I only have one account on that machine, so I'm quite sure I'm logged in to the right account. The folder inside my User folder is ok, the probolem is with the other one that shows up in the left margin if I just open up "Mac HD" in the finder (together with the other shortcuts called "Desctop", "Applications", "Documents", "Movies" and "Music"). Perhaps that pix folder is an alias or so, but I have always thought of it as being a different one as the pix folder inside the User folder. Anyway, how can a folder I'm never using just change the permissions so that I, the Administrator, is left out? Really strange, because I never use that folder except for keeping some screensaver pictures.
