Whenever you install something new on a Mac or perform a Software Update, it is always good to repair your disk permissions. This will make sure you computer runs optimally.

Here is how to Repair Disk Permissions:

  1. Double-click on Macintosh HD (upper right of your screen)
  2. Click on Applications on left side of window
  3. Double-click on the “Utilities” folder to open it
  4. Double-click on “Disk Utility”
  5. Click on your hard drive (not the one that says how large the hard drive is, the one below it that is a little indented that most likely says “Macintosh HD”)
  6. Click the “Repair Disk Permissions” button in the bottom center portion of the window
  7. Let it do its thing until it tells you it is finished (“Permissions repair complete”)
  8. When it’s done, close everything and you’re good to go
