Is ProPhoto.icm's permissions suppose to be set to Read Only in CS2/OS X?

I went rummaging around Application Support>Adobe>Color>Profiles and found ProPhoto.icm is set to Read Only as seen in the Get Info Window in CS2 OS 10.3.9.
All the other profiles in this folder are set to Read and Write as are the rest of the Colorsync profiles in the system. Colorsync Utility's Profile First Aid reports ProPhoto needs fixing reporting "Header white point is not D50". Of course it can't fix it because it reports it is locked.
Is there a reason it's locked or is this a repair permission issue?
The only way for me to make ProPhoto Read and Write is to drag a copy to the desktop and change it in the Get Info Window. It's grayed out when it's in the Application Support folder.
I'm using a third party RAW converter-(Raw Developer) with ProPhoto set as my output space and I'm wondering if this permission setting is causing it to randomly crash.

Ok - I understand now, but I'm not able to duplicate this behavior. When I create a group web calendar that anyone can view but only group members can edit, clicking on a time block (to create a new event) opens a login window. I noted that while it does appear to create an event, but when I navigate away from, then back to the web calendar, that event is no longer there. Also, it doesn't show up in the 'Upcoming Events' sidebar on the Wiki's home page.
If I double-click on an existing event, the event opens as if it's going to allow me to edit it. But once I click the 'OK' button, a login window opens. Still, it seems as if I was able to edit the event...until I navigate away, then back to the web calendar page. Then all changes are gone. So it does give the illusion that events can be created/edited by non-group members.
By any chance, are you logged in as a non-group member when you try to create/edit a calendar event, and are these users included in the list of those that can create Wiki's in Server Admin?
BTW: I'm not using Sunbird.

Permissions on Android AT200 removable SD card set to read only

Recently the removale SD card on my at200 has been set to read only for all but a few applications. This mean that when editing or trying to save, copy docs on the SD card I get the "not enough permissions" message. Any editing by these applications requires shifting files to onboard SD card and back again.
Toshiba file manager is able to rw OK, but my other file manager fails, as does ezy PDF.
Reading the attributes of the SD card show that it is set to rw for data.p (permissions XML). But looking at info from file manager shows sdcard directories and files set to dr- or -r-.
Is there some way of getting this changed to allow access for all my installed apps? Or even some?
Cheers
rabel

MisterX,
Found this note from zc2 on the xda forum dealing with the same issue December 2011.
"The owners of Honeycomb-powered tablets experience a problem writing to the external SD card, because since v3.2 the permissions for the files there were changed from sdcard_rw to media_rw.
According the file /system/etc/permissions/platform.xml, any application with declared permission "android.permission.WRITE_MEDIA_STORAGE" should be included to that media_rw group.
But that won't happen.
I made a test application to show the group membership (it just executes the "id" command), and according to its output, the application is not member of the media_rw group, despite the "android.permission.WRITE_MEDIA_STORAGE" permission is mentioned in its manifest.xml"
This is somewhat confirmed by a comment returned to me from the AntTek File Explorer developers on an interum work around for this problem (a common one since 3.2)
"While waiting, the simple solution, if your device is rooted, is as follows:
1. Using AntTek File Explorer, active Native mode from application preference.
2. Navigate to /system/etc/permissions.
3. Open platform.xml and find the WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE permission.
4. Add an additional group definition for this permission: <group gid="media_rw" />. It will grant AntTek Explorer (and other applications) permission to writing to removable SD Card. After edited, it will look like:
<permission name="android.permission.WRITE_EXTERNAL_STORAGE">
<group gid="sdcard_rw" />
<group gid="media_rw" />
</permission>
5. Save the changes to the file.
6. Restart your tablet."
My tablet is not rooted so this was not available to me, but it appears this is a major issue for Honeycomb, including the version on the AT200. Is there any plans to fix this bug do you think? Or is there a date for the promised update to ICS for the AT200, another prime selling point.
Cheers

Accidently changed the "ownership & permissions" access admin setting to "read only"

In the "Get Info" window on my MacBook hard drive icon, I accidently changed the "ownership & permissions" access admin setting to "read only" & now it won't re-boot the operating system. Just displays the Apple logo & running wheel on a white screen . Any advice on how best to re-set/restore would be very much appreciated, thanks

This might help. Otherwise, it might be necessary to reinstall.

