Padlock icon on the window "read informations".

I can't find the padlock icon on the window "read informations" of my disk, because I wanna be able to change and add things on it but I can't. Please help me I'm french and I really need help.
Actually I need to do that:
Apply permissions to all items in a folder or a disk
Select a folder or a disk, then choose File > Get Info.
Click the lock icon to unlock it, then enter an administrator’s name and password.
Choose "Apply to enclosed items" from the Action pop-up menu (looks like a gear).
But I can't do the underlined part.
Thanks for your help.

If this is on an External disk then it is more than likely formatted in the Windows NTFS format and OS X, the Mac operating system, can't Write to that format. It can READ from it but can not write to it.
You will have to reformat it for Mac OS X. You do that ibn Disk Utility. Google Format drive for Mac OS X and you will get a ton of links to tutorials explaining exactly how to do it.

  • Why is my app missing the tablet/phone icon in the Windows store when I have linked my phone app to my Windows Store app

    I recently updated two apps that I had developed both Windows and Windows phone apps for.  They were not originally linked as they were developed before there was a linking process.  I updated both the phone apps to have the same in app purchases
    as their corresponding Windows app and then linked their app package ids to there corresponding Windows apps as well.  However, only one of the two apps I updated now shows the Tablet/Phone icon in the Windows Phone store.  I would really like that
    icon to appear as I think it will help downloads.  I linked the app packages the same on both apps so I don't know why one is showing the icon and the other is not.  The updated has been published for over a week so I don't think it's a timing issue.
    Please help.

    It's just you. And the Caps Lock key on your keyboard is stuck. You should get that fixed.

  • How Can I Minimize a VI to an Icon on the Windows System Tray?

    How Can I Minimize a VI to an Icon on the Windows System Tray?

    There are some examples available online, using both ActiveX and .NET. Try searching for "tray icon".
    It's been a while since I looked at it, but if memory serves, the structures needed to load an icon through the Win32 API are actually quite complicated and not as simple as that article makes them out to be.

  • Since upgrading to 9.01, FF starts up with previous tabs open. Hovering over the FF icon in the Windows Task Bar shows the thumbnails of the pages. But clicking any of the thumbnails to bring the browser window up fail.

    I can right click the FF icon in the task bar and click Open New Window, and a new blank window appears, but none of the existing tabs will open.

  • Thinkvanta​ge Toolbox icon on the Windows Task Bar

    I have tried removing the Thinkvantage icon from the task bar; but it returns when I reboot.  Am I missing something?

    ok, you guys are going to love me, or everyone else having this issue at least.   Its not a total fix, but asthesically it works. 
    Issue: Thinkvantage Toolbox icon hijacks the "explorer" icon. 
    to get it back 
    first if you have modified the properties of Thinkvantage Toolbox - then change it back.
    Start > all programs > Thinkvantage Toolbox > right click > properties > target = (paste this in there) 
    C:\Windows\explorer.exe ::{26EE0668-A00A-44D7-9371-BEB064C98683}\2\::{A8A9​1A66-3A7D-4424-8D24-04E180695C7A}\Provider%5CMicro​soft.Base.DeviceDisplayObjects//DDO:%7B00000000-00​00-0000-FFFF-FFFFFFFFFFFF%7D\cat{8AA6B0C2-14A6-4da​8-BF36-F7D93ACE9ACE}
    Next - right click on the pinned Thinkvantage Toolbox icon > right click where it says Thinkvantage Toolbox > target = %windir%\explorer.exe > in the same window > Change icon > the look for icons path is corrupt > paste %windir%\explorer.exe in the bar, then choose the "folder" icon. > OK > OK > DONEEE!!!!!
    Thinkvantage Toolbox = opens Thinkvantage Toolbox
    windows explorer icon = opens libraries directory. 
    You're welcome. 

  • Forté Icon in the Window Title Bar.

    Hi,

    Example:

    No. The image will remain in memory until either the VI is closed or IMAQ Dispose.vi is called.
    - If IMAQ WindClose is called, the display window will disappear, but the image in memory will be available in memory for further processing.
    If you use IMAQ WindShow, you have the ability to get the status of the display window (showing or hidden).
    - It also allow you to set if the display window is to show or hide.

  • Under firefox 4 i no longer see the padlock icon in the lower right of the screen when i log onto a secure site

    The padlock icon is no longer visible for any site that requires a login

    One of the main principles of Human Computer Interaction [HCI] is that there should be immediate visibility to the system's status. Forcing the user to "click" the identity site key and try to locate the lock-pad encryption icon is poor design. The icon has become a default standard expectation of the INTERNET user community across browsers. Internet Explorer, of which, I'm not a fan - has done away with a bottom bar, yet retained the padlock in the top right of the menu bar [it is conditionally displayed only when the site is secure]. Firefox has made a fundamental UI mistake, and amazingly trumped by the generally inferior Microsoft team. Don't follow the FF team and parrot the propaganda - 'yea we screwed up but you can determine the same thing by taking several extra steps- because we are FF team and you are just the peon users". Death of the open source community?

    Hello ozne,
    as a first step please have a look at these "General infos about the Adobe Account"
    https://www.adobe.com/account.html and http://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/global/find-serial-number.html.
    Did you purchase your product from these firms like Amazon? If yes, this is not a serial number, only a code with which you can request a serial number from Adobe. Please have a look at http://helpx.adobe.com/x-productkb/global/find-serial-number.html. (Start here: How did you purchase your product?)
    The following part, so I just see at least, ceased to exist on my Adobe website, everything takes place in the link from above. I leave it as an info yet, it might still fit for you. For this purpose, please click your way through to your Adobe Store and find the button "Get Serial Number". Fill in the form and after a while you will get the real serial number.
    Good luck!

  • When I try to download Yosemite the icon in the doc reads "waiting" and never does anything. What can I do to start the download?

    I have a macbook pro operating on OS X software, version 10.6.8. I am trying to upgrade to the newest version (I'm clearly behind, I know) and when I click "get" in the app store the download drops into the dock and reads "OS X Yosemite--waiting" and the only option is to click "cancel download". I've restarted the download twice and restarted the computer once. I'm not sure what else to try. Suggestions?

    Try the download again. If it shows waiting, check the App Store Purchases tab for a Resume button. If there is none, let the download sit there. Sometimes Apple's servers bog down. I usually try downloading at night.
