[X-Apps] Safari warning...

[Bill Reburn]

The fix is in there - sorry forgot which thread.. A member named Tooky
posted;

__________________________
Go into terminal and type:

ln -s /private/tmp /tmp

Include spaces. 

Then log out an log in again.  Make sure your Admin.

Problems should be solved.

The first letter  is a lower case L like Ellen.

For some reason Safari wipes out the 'tmp" file whatever that is.

And I remember when Mac meant ease of use.

This fixed Software Update and MacJanitor for me.
(neither were working as of late - yesterday!)

Hopefully this is 'The Fix' for everyone..
