9150i Write Proctection???????

[Bill Marshall]

I have a 9150i that I use to burn jpgs onto a disk for storage for later use. I can then "drag" these images back onto my hard drive when i need them. Here is the problem:

After "dragging" these images back to my hd, these images become write protected I think. When I try to post these jpgs to a newsgroup, I get the message: ACCESS DENIED

Are they write protected once they are burned to a cd??
If so, how to avoid this??
How do I "unwrite protect"

thanks

Hi,

If you try to post them on a newsgroup, and you don't have access on them, it means that they are read protected, but I suppose they are not.

If you are on U*X-like, do a

chmod 600

On Windows, right click on the files and go to Properties. Somewhere there you should have some checkboxes with the current file attributes and you can set/unset read write and so on privileges on them.

Thanks alot. I did what you suggested. I went to filemanager, and changed the properties from "read only" to "archive". Lo and behold.......IT WORKED. Thanks, I am truly greatful.
