I purchased this WD Elements 3TB yesterday.
I formatted it using MAC Disc Utility (‘MAC OS Extended Journal’ option)
I then copied Torrents from my HD. Since I have read&write permissions, no problem, they were copied.
Today, I tried to download a torrent directly into my Elements, but a prompt appeared indicating that “I do not have writing permissions to the volume”!
I restarted the computer, NO CHANGE!
I cleaned the external drive and re-formatted it, NO CHANGE!
I then revised all options following Finder>Get Info> unlock>enter admin password>apply to enclosed items > uncheck “ignore ownership on this volume” box, and, the permission, as it was before, shows = you have read and write permission.
Admin, myself have read and write permissions.
Then tried the download but unfortunately NO CHANGE! I still DO NOT HAVE WRITING PERMISSION.
Can you please help me to solve this problem? Thank you in advance for your help
Sincerely,
Observingall