My itunes keeps asking me to set my permissions. they are set to read and write for all accounts, admin, everybody, etc. don't know why it won't let me download

my itunes keeps asking me to set my permissions. they are set to read and write for all accounts, admin, everybody, etc. don't know why it won't let me download

Ever find a real solution to this? I just posted something similar - been having the issues ever since I started using the mac.
I have 5 mac accounts: 2 of those are admins.
After I installed every program I may possibly want, I redid all my user accounts (as I had been having a lot of permissions issues before that). My (admin) account downloads fine. Another admin account, set up exactly as mine, periodically gets prompted that it doesn't have the right to download.
To avoid duplication, I have a /common/music directory for all itunes accounts music. We have to periodically do a recursive permissions deal on the 2nd admin account so it can put music there, even though that directory is read/write for everyone. Apple's never been able to help me on this...

When a win7 users accesses a file on the server the permissions on the file revert to read only.

Hi there,
Originally my enviroment was 100% Mac, but now we have merged with another company who are all PC users.
The issue I'm having is when a Windows 7 client accesses a file on the Snow Leopard server the file becomes Read Only, and I have to manually propergate the permissions to fix it. This isn't an issue with XP users.
So far this is only happening with Excel files.
Is anyone else experiencing this issue? Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Cheers,
J

I'm having a similar issue as well. Excel 2007 appears to be the culprit, but hard for me to say. Running 10.6.8 here as well.

Safari 5.1 file permissions of com.apple.Safari.plist (Read only impossible???)

Hi everyone,
i try to set the user agent to a differnt string. To be sure that the changes in com.apple.Safari.plist are valid i copied the file after i set safari to the changes i want it to have. i did not write anything into the file by hand. Then i set the permission to the file to Read only for my user and copied the file back to ~/Library/Preferences.
After starting safari it sets everything back to its defaults. Safari also changes the file permissions back to read&write for my user. How can i write protect this file?
If thats not possible, does anyone have an idea how to set the user-agent of safari to another string as default value? btw. i also would like to know how to set private mode to on by default.
I don't want to change my browser just because a simple configuration file's permission cannot be set permanently.
Thanks for your help!

after searching a long time i found a solution for the user-agent problem. Well it's not what i wanted in the first place, but at least this works. I can hide the user agent with the use of a small caching proxy server called "polipo".
Polipo can be found here: http://www.pps.jussieu.fr/~jch/software/polipo/
I'm not sure if there are precompiled binaries available. I compiled it from source using the gcc environment shipped with xcode by executing "./configure", "make" and "sudo make install".
To run it at startup i used this plist file:
?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<!DOCTYPE plist PUBLIC "-//Apple//DTD PLIST 1.0//EN" "http://www.apple.com/DTDs/PropertyList-1.0.dtd">
<plist version="1.0">
<dict>
    <key>Disabled</key>
    <false/>
        <key>Label</key>
        <string>fr.jussieu.pps.polipo</string>
        <key>ProgramArguments</key>
        <array>
                <string>/usr/local/bin/polipo</string>
                <string>-c</string>
                <string>/etc/polipo.conf</string>
        </array>
        <key>RunAtLoad</key>
        <true/>
    <key>OnDemand</key>
    <false/>
    <key>UserName</key>
    <string>root</string>
    <key>GroupName</key>
    <string>daemon</string>
</dict>
</plist>
i saved it under the name fr.jussieu.pps.polipo.plist in /Library/LaunchDaemons/.
then i modified the example configuration file from the source package and saved it to /etc/polipo.conf. This is the essential modification to hide the user agent:
censoredHeaders = user-agent
There are more options available to censor the Headers and to increase privacy (set-cookie2, cookie2, from, x-pad, link, accept_language).
after that i started the daemon:
sudo launchctl load /Library/LaunchDaemons/fr.jussieu.pps.polipo.plist
at last i configured my proxy settings of osx to my new local proxy for http:
host: 127.0.0.1
port: 8118
that should do it ... i hope this is usefull for someone else ...
please note: hiding the user-agent or blocking cookies may cause websites not to act normal.

