Insufficient perms/long filename errors

I formatted a WD external HDD to have an HFS+(for backup using SuperDuper) and 2 FAT partitions. I had been using the hard drive without any errors, and did a reformat of OS X recently. Then, I wiped the three partitions on external HDD. When trying to copy files that I downloaded a day or two ago (after OS X reformat), from OS X's downloads folder to the HFS partition, it shows an error that some files have long filenames and cannot be copied. Some other files show error of insufficient permission.
Can it be fixed?

I was trying to copy files downloaded to my Macbook HD to an non-journaled HFS+ partition and it worked. However, when I tried to copy the same files from the external HDD to a different folder on Macbook HD, it shows an error about insufficient permissions.
For the partition in external drive, I've checked "ignore permissions" and my username shows up under the list of owners. I also did a repair/repair permissions from Disk utility in the OS X install DVD. The DVD and Macbook contains the same OS X version (10.5.5), so I don't think an out-of-date Disk Utility messed up things.
I'd run the external HDD and Macbook with 10.5.5, without any problems before reinstalling OS X and problems cropped up.

ITunes store error -37 (long filename?)

I purchased 54 songs (Stravinsky, actually) and one of them would not and will not download, giving an error of "stopped, err = -37". According to the store support e-mail response, it may have something to do with long filenames. They cited this: http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=106646
However, I am using iTunes 7.0.2 on OSX 10.4.8 -- hardly likely to be a problem unless the filename was set too long on the iTunes store servers.
Or it may be some entirely different and unrelated problem; either way I am missing "Pulcinella - Ballet in One Act: X. Anyone know of a workaround/solution?
Intel iMac 17" Mac OS X (10.4.8)

Oh yes: when I try again, the alert says "Please check that the connection to the network is active and try again". My network connection is fine.

How about some information, i.e. operating system & version, browser & version, Flash Player version, and what you are doing when you get that error message?

Z30 Camera hardware Error or Insufficient Permissions

Since the Verizon update to 10.2.1.2126 I cannot use my camera and receive the message " camera can't be started due to hardware error or insufficient permissions". I have attempted restarts and pulled the sim to reload the OS directly from Blackberry but still the same error. I finally gave up and contacted Verizon but the replacement they sent was a refurb unit and there was no power left at all on the unit. I charged it and when it started it immediately went into a screen that in engish asked if I wanted to enable blackberry reader assistance but the selections for i guess yes or no were in what looked like russian. I would press the right selection which was i believe no and the next screen to come up you needed to select the language. I would press english, the speaker output would say english but no touch screen box would show up. I restarted the z30 3 more times before i finally pressed the left selection which i assume was accept then i could select english, touch screen would work and it went thru the startup progress getting to the point to download a updated os which i did. It took about 20 minutes to download the update on wifi and about 1 hour to install it. After installation it asked to restart which i selected yes and after 2 minutes the screen was blank and the green led was solid. I left it this way until i woke up this morning and held down the power button to restart. The restart took 30 minutes and it now shows 10.2.1.2126
The problem is I don t trust this refurb and I would like to get the camera working on my z30 that is only 3 months out of the box. Any suggestions?

Watching for Possible Solutions-I am having the same issue and I have done a security wipe and reset twice to try and fix this with no success.

Insufficient permissions for software installation

We are experiencing following error message when installing software from software center using SCCM 2012 SP1 “Insufficient Permissions for software installation”. only when users (without local
admin) are login. This error is only happening to small number of clients while other clients are installing with no issue.
I have found following KB and it is the same issue:
http://social.technet.microsoft.com/Forums/en-US/e2e68509-d6ee-4975-86b5-4894d2d6895f/software-center-permissions-error-sccm-2012?forum=configmanagerapps
Is it possible a GPO policy and if yes what will be the configuration information to verify.

Hi,
Are there two clients with this error in the same domain and with the same GPO applied?

What to do if it is telling me I have "Insufficient Permissions?"

