[QUOTE="jimshabadoo, post: 890055, member: 116132"] I recently bought a Macbook Pro and am having some difficulty figuring out permissions on an encrypted disk image. Here's my situation: 1. I partitioned an external hard drive into two parts: one is Mac OS Extended (Journaled), the other is FAT (for Windows stuff). 2. I created a password protected disk image on the Mac partition of the external hard drive and put private files in there. 3. After the disk image is mounted, I can access the files with no problem, but I can't delete them or move them around within the disk image or add additional files to the disk image. When I check the info, it says I only have read permission and I don't see a way to change that. My question: is this disk image "fixed"? In other words, am I forever prevented from modifying anything within the encrypted disk image? Thanks for your help! A new Mac user [/QUOTE]
