I cannot move photos to current folders "I do not have permission to move photos" why, how do i fix this

My son just installed adobe photoshop elements 12 on my mac computer. Every time I try to move a photo to a folder it says "you do not have permission to move this photo" .
Why and how do I fix it? I am not computer savvy and my son does not know why this is happening. HELP

Since folder permissions are an operating system issue not photoshop, you will need to specify which operating system you have, so you get the correct information and person that knows about that operating system.

Hi
One Must NEVER move or alter any folders named
• iMovie Event's - or -
• iMovie Projects - or - alike
on DESKTOP/FINDER - Ever ! - ONLY Within the iMovie Program ! else all connections are broken and hard to impossibly to mend !
but rather do as described here under
Moving Event's and Project's
Connection - Either connect one Mac in Target mode to the other via FireWire. Or use an external hard disk !
(Target-Mode - Start one Mac e.g. laptop - BUT keep T-key down during full up-start - Now a FW-symbol is jumping around the screen and it will work as an external hard disk when connected to the other Mac)
A. The External Hard Disk - MUST BE - Mac OS Extended (hfs) formatted to work for Video. UNIX/DOS/FAT32/Mac OS Exchange works for most other things but not for Video whatever program is used (iMovie or FinalCut)
B. Should be a FireWire one as USB/USB2 performs badly to me and especially when filling up
C. Do never Move or Alter any folder named
• iMovie Event's - or -
• iMovie Project's
on DeskTop/Finder - as this will result in iMovie losing connections to them and repair can be anything from hard to impossibly
D. Moving and Copying must be done within iMovie application and Events to Events - and - Project's to Project's.
E. Moving Project's to Event's - Do not work for me - I have to export project as a QuickTime movie then Import this into Events.
Event's window can show two faces
Like this
or like this
from one hard disk Event - You can move it to the other hard disk
You can not (at least not me) move Event to Project or other way around only
Event to Event and Project to Project

It is possible that you have the rotation lock on? Check this:

Nobody can tell you anything without proper system info or other technical details since even your terminology is confusing. there are no "pages" in Photoshop. What you describe in vague terms could be anything from your target document having a different color mode/ color profile to some hardware acceleration issue, but we really can't make any sense of it based on your information.

You might need to use a faster internet connection or stonger wifi signal, or download them to your iTunes library (see http://support.apple.com/kb/ht2519) and sync them to your iPad to watch them.

Another way. You can use a USB flash drive & the camera connection kit.
Plug the USB flash drive into your computer & create a new folder titled DCIM. Then put your movie/photo files into the folder. The files must have a filename with exactly 8 characters long (no spaces) plus the file extension (i.e., my-movie.mov; DSCN0164.jpg).
Now plug the flash drive into the iPad using the camera connection kit. Open the Photos app, the movie/photo files should appear & you can import. (You can not export using the camera connection kit.)

I am backing up my macbook 10.5 to an external harddrive probably formatted for a PC. I was trying to move instead of copy and the folder partially copied then said i did not have permission to move all my files.

I am backing up my macbook 10.5 to an external hard drive probably formatted for windows. it was let me move most of my files. however i tried to move instead of copy a very large folder (60gb) and it transferred most of the files onto the external hard drive then gave me an error message saying i did not have permision to move all the files. i am worred that some were moved and some were not. it is showing all files when i checked for some of them
my question is if i move instead of copy and i get an error message does os x just copy the remaining files instead of moving them?

Typically when you drag files from one drive to another, Macs copy them, not move them. You usually have to copy them and then delete the originals.
Which files were you trying to back up? If this involved system files or application files then there may have been hidden files, or files with certain permissions set on them.
If you're doing this as a gneral backup I would not use a PC formatted drive since that introduces its own set of issues. I would use a Mac formatted drive and then a cloning tool (Carbon Copy Cloner, SuperDuper, others).

TA21041 I can not open some folders and get not have permission to open the folder

I can not open some folders and recieve the message: you do not have permission to open this folder. how I can solve it?

Select that folder, choose Get Info from the File menu, and give yourself read access under Sharing & Permissions. This shouldn't be done on folders in system directories.

Many Photos, my own and others, can no longer be seen on Flickr. How can I fix this?

When I go to "You" on my Flickr account, most of my photos do not show up. I cannot edit them or add titles because i cannot see them. Only the ones with photos can be brought up. When I open my groups many photos do not show up, only the the photographers user name. When I click on that, it only takes me to his/her photostream but not the photo. This has been going on for at least a couple of weeks. It makes it very difficult for me to administer or run my groups when I cannot see the photos.