Well I've been having several problems.
First is when I go to install it I get a screen saying that the file "C:\Windows\System\32\Macroomed\Flash\NPSWF32.dll:5" could not be written due to insufficient permissions. I have no idea how to fix this or change it.
Here's a picture of the message that pops up:
And whenever I try to click the troubleshooting for it, it wont take me anywhere. The link is basically useless. I've tried uninstalling and reinstalling flash player. But nothing seems to work.
Next is whenever I try to go install the plugins (for mozilla firefox) I get messages saying that the file cannot be downloaded. Or there is an error or something, but overall it basically says that the plugin cannot be installed.
I hope someone can help me. Any advice would be insanely helpful.

Hi, ok that's out of the way. When you had a problem trying to Install Flash Player in FF, I'm not sure what that Insuffieient Permissions message was referring to. If you are the Administrator, which you must be or you wouldn't have been able to Install in IE, then it may have been about not using the DLM.
The first thing you want to make sure is that the Security for the Internet Zone is set to Medium. And now that it is appearing that Firefox is getting restrictive about permissions, etc. as ActiveX is under IE, we need to make sure that no Anti-Virus will be blocking it. If your AV didn't block IE, then we are ok on that.
Download the Flash Player Installer for Firefox and SAVE it to your Desktop:
http://fpdownload.macromedia.com/get/flashplayer/current/install_flash_player.exe
Once that is done, Close All browsers. RUN the Installer and when it is finished, Reboot Once.
Then check your Flash files folder and post back the files now listed. Then check the plug-ins for that SWF and make sure it is Enabled.
Hopefully this will be successful. If you get any messages during this Install, make a note and let me know.
Thanks,

Insufficient permissions to create node on Note component

Hi team,
I am creating a simple chat app in LCCS. Our guest have role of 50 and we are using knocking feature. I have added all the components and they work fine for both the guest and host except for notes component. When we have notes component in the code when the guests comes in (before the acceptance in the queue) , we get following exception. We can just dismiss the exception and everything works fine. Why are we getting the exception?. Here is the stack trace,

I would try to login as owner (100) first then try to login again as a user (50).
Other than that take a look at the room console and see if the Access Model or Publisher Model is too high.

Insufficient Permissions (OSX 10.5.8)

So I posted another thread in which Flash Builder 4 Eclipse plugin kept crashing on me with a Configuration error and asking me to uninstall and reinstall FB4. After several days of this issue to no avail I've decided to try the FB4 Standalone version. Now, let me first point out that I am the ONLY ADMIN on my OSX installation yet, everytime I click - Help > Install New Software... I am presented with the "Insufficient Permissions" message. How can this be? Again, I am the only admin.
If anyone knows anything on either issue, your help will be most welcomed!
~gb

I'll answer my own question since this in my opinion is very silly on Adobes part. One must have root access under OSX to install plugins under FB4 standalone. I guess Admin access is not enough. One would think that this would be as under OSX you can have a Guest, Standard, or Admin account. There should be no reason why you should EVER have to login into root just to do something at the level of installing plugins to an applications.
This is just plain silly...

Insufficient permissions for system restart

Hi All,
We are receiving the following error when attempting to restart a domain controller, after MS updates have been installed, from within SCCM 2012 R2 CU1 software center.
"Insufficient permissions for System Restart"
"Restarting this computer is only allowed for users with administrative permissions, or your IT department does not allow you to restart this computer"
The user on the domain controller can restart the server using a normal windows shutdown procedure outside of the software center, as they are in the Active Directory domain "backup operators" group.
The domain controller is running server 2008 R2 SP1. The SCCM 2012 infrastructure is running R2 CU1 with the latest client installed on the domain controller.
Any help would be very much appreciated.
Regards PowerShell90

Hi Garth,
Thanks for the quick reply
Domain administrators can install the updates and reboot within software centre without a problem. No restrictions have been put in place for the domain controllers or backup operators. We allow the Microsoft default option to allow members of
the domain "Backup Operators" to shut down domain controllers. They are able to do this on the DC, but they get an error when trying to complete this through SCCM 2012 R2 CU1 software centre. I can't understand why?

