Well Ive been using Macs a while but this has me stumped.
I have lots of big libraries of music, images and video and I want programs like Logic and Garageband to be able to access the libraries on a second SSD.
The problem is Monterey won't let me move the library to an external drive.
Any advice from you guys?

Can you check that the external drive is read/write or read only?

Sorted now.
I had to go to System Prefs/Security & Privacy/Privacy and allow full access for each of the apps I want to move stuff to.
Thanks @slowoldman
