Permission Problems

Hi.

I'm having a permission problem on my sequencer (Logic Pro). I deleted the administrator group and now I only have standard access to my computer. I created a root user so that I can do installs, but it's annoying having to use always the root account.

Does anyone know a way to fix it, please? It's urgent!

I appreciate it.

What is your method of backup?

Never never never never ever use the root account for routine tasks that can be done with a regular or admin account. All normal system safety and security measures are thrown completely out the door when logged into root. Only someone who knows… and I mean KNOWS… what they are doing should be in root.

First things first… what do you mean by deleting your admistrator group? Do you really mean you deleted an admin user account, or did you do something in root so that you can't even have an admin account now? If it's the latter, just plan on reinstalling OS X.
