Setting up names for "Sharing and Permissions"
I have a data folder that I copy periodically to my wife's iMac for an application that has a backup user.
Right now, if I do "Get Info" on that folder on my iMac, then select "Sharing and Permissions", I see:
my wife Read & Write
*fetching... Read & Write
*fetching... Read & Write
me Read & Write
staff Read only
everyone Read and write
The asterisks before "Fetching" are spinning.
Other folders just have me, staff, & everyone. I added my wife trying to resolve permission issues in running that application on her computer.
If I click on +, there are some groups I can select:
Administrators
boinc_master
boinc_project
con.malwarebytes.mbam.nobody
my grandson by one name
my grandson by another name.
So I have some questions:
- How do I resolve the spinning asterisks (Wall-Mart symbols)?
- How do I get rid of my grandson's names?
- I do have Malwarebytes, but don't know what boinc is.
(This forum still thinks my 2013 iMac is my device instead of my M1 iMac, and I'm using High Sierra.)
