Files Dissapear after Setting Inherit Permission Model

Our workgroup was continually having read only problems working on files that we each had created locally.
After reading this:
When to use Inherit Permissions
Generally, a share point should use the standard permissions model, since it will make new files in the same manner as those created locally on a client volume. Some programs may depend on this, even when storing data files on a network volume.
However, if your use of the server includes the need to share and communally-edit data files such as word processing documents, graphics, or other application program data, use Inherit Permissions on the share point that stores the shared data.
Warning: Inherit Permissions should never be used on a share point that hosts users' home directories.
I created a test share point and changed the permissions to inherit. Success! All documents that we placed on the server at this point were able to be edited and saved by various users.
I applied these same settings to the rest of our server and our most recent project folder vanished!
Our files are in a folder inside the Users folder on the server, is that the reason why we had this problem? Should our share point be somewhere else on the server?
Any help would be appreciated.

Check if you have the Adobe PCD and SLStore folder available under /Library/Application Support/Adobe. Is so, then follow the solutions mentioned unde the below article.

If you donot see those folders, you might have accidently deleted them. Re-install will be the best option.

Illustrator files dissapear after saving files

hi
we are all working on a network, mac computers all running mavericks. It started to happen few days ago that .ai files dissapear after editing and saving.
any solution?
Thanks!

gonzalom,
It is always recommended here to open/save from/to own hard disk, and to copy from/to networks and removable media. You may be lucky (for a while), but the chances of file corruption and other unpleasantnesses are immensely greater when you use anything but the harddisk, and it is better to be safe than sorry.
In addition to the (far greater) risk of file corruption, some issues are mentioned here:

File dissapears after transfering through finder...

This is starting to get to me. I have two finder windows open, im transfering a file from one finder window to another finder window(on our internal network at work, this also is occuring when uploading to our FTP through the finder) and after appearing to have succesfully transfered the file goes poof! dissapears. It is not cosmetic because i've checked on another comp as a different user and it is not there. Pleeeeaassee help.

Try cutting and pasting the file/s.

Keeping tree expanded after setting a new model for JTree

I want to replace a Jtree with a new model and then expand a certain row on the tree. How is this done? Otherwise how do I get the TreeNode of a particular row I want to expand so that when I replace the old model with the new one I could have the tree opened to the same node as before.
Mind you the models exchanged are similar but different by one node change (delete or add of something). I can't seem to use tree.expandRow(#). It doesn't work - doesn't expand.
Everytime I replace the old model with a new one I have to do a reload on the DefaultTreeModel to get the new data able to show on the Jtree. But, Now, I want this and then an expansion to the old state.
Please help.
Thanks in advance.
Code:
// in JTree
public void updateModelForAdd(DefaultTreeModel new_model) {
setModel(new_model);
new_model.reload();

Maybe you should just try to add the new node to (or remove it from) the old model, without replacing your model.
Or you have to keep track of the tree status and then apply it to the new model (correcting it with the change).

All desktop files dissapeared after sharing

Hope you can help me.
Recently I shared the desktop on my Macbook Air (mountain lion) so I could copy a file I had on my iMac (Mavericks) over the net.
Everything was ok and I could see the shared folder on my iMac so I copied over the file and waited until it was done but when I checked the Macbook air's desktop all previous files and folders were GONE!
I could only see the newly copied file.
I tried searching for the files all over my Macbook without any luck. The trash had some previous files there and it was not emptied so there was no deletion at all, but for some reason the files are not there.
Now, when I get the info for my user in the Macbook Air I see it is about 7.5Gb, but when I get the info on the individual folders, the total amount is about 3.5Gb, which means the files must be there somewhere.
I enabled the root user so I could make a search in the hard drive in case there was a permissions issue but could not find them either. I also ran a recovery tool but it didnt find any of the files.
I recreated the user as instructed and still no luck!
Any help will be appreciated!
Thanks!

Hey John, sorry to hear about your issue. It sounds pretty baffling.
Let's see if we can isolate the problem. Go to the desktop and right click=>Get Info. Is the "Locked" box towards the middle checked? Under "Sharing & Permissions" at the bottom of the window, are the privileges of your current user account listed as "Read only?"

