Some of my folders are locked. Fonts for instance wont allow me to add any fonts to it, and this really sucks because I am into graphics and I need the ability to download new fonts.

I don't know how safe this would be, but you could try changing the permissions of the folder (apple-I) so that you own the folder, then you can unlock it and change them back to what they were when you're done.

 

[rman]

You might try, running disk utikity and check your permissions

Yeah I second rman.. you should have access to your fonts.

How do I run disc Utillity, or change the permissions. And to be a little more clear I tried again and it says "The library can not be changed" not the font folder...

 

[Murlyn]

Are you trying to open the font's file? What exactly are you trying to do?

 

[Fomer]

I downloaded a couple fonts from www.dafont.com and unzipped them unfoldered them and tried to drag the icons into the font folder and it says "Library cannot be editer or changed" I was also trying to load some file awhile back and it required me putting a file into startup folder but it wouldnt let me said samething cannot Edit or change library folder.

 

[Murlyn]

Ok which fonts folder are you trying to drag them to? The

/Library/Fonts/

or

/Users/username/Library/Fonts

folder?

Drag them into the second one.. if that is still not working please post and Ill tell you what to do in that case

Cheers!
