Moving My Book to New PC

My ancient computer that My Book was connected to bit the dust. I am trying to connect it to a new laptop. The laptop recognizes the external drive but will not allow me to access image or music files. I have gone through the process of granting access to each folder, but I am getting a message telling me I do not have permission to access the individual files. Connecting to the new computer also changed the drive from G: to E:. Is there a way to grant access or permissions through the new computer to all folders and files on the external drive?

Hi,

As I understand permissions, if you select the drive (or partition)

y0u can then select properties and then security to set permissions
for the entire drive.