Set content type based on file extension after uploading into document library

when there are multiple content types associated with a document library, say, report builder report, and excel documents, after you drag and drop a document into the document library, content type will not be detected based on the file extension. Suppose
your default content type is document, and you had added the report build report content type, and you uploaded a .RDL file, the content type for the file will be set to the default document content type.
I get a requirement to update the content type automatically based on the file extension, what follows is my code:
public class setCNTByFileExtItemAdded : SPItemEventReceiver
/// <summary>
/// An item was added.
/// </summary>
public override void ItemAdded(SPItemEventProperties properties)
if (properties.Web.GetFile(properties.AfterUrl).Exists)
SPListItem CurrentListItem = properties.Web.GetFile(properties.AfterUrl).Item;
String FileName = CurrentListItem.Name;
if (FileName.EndsWith(".rdl",StringComparison.OrdinalIgnoreCase))
CurrentListItem.Properties["ContentTypeId"] = "0x010100C3676CDFA2F24E1D949A8BF2B06F6B8B";
CurrentListItem.SystemUpdate(false);
base.ItemAdded(properties);
What follows are references that helped me:

HT1941 I have inadvertently changed a file permission setting. When opening Aperture I get the following; Aperture cannot access this library. To use this library make sure it's file permissions are set correctly. I am an old dude new to Mac OS. What up?

I have inadvertently changed a file permission setting. When opening Aperture I get the following; "Aperture cannot access this library. To use this library make sure it's file permissions are set correctly". I am an old dude new to Mac OS. Looked in settings but have no idea how to allow file sharing to myself. I have been using Aperture actively for 6 weeks. I'm the only one using this Mac. What up?

Back up all data now.
This procedure will unlock all your user files (not system files) and reset their ownership and access-control lists to the default. If you've set special values for those attributes on any of your files, they will be reverted. In that case, either stop here, or be prepared to recreate the settings if necessary. If none of this is meaningful to you, you don't need to worry about it.
Step 1
If you have more than one user account, and the one in question is not an administrator account, then temporarily promote it to administrator status in the Users & Groups preference pane. You can demote it back to standard status when this step has been completed.
Launch the Terminal application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid.
Drag or copy — do not type — the following line into the Terminal window, then press return:
sudo chflags -R nouchg,nouappnd ~ $TMPDIR.. ; sudo chown -R $UID:20 ~ $_ ; chmod -R -N ~ $_ 2> /dev/null
Be sure to select the whole line by triple-clicking anywhere in it. You'll be prompted for your login password, which won't be displayed when you type it. You may get a one-time warning not to screw up. You don't need to post the warning. If you don’t have a login password, you’ll need to set one before you can run the command.
The command will take a noticeable amount of time to run. Wait for a new line ending in a dollar sign (“$”) to appear, then quit Terminal.
Step 2
Boot into Recovery by holding down the key combination command-R at startup. Release the keys when you see a gray screen with a spinning dial.
When the OS X Utilities screen appears, select Utilities ▹ Terminal from the menu bar. A text window opens.
In the Terminal window, type this:
resetpassword
That's one word with no spaces. Then press return. A Reset Password window opens. You’re not going to reset a password.
Select your boot volume ("Macintosh HD," unless you gave it a different name) if not already selected.
Select your username from the menu labeled Select the user account if not already selected.
Under Reset Home Directory Permissions and ACLs, click the Reset button.
Select  ▹ Restart from the menu bar.

Set Folder Permission with CSV File

I currently have a batch file that I use to set the folder permission on a users folder. The batch file of course requires me to manually set two variables. I'd like to have a master csv file containing this info and a powershell script to allow
me to set these permission much more quickly. Here's my current batch file:
Set User=123A
Set Folder=123
icacls C:\Data\%folder% /grant %user%:(OI)(CI)F
My csv file would appear as 123A,123
I did do a search and found a few posts on this subject, but couldn't wrap my head around how to modify them to fit my needs.
Kevin

FOR /F "eol=; tokens=1,2* delims=, " %%i in (myfile.txt) do icacls C:\Data\%%j /grant %%i:(OI)(CI)F
¯\_(ツ)_/¯

After setting up a new user on my Air, can I still access Setup Assistant to transfer files from my old Mac?

