I have all kinds of other files on this same shared folder written by various applications under XP (Word, Excel, etc).
As part of using the IBM ClearCase client for Eclipse under XP, when I establish a new view the client needs to create a new folder in which to write files. I have indicated the place for it to do so is a sub-folder of my shared folder. Both the Parallels shared folder and sub-folder I have indicated for the new view have all read/write permissions under OSX (as reported by getInfo).
The ClearCase wizard successfully creates a new folder in the sub-folder, and a file in this new folder. Then at the point it attempts to rename that file to something else, it errors out. The message indicates a permissioning problem (r-x permissions detected).
At this point if I look at the folder it created in the subfolder, it is reported in Windows XP as read-only!
In fact, I cannot change it from read-only within Windows XP.
Why is this the case?
Help!
regards,
Tad
Before buying the sofware.I`m using window xp service pack 2.My question is that can i install WMware Fusion in windows xp so that it will convert into Mac os x system and can i run all mac application in windows xp with the help of WMware Fusion.Is there any other software which can convert windows xp windows 7 or window vista into mac and i. I recently upgraded an almost all Mac shop to FileMaker 12 and most everything has worked great and it is performing faster than 11 did. But one of the clients is using Win XP emluation on a Mac because they need to use QuickBooks and FMP12 is excruciatingly slow for her.
