"Access denied because you do not have sufficient access privileges."

That's the error message I get after I try to access my working files, even though I am logged in as administrator. This has just started since I restored my files with Time Machine.

Help!

That did not work.

Still having tons of privelages issues.

I have 8 or more hard drives attached and they are showing a Lock icon beside as well.

Any ideas?
Apples concepts obviously don't work or have issues.

thanks

in Terminal, type:
ls -aleO@ /Volumes

Start a new thread with the results of that, and a description of all permissions issues you are having, since your problem is unrelated to the original poster's problem.

Good luck!
