Hey

Im new to macs so I'm not sure what to do with these files in Macintosh HD (SV_Config.db and SV_Events.db)
When I try to delete them it always asks for a password, so I think they may be system files??

Is there anyway to move them to another place??

Thanks

Can you click on each one and press command (apple key) and I to get info and see what the ownership is of them?

Click to expand...
Both are:
"Read Only"
Owned By "System"
Group - "Admin"

Thought so. I can't find those files on here (PowerBook) so it might be OS X intel-specific. Sorry!

Oh right ok, thanks for your help anyway 🙂
 
Hmm, I've never seen those files before (on x86 or PPC) and Google doesn't know anything about them 😱 😕
 
I deleted the files, everything seems to be fine. I think the files were from some software I installed.
Thanks for all your help 🙂
