Error You do not have access permission for the folder.

This happens when I try to choose the OneTouch for the destination folder for camera photo downloads.

The OneTouch was previously set-up with a PC and then I just purchased a Mac and am using it with that now. Did I need to re-format?

Any directions for a Mac product on changing the permission?

Thanks!

I don't know about permissions, but an external drive that was working on a PC may have been formatted with an NTFS file system, in which case Mac OSX will be able to read it, but not write to it, at least not natively.

Here is an open source NTFS driver for Mac OSX:

Here is a commercial product (Paragon NTFS for Mac OS X 8.0):
