I have a folder full of subfolders and files. Some items were created from scratch, some were emailed to me, and some were copied from CDs. Throughout this huge directory of files, some items are flagged as Read Only. There seems to be no rhyme or reason to what's Read Only and what's not.
I very simply want to give myself Read and Write permission for EVERY freakin' thing in my entire Documents folder. Sounds simple but it's driving me crazy. I've selected the Documents folder, and choose Read and Write from the Ownership pop-up in the Get Info dialog and still items in sub-folders are flagged as Read Only. I've done the same thing selecting some of the sub-folders directly and STILL some of the items in the that folder and in sub-folders are flagged Read Only.
I've repaired permissions THREE times after doing all of this and I'm STILL encountering Read Only files.
And one other thing: 10.3 is randomly lauching ColorSync Profiler or some other app when I double-click on a jpeg, even though numerous times I've selected a jpeg, opened the Get Info dialog, selected PhotoShop as the application of choice for all such items.
This is driving me insane.
