Hi VaShaun,
There are two ways to do this but I don't have complete info for either. One is to use terminal to change the permissions of the folder and the other is to interact with info, find owners and groups, give everyone or at least you permission to read and write to the folder and this should either unlock the folder or allow you to do so. Were I you, I would go to terminal and delete the folder assuming of course you can reconstruct it and that it is not important to your system which in this case it is not. You will want to be sure that you have root permissions in terminal in case you need them. To do this, open from anywhere, >applications>utilities>netinfo mannager and from the security, if it is not, enable root user. then you will want to change the root password because I believe it is blank.

Listers some how I have locked myself out of a burn folder that I created to burn a movie in. I don't know what hadppened, but when I went to go and burn the disc it said I couldn't burn it because it was locked. I checked the permissions and it said the lock check box was checked and dimmed. Based on everything that I have rad I am suppose to uncheck this box and all will be well. Because the item is dim even though I am the administrator I can't change it. Can someone assist me?