Permissions sticking to read-only when folders copied to local drive

Hello! So... I have a sharepoint that is read-only (archived jobs) everything works fine, but when people copy a folder to their local drive, they are forced to enter the server admin password when they try to move it to the their trash. If they copy individual files, they can erase those, but folders are retaining the server's permissions.
Everyone is on 10.5.6, I tried making the group both POSIX and ACL and it didn't make a difference.
Is there a fix? THanks - Don

Please provide a read-out of your file stricture using *ls -ela* for the directory in question, and showing a file that, when copied, becomes read-only.
Generally speaking, when a file is copied, the copy's permissions are set like this:
* The POSIX permissions are preserved. So if they are rw-rw-r-- (0664), then they remain that way on the copy. Note that umask behavior would put those at rw-r--r-- (0644) by default.
* The POSIX owner is changed to the action-bearing user. The action-bearing user is the one that performs the copy, so that's typically the currently logged-in user. Where the user is defined (either locally or via remote directory does not matter.)
* The POSIX group is changed to match the POSIX group assigned to the copy's parent folder.
* Any explicit ACLs will be preserved on the copy, if the destination filesystem supports them. (Destination filesystem ACL support is turned on in 10.5 client by default, but not in 10.4 or 10.3 client.)
* Any inherited ACLs as defined on the original will not be set on the copy.
* The copy will inherit any inheritable ACLs as defined on its new parent.
Now I'll take a wild guess: Since you're having this problem with 10.4 and 10.3 clients, I'm thinking that the POSIX permissions of the original file have the POSIX owner set to read-only. This would produce a read-only copy because the POSIX permissions are preserved! There is a reason for the default umask and create masks that set POSIX owner to read and write!
Of course, if this is the case, then the copy's POSIX owner can change the permissions on it and open it with read-write access.

I mounted my external hard drive to a pc and now I don't have edit or write permissions on my Mac (read only). How do I get them back without erasing the drive?

Hello all, I am a photographer and have my portfolio, edited and raw images backed up on a Seagate Free Agent External Hardrive. I mounted my external hard drive to a pc recently and now I don't have edit or write permissions to it on my Mac (read only). How do I get them back without erasing the drive and loosing my valuable work?

If you re-format it you will lose all the data on it!!!!! So make sure you have backed up the drive or moved all the data on it to another external HD or the internal HD on your iMac.
Below is an Apple Advice letter that explains how to format an external HD, it's written for Aperture but you can use the instructions to formate any external HD.

How to fix permissions so everyone in office can read

In our office, we have two MacBook Pros (running Mavericks 10.9.2) and a Mac mini (running 10.7.5).
We're routinely running into problems reading & writing on the Mac mini for files and folders.
For instance, from my MacBook Pro, I just created a new folder under another folder on our Mac mini. I saved 3 files there from my MacBook Pro.
But, now the person using the Mac mini can't open those files.
What's more is that, even though I created the folder and saved the files there, I can't change permissions for Staff or Everyone from "Read Only" to "Read & Write."
How can we permanently default all files on one MacBook Pro and the Mac mini to "Read & Write" access for everyone?
And, how can we create these same defaults for all files & folder ever created on the Mac mini?
Thank you for any help you can provide.

Create a sharing-only user on the file server in the Users & Groups preference pane. Make that user the owner of all the files in the sharepoint. All real users can then connect to the server as the new user and have full access to the files.

Permit user to administrate Model AND have read-only attributes

This issue concerns SQL Server Master Data Services 2012
I have a scenario where the same user is handling data and doing version management. Now I want to make one attribute in one specific entity read-only as I want to make sure the attribute is never changed.
The problem is, as soon as I set the read-only privilege on the attribute, the user
loses all administrative rights on the entire model. This, of course, includes version management.
I've tried working around the issue by making sure the user has explicit update permissions on both the model and the entity (and all attributes except the one I need read-only). But the result is the same.
Does anyone know a workaround?

