	Mac OS X : Instructions to Correct Permissions for Cobalt, Xenon or Argon v8

Solution Instructions to Correct Permissions for Cobalt, Xenon or Argon v8 for Mac OS X Users:

Please make sure that the system permissions are set correctly. This involves running "Repair Permissions" from within "Disk Utility." "Disk Utility" can be found in the "Utilities" folder in the "Applications" folder on the MAC Hard Drive. When repairing permissions with "Disk Utility", the process will many times tell you that there is 1 minute remaining. This "1 minute" notice can sometimes be displayed for up to 2 hours. Do not interrupt the process, it will complete within 2 hours for standard sized hard drives.

Also, check permissions for the Ashlar-Vellum folder, sub-folders, and files in one or both of the following places.

- "Mac HD/Users/ (YOUR USER NAME HERE) /Library/Application Support/"

or

- "Mac HD/Library/Application Support/"

Please right click on the Ashlar-Vellum folder in these 2 locations, choose "Get Info" and at the bottom of dialog window, under "Ownership and Permissions" sections, please set all the permissions to "Read and Write". Please make sure that you click button "Apply to enclosed items" at the bottom of dialog window and click OK when prompted to apply permissions. Restart your computer and then open Cobalt/Xenon or Argon v8. It will bring you to the registration window. You can copy and paste in the serial number and registration codes.
