Please reply to the list, not just to myself, Repy All is what you should do in most mailer software, I am copying the list on this.

So it is not a Gnucash problem, it is to do with your operating system.  Which OS and version are you using?

Hi:

I can copy the gnucash data from my desk top and back with no problem. However, when I place the flush card in my laptop it reads as "read only" I did edit the account and took the place holder check off as instructed and it did not help . Both computer and laptop or ubuntu 18.04 mate, and have the same user name and password. I was hoping to be able to travel with the laptop and keep gnucash current. Any suggestion?

Is it read only in the file manager or just in GC?
