How to Stop "Live Wants to Changes" every Time I Open Live

Post by Jacqueslacouth » Wed Apr 18, 2012 9:09 pm

Since updating to Live 8 with OS X Lion, every time I open Live I get this rather irritating request to type in my user password because Live wants to make changes. I cannot find any settings to stop this. It is like a freaking nag screen from a demo version...is there any way to convince OS X that it is ok to open Live without nagging me for my password??

How do I repair permissions?

The Repair Disk Permissions function is part of Apple’s Disk Utility (in /Applications/Utilities). After launching Disk Utility, select the desired disk—generally your startup disk—in the list to the left, then click the First Aid tab. At the bottom of the First Aid panel, click the Repair Disk Permissions button. (You could instead use the Verify Disk Permissions option to preview any potential repairs before performing them, but for most users there’s little benefit from this extra step.)
