I am running file synchronization (FS) on 2 Macs on my home network. I have version /dupe problems I've been solving on the Macs and a WD MyBookWorld ethernet connected 1 TB Drive. Yesterday I was syncing two directories on the WD drive and the process went fine until after the copy portion it locked up at "fixing permissions" with the status bar at halfway. I left it overnight. No Change in the morning - I Force Quit the app and rebooted. I logged into the WD drive this morning and "unlocked" all the file folders in both Public and Download shares. I do not use the WD software. BTW running the app fom Mac Mini 2.33Ghz cpu/120 gig SSD and 2 gig Ram

Tried again - same indications

Ideas?
