[QUOTE="TheKo, post: 1302047, member: 65374"] Thanks for helping me out :) I have managed to create and log in as a root user. The only thing is, that I can't figure out how to view the files of the other users (they don't show up in the Finder). I've tried googling it without luck. It does sound like the perfect solution, though. Would you know how to access the files of other users using a root user? The thing is, that I can open all the files that are in the stacked folders of my dock (downloads, documents, applications, movies) without any problems. And I can still view and edit my photos in Lightroom. For that reason I am still pretty positive; I don't think my photos have been corrupted. Unfortunately I do not have a complete backup of my photos, so it better be the case... Stupid, yup. [/QUOTE]
