Read and Write Permissions in Dreamweaver CS3

I have searhed the web endlessly for what seems like a simple question? How do you set read and write permissions for an upload folder in dreamweaver cs3?
I finally came accross one forum which described.
You go to the files panel and change the drop down menu from "Local View" to "Remote View".
Then you select the upload folder you created and right click on it.
A pop up menu appears and you select "set permissions"
This is where I am ok to. My defualt permissions are set to 666. Does anyone know the number to set it to if i would like visitors to my site to be able tp upload files?
ps I am using windows vista and dreamweaver cs3.

My defualt permissions are set to 666. Does anyone know the number to set it to if i would like visitors to my site to be able tp upload files?
Try 775 first, but you will probably need to use 777, which is the least secure set of permissions. Normally, if you want to allow people to upload to your website, you should create a login system and allow only registered users to upload to a folder that has permissions set to such a weak level. Otherwise, you could lay yourself open to all sorts of abuse.

  • Mac Mini Sever - Public Share - how enable read and write permissions for new remote files

    Hi,
    this Sunday a friend ask me to help hum with a problem on is Man Mini Server. He has a small office and uses the mini server to share a public folder to all his employees.
    Everyone that creates a file, saves it to the public folder at the mini mac.
    That problem is that, who creates the file owns it and remains with read-only permissions to everyone else. The owner has to change the file permission in order to the rest of the employees can work on it.
    I do not know mac arquitecture, I only work with windows and linux, but i suspect the principles are the same.
    We try to create another folder , and share it, but it happens the same. Have you any ideas on what is wrong?
    I suspect it has anything to do with de file Sharing at the mini mac, but it has read and write permissions for everyone.
    Thanks for your help.

    signed applet. You aren't going to find any easy way to distribute that policy file to users, and that policy file, if you asked me to put it on my PC, I'd tell you to take a flying leap. That would open any applet to access.

  • Can I change Read and Write Permissions?

    I'm trying to get as much of my old Windows stuff onto my iMac.
    It's all stored on a Seagate 300GB External HD that is partitioned 150GB Mac and 150GB Windows NTFS. I can see and copy Folders and Files from the Windows Partition, but cannot delete once copied, this is very inconvenient as it means I have to keep unplugging the hard drive from the iMac and plugging it into my MacBook Pro (with Windoze installed) to remove the Files/Folders I have copied onto the iMac. Does anyone know how I can change the read write permissions on the Windows Partition so that I can copy then delete off it without constantly swapping computers. Thanks

    Unfortunately, this isn't a permission problem. The thing is, OS X can read NTFS partitions, but not write to them. The only filesystem that both OS X and Windows can both read and write (without third party drivers/apps anyway) is FAT32.

  • Script to set all files in a folder to "Read and Write" permissions? Please

    In advance my most abject apologies for posting such a simple question. I couldn't script my way out of a paper bag, and searching and googling have failed, no doubt because I don't even have the proper keywords. :-/
    The script I need is so simple that it most likely exists somewhere already. Whenever I copy image files from a DVD-ROM or CD-ROM burned on a Windows laptop to my desktop Mac, the files and folders therein are "Read Only" on my Mac. If there are many files in the folder, it's very easy to Select All and do a Get Info on multiple items, so I can rectify the situation by changing the whole set in a single step. But if I have ten files or less in a folder, each file opens an Info dialog box and that can become very tedious when I have scores of folders with nine or so files in each.
    Any guidance will be much appreciated.

    You can attach a folder action to your destination folder, for example:
    <pre style="
    font-family: Monaco, 'Courier New', Courier, monospace;
    font-size: 10px;
    margin: 0px;
    padding: 5px;
    border: 1px solid #000000;
    width: 720px;
    color: #000000;
    background-color: #FFDDFF;
    overflow: auto;"
    title="this text can be pasted into the Script Editor">
    on adding folder items to ThisFolder after receiving AddedItems
    repeat with AnItem in AddedItems
    tell application "Finder" to set owner privileges of AnItem to read write
    -- tell application "Finder" to set everyones privileges of AnItem to read write
    end repeat
    end adding folder items to
    </pre>
    ... but you can also use the Inspector (option-command-i) to get a single info window for multiple items.

  • How do I change permissions on my seagate expansion drive from read only to read and write?  Thank you!

