[QUOTE="ApplejustWorks, post: 59181, member: 2105"] Actually strangly enough...I know exactly what he's talking about as it happened to me yesterday! I have a feeling that this had something to do with 10.3.6 Whiteshark, good try, but I'm afraid you misunderstood his post. He has it enabled, but he can only see the total HD size. What happened is, somehow, you lost write permission to the HD.....(I don't even know how this is possible....) Well, here is your solution..: - Click on Macintosh HD. - Push Command+I - Then under Ownership & Permissions, you'll notice that it says "You can Read" This is the problem! - Click details, I assume you are the admin..Under group admin, change it to read & write. It will prompt for you password. Enter it..This will fix your problem! [/QUOTE]
