To specify owner privileges in Mac OS X select the file or folder with a single click then either right click and select Get Info or press the Command key (cmd) and I to open the Info window. At the bottom of the window you can allocate privileges for individuals or groups or add new names to the list by clicking the +(plus) button. You can specify the owner from the adjacent drop down menu. You need to be an administrator for the computer to make these changes.
