I loaned my G4 goose-neck iMac, running 10.4.x, to a teenager and just got it back. I have deleted his account and I am the sole person and Administrator. Every time I try to move a folder, empty the trash (or sometimes open an App), I get a message saying that I don't have privileges and must enter my password.
When I click on the icon for the hard drive to Get Info, this is what it shows for Ownership and Permissions: You can: Read and Write (grayed out) Details: Owner: system ( can use drop down menu when unlocked, otherwise grayed out) Access: Read and Write (grayed out) Group: admin (drop down menu available when unlocked, otherwise, grayed out) Access: Read and Write (grayed out) Others; Read only (grayed out) I have run Disk Permissions and Verified the Disk. No problems. Can someone tell me what is wrong and how to fix this? It is quite annoying!
