When i first purchased my NS7 i purchased a PC laptop and was downloading all my music that way. After waiting for a while for the beta drivers to update i just returned my PC and purchased a MAC. All of my music was placed on an external hard drive and when i try to create crates or anything, the music has a lil lock to the left of it and says read only. How can i remove the lock or the read only label from it? From my understanding anything to the left of your music is not a good thing and needs to be taken care of as soon as possible.

Can someone please help me out?

Hi Confused DJ,

What happens if you click on that little lock?

Try this:
1) Mark some tracks and press 'ctrl' + 'cmd' + 'i'
2) Click on that little lock and enter your administrator password if required
3) Click '+' and add your account as a new user group
4) Choose 'Read and write permissions' for your new user group

Does that work?

What do you mean by that?
