Ok, so what's the alternative?

Ok, so after a little digging, the easy fix was to change the read/write permissions for this folder. I know it's not the cleanest solution since it opens up read/write access to everyone, but it works. For reference: To check the read/write permissions of the folder, use this commane - "ls -al" you...

Ok, I'll try that next time. But since I'm a newb and want to avoid messing up the last day of setup, is there a way that I can change the existing permissionst to allow for what I want to do? How can I: 1- see the existing permissions for a directory to verify if there is read access? 2- add write ...

Update: So i fixed the issue somehow, just not sure how :-) But not I'm running into the same issue when post-processing. I'm guessing that the user that is running SickBeard doesn't have write permissions to the folder that it's trying to move the file to after post processing. How can I: 1- see th...

I didn't change any anything with the cifs mount so you're right that it's probably owned by root. How do I change the ownership? When I'm in the terminal, i can make directories and edit on the mount, but Sickbeard can't.

I'm having an issue with a application not being able to create a folder which I've confired is due to the fact that I don't have write access to that folder. I've spent about 5 hours on this trying to figure it out with forum answers and guides but not luck. Can anyone help me out where to start? T...

Ok, I'm a newb. Totally worked Thanks for your help!

I can use windows explorer to log into the Pi but I don't see any such directories. I'm guessing this this is windows vs linux. How ca...

Hey Jimmy,

Thanks for your reply. I realized that when I was using terminal, it was wrapping my text and I had a few line breaks in the code which ended up being errors.

After deleting the line breaks, all is good in the Pi-world

Thanks a bunch!

Hey all, So I have Kodi installed on my Pi and using the stock confluence skin which i like. However, I want to change the bubbles background to an image that I pull off the net. I have the images (1920x1080) and they're on my PC, however, how can I copy them over to the Pi, and set this image as my...

Hey all, Hope you can help me out with this one. I'm trying to mount a NAS to my raspberry pi local folder and using the following command sudo nano /etc/fstab and then adding this on the bottom: 192.168.178.113:/public/TVSeries /home/pi/TVSeries nfs nouser,atime,auto,rw,dev,exec,suid 0 0 however, w...

Hey All, So I've been using the Pi 2 Model B for a while now with my nas and Kodi and I'm loving it. I want to get a few of these around my apartment on different screens for watching shows off my NAS (maybe evening multiple Pis pulling media of a single NAS simultanously). Couple questions: 1- Whic...
