Instead of doing a chmod to your user, it gives the admin group (to which you presumably belong) write access to the specific directories in /usr/local that homebrew uses. It also tells you exactly what it intends to do before doing it.

Hence, the popular answers above cannot be used. Secondly, however, taking a step back, if the main concern is to install or upgrade Homebrew, rather than wanting to change the permissions for /usr/local per se, then it may be overkill (like taking a sledgehammer to hammer a nail) to change the permissions for /usr/local. It affects your whole machine and other software may also be using /usr/local. For example, I have files related to maven and mySQL in /usr/local.

which installs Homebrew inside /usr/local without changing ownership of /usr/local itself. Instead, Cellar, Caskroom, Frameworks, Homebrew, etc. are installed inside /usr/local. This seems to be a more elegant, precise solution in my opinion.

If you happen to have multiple accounts on your mac, chances are, your current account belongs to different user group as the primary account that originally owned /usr/local meaning that none of the solutions above will work.

If you don't have the latest Homebrew: I "fixed" this in the past by forcing Homebrew to run as root, which could only be done by changing the ownership of the Homebrew executables to root. At some point, they removed this feature.

My situation was similar to the OP, however my issue was specifically caused by running sudo with brew cask, and then getting my password incorrect. After this, I was stuck with permissions preventing the installation.

I noticed that the group owner was "staff". (BTW, I'm running macOS Mojave version 10.14.3.) The staff group could be related to my workplace configuration, but I don't really know. Regardless, I preserved the group to prevent myself from breaking anything further.

The slightly odd thing is that it only seems to do it when my phone is at home, i went out this afternoon and the calls made/received have not appeared on her history. so maybe its a wifi thing?...but...

Yes me is two separate people with different names, numbers and emails. Why would I create a separate accounts when we have had iPhones for 5 years with no problems before? This thread is on page 126 on my phone, that has been mentioned ad nauseum. I want the phones to work like they have the last 5 years.

Which begs the question about sharing id's on a secondary iPhones. I have two iPhones one for business one personal. I too was getting inconsistent call history sharing. I fixed it by having two different My Info id's. That was the silver bullet. And others have found this to be a solution. When I was having the problem, if I turned off wifi calling on one of the phones the call history would not be shared, as soon as it was turned back on I would get call history on both phones. For the fan boyz Apple allows sharing one icloud id on multiple devices. Then they take it back by saying

one can not or should not share an iCloud id among multiple users. Which is it? For $1.00 a month I get 50 gig of storage off one iCloud id, why wouldn't want to share pictures and back ups with multiple devices including multiple users which falls under the general heading of MULTIPLE DEVICES? It is time for Apple to give more granularity to families who wish to do the same. Apple should be able to easily set up a switch so that if someone deletes photos

to free up space on an individual iPhone it does not affect those photos in iCloud. The Apple Masters should be able to easily add a switch which shuts off call/messaging history on individual iPhones. I use the two iPhones. I use them the way I want to use them with no deleterious results others should be afforded the same choice. The only reason I see that Apple does not want multiple users on the same iCloud id is probably so that little Johnny can not make app or music purchases with his dad or mom's iCloud id. But by the same token, parents do not have to tell him the password.

Your Apple ID should not be shared with anyone else. It provides access to personal information including contacts, photos, device backups, and more. Sharing your Apple ID with someone else means you are giving them access to all your personal content and may lead to confusion over who actually owns the account. To share iTunes & App Store purchases, photos, a calendar, and more with someone else, try Family Sharing, iCloud Photo Sharing, or other easy-to-use sharing features.

If you have gone to Settings>Contacts>My Info on, say your Work phone, then when you get to your Contacts list, select the Gail W Lala entry for the My Info on that phone. Once you do that, close the apps by double-clicking the Home button and swiping up on all of the thumbnails. Now, go back to your Settings>Contacts>My Info, and in this example, you would now see Gail W Lala. And if you open your Contacts app itself, you will see a little "me" next to your Gail W Lala entry in the Contacts list.

And again, I would recommend that you only put your work phone number on your Work contact card, and your personal phone number on your Personal contact card. Both cards will show on each phone, but they will be distinct from one another and specifically used for either only the Work phone or the Personal phone.

I definitely became an evangelist.. ? What I do not understand is why there so so many people with their thousands of points can not think outside the box. I found the right person to give credit for the solution:

This will solve the problem go to settings--Mail,contacts,calendars-- scroll down to the contacts section and click on the my info tab and change that to the correct iPhone contact number. If your phone is logged into the same iTunes iCloud sign in it defaulted to that main contact. I have a personal phone and business phone and my business phone was listed as my personal contact name under my info that is why all the calls would show in recent calls this will solve the problem.

You don't have to share an Apple ID to share photos. With Family Sharing you get a shared photo album. See the brief description here:Family Sharing - Apple Support about half way down the page. you can have both private and shared albums. Here are more details on sharing with anyone: iCloud Photo Sharing - Apple Support

But for greater flexibility I've found that Google Photos and Upthere.com are much better solutions. You are not restricted to sharing among family members; you can create albums that can be shared with anyone you want to. You can also use dropbox or box.com, although they aren't quite as feature-rich.

First of all, it sounds as if you have a different problem than then subject of this thread. So, you should start your own thread. Second, if you want people to read what your post, you will need to use punctuation.

Start there, and come back with anything that isn't clear. To answer your direct question, you can have up to 6 separate Apple IDs in a family share. The idea is to have a separate ID for each user, however, if a user has more than one device they should use the same Apple ID for all of the individual user's devices.

Hi, I know I will probably annoy allot of higher level members by telling you why your devices aren't behaving as you want, and how to solve it, because I think they know the work around but want to force you to separate your iCloud accounts, or they actually don't know how to solve this. Either way I will probably annoy them.

First of all its not a bug, its the way iCloud has been designed. The culprit is a master call log file that resides in iCloud Drive. Each device that is logged in to the same iCloud account and has "iCloud Drive" enabled will sync to that master call log. Nothing else affects this, FaceTime, continuity, cellular phone call forwarding have no affect no matter if they were on or off.

The only work around possible at the moment, until Apple redesigns how its iCloud service behaves at their end, is to accept that iCloud Drive functionality will not be available and should be turned of for devices that you do not want to sync to the master call log in iCloud Drive, to do this you have to follow these instructions carefully:

2- Most importantly, even if you turn off iCloud Drive for your iPhone(X), but you still find the recent call list from it appearing on your other iPhone(Y) that has iCloud Drive enabled, the culprit is that iPhone(X) is syncing its call list with iCloud Drive indirectly through another device that is linked to it via either the same FaceTime number or via enabling calls on other devices and at the same time has iCloud Drive enabled. For example your wife's phone list is appearing on your phone even though you have iCloud Drive disabled on your wife's phone, the culprit is that your wife's iPad or iMac, has iCloud Drive turned on, and at the same time is linked with the same FaceTime and phone forwarding settings with your wife's iPhone, so your wife's phone is syncing its call list with her iPad, and then her iPad is syncing that list with the master call list in iCloud Drive, because iCloud Drive is enabled on her iPad. The solution is to disable iCloud drive on all devices(iPads, iMacs etc...) related to iPhone(X)'s FaceTime and phone forwarding settings.
