Time Machine permissions problem after clean install of ML
Hello everyone, I hope you might help me with this one. As the title says, I'm having a few issues restoring my Music folder from Time Machine after doing a clean installation of Mountain Lion. To be precise, there are a few folders in Time Machine I cannot access because "[I] don’t have permission to see its contents". For example, if I try to restore the Music folder, first Finder prompts me to insert an admin password, and then when the folder is restored, the permissions are set on reading only in the folder and all its subfolders.
Here's a few details of my mess-up you might find useful.
- Today I replaced my 500gb hdd with a 240gb ssd on my late-2008 Macbook unibody with Mountain Lion.
- While doing this, I put the 500gb in a hd caddy, replacing the superdrive. After doing it without having any hardware problems whatsoever, I did a clean re-installation of Mountain Lion.
- Afterwards I used the Migration Assistant to restore my previous configuration and folders, except for two (the Music one and another one) which wouldn't fit in the ssd (I planned to put them in the 500gb drive).
- The migration was done, and I tried to restore those two folders in the second drive through Time Machine. That's when I found out about the permissions problem.
Also, here's what I get if I digit "ls -alOe /Volumes" and "id" in the terminal.

How do I solve this?
Thanks in advance for your help, and sorry for the poor grammar (I'm not an English native speaker).