Hi,
I think if you explicitly grant the update permissions, it should work. According to the MSDN doc. Could you please check if the user belongs to other hierarchy?
When a member belongs to multiple hierarchies
Two or more hierarchies can contain the same member.
•If one hierarchy node is assigned Update permission and another is assigned Read-only, then the members in the node are Read-only.
•If one hierarchy node is assigned Update or Read-only permission and another node is assigned Deny, then the members in the node are not displayed.

Unable to access permissions/ Macintosh HD Read only?

I was trying to install Mavericks when I realized I had no ability to do so. When the prompt for my password was given, I typed it in, and entered. It was accepted, but nothing happened. The window stayed at the same page.
I went on to system preferences and tried to unlock my "Users and Groups" menu, but after entering the password, it seems nothing happen. It just remains as it was.
I later found out my Macintosh HD has been set to Read Only for wheel and everyone, but System retains Read and Write permissions. Is someone able to help me? Many thanks.

For whatever reason, I decided to trash the Envelope Index in the Mail Library. I don"t know why I did this but it worked. Thank goodness.

Hi just bought an external hard drive and can't change the sharing and permissions from read only status. How do i change it?

Hi new to macs and dont know how to change the sharig and permissions to my external hard driive from read only mode. please help

Get Info on your drive from the Finder - you'll see a dialog box like this:
If the Privilege is set to Read Only for the user, simply click on the "Read Only" and change it to "Read & Write".
Is that what you're looking for?

EXFAT formatted USB stick - sharing permissions wrong - Read Only - Cannot Reformat - Help please!

EXFAT formatted USB stick - sharing permissions wrong - Read Only - Cannot Reformat - Help please!
Hi.
Having various problems with a USB stick that is formatted in EX-FAT.
It was working fine for a long period.
Yesterday I lent it to a friend to put some things on it.
Now when I try and work on it, I get messages like this.
Mac OS X can’t repair the disk “Disk Name"
You can still open or copy files on the disk, but you can’t save changes to files on the disk. Back up the disk and reformat it as soon as you can.
It will also randomly eject the drive.
I have tried to reformat it multiple times, in mac and windows.
[I have never used it in windows previous to this occasion of needing to reformat].
In windows, it crashes the disk when I attempt to format with disk manager [I attempted this due to advice in an internet article].
In Mac , I cannot even try to reformat it, because for some reason the permissions on the USB stick have been set to "read only" and I cannot find any way to change them to read-write, or full permissions, or whatever is appropriate.
I have tried "erase" disk in disk utility. I know how to do a full reformat, but it simply will not allow me to do so.
All the options are greyed out.
Does anybody have any information or links they can point me to?
I've been searching around.
Thanks very much in advance for any advice received.
Running latest mountain lion , 10.8.4, and windows 7 through VMware fusion.

Start over:
select the drive > select the Partition tab > select 1 Partition
select Option > select GUID Partition Table > select OK
name it > click the Apply button > then lastly click Partition

DI API - accessing objects with Read only permissions

Scenario: I have setup a user in B1 with "Read Only permissions" on the Business Partner. When I log into the DI API as this user and try instantiating the BP object, I get a message "Loged on user does not have permissions".
Why am I getting this? Shouldnt I be able to instantiate the object and read the property values. i understand that I cannot Add or Update because of read only permissions.
Is there a way we can retreive values for users using the DI API or should the best option be to write a SQL statement.
Thanks,
Gopal

Requiring the user to have full authorization to instantiate an object is a serious limitation for the DI API. It makes it virtually useless. After all it is supposed to be OOP and all the trimmings isnt it? It also takes a lot of control away from the user.

Hi,
I have confirmation from B1 product definition, the DI API access for objects with Read only permissions will not be included in the 2007A version. It will be considered for the following version after 2007A.
There is a chapter called "Authorization Checks" in the SDK Help file specifying:
"SAP Business One performs authorization checks for the business objects and the infrastructure and meta data objects. If a user does not have full authorization to access the objects in SAP Business One, the user will not have permission to access the data belonging to the business objects using the DI API."
