  • If your library is on external volume, select the icon of your external Disk on your Desktop or in the "Computer" window in the Finder.
  • Select "File > Get Info" from the main menu bar or press cmd-I.
  • Click the padlock icon in the lower right corner of the Info-panel and authorize.
  • Disclose the "Sharing & Permissions" brick and enable the "Ignore Ownershp" flag.

Also select the library in the Finder and again select "File > Get Info" from the main menu bar. In the "Sharing and Permissions" brick add "Read & Write" privileges for yourself, and give yourself "Read&Write" access, if you do not have it.
