    To change file and folder ownership from "root  admin" to "Mark  staff" within ~/.config folder (in Mark's home directory): in Terminal, please run this sudo (super user do) chown (change ownership) command with -R (recursive) option:

    sudo chown -R Mark:staff /Users/Mark/.config

    Note: the sudo command prompts for password to verify authorization to become root (super user).  As root, using path to Mark's home directory since ~ is a shortcut to the current user's home directory.

    To verify ownership change in Terminal, please run this list (ls) command:

    ls -alR ~/.config

    After ownership changed, please try logging into Logos 4 Mac.

    Thanks for that. I changed the command instead to sudo chown -R Mark /Users/Mark/.config

    It's all working now.

    On a completely separate matter - do you do any freelance work. We have a small office with an all mac setup. We have had problems with file permissions on each computer for the purposes of sharing. I was wondering if we could pay you to look at our logs and assist us in making sure we have all the file permissions set up correctly.

    If that's of interest to you feel free to email me mark (at) mrassociates (dot) org

    Once again, thanks for your help.

    During one of the past updates I started having the logon problem also on my desktop I will try these fixes and see if it works. Funny thing though is I have the same updates on my laptop and have never had the logon issue.

    I began having this log in issue as well a couple of weeks ago.  I too get the "Unable to change file mode..." message. Can someone walk me through the fix. I am unable to do it from the above info.

     

    Thanks

    To change bmickey9 home directory file and folder ownership from "root  admin" to "bmickey9  staff", in Terminal, please run this sudo (super user do) chown (change ownership) command with -R (recursive) option:

    sudo chown -R bmickey9:staff /Users/bmickey9

    Note: the sudo command prompts for password to verify authorization to become root (super user).  As root, using path to bmickey9's home directory since ~ is a shortcut to the current user's home directory.

    To verify ownership change in Terminal,  please run these four list (ls) directory commands (one at a time):



    ls -ld ~

    ls -ld ~/.config

    ls -ld ~/.mono

    ls -ld ~/Documents

     

    After ownership changed, suggest logging out and in (or restarting Mac), then try logging into Logos 4 Mac.

    I am still having this issue on my MacBook. Are there any other suggestions from anyone?

  • I am still having this issue on my MacBook. Are there any other suggestions from anyone?

    Wonder about Logos 4 Mac version ?  Perhaps use steps => Update Error  to manually update Logos 4 Mac application.

    Curious about diagnostic log content; wiki Mac Troubleshooting => How to Report Bugs in Logos 4 Mac includes link to 5504.Logos4MacLogging.app.zip (display logging setting, then optionally change); also links to Logos Log Scribe (create zip file of Logging folder with copy of console messages)

    Other option is contacting Logos Mac Support => http://www.logos.com/about/contact  With your permission, Logos can connect with desktop sharing (Monday thru Friday).

    Anton Antig fixed me up!

     

    Thanks to everyone that helped.....issue solved.

    I'm having this problem also and have had it for some time now. Just wondering why there has not been a simple answer posted here to such a simple issue. Every other app builder in existence does this without a problem but for some reason this is an unanswerable issue here. Why no options to keep logged in or a place in the app to store your user information and a check box to say whether you want auto log-in or not. Is it really that difficult or just not worth the time?

    Dennis, I can't really answer your question, but I can tell you that my issue was a permissions issue that Anton repaired by remote login.  Give Customer Service a call and see what they can do for you. They were very helpful and were able to fix the problem. I wish I had called them back in June when the problem first started presented itself.

    Good Luck and God Bless!

  • Why no options to keep logged in or a place in the app to store your user information and a check box to say whether you want auto log-in or not.

    Observation: Logos 4 on Mac and PC does store Logos.com user account and password information.

    If Program Settings => Use Internet is Yes, then Logos 4 does an automatic login each time program is launched (allows security certificates to be updated).  Caveat: folder and file permissions can interfere with automatic login.  Occasionally Logos servers are unavailable (seem to remember a login issue for many hours one day).

    If Program Settings => Use Internet is No, then Logos 4 works offline (using resource licenses downloaded during a previous connection).

    I wrote this up to complete all the posts for those of us with problems the easy way.










    First thing in a word processor change Your username the username of your computer.

    When you type into Terminal: chmod 700 ~/.config/.mono/keypairs

    If you
    obtain the results: chmod: Unable to change file mode on /Users/Your username/.config/.mono/keypairs: Operation not permitted

    You will need to first type in:  sudo chown -R Your username /Users/Your username/.config

    Hit return. You have signed in as
    the superuser, or root user.

    Next type in: ls -alR
    ~/.config
    and hit return.
    You will not see anything happen but it has.

    Next type in: ls -ld ~ and hit return. You will not see anything happen
    but it has.

    Next type in: ls -ld ~/.mono and hit return. You will not see anything happen
    but it has

    Next type in: ls -ld ~/Document and hit return. You will not see anything happen
    but it has

    The next time you login, it will be the last time you will
    use your login and password. Then quit Logos. The next time you start Logos,
    all your woes will disappear.
