PRODUCT: 4D | VERSION: 13.0 | PLATFORM: Mac OS X
Published On: April 13, 2012

If 4D has been installed with the Administrator account it may be necessary to modify the file permissions to allow 4D to run under other user accounts. To do so take the following steps:

  1. Open up Terminal
  2. Navigate to the directory where the 4D application has been installed.
  3. Run the command 'sudo chmod -R 777 4D.app/'
  4. Enter the administrator password

This will ensure that all the files tat 4D needs will have read and write access.
