(Please go to Help menu > System Info to double check the exact version number)
Question or Description of Problem:I have just moved form Windows to Mac. Successfully (in spite of myself) transferred 20,000 photos over. They are on a Seagate external hard drive. Unfortunately I cannot move or rename photos. There is no such problem when connecting the EHD to the Windows PC.
On attempting to rename a photo I get the message: "Some photos will not be named because they are missing or not writable".
I have tried reinstalling Lightroom to no avail. Lightroom is the only download to the new computor so far - apart from Firefox although Lightroom installation preceded this.
I have also tried using previous backup catalogues with previous backup library databases to no avail either.
I would be grateful for assistance.
Regards
Joseph
