Please do not post the same thing multiple times. The board software automatically flags certain posts as needing moderator attention. This happens the most often for new users. I'm pretty sure this is made clear at the time you attempt to post. Posting the same thing over and over again just makes that many more posts the moderators have to weed through later. This makes us sad. Don't make us sad. If your post/thread doesn't appear, just wait a while. Don't post it again. If it hasn't shown up by the next day, then you can try again. I normally go through posts in the mornings, and try to check a few times throughout the day, but I'm not here 24/7. There will typically be a significant delay before posts are approved. Just be patient.
Problem with Writing to Personal Folder at runtime---
I have just started using MAC and as such facing some difficulty finding my way around. Have been using Windows all my life. I am going to describe one of the problems I am facing.
There's a Personal folder in my home directory. Now when I select Get Info and navigate to the Sharing and Permissions sections, II see a little padlock [locked] at the far bottom right corner. I click on it, give the username and password, give the read/write permissions for the current user and select 'Apply to Enclosed Items' from the wheel icon and close the window. After that when I again open the Get Info dialog the padlock is locked as it was before I unlocked it with my credentials. Why is this happening? What am I missing here? What does this mean?
I am using the administrator account. But from the Account tab on the System Preferences I found out there are two Admin accounts configured for this machine. Is it happening because of this? I am trying to create a directory inside Personal and write a file to it programmatically at run time[I am trying to develop an iPhone App] but I am being denied the permission to do so. This is the code block I am using:-->
string pathtowrite=Environment.GetFolderPath(Environment.SpecialFolder.Personal); var dirName=Path.Combine(pathtowrite, \"ASTON Repository\"); if(!Directory.Exists(dirName)) { Directory.CreateDirectory(dirName); } var filepath=Path.Combine(dirName, \"BLL_User.xml\"); TextWriter txtW=new StreamWriter(filepath); xx.Serialize(txtW, user); txtW.Close();
Please help me out friends as I am stuck with this issue. Can't find a way out although there aren't any errors in the code apparently.