    I don't seem to be able to change the permissions on my Seagate 1TB Expansion Drive from read only to read and write.
    Are there expansion drives compatible with both Windows and Mac as I have a Windows computer at work and use my Mac at home?
    Thanks

    It is a question of formats.  That drive probably is formatted for Windows.  You will have to reformat it to ExFAT on the PC, then it will work both on the Mac and the PC. 
    REFORMATTING ERASES ALL DATA ON A DISK!
    There is a software option which will allow you to write to the HDD with reformatting:

  • How do i get my external hard drive permissions changed from read only to read and write?

    Does anyone know how to get an external drive to unlock the permissions from read only to read and write? Without reformatting or buying an app?

    Hey P,
    If you single click on your external drive icon on the desktop and then goto
    'File > Get Info' a window will display the information for that drive. At the
    bottom of the window their should be a check box that either allows you
    to recognise users of not. You probably want to uncheck this box.
    Or... You can keep the user option and just change the permissions
    using the same Get Info window.

  • I'm trying to share folder between users on a single mac.  I put the folder in "shared," set permissions so other user can read and write, enabled file sharing, but can't find the folder on the second user's account.  Any help?

    I'm trying to share a folder between users on a single mac.  I want both users to be able to read and write so the folder stays current on both accounts.  I put the folder in "shared," set permissions on folder so other user can read and write, enabled file sharing, but can't find the folder on the second user's account.  Any help?

    Did you log out of one account and into the other or just used Fast user switching?
    Is the permissions set to anyone?
    When you move data to teh Shared folder is it copied or just moved?
    If copied then it's not a folder both can access, just a way station like a USB thumb drive that things are coped too and off of likely.
    You can run this #5 on each user account to reset the user permissions once they are taken back out of the Shared folder

  • 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...

    I am not sure why you get that error. One thing you can do is a SMC reset then try to format it again. However that being said I'm not fan of WD external HD's primarily because we see a lot of troubles with them on Macs. Their internal HD's are fine so that narrows it down to their enclosures. If the problem persists I'd return the drive and buy one of the following:
    OWC (www.macsales.com) Mercury Elite Pro series
    Lacie Quadra d2 series
    G-Tech G series

  • How do I repair permissions when I removed the read and write priveleges to everyone?

    I won't beat around the bush.
    I accidentally disabled read and write priveleges to everyone onto the entire startup drive. It didn't occur to me that would also include admin. I saw a red no-sign on the folder, and now starting up leaves me with the white screen and the gray apple indefinately.
    I'm not sure how to use terminal, but I have been using the time machine - it won't help me any if I can't start up my computer, though.
    Thanks for helping.

  • I cannot update from OS 10.9.4 to 10.9.5. I get a message saying: File couldn't be installed error (513). I have configured my OS so that I have read and write permission followed by system with read and writ permission. Can someone help me? Thanks.

    I cannot update from OS X 10.9.4 t0 10.9.5> Whenever I try I get the following message: File couldn't be installed error (513) and something about not having the proper permission.  Under the Macintosh HD sharing and permissions settings I have customized the settings so that (Me) has read and write permission followed by the system with read and write permission, wheel and everyone have Read permissions.
    I have no problems updating apps such as Adobe CC or iTunes but cannot update the operating system, can someone help me? Thanks.

    1. Restart the computer in safe mode. Certain caches maintained by the system will be rebuilt.
    Safe mode is much slower to start up than normal. The next normal startup may also be somewhat slow.
    When the login screen appears, restart as usual (not in safe mode) and test. There's no need to log in while in safe mode.
    Note: If FileVault is enabled, or if a firmware password is set, or if the startup volume is a software RAID, you can’t start in safe mode. In that case, go to Step 2.
    If there's no change after taking this step, continue.
    2. Back up all data before proceeding.
    Triple-click anywhere in the line below on this page to select it:
    /var/folders
    Right-click or control-click the highlighted line and select

    Hi,
    Office programs are specific. They will create a temp file when edit, then the temp file will be deleted when close. So Delete permission is needed for users to saving Office files like Excel/Word.
    For more detaile information, please refer to the thread below:
    Special Permissions - User cannot save files

  • How to burn read and write files on DVD

    I would like to know how to burn DVDs (image files) with the Read and Write setting. I have changed the settings in Get Info for the image files to Read and Write for Owner, Group and Others and yet when I burn the DVD and try and copy the files back onto the hard drive (to test if it works or not) it won't allow me. When I check the Get Info it says Read and Write for owner (greyed out) and Read Only for Group and Others (greyed out too).
    I have also tried to change the status of the blank DVD before adding files and after adding the files (but b4 the burn) to Read and Write, this works but then during the burn process the DVD or burner changes my settings to Read Only.
    I am burning with Finder and have tried with Toast 10 Titanium. What am I doing wrong, or not doing at all?! I'm going loopy with frustration!

