I just cant use any of the make commands.
Any ideas?

But nothing happened
The error returned is

try the pwd command. You are in curently in a directory that does let you write anything into it. Either reset permissions on the directory (and possibly the files there too) or copy everything over to a place where you do have full read/write access -
like a new subdirectory under you login directory.
