Please help! I am trying to access old attachments/files dating back to fall of 2009. However, when I go to the view finder and attempt to select to "open", they are "greyed-out" and system sees them but won't allow me to access. Any suggestions will be greatly appreciated as they are relatively important documents!!

Try this for us:

Select one of the greyed out files, right click on it, select "get info" and tell us what it says. What we need to know is what is states for permissions. That information will be at the bottom of the dialog under "Sharing and Permissions".

Post back results.
