The read-only attribute on a folder shouldn't prevent you from copying it. Files and folders on a CD-R are also read-only and it's possible to copy them. But I think you ought to tell us what message you are getting if we are to make some little more sense of your message. On 2 June 2011 18:04, Solomon Mburu Kamau <solo.mburu@gmail.com> wrote:

You could have access to view the top level folder. Could you please check that you have correct permission/ownership to view all the contents within the folder first, before you try copying it . Could really help with letting us know what that error message . Thanks Vincent

Also check file format to where you are copying to On Thu, Jun 2, 2011 at 8:37 PM, Vincent Wayodi <wayodi@gmail.com> wrote:
