i have a load of image files. they where scanned at the photo store but the trouble is that when i copy them to my hard drive from the cd my mac (OS10.3.9) will not let me rename or change the label color. the file is not locked and i am the owner with read/write permissions. i used to have a app the would reset all the permissions of files in a folder to the same thing but i have lost it. dose any one know of a good free permissions app that could sort me out?

is this problem a problem with the actual files or your computer being able to open them? did you try this cd on another mac?

If you select a folder and select File/Get Info you can change permissions and apply it to the contents of the folder.
You can apply the current permissions without changing it. Just click on "apply to enclosed items."
