Projects and Events require read and write permission
Hi,
I just upgraded my Macbook Pro.
When I set up the new machine (MBP 15" 2.8i7) , I just set up a dummy account to have a play while i was backing up everything on my old account. I now realise i shoudl have have done this, but I used the same full name on the dummy account as the main account on my old machine (MBP 15" 2.6i7), so when I did a migration using migration assistant, I had to change my main account name to just my first name, now it seems all my FCPX libraries have got permission only for read and write for the new dummy account, and not for my previous main account.
Before doing the migration, I did copy most of my FCP X libraries from the Movies Folder onto a external drive. Now when I go and try and open these files, i get the following error:
Projects and Events require read and write permission.
I've already tried to go into the file info, and change the read and write permissions, however it doesn't seem to work. and i still get the error.
I had a similar issue with Aperture, and I had do some kind of repair permissions command through aperture, but not sure How i can do this for FCP X.
libraries.
A possible solution I was thinking was what if i delete this new dummy account. and change back the name of the previous main account to my full name would that work? I haven't done this yet, as I wanted to get some advice before doing anything.
Hope someone can assist me with this
many thanks in advance,
Derrick
