Re: You do not have the permissions necessary to view the contents of "".

it appears to me that you are not administrator. as this may be your problem i do not know how to help you any further as i am not knowledgeable enough in that area. can someone please help this guy further.
Re: You do not have the permissions necessary to view the contents of "".
your ls output says that harout has all the ownership of the files. the group is harout and owner is also harout; that's why i suggested to copy your files as harout. did you try that ?
