Guides, Mac Add comments

This happened when my AD account was deleted and then re-established using the same username.

 

  1. Login to the affected profile
  2. Run Terminal
    1. run “id -u” to get the new user id
    2. run “id -g” to get the new group id
    3. run “sudo chown -R <the userid found in sub-step 1 above>:<the groupid found in sub-step 1 above> /Users/<username>
    4. run “sudo chown -R <the userid found in sub-step 1 above>:<the groupid found in sub-step 1 above> ~/Library
  3. Reboot