    Kiraly, I agree that the actual problem here might be something else, but as a side issue there seems to be a difference in the way permissions are handled when a file copy is made using Finder compared to when the copy is made using the cp copy in Terminal. At least in my Tiger system, Finder preserved the permission structure, though not the ownership, when it copied a file, whereas cp used the OS defaults.
    I tried the following experiment:
    From my test user account "t", I created a textfile named ReadWrite.txt, and gave it Read+Write permissions for Owner, Group, and Others. I then burned it using Finder to a DVD which I named PermissionTest, and then unchecked the "Ignore Ownership" box on PermissionTest.
    The original ownership and permissions were preserved on the DVD, though of course you couldn't actually write to anything there:
    xxG5-Computer:~ t$ ls -l /Volumes/PermissionTest/ReadWrite.txt
    -rw-rw-rw- 1 t t 15 Sep 13 18:25 /Volumes/PermissionTest/ReadWrite.txt
    I then copied the file from the DVD to the Desktop using Finder, and the permissions were preserved!
    Finder copy:
    xxG5-Computer:~ t$ ls -l /Users/t/Desktop/ReadWrite.txt
    -rw-rw-rw- 1 t t 15 Sep 13 18:25 /Users/t/Desktop/ReadWrite.txt
    I then trashed the Finder copy of ReadWrite,txt on the desktop, and made a second copy from the DVD, but this time I used the cp command from Terminal instead of using Finder. This time the permissions were not preserved, but reverted to the OS default:
    cp copy:
    xxG5-Computer:~ t$ cp /Volumes/PermissionTest/ReadWrite.txt Desktop
    xxG5-Computer:~ t$ ls -l /Users/t/Desktop/ReadWrite.txt
    -rw-r--r-- 1 t t 15 Sep 13 19:43 /Users/t/Desktop/ReadWrite.txt
    I then switched to a different user account "t1", and repeated the above with the same DVD, first copying the ReadWrite.txt file to the desktop using Finder, and then using cp. The ownership of the copied file changed from t to t1 in both cases, but the permission structure again was preserved in the Finder copy but not in the cp copy:
    DVD file:
    xxG5-Computer:~ t1$ ls -l /Volumes/PermissionTest/ReadWrite.txt
    -rw-rw-rw- 1 t t 15 Sep 13 18:25 /Volumes/PermissionTest/ReadWrite.txt
    Finder copy:
    xxG5-Computer:~ t1$ ls -l /Users/t1/Desktop/ReadWrite.txt
    -rw-rw-rw- 1 t1 t1 15 Sep 13 18:25 /Users/t1/Desktop/ReadWrite.txt
    cp copy:
    xxG5-Computer:~ t1$ cp /Volumes/PermissionTest/ReadWrite.txt Desktop
    xxG5-Computer:~ t1$ ls -l /Users/t1/Desktop/ReadWrite.txt
    -rw-r--r-- 1 t1 t1 15 Sep 13 19:51 /Users/t1/Desktop/ReadWrite.txt
    I got similar results when I tried copying a file with Read+Write permissions for all from a USB flash drive to the Desktop, again with the "Ignore Ownership" box unchecked.

  • Permisions to read and write on a external hard drive

    Currently I am working with two Mac Air. One of them with Mac OS X 10.9.5 and the other one with Mac OS10.7.5.
    Also I have most of my files in an external hard drive.
    When I try to move file from the Mac air with Mac OS10.7.5 to the hard drive, I have no problem.
    When I try to move file from the Mac air with Mac OS X 10.9.5 to the same hard drive, I am unable to do this action
    because the hard drive appears as a read only (drwxr-xr-x)
    Does any one knows how to change the settings to allow to write in the hard drive ( being able to save files from my
    computer to the hard drive)
    Thank you for your help.
    by the way, the hard drive is not apple.

    Dear Kappy
    That's the problem. In the show information window doesn't appear any little lock anywhere as it appear in other windows
    such as safety and privacy or in parenteral control.
    Perhaps the lock to unlock this window is somewhere else in the preference settings.
    I can try to see if with the Mac air with Mac OS10.7.5 I can change these settings,
    but so far, I haven't being able to find a way to change permissions to read and write
    through the information window.
    Thank you for your collaboration
