Authenticate When Copying Pictures To External Drive - How To Disable This ?
MacBook Pro with Retina display, OS X Yosemite (10.10.4)
Usually, this is the result of the user you are logged in as not having write permission on that drive. To check this possibility out, do a "Get Info" on the drive (select it in Finder, then File > Get Info) and have a look at "Sharing and Permissions". You could check the "Ignore ownership...." box and see if that helps.
Hi CT,
there is something wrong.
I cannot access Verify Disk Permission on the external drive as it is grey.
The access to o Verify Disk Permission on Macintosh HD is granted.
This is a brand new laptop, probably something went wrong at the initial startup... Any other ideas?
Its really strange.
In User & Groups says that the Current User (my name) is Admin but
in Security & Privacy says A login password has been set for this user…
DIsk Utility normally can't be used for permissions issues on external drives since it only checks permissions on system files with installation receipts.

All that is telling you is that your admin user account has a password.
Did you try the Get Info (command - I) that CT suggested?
