Can Not View Sharing and Permission Pane in Get Info Window

At work using Sierra - -some Users can spin down the arrow at the bottom of the Get Info window to see Users under Sharing and Permissions and some can not. Why is that? In the attached screenshot is what we want to see - -all of the Users. On 2 machines we are not able to toggle down to this view.

Try setting up another admin user account to see if the same problem continues. Also try the Safe Mode.

If it works in the Safe Mode, try running this program when booted normally and then copy and paste the output in a reply. The program was created by Etresoft, a frequent contributor.

I would uninstall Cocktail. It tends to interfere with the computer's operation while providing minimal to no benefit.

Eric - -

I can't follow the directions for resetting permissions bc there is no lock present under the current circumstances. Take a look at the screenshot of the window I posted.

If the issue started after changing the permissions of items in your home folder, reset permissions:

  1. From the Finder menu bar, choose Go > Home. Your home folder opens.
  2. Choose File > Get Info. An Info window for your home folder opens.
  3. If the Sharing & Permissions section at the bottom of the window isn't open, click the triangle User uploaded file in that section to open it.
  4. If the Lock button at the bottom of the window shows a closed lock User uploaded file , click the lock and enter an administrator name and password.
  5. Click the Action menu User uploaded file in the bottom corner of the window, then choose “Apply to enclosed items.” Click OK to confirm the action. A progress bar appears at the top of the window.

Hi Eric -- I ran the command... diskutil resetUserPermissions / `id -u`

and it did say it was successful in fixing permissions, but did nothing to change the state of the window that I screenshot and attached last week where it says... 'You have Custom Access". Again, I just want to reiterate, the screenshot is not of a Users hard drive, but of the volume we are Sharing. Two of us can see All Users Groups in that Get Info window from our own iMacs and 2 of us can not. Any other ideas?

Feb 8, 2018 7:53 AM in response to Eric Root

Hi Eric - - Below are the results from the Etrecheck report. I booted up in Safe Mode and it still had the same issue. Just to be clear - - we are all Sharing files off of another Mac. Some of us can see all of the Users and Groups in the Get Info pane as the screenshot shows and 2 Users can not. Thank you...
