Adobe, Google, etc., use the Apple security frame works and interfaces to
temporarily elevate privileges to write their respective data to
/Library/Application Support, which is actually where this data should go,
based on Apple guidance. There is extensive documentation on this whole issue
Hi,

Hi,
Shared data is common to all users, but the user never edits its
content. The file contains encrypted data for the correct operation of
the program. You are thinking of a typical text editor, for example, but
it is not something like that. In this case, I need shared data for all
users
Davidap,
I still can’t understand your use case. You say you have a server, but is it a
remote or a local one? I ask that because Uli’s recommendation is to have a
local server for users in the same machine to share the data between them. Yet,
from a development standpoint, that would be
Uli,
Yes, you’re right. My bad.
If two users (for instance, through remote access or Fast User Switching) open
and edit the same file, bad things will happen.

Hi,
I actually currently use a server and the keychain, but I want to share
general data with offline users. I will never use the shared directory
of a user, the best way would be in / Application Support in
.localDomainMask, but I don't know why some applications can and others
cannot (the

I am sure this is documented somewhere, but I hope I could help you.

I'm not sure to understand why you think a folder whose path is
/Users/Shared could not be used to share things among users.
If the issue you see is that once a user creates a file or directory
in /Users/Shared, only this user can manipulate them, just change the
POSIX permissions to make them
But in / Users / Shared I need to know which user installed the
application. How to share application data with users, I guess there
must be an easier way or some way to ask for root privileges to use ~ /
Library / Application Support / com.example.MyApp / directory with
localDomainMask.
with localDomainMask is precisely the one that gives me the writing error

Yup. You want ~/Library/Application

Hi,
Apple say:
/Application Support : Contains all app-specific data and support files.
These are the files that your app creates and manages on behalf of the
user and can include files that contain user data.//
