Fixing permissions on this matter

A

Addie

Ups, it seems I sent it as a mail reply instead of posting.

Alright so, check the permissions of this file:

ls -l ~/System/Preferences/Microsoft/Office\ 2008/OLE\ Registration\
Database\ 2008

Chances are the owner of it is "root", it has to be you so, run as
root (sudo -s didn't work for me for some reason) the following
command:

chown user:staff ~/System/Preferences/Microsoft/Office\ 2008/OLE\
Registration\ Database\ 2008

And everything should work now. It's important that all you change is
"user" and the group is "staff".

Worked for me!
