I know I can turn on and off permission in System Preferences -> Security & Privacy -> Privacy -> Contacts
, but what I want to do is force OS X to ask for permission again. This is for testing purposes... I.e. I maybe have a bug that gets triggered when the permission request dialog is shown.
Any ideas where the "asked" flag is being stored, so I can blow it away? I've checked in ~/Library/Application Support/AddressBook/
and a bunch of other obvious places.
If you don't have permission to open a file or folder, you may be able to change the permissions settings. On your Mac, select the item, then choose File > Get Info, or press Command-I. Click the arrow next to Sharing & Permissions to expand the section.
To review app permissions—for example, if you later decide to give a denied app access to your Mac—choose Apple menu > System Settings, click Privacy & Security in the sidebar, then click Accessibility on the right. (You may need to scroll down.) Turn permission on or off for any app in the list.
To change application permissions on a mac, click the Apple icon → Click "System Preferences" → Click "Security & Privacy" → Click "Privacy" → Click on a service → Click the check box to add or remove an app's permission to the selected service.
Just needed to do this myself...on the command line do:
tccutil reset AddressBook
Solution is Go to General - Reset - Reset Location & Privacy.