See:
* [[Images or animations do not show]]
* http://kb.mozillazine.org/Images_or_animations_do_not_load
It is possible that you clicked "Block Images" in the right click context menu while trying to save an image.
*A way to see which images are blocked is to click the favicon (Site Identification icon) on the left side of the location bar.
*A click on the "More Information" button will open the Security tab of the "Page Info" window (also accessible via "Tools > Page Info").
*Open the Media tab of the "Page Info" window.
*Select the first image and scroll down though the list with the Down arrow key.
*If an image in the list is grayed and there is a check-mark in the box "Block Images from..." then remove that mark to unblock the images from that domain.
*You can see the permissions for the domain in the current tab in Tools > Page Info > Permissions
*You can see all image exceptions in Tools > Options > Content: Load Images: Exceptions

I still cannot view flash players in firefox after uninstalling and reinstalling firefox and flash multiple times. how do i fix this issue perminantly?

I can go into chrome without any issues and watch any video without any problem. the second i get into firefox nothing works. i have had this issue on and off for years. i really do not see why you cannot fix this if everybody else can. i have uninstalled and reinstalled firefox and flash player multiple times. nothing seems to work. I am truly getting really tired of this same problem year after year, i stay with firefox because you are privacy conscience and are being more so consistently. i do not know what other details to tell you other than this just keeps happening and it is making it very tough to do anything on firefox when i cannot use a simple thing such as flash player. as i said, if the other browsers can fix this i see no reason why firefox cannot year after year. i hope there is a simple fix for this problem because it has basically halted a lot of my work on the net as i will no longer use google or microsoft. thank you

Firefox does not play videos. That is the job of the plugins.

I do not have permission to move TimeMachine backup?

I've been having this issue for some time now. I have several small external storage drives that I would like to re-sort and move some of the backups from TimeMachine onto a new cloud based external drive.
I want to do this for two computers I have regarding the TM backups.
Anyway, my small externals are full and I need to do some resorting and reformatting and putting things in so they actually make sense again. I also need to do this since backups keep failing on this drive I am using and it's been quite a few months now and there is no solution to fix this.
What I want to do is copy the current directory that TimeMachine makes onto the large cloud drive (Backups.backupdb) and keep it there. When I try to move / copy this directory I keep getting an error! How can I have no permissions when it's my computer? Right now if I try to drag and drop it into the new server I get a pop up saying, "The volume is the wrong format for a backup" - this is a new one.
We have the cloud device split up into two areas, one for me and one for my husband. I'm also hoping I can designate a specific area for each of our backups as well.

Hi Twitchin Kitten,
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities. Based on what you stated, it sounds like you are trying to move a TimeMachine backup to another drive. I would recommend that you read this article, it may be able to help the issue.
Time Machine: How to transfer backups from a current backup drive to a new backup drive - Apple Support
Check the format of your new backup drive
Connect the new backup drive to your Mac.
Open Disk Utility (located in the Utilities folder).
In Disk Utility, select the new drive's icon to make sure it has a GUID partition and is formatted as Mac OS Extended (Journaled). You can check this from the "Format:" line at the bottom of the Disk Utility window. If your new backup drive is not formatted this way, reformat it, selecting the option for Mac OS Extended (Journaled) with a GUID partition. Back up any important data from your new drive before you format it.
Set permissions on your new backup drive
Open a new Finder window.
In the sidebar of the Finder window, click the icon of the new backup drive.
Choose Get Info from the File menu.
Make sure "Ignore ownership on this volume" at the bottom of the "Sharing & Permissions" section of the Get Info window is deselected (unchecked).
Cheers,
Mario

I Cannot print from imac iPhoto 9.6 using Yosemite 10.10.1to Epson printer? How do I fix this problem?

I Updated my iMac to Yosemite 10.10.1 and cannot print from iPhoto 9.6 to my Epson picture mate PM240 photo printer. I had no problem printing before the upgrade. It seems like I don't have a connection between the iMac and Epson Printer. I checked all connections and they are correct. I visited the Epson site and there were no updates available for the PM240. The problem arises after I select a picture to print. When I select PRINT from the FILE the spinning color wheel begins and I cannot go further.
I Contacted Apple and the technical adviser ran the iPhoto troubleshooting programs within IPhoto. This seemed to solve the problem, but the problem almost immediately reocurred. Does anyone have a solution to this problem?

Thanks for the replies guys. Epson put me through a complex set of instructions to install an earlier driver. The problem was not solved. Apple also tried to solve the provlem by getting rid of the printer, unplugging it etc and then re starting and checking computer/printer communication by printing a test page from the system preferences/Pring & Fax options. This worked proving the the computer and printer are talking to each other.
The printer works properly as a stand alone unit. That is, I can copy and print and scan and print with no problems.
The Apple support guy didn't suggest any Apple alternative drivers so I assume there aren't any.
Neither the Epson nor Apple assistants seemed interested in the printer generated error message. I would have thought it would at least provide a clue to the problem to someone with technical expertise.
It seems that there are a lot of problems with the 10.6.8 update so maybe Apple will get to work and bring it up to scratch. I hope it gets things right soon.
