Lion Privileges Problem

hello, have been looking @ various forums solution problem, none of seems work. therefore have created forum in hope know solution problem.

have problem on macbook pro lion , saving/deleting files. first of noticed when tried put file in trash, asked me password. asks me password when deleting file documents, desktop, pictures, music etc.

there strange details problem though. first of all, created textwrangler document , saved in documents. saved fine , able move trash without asking password. however, if edit textwrangler document created before problem , try save it, message saying "this operation couldn't completed, because error occurred" , "you not have sufficient privileges perform operation (macos error code: -5000)". though application not apple one, think under same problem.

here have done try , fix it. started changing "sharing & permissions" home folder, read , write set "apply enclosed items". tried disk utility on macintosh hd, repair disk permissions. did not work, verify disk permissions , verify disk tried. restarted pc , ran command + r menu, "resetpassword" typed in terminal. chose username , hard drive, clicked on reset home directory permissions , acls button, again on restart problem stayed.

have created new user account attempt fix it. account part success, part failure. example, if created new file , put in trash, not ask password. however, transferred files new user account old users shared folder, have dragged files in documents folder whenever deleting 1 still asks password

how fix this!? thing can think of reapply priveleges in new user account, maybe there way delete properties on files resets privileges?? don't know how possible.

1 other thing may help. use parallels desktop 7. other day trying save file using windows 7 virtual machine, failed due privileges guess part of same problem. this, safari has not been saving history or bookmarks add - although different, might same problem. however, on new account safari saves bookmarks , history fine.

 

i wondering if knows solution without reinstalling whole operating system. maybe has suggestion missed while completing steps above?
