    I can't open my harddisk on another computer !


    I'm using Windows 7 on my laptop and I have a Seagate 500Gb Portable HD.
    I don't when this problem started and how ? Yesterday when i plugged in my Hard Disk on my friends Computer running Windows 7 ,the Harddisk din't opened.On clicking the Folder it said You don't have the permission to open the folder...

    But when i plugged in my HD back on my laptop it worked perfectly.But the problem remains same whenever i plug in the drive in another PC/Laptop.

    Help me out

    when you connect HDD to your pc where you have access check your permissions on the HDD.
    Properities and open security tab..

    As the folders are made with admin rights in your computer, it is rejecting to open in another one. What you need is to take ownership of the folders in the other computer.
