Re: Excel 2011, how can I change permissions

You can be getting an error notice when attempting to export Tally data in Excel format for a number of reasons.
You might attempt the following troubleshooting steps:

If you're trying to save the Excel file somewhere, be sure you have the right rights.
You might not have the required permissions to save the file if you are attempting to save it in a restricted place or on a network disk.
Try storing the file somewhere else, such your desktop or another folder.

Make sure you have enough space on your hard drive to save the file.It might not be possible to save the Excel file if your hard drive is full or nearly full.
Try removing unnecessary files or programs to free up some disk space.

Verify the file name and path for any special characters.
While saving the file, issues may occur if the file name or path contains special characters like slashes or colons.
Change the file's name while avoiding special characters.

Check to see if the Excel file is open already.
It might not be possible to save the file if it is open in another program or instance of Excel.
Close any open Excel windows, then try exporting the file once more.

A different format might be tried for the file's export.
Try exporting the file in an other format, such as CSV or PDF, if you are unable to save the file in Excel format.

If none of these fixes the problem, you might need to contact Tally support or your IT department for more help.

check the compatibility of the external hard drive. It might not support Mac. Probabely you external hard is in NTFS format and you need to reformat/re-partition it for using it in Mac OS.

Select the disk. folder, or file and choose File>Get Info. In the Get Info window, choose sharing and permissions pane to change.

there may be virus in your system or the problem may be related with your hard-disk reading

Different operating systems use different file systems. Normally they can't use other ones than their own. To write on NTFS file system (Windows) a Mac needs a special program - get it from here http://www.macupdate.com/info.php/id/26288

As long as the Esternal is formatted correctly it should work fine, it might be that you computer wont read the hard-drive, not the files.

simple just format it for PC first then it should work for both

if you format it for MAC first it will not work on the PC

simple

PC are horrible for accessing files

mac's are more user friendly

You should be able to change the permissions, if you Right click on the drive and go to properties and click on the sharing tab and click permissions. apologies if you have already tried this.
