So recently, I've been creating new projects in Xcode and it's been telling me I don't have permission to write the files I just created. I tried a permissions repair (several times) then a re-install of xcode. The permissions repair seems to be doing the same thing every time... Has anyone else had this problem?

Where are you trying to save them? Are you an admin user? What are the permissions on the folder you are trying to save to (found by right-click and Get Info)?

You should be saving the projects to your home folder where you have all the necessary permissions to save files..

I've been saving the projects on my Desktop and I'm just a normal user.

Desktop is fine..you should have access to that without any issues..I created a directory called "Projects" in my home directory and use that without any problems..
