How can I change permissions on multiple files?
I have recently loaded tons of photos to my new Mac, OS X v 10.7.3
All the photos are in diferent directories. When I tried to delete individual photo from within my graphic program (Graphic Converter), I've got a message that "I do not have Permissions to do so... When I check the individual file, there are four permissions - 1/ everyone set as "Custom, 2/ JLap(Me) set as "Read & Write, 3/ Staff set as "No Access" and 4/ everyone - set as "Read & Write".
I do not understand why I have "everyone" name there twice...? Once as "Custom" second as "Read & Write" permission. the main problem is with the "Staff" name set as "No Access" which does not allow me to delete each file. When I chenge the "Staff" permission to "Read & Write" then I can delete this file. When I go into the whole directory where this file is located, the permissions show only 1/ JLap(Me) set as "Read & Write" and 2/ everyone set also as "Read & Write". If I want to delete single photo from any directory, I have to go into the photos "Get Info" and manualy change the "staff" permission... As I have thousands of photos, there is no way I can change each individual file.
Can anyone help with how to change ALL FILES from staff - No Access to staff - Read & Write??? What is the staff anyway? Thanks in advance!
