    Hi Tyown,

    You've posted in the Lounge, a non-technical forum intended for creative discussions. I'll have this post moved to the Photoshop Elements forum.

    You can set file file permissions with this process:

    OS X Yosemite: Set permissions for items on your Mac

    If you're using OS X Yosemite or earlier, you can repair permissions with this process:

    Repair disk permissions with Disk Utility - Apple Support
