Please Help!!
Im trying to transfer my iphotos file onto my hard drive to back it up and it wont let me, I can't make a new file on my iomega external drive. When I drag and drop it give me the circel with the line through it!
To get to Disk Utilities you will need to open Launchpad and you can open Disk Utilities from there. I'm not in front of a Mac right now so I will have to get back to you on the specifics of what to do next. I have verified and repaired permissions without any data loss in the past.

I can't recall, I have files on my external drive and I believe I used my Mac to transfer those pictures before.. Do you know what in would do ether way...
I take it the drive shows up in Finder then. Have you tried using Disk Utility to Verify or Repair permissions on that drive? If not, try verifying the permissions and if necessary repairing the permissions and see if that helps.
