[QUOTE="erikweikert, post: 1388479, member: 245469"] So earlier today I was having problems with photoshop, tt was giving me a permissions error. I spent several hours looking up the problem online without any luck. In my frustration I noticed that my user account (which is also the admin account) was listed as "Read Only" in the permissions on the Macintosh HD so I changed it to "Read and Write" and without thinking also clicked the "Apply to Enclosed". I realized that this was probably a HUGE mistake after it took forever to apply the changes. Can anybody help me out with letting me know what kind of problems have a I caused? Will the repair permissions help at all? Should I reinstall Lion? Photoshop is working now, but I am guessing that I have a bigger problem on my hands? Thanks! [/QUOTE]
