how to restore my Mac?

[HO Mike Frampton]

Hi Tiemo,

I'm not sure if this will help but..
Under Utilities -> Disk Utility there are buttons for "Verify Disk Permissions" and "Repair Disk Permissions".

Might be of use.

Subject: OT: how to restore my Mac?

Hi,

I've just messed up my Mac. I executed by accident chmod in my root and gave all users all permissions to all my files (what I actually didn't wanted).

I am not used to Macs, so what is the easiest way to restore all file permissions? Is there any kind of "reset to factory settings" or what about a restore from time machine, will that restore the file permissions, if the files are older, or do I have to reinstall the system from scratch and if how?

Thanks for any hints

Tiemo
