Newly transferred images from macpro to macbook external hd not functioning correctly in LRCC

Having a few issues with macbook pro 12.5.1 and lightroom cc. i'm thinking its a permissions issue?
Recently migrate loads of images from macpro to external hard drive and imported them into a newer lightroom cc app on macbook.
I have no issues with current images that i've taken. LR will allow me to delete, move files and rename without issue. Some of my older files I can't move, rename or delete within LRCC.  When I try to delete from actual folder on External, i get the finder permissions window which asks for password in order to delete those files. I've been using LR since the beginning and haven't come across this type of behavior. 
All the folders/files are set to read/write permissions.

thanks for the link. unfortunatley this didn't fix my LR issues. However it did seem to fix my deleting those files from my finder without the permissions pop up window. It now just asked me to hit the fingerprint button to delete.

i did notice however when i pulled up the full access folder,  LR and PS had the tick box next to the ONEDRIVE which was linked to LR and PS. Not sure why LR and PS are linked to onedrive? All my photos are on external? This might be my issue? Not sure how to disconnect from onedrive. Will search for an answer. ..

Please post a screenshot because what you say does not make any sense. You cannot 'pull up the full access folder'. This is not a folder, but a security settings in MacOS System Preferences and the 'folder' is just an icon that Apple used. They could have used a disk icon as well, which would have made a bit more sense, perhaps. Onedrive has nothing to do with this, it's not even an Apple product. But perhaps there is a Onedrive app that has full access too and so it's in the same list?
