AW: OT: How to make an app accessible for all users on Mac?
I still can't get my app to run for everyone. I put my folder with my apps into the general application folder. By default my folder had only read permission for everyone, so I changed the permissions to read and write and inherited it to all apps in my folder. Now, when I log on with a standard user and double click one of my apps it seems for a moment, as if the app window wants to open (a short zoom of the app icon happens), but then nothing happens anymore, no window opens, no error message, just nothing. Also the window menu doesn't shows any open program. What am I missing? Any help appreciated Tiemo -Ursprüngliche Nachricht- Von: use-revolution-boun...@lists.runrev.com [mailto:use-revolution- boun...@lists.runrev.com] Im Auftrag von Sarah Reichelt Gesendet: Mittwoch, 8.

When copying my app folder (including several apps) out of a DMG from CD into the program folder on HD as an Admin, only the Admin can see and start my app. Every other user doesn't see my app folder. What do I have to do, that my app is accessibly for every user? Can the Admin set any permissions on my folder, so that it is accessible for everyone? If yes, where and which rights? On a Mac, there is a general Applications folder at the root level of the hard drive. Each user can also have their own Applications folder. A user's Applications folder is not accessible to other users, so it sounds as if the installation has been done into the user's folder, not the general Apps folder.
