PM G4 933 with lots of goodies. I have an external enclosure that I want to add a sata drive to use as a back up. Did hard drive prices just jump up like 30% in the last month or is it my imagination? -- You received this message because you are a member of G-Group, a group for those using G3, G4, and G5 desktop Macs - with a particular focus on Power Macs.

Re: Getting really sick of access privileges

I open it on Computer B, make some adjustments to color, and then try to Save, and up pops a box that says I can't Save because I don't have the necessary access privileges. That sounds as though you didn't really copy the file on the remote disk before you opened it with an editor. It's something like the meaning of pulled. If you copied the file to a local folder it's yours. If you're trying to edit it remotely it still belongs to someone else as far as the OS is concerned. When your editor goes to save it on the remote machine you, as the local user, must have read and execute access to the remote directory into which the file will be stored. Have you tried a Save-As into a local directory? Does the directory where the file is stored on the remote machine have write access for everyone? That's actually fairly dangerous and is unlikely to be an Apple default. Apple's GUI access to permissions lacks some capability in that it doesn't make it easy to set and unset the execute bit in the UNIX way. It's whole lot easier in Terminal.app where you can perform an ls -l to see all of the permission bits with chmod available to reset them. But yeahhh. I know. That's not the Apple way. It's also just possible that someone has enabled access control lists. That's popular in machines that are network servers but it's a real PITA in a home environment.

Re: hd
More than that in some cases. I bough a 3TB drive not long ago, Hitatchi. Was $120. Today the exact same drive is $250. (HDD 3T| HITACHI 0S03230 5.4 K) The Thailand floods are having a huge impact on the bare drive market. Glad I am in no rush to buy more storage right now.

Price per GB has just about doubled and maximum quantities have been reduced to one per order. The problems will eventually be resolved and we'll be back to a highly competitive situation, although with only two major suppliers (Seagate and WD) and the prices will move towards where they were. -- You received this message because you are a member of G-Group, a group for those using G3, G4, and G5 desktop Macs - with a particular focus on Power Macs.
