Install Permission

Install Permission

2018-02-28 by lehuhn@...

I just installed the updated version of QTR on my Mac (OSX 10.13.3) and now I cant run the install scripts (no access due to lack of appropriate privileges). I opened the "Get Info" window and added myself to the permissions that doesn't fix the problem. Any other ideas out there?


Also, (and I am embarrassed to have to ask this) but is there a an actual application that can be opened in QTR? I have only used QTR through Quad Tone Quick Curves, Quad Tone Profile and Print Tool. I have tried all the files in the QTR folder but nothing opens like an actual app that I am used to. Sorry if this is a stupid question, but I have read the QTR User guide several times for this information and not found it.

Re-install quadtonerip. It will fix the permissions.

Best,

Roy Harrington replied to my support email and prompted me to download and install QTRIP 2.7.8 I did and it worked. I am not sure what I did wrong initially, but I am back in business.

David, where are you trying to run the install script, Library/Printers or Applications/Profiles? I am still trying to stumble my way through QTR. I am able to run the install in Applications/Profiles but not Library/Printers.

The main install -- Install-QTR-2.7.8.pkg goes through the whole password sequence
so it can fix all the permissions.
The printer install -- Install3880.command for instance is just a script without extra
permission capability -- so may give an error.

Sometimes in creating new files or folders the system gives less permission than asked
for so subsequently you get the permission error.
Yes, it's weird but just re-running the main install will get you working again.
