[GNC] Help accessing data file

[Anna Scott]

Thank you so much Peter!  I found the pathway and was able to successfully reauthorize it again. Whew!   I realized later that the other significant event today was that I updated my Mac software just before this happened, so this appears to be a new security feature … anyway I’m super grateful for you taking time to help me out. Have a wonderful weekend,
A

>> Hello helpers … this is my first question after setting up Gnucash.  When I tried to open the data file today it unexpectedly asked if I wanted Gnucash to access my document folders.  Id never been asked that before and in the interests of security said no.  Of course now when I tried to open my data file it refuses and says it doesn’t have permission!  UGH how can I correct this?  Thanks in advance for all who support this product
