Somehow one of the System folders and another folder (and all of the folders within those two major folders) and my individual documents cannot be modified. When I try to drag another files/folders/documents into new locations, a message tells me, "The item .... could not be moved because "Folder" cannot be modified."

How do I undo this restriction? There are two choices in the message window, one says "Authenticate," and the other says "OK." If I click on "Authenticate," then I can type in my password and complete the action.

I cannot find any settings to undo this problem! Help please!!!

FYI - I had my hard drive crash and replaced and the data was restored from online data retrieval Mozy.
