Help unlocking folder

[uplusd]

Hi,

I've got a folder on an airport disk that I locked a while ago (Finder > Get Info > checked off lock box)

Now I can not unlock the folder, which prevents me from renaming the folder. If I "Get Info" on the folder, the lock box is grayed out. I followed the following steps from the Apple site:

If the item you are trying to unlock is a folder,use these steps:

Open Terminal (/Applications/Utilities).
Type this, followed by a space: sudo chflags -R nouchg
Drag the folder you would like to unlock into the Terminal window.
Press Return.
Enter your password and press Return.

However, did this not work and the folder is still locked. Does anyone have any other ideas how I can get the folder unlocked?

Thanks

Are you the Admin of the account, or have admin rights?

That would explain why the box would be grayed out.

Yes I am the only user on my MBP and the admin as well.

Can you drag and drop to an external storage device?
