How to change entire system permission to my account?
This is driving me crazy - more than usual.
Got a new (to me...actually used) Mac Pro. Signed in as a dummy account on the Lion drive that came with it. Transferred my old drives to the new computer, then used Migration Assistant to re-create my account on the Lion drive.
And now everywhere I turn I don't have permission to do this or that. I've been overcoming it with Batchmod to a large degree, but now when I put a blank DVD in one of my two drives (I installed a new one) it spits it out and tells me I don't have permission. WHAT?
It also drives me crazy to have everything designated as belonging to the dummy account I created! BOO HISS. NO... the whole **** computer and everything on it is 100% MINE and I want MY ACCOUNT to have ALL the persmissions.
Any simple way to do this? What if I just delete the dummy, will it revert to me?
And where is the permission that is not letting me insert a blank disk???
Mac Pro, Mac OS X (10.6.8)
