I accidentally entered sudo chmod 600 -R /
when I meant to enter /Documents/some_file
and now everything comes up as permission denied. The root password isn't working. All my applications are shut down and basically my whole laptop does not have any permissions to do anything.
I have a macbook pro with Mountain Lion installed. I don't have a disk for the OS. Any help is appreciated. Thanks!
2I'd suggest it is time to use the backups you made to restore the filesystem and reverse the permission changes. – mdpc – 2012-12-24T06:58:33.453