Only after setting up my user account on my new Air do I find out about Setup Assistant vs Migration Assistant. Since, I have tried Migration Assistant - via wireless - twice, to no avail. Both computers (new Mac and old) just stay busy looking for another computer on my network. All I really want to do is move/copy everything from my old Mac to the new Air. Suggestions? Miracles? Thanks!
Clay

You can do it wirelessly, but that will take some time... you could also purchase a Thunderbolt to Ethernet adapter or a Thunderbolt to FireWire adapter. That would certainly be faster. You should be able to purchase either adapter at your local Apple Store or at the online Apple Store.
Good luck,

POSIX to Inherit Permission

Can you switch from POSIX to Inherit Permission under the AFP services with out any issues. I am guessing it would be a good idea to delete the .ds store files as well as run disk utility on the drive correct?

You can inherit permissions if using ACLs when the volume you want to share folders from are handled by ACLs. The first folder/volume "level" in a "share" are never using inherited permissions though.
If you want to use Panther style inherited permissions the volume can't be set to be "handeled" by ACLs.
If changing from handled/not handeld by ACLs on a "share"-volume - reboot.
Check that ACLs are in effect by checking info on a shared folder (looks different than on a non ACL handled volume).
If you want/need inherited permissions on a Tiger server - use ACLs.

Can't import movies to iTunes after setting up iTunes Match

Hi. I setup iTunes Match a couple of weeks ago (love it, btw), but for some reason since I set it up I can no longer import .m4v files into the Movies library. There is no error, they just never copy over.
iTunes 10.6.1(7) 64-bit on MacPro running OS X 10.7.3
Any ideas? Maybe its a strange coincidence, but I noticed the problem shortly after setting up Match.

Also, iTunes match gets stuck sometimes so you have to log out of match and log back in before your imported movies show up in your iTunes library.

"No bootable device --- insert boot disk and press any key" after setting up Bootcamp

Hi guys,
I am trying to install Windows 7 via Bootcamp but after setting up Bootcamp and restarting the computer I get the error message "No bootable device --- insert boot disk and press any key".
I use an iMac with a DIY Fusion Drive consisting of a 120 GB SSD and a 1 TB HDD.
Since Bootcamp can only be installed on the HDD I believe disk1 is the interesting one. Here is the output of sudo gpt -r -vv show disk1:

I have gdisk installed and am ready to mess around. Any help would be greatly appreciated!

So, when I started my iMac yesterday morning it couldn't boot into OS X anymore either. Several hours of restoring later I am back to square one. I tried installing Windows 7 via Bootcamp again but got the same error message. This time I noticed though that Bootcamp asked me to remove the bootable option from the USB drive with the support drivers in order to install from DVD. Does that ring any bells? I am building another USB drive right now, hoping it would ask me again but this I will decline and try to boot from it.
When you restored, was a Time Machine restore used? TM does not backup Bootcamp and does an erase of the partition. It may also erase the entire disk (including the Fusion drive) if the specific backup of the volume layout of the disks indicates a pre-Bootcamp layout.
My MacBook Pro is a 2009 model and also once had a built-in optical drive. I have no idea why it would work on there but not on the iMac.
You also wrote
When I plug the external DVD drive in, the boot manager recognizes a "Windows" disc and an "EFI Boot" disc. If I select the "Windows" disc I get a black screen with a blinking dash.
The blinking dash indicates that it is working, but does not have the requisite drivers to enable the GPU/Mouse/Keyboard on the media being used.
In the MBP case, did you have two drives installed in the MBP, a Fusion configuration, and then were able to successfully install Bootcamp?
For example on a Mac mini I have a DIY Fusion drive, but the sequence was done differently. Bootcamp was installed using a USB stick+Windows 7 ISO.
1. The two disks are not in a CoreStorage set up initially.
2. The second disk is partitioned (64Gb) and a Bootcamp W7 install completed via USB (this is different HW as compared to IMac, because it has no Optical drive).
3. After the HDD is partitioned, the first partition and the SSD are then used to create a CoreStorage volume.
4. Here is the working version and disk layout. (I plan to erase both disks, put W7 on a partition on the SSD, and make the non-Bootcamp+entire HDD in a CoreStorage volume).
