" I create a clone of my mac with CCCopy and restart the Mac Mini from this "clone"
7) I tried CMD + S and do FSCK but it gives me no problem
At this point I can access the hard disk of the Mac Mini (which is seen ..)
However, the user folders that I have to recover all appear with the access prohibition symbol; if I double click it tells me that I do not have the privileges"
I'll try to help.
You are saying you have cloned the internal to an external drive and can now boot from the EXTERNAL drive?
That's ok, booting from the external drive isn't the problem.
You have to "overcome" the permissions problems.
How to do this:
1. Boot from the EXTERNAL drive, get to the finder.
2. Let the icon for the INTERNAL drive mount on the desktop (do not open it)
3. Click ONE TIME on the icon for the internal drive
4. Bring up the "get info" box for it (type command-i)
5. At the bottom of get info, click the lock and enter your password (the one you are using for the external boot drive)
6. Put a checkmark into "ignore ownership on this volume" (sharing and permissions)
7. Close get info
NOW try copying items from your home folder on the internal drive to the external drive.
Does this go any better?
IMPORTANT TO KNOW:
You CANNOT copy "the top level of folders" in the home folder.
This means, you cannot copy the folders named documents, movies, music, pictures, etc.
HOWEVER -- you CAN copy everything that is INSIDE OF these folders.
So... you could copy your iTunes music folder if you want, or your "Photos Library".
When you do the "get info" trick above, all the items you copy will "come under the ownership" of your account on the external drive.
BE AWARE that even though you may use the same username and password on the external drive, the Mac may see the two accounts as "different" because they're on different drives. That's why you need to do the get info trick above.
