[QUOTE="Gethin, post: 467986, member: 17283"] I'm guessing that some of your music collection was first ripped on your PC before you got a Mac? If so it may be that they've been imported onto the Mac as Read Only. To get round this, Ctrl-Click on your music folder and select "Get Info" Make sure that in "Ownership and permissions" it says you can "Read and Write" Click the arrow next to "Details" and you should see a button that says "Apply to all enclosed items" - click this and it'll update the permissions in all the sub folders which will hopefully solve all your problems If not I give up :D [/QUOTE]
