i am trying to install a program that requires that I navigate to my /var folder. So i tried going to find and doing a go->go to-> var
that didn't work it said that folder didn't exist.
Then I tried going into terminal and doing
cd ..
cd ..
until there was nowhere else to go
then i did a cd var
it was there.
then i tried to create a folder and it said i have don't have permissions.
then i found out that all the stuff in the var folder was in the
cd ..
cd ..
cd /private/var
For some reason I can't access the regular var folder like i am an admin. I checked in accounts and I am definitely listed as an admin. let me know if there is anyting i can do about this. Thanks.
