The external HD might be set to Read Only on your eMac.  Try this:
If the external HD shows on your desktop, single click the HD to highlight it.  From the Finder Menu bar at the top of the screen, click on File, pull down and click on Get Info.  At the bottom of window that opens, under Sharing and Permissions, you might see something like:
System:  Read & Write
Admin:  Read & Write
User X:  Read Only
User X being your user account.
Good luck.
