Permissions problem

Hi everybody,


I've a problem with permissions to write and read my hard disk on Airport Time Capsule.

I can't change privilege, it tell me that: Unable to perform the operation because you do not have the required permissions.


But I'm the only one to use this Time Capsule so I'm the admin.


What can I do to change permissions ?


Thank you.

Permissions are much more of an issue with El Capitan. Do you have a computer still using older OS?


I recommend you create the folder from finder in El Capitan.. then use the older computer to move the files to the new folder you created.


No luck then talk to me.. but you cannot fix the permissions on network drive from El Capo. And it is mighty fussy.


I guess the only way then is to archive the files to USB drive.. so you can plug disk into your computer, access the files then copy them back.
