[QUOTE="Flavian, post: 544523, member: 37336"] Okay *lol* it's me again. Sorry for posting all the time, but the permission issue frustrates me! My situation: I changed the write permissions and the group permission to "admin" Now I can do everything with my files, BUT when I want to delete a folder OSX always [B]prompts me for a password[/B], which is certainly not the case with files. Here are the permissions for my folders in the home directory: drwxrwxr-x+ 7 Florian admin 238 7 Dez 08:41 Betriebssysteme drwxrwxr-x+ 5 Florian admin 170 9 Dez 12:09 Desktop drwxrwxr-x+ 15 Florian admin 510 9 Dez 04:24 Documents drwxrwxr-x+ 19 Florian admin 646 9 Dez 13:48 Downloads drwxrwxr-x 6 Florian admin 204 8 Dez 22:11 Installers drwxrwxr-x+ 38 Florian admin 1292 9 Dez 14:07 Library drwxrwxr-x+ 11 Florian admin 374 9 Dez 02:42 Movies drwxrwxr-x+ 32 Florian admin 1088 9 Dez 02:09 Music drwxrwxr-x+ 27 Florian admin 918 9 Dez 02:45 Pictures drwxrwxr-x+ 54 Florian admin 1836 8 Dez 22:32 Predigten drwxrwxr-x+ 6 Florian admin 204 6 Dez 00:25 Public drwxrwxr-x+ 5 Florian admin 170 5 Dez 17:45 Sites Here are some permissions for files: -rwxrwxr-x@ 1 Florian admin 287 6 Dez 20:27 Feisar.rtf -rwxrwxr-x+ 1 Florian admin 157743 1 Nov 20:28 Gesäuertes Brot - Pfingsten.pdf I don't know what the @ means though... Another thing is that [B]every folder I download, I can not rename as well[/B]. It says that I don't have the permissions for it :( My question is: What can I do so that I will be able to use my files without always having to type my password in. I don't really know what to do anymore. Please help me :( [/QUOTE]
