    My new external hard drive wont let me move files onto it. I can only copy files then delete the old ones.

    any ideas?

    Maybe try reformatting the entire drive? Since it's new I assume data won't be an issue.

    You should reformat if its new. They usually preload that stuff with badly coded programs.
