Would appreciate any help I can get.

I bought in on the 200GB iCloud storage but iCloud backup doesn't work for Photo library stored on a network drive. I've been trying to copy the Photos Library.photoslibrary file from a network drive (wirelessly connected) to the local SDD. However, I am getting the no permission error message for some reason.

I am attaching the "info" from:

1) The network drive
2) the photo library itself
3) MacBook Pro SSD

One thing I don't understand is that under 1) and 2) I am not showing up as the admin or owner. Perhaps that's why I can't change the permission either.
