[QUOTE="lrd, post: 1497225, member: 176682"] I did that and it did nothing. OS X will not allow either user to delete a file, regardless of who I set as owner. I received the following from the developer: "[I]Well, I doubt BatChmod can help. On a NAS or any file server, permissions are controlled by the server and unless special permissions allow the connected user to change file permissions, no tool will allow you to change these. You must either find a way to connect the NAS directly via USB, FireWire or something (Possibly not even possible) or use the NAS's admin tools to change permissions on the folders somehow. Normally, when you copied things over you were connected with some sort of user/password... you may want to make sure you are using the same to transfer files back.[/I]" [/QUOTE]
