• Impossible to delete the photos and change permissions

  Separated from this thread.

  I have the same problem by removing photos.  It seems that the two are. TMP files.  I can't change permissions on them.

  On some problems that I did some research, I actually found contriditory advice or the Panel that told me to use did not exist in whole or in part.

  I know that these releases are enormous tasks, but MS needs start fixing these problems instead of telling people that they are just bad.  My new computer should be lightning fast and excite me no end, but I really hate to use it.  My MS Surface is not a year old and already beginning to give up.

  In the end, most people consider PCs devices to use to solve the tasks and amusements in their lives.  If you want to learn how to use a range or a lift after a few years?  No, you want to take care of business.  I'm retired, but I can't image a set of Office training how to use 8.

  Furthermore, MS has moved a large part of my Surface set up, files, and search the Web to the new PC.  How is made?

• How to change permissions for a Web site location?

  I accidentally typed deny when I was trying to share my location with a website, and I can't find a way to change this setting. Instructions to http://www.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/geolocation/ seemed to be that they would help, but there is no "Page Info" option in the Tools menu.

  Using the latest beta version of Firefox for Android.

  Jscher2000. thanks for the suggestion. I wanted to avoid erases all data for all sites, but I found a way to clean up the data for a specific site:

  While on the site in question, long press on the URL bar. This will bring up a menu that allows you to clear the data of this site and the specific permissions that have been created for her.

  Once I deleted permission for location data, he again asked me to share my position, and everything was good.

  The URL long-tap bar option should really be documented somewhere...

  Hello

  After several months of unsuccessful attempts to clean up the files of 'wrong' on my external share disk, files and folders prior, that I could not change or remove. I finally had success.
  My stepson who is a computer expert came to visit and this solution to condition:
  He defined a user administrator in Windows exactly equal to the owner of the files on the external drive that I couldn't.
  He did this owner - admin - part of the WORKING group using the Western Digital user interface.
  With this ID, it copied the files with the wrong files in a temporary folder, deleted the wrong file and renamed the temp folder to the original folder name. That corrects bad owners and provided write access where I had only read previously accesss.
  He had no idea about how the property has been corrupted by ROBOCOPY, but I am very happy with its solution.
  I have this post in the hopes that it may help others.

• How to change permissions for a complete local drive using the command?

  How can I change the authorization for a disk full local and all subfolders and files with the command. If my user name is "XYZ" and that the disk is 'local disk (I) '.  Thank you

  You can do this by using the ICACLS command.  There is a great page that explains it here:

  However - don't do this on your system (Windows) drive.  Break you considerably and have to reinstall your operating system.

• Why even after having changed the permissions can't write to my files?

  I moved files on "users / shared" on the imac 27 "my father Yosemite retina.  He got last June but was not able to migrate because of her old imac was in Florida and North Carolina.  So, I migrated the old imac again with time machine backup charges a few months after getting the computer.  Now, I'm trying to merge the 'old' on the new computer account with the migrated account 'new', I restored it with time machine from the old imac.  I thought I was smart "passage" large libraries of film and photo of users / shared and that the account migrated from old imac. (on the same computer again) But I have no write permissions for files on the migrated account.  And making matters worse, while I can't write to files, I'm still able to corrupt them trying to change permissions and try to load them with i-movie and what not.  So now, I have a 6 GB corrupted movie library and not backup.  I tried it duplication and corrupt also.

  So my question would be "why is it when I add to the new migration full privileges to user for these files, I always failed to write about them?  Now instead, I wonder if there is a way I can fix the corrupted film library file.  Film - I tried and failed on the double.    I tried available i-movie file to 'all' as well as the addition of the new migrated user full privileges to it.  While I was able to do it without error (it seems to take the changes) or the new migrated user or former user on the new computer can write to the file (i-film library) at this stage.

  Every article help I read says just to click on info and change the privileges for what I did.  So I'm pulling my hair out.

  Hope that I was not too confusing in the way that I want to talk about the two different accounts.

  Reset user - file property See post by Linc Davis

  You may need to restore the permissions on your user account. To do this, start on your recovery partition (hold down the command and R during startup) and open Terminal from the Utilities menu. In the Terminal, type: 'resetpassword' (without the), press return, and then select the admin user. You do not have to reset your password. Click the icon of your Mac hard drive at the top. In the list box below, select the user account that has problems. At the bottom of the window, you will see a box labeled restore Home Directory permissions and ACLs. Click the button to reset there. The process takes a few minutes. When you're finished, restart.

• Change multiple file permissions?

  I updated from XP PC to a laptop running Windows 7. I'm trying to transfer files from my XP on my laptop. The files have access denied because of incorrect file permissions. I know how to change the permissions individually but as I have a few files of hundreds of change that is going to be a long tedious operation unless I change permissions in multiple files. IS THIS POSSIBLE?

  Yes, it will change the permissions of all files, more subfolders and
  /their/ content, when it is done properly. You choose Advanced >
  Change the permissions to the "replace all child object permissions.

• Cannot change file/folder permissions

  I have a two drive system. C:\ for programs, E:\ for data. After a failed win7 - win10 update, I was not is no longer able to use my OS on my C:\ drive. My drive E:\ already had an OS installed win7 so I went to use my E:\ drive as my OS drive (a parameter of the motherboard is the E:\ drive a C:\ drive).

  Now I have folders and files with an owner: unknown, unknown + user group group. There are several questions I've seen change permissions: explore-> properties-> Security-> username, and change or advanced.

  • Change the root folder is possible but does not propagate properly. Some files give the message diagnostic «permissions on are incorrectly categorized which can cause some ineffective entries» When this happens the popup Edit does not have a new username and the advanced pupup shows certain permissions with "Traverse folder / e...» ».
  • In the security popup open edition opens another pop-up window without a diagnosis, but the Add button is gray and inaccessible.
  • Change the owner on some records give a diagnosis of ' you are not allowed to read the contents of the Directory..» eml you want to change the permissions of the directory by permissions granting you complete control '. .

  There may be several issues. My problem is that I have more than 20,000 files. If I can't spread worldwide owner/permissions, then I have a problem.
