Make sure the folder itself has the right permissions,
I tried the same thing, but it didn't start working till
I made sure the folder /Users/Shared has read/write for
group/owner and everybody else

Hello,
I'm trying to make a file that can be written by all the users on a
machine. Specifically, I'm creating a file with a hiscore list in the
/Users/Shared folder. I'm using NSArchiver's archiveRootObject: toFile:
to save the object to the file. Then I use the NSFileManager methods to
set permissions so that everybody can read and write to that file.
But when I run my program from another user, it cannot write to the
file. It seems, the program is trying to replace the old file with a
new one and only the owner of the file can do that.
So, anyone have a suggestion on how I could maybe just update the
file?
I must be doing something wrong, because I've tested saving a file
with TextEdit, then changing it's permissions so that all the users can
write to it, and then when I open it from another user's account, I'm
able to modify it and save it...
I'm sorry if this has been discussed, I've been all the afternoon
looking on the net and on the archives, but didn't find a solution...
