Import not completing

[1Todd1]

I am not able to import from one of my SD cards into lightroom CC.  I get an error screen that says

"The following files were not imported because they can not be read or the destination folder is not writeable"

The events that took place leading up to this were

-I successfully imported a group of pictures from the card

-Started to import another group of pictures from the same card and it became hung up, wouldn't complete for whatever reason.  I stopped the process and removed the card. 

-I started the process over again.

-I have been able to import the images into apple photos so I know the card is good

-I have reinstalled Lightroom and continue to have the trouble

I would appreciate any help, I am new to Lightroom moving over from Aperture.  I have a reasonably strong computer ability but this has me stumped

Check to be sure the destination folder is writeable, and that you have WRITE permission to the destination folder.

Its the internal hard drive in my iMac.  I was able to write to the drive for the previous 300 photos imported 30 minutes earlier

Okay, if you're not going to check, that's up to you.

But that's what the message means, you don't have WRITE permission to the folder or the folder is set to read-only. Possibly, it could also happen because the Destination folder has (accidentally?) been changed to some place where the permissions are not WRITE permission.

I didn't mean to insult you,

Yes as You were responding I checked by right clicking over the My hard drive location in the right pane in library.

It did say read only under permissions.  How would that have changed between imports? I want to be able to keep it from happening again.  I am the only user

I don't know how these things change, but people report they do change.

It's not the permissions on the disk that are important, it's the permissions and read-only status of the Destination folder that are important.

it says

System, read and write

Wheel, read only

Everyone, read only
