    thanks for responding sam. I do not have that option when i right click.

    Like i said I contacted the technical support for ClassicFTP for Mac and they said that i need to change the permissions of the files on my computer then upload to the server. But i didn’t think the folders i need to change are on my harddrive, just housed on the server..

    So I guess my main question is does anyone know if the wp-uploads, wp-content, etc folders are housed on your computer?? I thought these were created as temporary or permanant web folders housed only on the FTP server!!!

    Also if i changed FTP servers, do you know if i will encounter problems with my website?? And do you know if filezilla will work for a mac?

    thanks again

    Hi guys, i’ve been having trouble with this for a while and have given up! I get the same error Could not create directory. /public_html when trying to install the backup program.

    I do not understand how to change the permissions to 777. I use ClassicFTP on a MAC OSX and i have searched and searched on the FTP client to find where it gives you the option to do this.

    I even emailed the software company that makes ClassicFTP to ask them because I couldn’t find anything on any forums about it, everyone just acts like its so obvious! They stated that I have to change the permission on my actual hard-drive, not through the FTP client. But I don’t know where any of the WP folders are located on my computer… I thought they were created through the FTP client and not on my hard-drive.

    Can someone PLEASE help me, I’m pulling my hair out!! Baby steps please!
