Hi,

 

I have came to a problem with the new 3x M1 Mac Minis with newest Big Sur.

 

Problem is that mostly newly imported files cannot be opened, says it's locked. 

 

OS X Finder shows that files have full access.

 

Once i restart Bridge, then the files are avaible to work on.

 

Same is with Photoshop.

 

Any ideas?

Did all those multiple times, even created new admin user and launched app from there. 

 

But solution was to remove apps with "-" button from Full Disk Access. Then reboot the Mac, then start application and OS asked again to give permission for folders etc.

Go to your System Preferences and select Security and Privacy (found in the top section). Now click on the Privacy setting (last tab). Now click on the lock on the bottom left and provide your Administrator code. Now select the Full Disk Access option and click on the "+" symbol. This will bring up the standard Mac Open window and let you add any application you want or need to have full access. Look for Bridge, select it, it will now appear in that window and make sure it's checked. Next go to the Files and Folders option and do the same thing as above (although there's nothing to check, just add. Close everything down and see if that makes it all work.

Please let me know

[Note: these images are from an older OS, the process is the same.]
