Re: Permissions #Security


 

Hi, Dan,
I copied and pasted what you wrote in the command line.
Still tells me I don¡¯t have the necessary permissions.
I entered the Home User Account password.
Thanks.

Doug, here's a Terminal command to repair permissions.

This is from an article on High Sierra permissions but I think it's the
same in Catalina.

1. Open ¡°Terminal¡°.
2. Type the following command, then press ¡°Enter¡°:

sudo diskutil resetUserPermissions / `id -u`

You will need to type your Home User Account password which will not
appear on the screen.

Tell us what happens.

That is the very first thing I did Dan. And I have done everything
after a ¡°supposed¡± fix.
I went through many fixes, none worked. That¡¯s why I was asking you
guys about
a Terminal fix so I have some control over my own Mac. I¡¯d also like
to reduce the
number of times I have to enter my password for such simple things as
moving a file
to the traxh.

Doug, do a Get Info on your boot drive icon.

Check the bottom section under Sharing & Permissions. Might need to
click the reveal triangle.

It should look like this Get Info window screen capture.

Does it?
