Realistically, this problem needs hands-on scrutiny, looking at the entire server setup, networking, and clients. As a business, if your IT staff can't fix it, you need to pay to get someone to look at it. | |

| Jan 16, 2023 at 19:21 | comment | added | Megan McDemott | The message is: the operation can’t be completed because some items had to be skipped. From each item, Choose File, Get Info, make sure “Locked” and not designated as Read Only or No Access, try again. This message comes from updating work files and folders in and out the shared folder. Doesn’t seem to matter which I work from. | |
| Jan 13, 2023 at 20:50 | comment | added | Megan McDemott | What error messages do I get? The operation can’t be completed because you don’t have permission to access some of the items. And then the longer version as to why I don’t have permission. —— Right now I am working IN the shared folder. I created the work files in the shared folder. Everything works as it should. I delete what I don’t want once done. Even though I had just created the file and or folder that I then delete gives me the message about permissions. The folder updates but shows nothing. That’s why I delete to start over. This is a business setup. | |
