Hi guys,
I'm a Mac noob and I recently did a fresh install and migration off of a clone disk that I made on a dying drive. I tried to use the same name on the new machine as the old and once I used the Migration assistant (after creating the account and installing the new os 10.6) Both user accounts were insanely slow.
My guess was (from reading forums) that permissions issues were created so I ran "Permission Verify" on the whole disk from the Install Disk and there are tons of "open error 5: "Input/output error"s coming up.
Questions:
1) Should I repair permissions from the install disk or the user account
2) Which User account should I use to repair permissions? They are both set up as Admin.
Thanks in advance!!!!!!
