Macromedia Issues

If you're having problems launching Macromedia apps, there are a a few possible causes. Most of these don't become problematic unless you're trying to launch the application as a non-admin user. For your convenience, here are the cut and pastable commands to fix the 2nd and 3rd case mentioned above:
sudo chown root:admin /Library/Application\ Support/Macrovision/AuthenticationService
sudo chmod u+s /Library/Application\ Support/Macrovision/AuthenticationService

sudo chmod 666 /Library/Preferences/Macrovision/SafeCast/Product\ Licenses/BD6FA000.dat
