Can't copy iMac to Win7 PC

Can someone help with this?
I want to copy some pictures from my iMac (OSX 10.6) to a drive on a PC (Win7)
From the Finder menu I click on "Go to Server" and click the right stuff to get access to the PC's F drive.
Open another window in Finder and attempt to drag the photo to the PC F drive.
It asks for my password - ok, done
Then I get an error on the Mac that the file can not be copied because I "don't have permission to read it".
Get Info shows the file permissions are set for:
XXXX (me) Read & Wite
Admin Read & Write
Everyone Read Only
What's the fix?
Right now I'm moving them over using a flash drive.
Stumped.
Thanks.

Thanks, that was it. I'm a Mac guy and didn't even think of permissions on the PC side. Duh
Appreciate the fast help.

  • Can not copy from PC (win7) to Lumia 520

    last night i was about to copy a file from my netbook (win7) to my memory card that in my lumia 520, but everytime i tried to copy it, the explorer on my netbook became not responding and need to be restrart. can someone tell me what's wrong and how to fix it ?
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    yes it is normal, the phone only checks for app updates every few days or so, so the updates will appear eventually. if you are concerned, you can search for the particulra app in the Store manually, and it will tell you if there is an update or not.
    as such, there is no option to manually check for updates in the Store. you can leave feedback over with Microsoft at http://windowsphone.uservoice.com

  • How can I copy songs with metadata (added in iTunes) from my PC to my new iMac?

    I have iTunes 12.0.1 on my Windows PC. I'm about to get a new iMac (hooray!) and I'm beginning the process of transferring everything on my PC to my Mac. I've got all the documents, pictures, files, etc. covered, but now I have to make a copy of all of my music.
    Most of the music in my iTunes library is not bought through the iTunes Store (I download most of my songs from the Internet). Then, after saving the downloaded song to my computer, I go into iTunes on my computer and add the song. I also add metadata like artist, album, genre, album artwork, etc. to the song in iTunes. What concerns me is that only the songs in iTunes have this metadata: the original downloaded files I saved onto my computer don't have any metadata.
    I really don't want to have to go through the long and tedious process of adding artist/album names, genre, etc. to every single song in my iTunes library on my new iMac. How can I copy songs with metadata (added in iTunes) from my PC to my new iMac?
    Thank you so much for any help!

    Hello! I'd like to learn more about Home Sharing. To do this, would both my PC (which I hope to get rid of) and my new iMac need to be plugged in?
    Also, after Home Sharing with the old PC is initiated, I understand that all my songs would appear on my iMac. Is there a way to copy all of these (with album artwork, name, artist, etc.) directly to the iMac's hard drive and then disconnect home sharing so I can get rid of my PC?
    Thank you!

  • I own a MacBook Pro and an iMac. How can I copy my iPhoto library from my MacBook to the iMac?

    I own a 13" MacBook Pro and a 27" iMac and I have different iPhoto libraries for each one of them.
    How can I copy the iPhoto library from the MacBook to the iMac without losing the pictures I have on the iMac library?
    Is it possible to merge the libraries?
    Can I do this without using an external HDD? (e.g. connecting them through an ethernet cable?)
    Thanks for your help!

    1. By eirher a: renaming one of the Libraries or b: copying them to another folder
    2. If you have Aperture 3.3 or later and iPhoto 9.3 or later you can merge libraries with Aperture.
    Otherwise the only way to merge Libraries is with the paid ($20) version of iPhoto Library Manager
    3. Yes.

  • How can I copy all the files from my iMac to an external drive so they remain as 'regular accessible files'? I want to clean my dive

    How can I copy all the files from my iMac to an external drive so they remain as 'regular accessible files'? I want to clean my dive

    You can use a program like Carbon Copy Cloner.  It will clone your HD to the external.  The format is the same as your internal drive and you can boot from it using Option key at boot time.

  • How can I copy address book content from user 1 to user 2 in my iMac

    I have my iMac set up with 2 users. The address book is in user 1. I need to establish a copy of it in user 2 so that the icloud I have set up for that user icludes the address book. How can i copy the address book from user 1 to user 2?

    Are you sure you did that right ... because I did a File/Backup Address Book, and the file named included the date. I then copied the file through our Airport network from the Powerbook to a new iMac. The opening Address Book on the iMac, I did a File/Revert to Address Book Backup, which allows you to choose the file. Now the iMac had the same Address Book file as the Powerbook. This looks to me to be the same thing you are trying to do.

  • Can I copy macbook library to imac?

    My itunes account is on my Macbook pro where i sync my iphone, etc.
    I can share this library to my imac but this doesn't allow me to use that music within iweb, idvd, etc.
    I copied the tunes and the associated files to the imac but a message saying i was not authorised to play this music prevented me from using it. Am i trying the impossible (or immoral?) and is there a solution.

    Songs purchased on the iTunes Store can be copied to an unlimited number of computers. However, only five computers at a time can play your iTunes DRM-protected music.

  • Can I copy iPhoto events from iPhone to Iphoto in iMac?

    In my iMac iPhoto, I have lost 4 events, but they are complete in my iPhone iPhoto.  Can I copy and insert in the iMaac?

    If you just want the photos in their event folders on the EHD and you're running iPhoto 9 (11) or later that can be done rather simply:
    1 - select the Events you want to move to the EHD.
    2 - use the File ➙ Export ➙ File Export menu option with the following settings:
    Kind = Original or Current depending on if you want to save the original file or the edited version if it's been edited.
    Subfolder Format = Event Name.
    This will export each event to a folder with the same name as the Event to anywhere you'd like, even directly to the EHD.
    If you're running iPhoto 8 or earlier you'll have to export each event to folders you've manually created on the EHD before exporting.

    Wouldn't that would be a breach of your licence? Plus, can you be sure yould get all the ancillary files from HD/Library and System/Library?

    So it can be .mp4 format.

  • I own an iMac and a Macbook Air and I have iWorks on my iMac. Can I copy it to my Air so that I can use it while working out-of-town? It would not be used on both computers simultaneously.

    I own an iMac and a Macbook Air and I have iWorks on my iMac. Can I copy it to my Air so that I can use it while working out-of-town? It would not be used on both computers simultaneously.

    It depends on how you bought iWork (no 's').
    If you bought a single-user retail box or license from the trial, no, you cannot legally install it on another Mac.
    If you bought a family pack retail box or licesnce, you can install on up to five Macs in your household.
    If you bought it from the Mac App Store, you can install the apps on as many Macs that you have by opening the Mac App Store & clicking on Purchases. Enter your Apple ID & click install.

  • I have two external HDs, I plugged both in my iMac. I can open both but I can't copy or move from one to the other any help?

    I have two external HDs, I plugged both in my iMac. I can open both, I cn move files to my mac. but I can't copy or move files from one EHD to the other EHD any help?

    I assume your External HDDs are formatted in NTFS. With this format OSX can see files and copy from but cant copy or move to those devices. You need to install any third party software to enable both way copy/move feature. You can use TUXERA NTFS in OSX. It is fantastic software to solve your problem.
