unable to access Shared Folders from Mac OSX

Hi, I can't access my default Shared Folders like Shared Pictures, Shared Videos, Shared Music. I have the following error in Shared Pictures.  

 

The folder “Shared Pictures” can’t be opened because you don’t have permission to see its contents.

 

I am logged in with the same user that setup the Drive. No one else touches this. 

 

thx
