    Qwik OSX question

    I think...

    So I made a hidden file - e.g. ".stuff" then like a moron I mistakenly switched permissions to no access When I tried to access it in the go menu it says that it cannot be found. Does anyone know how to make it visible so I can change the permissions and access it again?

    Thanks a million!

    Cheers,
    Alex

    1.right click on tools(above address bar)
    2.select folder options
    3.select view tap
    4.check see hidden files and folder

    should do the trick.

    By all means i'm not a pc wiz...so i might be wrong. But worth a try.

          fire up terminal
          & type the following:
          sudo rm /path/to/file/.filename
          it'll ask you for the administrators password & then remove the file for you