Why do I get the message "Insufficient Permissions" when trying to download updated iTunes software

Why do I get "Insufficient Permissions" message?

That one's consistent with disk/file damage. The first thing I'd try with that is running a disk check (chkdsk) over your C drive.
XP instructions in the following document: How to perform disk error checking in Windows XP
Vista instructions in the following document: Check your hard disk for errors
Windows 7 instructions in the following document: How to use CHKDSK (Check Disk)
Select both Automatically fix file system errors and Scan for and attempt recovery of bad sectors, or use chkdsk /r (depending on which way you decide to go about doing this). You'll almost certainly have to schedule the chkdsk to run on startup. The scan should take quite a while ... if it quits after a few minutes or seconds, something's interfering with the scan.
Does the chkdsk find/repair any damage? If so, can you get an install to go through properly afterwards?

Why does lightroom 4 trial tell me insufficient permissions?

When i try t o download the trial of lightroom 4 it tells me Insufficient Permissions - why and what does that mean? How do I get this to work?

Thank you for the update 46travels. Joewh this is a good point does your system meet the required system requirements listed at http://www.adobe.com/products/photoshop-lightroom/tech-specs.html. I am unsure why this would cause an insufficient permissions error message when trying to download the software as it is a direct download. But it is certainly something to consider.
To clarify you do receive the insufficient permissions when you are downloading and not when you have initiated the installation of the software? Also are you able to download any other files successfully? There is nothing special about the Lightroom 4 download other than it is downloading an exe file under Windows. Are you able to download other exe files successfully?

Find long filename on a server?

Find long filename?
Hello,
Do you know a software (or a script) to find/list long filename (more than 255 characters) on a server (Win 2003R2 SP2)?
I've tried "Long Filename Finder" v1.1 (http://dcsoft.com/products/longff/longff.htm), but it doesn't function correctly on Win 2003.
Thanks,
Christophe

I found this Perl script when searching on the internet, it may help you:
[simple Perl-script]
# check if filenames are longer then 64 characters
# and if filename+path are longer then 255 characters
# as this makes resetting permissions or copying
# files a nightmare
use File::Basename;
$szFolder=shift @ARGV;
$szLogFile=shift @ARGV;
if ($szFolder eq "")
parameters();
} else {
if ($szLogFile eq "")
parameters();
} else {
# open logfile
open(OUTPUTFILE,">$szLogFile") || die;
listfiles($szFolder);
close(OUTPUTFILE);
sub listfiles
local $szBaseDir=$_[0];
use File::Find;
sub process_dirs
$szPath=$File::Find::name;
$szFile=basename($szPath);
print "Checking: $szFile\n";
if ((length $szPath) > 255)
$nPathLength=length $szPath;
print "Full pathname $szPath is $nPathLength characters, which exceeds limit of 255 characters\n";
print OUTPUTFILE "Full pathname $szPath is $nPathLength characters, which exceeds limit of 255 characters\n";
if ((length $szFile) > 64)
$nFileNameLength=length $szFile;
print "File $szPath is $nFileNameLength characters, which exceeds filename limit of 64 characters\n";
print OUTPUTFILE "File $szPath is $nFileNameLength characters, which exceeds filename limit of 64 characters\n";
find (\&process_dirs, $szBaseDir);
sub parameters
print "Usage: Check-files-and-paths.pl path logfile\n";
[end of Perl-script]
So get a machine with Perl installed (note only standard Perl modules are used here), kick-off the script like this
"Check-files-and-paths.pl D:\ C:\I-HATE-FILES-WITH-LONG-PATHNAMES.TXT"

Sorry but this video is no longer available error occurs on Yahoo. Video plays for the lead in commercial but not the main video.

I get Sorry but this video is no longer available error when I try to play any video on the Yahoo website. The lead in commercial play but as soon as the desired video is supposed to start the error appears. I can go to youtube, Facebook, and other sites and play videos.
Thanks your your help and concideration

Perehaps their server was down? Just tried it on my 10.7.3 MBP and it worked fine. Make sure your flash plugin is up to date and you should be good.
