Patron Saint of Chimichangas Posted July 21, 2006 Posted July 21, 2006 I've set up my DB on my laptop, and now that it's ready to go I have copied it on a CDR and moved it to a new machine. I have setup the custom menus and given only myself access to the full standard menu set. Users only get access to limited menus. But on the new machine, when I sign in with my admin name and password, I no longer have access to the full menu set! The TOOLS menus is gone, as is the LAYOUT menu. I've gone through and through my "Missing Manual" book and can't figure out why this is happening. Anyone have any ideas? For the record, nothing was modified between my laptop and the new machine. Just copied the DB file on to a disc, then copied it from the disc on to the new machine. Open it up, and--voila!--it's suddenly behaving strangely. Can anyone help? Thanks in advance!
Steven H. Blackwell Posted July 21, 2006 Posted July 21, 2006 OK, are you sure you are running FileMaker Pro Advanced on the new machine and not just Filemaker Pro? It's possible that there could be some OS X Unix file permission issues here, but check the actual application first. Steven
Patron Saint of Chimichangas Posted July 25, 2006 Author Posted July 25, 2006 Thanks for the response. Yes, I'm running Advanced on both machines. What's this about Unix permissions?
