Permissions issues when trying to import CD

Question

When I try to import a CD to iTunes, it gives me the following error message :
"Error occurred while converting the file "SONG NAME". You do not have enough access privileges for this operation."
- iTunes could not save to your Music Folder and folders in your Music Folder, then converting this file again
THEN when I go to the info within the music folder to correct the permissions, it gives me another error message :
:" The operation cannot be completed because you do not have sufficuent privileges for some of the items"
the account I'm trying to do this from is the administrator account, so I'm not sure how to fix this so that I can import CDs again. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

You are not the first person to report this problem. I have had similar if not the same problem. I wanted to share files between users on the same computer. So I set up a shared folder for putting all music. In the preferences of iTunes I pathed to the same shared folder.
I made sure that the folder (and all sub-folders) had read/write permissions for me and the other user (wife). Now I can not import tracks of a CD into iTunes as I get the message that I don't have sufficient permissions! So I have gone into the disk utility to repair permissions. Still it doesn't work for me but oddly enough, my wife CAN import tracks into iTunes (pathed to the same location) when she is logged in.
I've searched for such in support and discussions and thought I have found others who noted the same problem no solutions have yet been posted.
