.
Sticking to Windows, and the NAS settings.... the folder/share had an owner of 'nobody'. So I have changed that to me.
In the first folder, I can add files, but subfolders it says 'access denied, you need permission.....'.
It was all mucked up some time ago, when I got in touch with Netgear Support, and never sorted it since.
I have a funny feeling it is to do with 'right click security permissions' on the folders as you view them in Win Explorer.!
