Hi Tiemo, I don't have my Mac in front of me right now but as far as I remember it does offer a reset permissions function.
Just found this, which should work: http://macs.about.com/od/Troubleshooting/qt/Mac-Troubleshooting-Reset-User-Account-Permissions.htm or, as I do, you can give ONYX a chance, it does offer similar and more functions: http://www.onyxmac.com/ Backup first, as usual ;-) Regards, Pascal 2014-02-19 15:02 GMT+01:00 Tiemo Hollmann TB <toolb...@kestner.de>: > Hi, > > I've just messed up my Mac.
