Since I upgraded to Mavericks X, I don't have "permission" to open my photo files in Time Machine.  Other documents seem to work fine, and I am the only "administrator".  

Is the iPhoto library in your home folder, or have you moved it somewhere else?

  • I recently upgraded to Mavericks and now don't have access to iphoto.  I cannot find my iphoto library to back the photos up before upgrading the iphoto but see the photos when I try to change screensaver?  Where are my photos so I can back them up?

    The iPhoto library should be in your user folder/Pictures unless it was moved.

  • How do I view pc files migrated to iMac? The folders tell me I don't have permission to open them.

    I used the Migration Assistant tool to copy files from my WindowsXP pc to my new iMac.   This took about 3 hours to complete.
    I finally was able to locate the folders on the iMac, but they all have a red minus sign in the bottom right corner, and when I try to open them, I get a message saying I don't have permission to open the files - even though they are my own files.  Any ideas on how to access my migrated files on my Lion iMac?

    Select a folder, CMD+I, unlock the lock, and change the permissions. Assuming that you're a switcher from the PC world,  see these:

  • I can't access most internet pages because I don't have adobe flash player for my powerbook and the download doesn't seem to work?

    I can't access most internet pages because I don't have adobe flash player for my powerbook and the download doesn't seem to work?

    The message requesting that you download Adobe Flash Player takes you to FP requireing an Intel processor. Doesn't work on a PowerPC processor. I fould a hack, installed it & it works with Firefox, TenFourFox & Safari.
    Download this http://www.steelbin.com/FPforFBPPC.zip to your desktop, unzip it, and replace the current Flash Player plug-in which is in your main/Library/Internet Plug-Ins folder, (not the user Library). Save the old one just in case this one doesn't work.

  • HT203163 cannot open itunes due to iTunes Library.itl is locked.  Don't have permission to open

    First time using this help site...can anyone help me....I am assuming this is an easy fix....this is a new computer and am just trying to open my I Tunes and make sure my songs have been transferred from my old computer accurately.  Keep getting error message when I try to open I Tunes saying Library is locked and I don't have permission to open.  Thank you ahead of time for any advice you can provide....Terry 
    Additional info you might need...??? Purchased program to download my I Tunes from my I Pod through CopyTrans...was able to open I Tunes before I did that...now can't...

    Try holding alt or option key when starting iPhoto to choose a new Library.

  • You don't have permission to open this file.

    I'm trying to add an Entity Data Model to a Project in Visual Studio 2013.
    When I browse to the file to connect to it says
    "You don't have permission to open this file. Contact the owner or administrator for permission."
    When I go back to SQL Management Studio and check the Server Roles assigned to my user name, I'm listed as a sysadmin.
    I clicked ALL the other server roles for good measure, but this does not help.
    When I installed SQL Server 2012 I created another user on my computer to serve as the SQL Server Services Account for SQL Server Agent and SQL Server Database Engine.
    I notice that this user shows up as the database owner for the database I'm trying to connect to, even though I was logged on using my user name when I created the database.
    Thanks in advance.

    I don't know much about Entity Data Model, but if you get an error about lack of permission for opening a file (what file?), SQL Server is probably not the right place to look for file permissions. SQL Server is about managing data in databases, not
    files in the file system. For file-permission errors, you need to look in Windows. Or try starting Visual Studio with "Run as Administrator".

  • Every time I try to print from word.mac it tells me that it can't save the file because I don't have permission then it closes the file. what do I do?

    Everytime I try to print a doc from word.mac it tells me that it can't save the file because I don't have permission then closes the file. What do I do to change this?

    If you have problems with updating or with the permissions then easiest is to download the full version and trash the currently installed version to do a clean install of the new version.
    Download a new copy of the Firefox program and save the DMG file to the desktop
    * Firefox 5.0.x: http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all.html
    * Trash the current Firefox application to do a clean (re-)install
    * Install the new version that you have downloaded

    If you get an error message that you do not have sufficient permissions or if you have problems with updating then easiest is to download the full version and trash the currently installed version to do a clean install of the new version.

  • I don't have permission to open my own folders

    My hard drive failed and I just got it replaced. Now I can't open my Desktop, Documents, Libraries, Movies and Pictures folders because I "don't have permission to see [their] contents". After using Migration Assistant to pull in my backed-up data I was asked to change my user name and I suspect this is at the root of the problem.

    I did a permission repair booted from the Snow Leopard disk and that appears to have solved the problem – for which many thanks, Barney. However almost half of the items in my Dock have now been replaced by question marks and two have different icons which, upon clicking, become renamed as unknown files (for instance my iChat icon has turned into a Tiff document item. Holding the cursor over it displayed "iChat" but after clicking it linked to a .tif file which lies within Applications > iChat.app > Contents > Resources. With one exception, the remaining apps in the Dock are those which came with the OS. Presumably the answer is to copy the missing apps from Time Machine but how exactly do I go about that?

  • I don't have permission to use my iTunes files????

    I'm trying to run a Keynote presentation that I created in the previous version of Keynote, and keep getting the message: The media file "..." is copy protected. You don't have permission to use it in Keynote. Why don't I have permission to use my own iTunes music in Keynote?

    Well.....
    Apple iTunes checks where you purchased that file and if it is copy protected.  If it is, then Keynote 6 blocks the play.  You have a couple of options:
    1.  Occasionally, if you convert a Keynote 5 presentation with purchased audio clips embedded, Keynote 6 will ignore the copy protect--I  don't know why.  Other times it just strips them out.
    2.  You can convert the purchased audio files by burning them to a CD and then transferring them back to iTunes, which is a nuisance but it works.  There are also some utilities out there that will do the conversion to an AAC or MPEG file format, and then you add these to the slide.

  • Getting "don't have permission to read" message transferring file

    hi,
    I'am getting the following window and dialogue when trying to copy a file located on my macbook to a pc running xp on my home network.
    Thoughts?
    "One or more items can’t be copied to “My Documents” because you don’t have permission to read them. Do you want to copy the items you are allowed to read?"
    Thx

    Running disk utility did not fix my problem.
    When I try to copy a file from Mac to XP, I get the dialog that finder wants to change something, and then the alarm that can't copy because I don't have permission to read them. Ugh.
