Any other suggestions for the message the backup volume is read only

I keep getting the message Time machine is unable to complete the backup because it appears the backup volume is read only. I've tried the suggested repairs from apple for this but keep getting the same problem. Any suggestions?

Imac, Mac OS X (10.5.1)
