Permission to write but NOT overwrite files on external drive Hi, since very recently whenever I try to overwrite an image (photo) file on an external hard drive, i get an error stating I cannot save the file because there is no access permission granted. It's happening primarily in photoshop. If I want to save the image with a new name, there's no problem. The problem occurs when I want to save a new version by overwriting the existing file. Now I need to save the file under a unique name, delete the older version, and rename the new version to the original file name. It also happens when I download a new file which is sent to me through wetransfer. Again I get an error stating there is no permission to write to the external hard drive. The workaround for that is to save to the local hard drive and then simply move the file to the external hard drive. Again, this is something which started happening recently. It could be as a result of installing Monterrey. Also Photoshop is a new installation. Any thoughts on this?

WD My Passport Ultra 4TB (Mac OS Extended) sometimes read only on Mac It seems that my WD My Passport Ultra 4TB (Mac OS Extended) sometimes go to read only mode on my Mac. I've been looking on the web and most people had this issue because it's formatted to NTFS. But mine is bought with Mac OS pre-formatted and it sometimes show it's custom access in 'Get Info' popup. The way I can tell is that if I open Photos (my file is on this drive), Mac would say 'The library could not be opened'. On different day, it can open and the drive is on custom access mode. Why is this happening? (I've tried to reboot the machine already)iMac Config: macOS High Sierra 10.13.3
