Can somebody please help me?

Hello!

I am new here and I really hope somebody can help.
I have maybe done my biggest mistake

I have changed the permissions in filesharing on my internal HD (Macintosh HD) to no access.
It is the folder called Everybody.
It should be read only I think.
Administrator is still read and write
And now my Mac want even boot up.
I have tried everything and have found out that only solution is fixing it in terminal.
But I dont know how.
Can somebody please help me???

Best regards

Here's a post that might help:
"HOLY!!!!!! I'm in, I'm in, I'm in, I'm in!!!!!!! I've never been so happy!!!!!!!!!! YES!!!!! Thank you all sooo very much!!!! here's what I did..

In Single User Mode... I starting reading the text that is printed to the screen prior to the command prompt.. there were lines that said:

Mounted as read only

To modify files:
/sbin/fsck -fy
/sbin/mount -uw /

I ran each command... then used:

chmod 1775 /

I received the :/ root# prompt...

Then typed "exit" (to boot)..

WHAM!!!!! Login screen... entered password... everything is set!!

I almost (almost) have tears in my eyes!!!

Thank you thank you thank you!!!!!!!

YES!!!!!!!!!!!"

Hello!

There Is Just One Thing To Say Now And That Is

I Love You!!!

Thank You So Much For Saving Me And My Entire Life That I Have In My Mac.

I Actually Got Tears In My Eyes When I Saw The Log In Window Again And The Picture Of My 9 Weeks Old Son.

Thank You So Much!

With All The Best Thanks!

Lol! I'm glad that the post worked for you and I love you too! Please, consider backing up your valuable files to an external hard drive or a dvd or cd. Even though Macs are great, hard drives will not last forever.

He he!

I will do and I have already ordered an external HD.

Keep up the good work!

Chicago is a great city by the way.
I was there in february with my work.
Great city and great girls

Chicago has its good spots but there are many neighborhoods that you should avoid. The girls are great! Especially the Wrigleyville and Downtown girls. Ah, being single is great!!!!
