MBPro internal HD won't allow me to change from "Read Only"
I bought a used 2015 MacBook Pro. It arrived with OSX 10.11 installed, and the previous owner
simply gave it to me with their user name/password info. I decided to upgrade to Sierra. All was
going well til I installed a favorite recording app which requires me to specify the HD it needs to
recognize and "read/write" to. It reported the HD was unable to be read. I then selected "Get Info"
for the HD and found under Sharing and Permissions the "You can only read" message. The 'system
privilege shows Read and Write, but when i tried to change 'wheel' and 'everyone' to Read and Write
I get the dialog box: "operation can't be completed because you don't have the necessary permission."
I then noticed the Format of the drive is APFS (Encrypted) .
Any suggestions on how to proceed?
Thanks,
Mike
