10.5: Solve a repair permissions issue after 10.5.8 update
I never repair permissions. There is no need and I never have problems. If permissions are screwed up, it is user error.
re: incorrect permissions exclusively due to user error
I agree that there is a great deal of paranoia surrounding this issue, but what you are saying is just not true.
re: incorrect permissions exclusively due to user error
The Quark 7 (and possibly 6, I don't remember) installer was horrible in that it reset the permissions on every file in the folder enclosing the new Quark folder, which, in most cases, would be your Applications folder. I actually had a Quark representative on site when I discovered this, and his eyes got real big when I showed it to him (the permissions repair after that took 30-40 minutes of constant scrolling in the Repair Permissions window.) The workaround was to make a new, empty folder and then tell Quark to install inside of THAT folder, then after installation, move the newly-created Quark folder into the main Applications.

nice answer. Do you say the same thing if you get a flat tire on your car? |
