After updates: Permissions broken. Will not repair!

After the Softare Update applications installed 5 new updates, I ran Permissions Repair with Disk Utility. It found the following files had permissions broken, but they were not fixed:

HI Griff,
About Disk Utility's Repair Disk Permissions Feature
The Repair functions of Disk Utility: what's it all about?
From the last link: "Repair Disk Permissions often produces messages while it is running. These messages are generally of an informational nature and can usually be ignored. Some of these messages may be repeated every time Repair Disk Permissions is run as the receipt for the object in question is forcing the setting of specific permissions, even if no correction is required. Again, these can also be ignored. *Only messages indicating the failure of the Repair Disk Permissions process, or the inability to correct permissions on a specific file or folder, should be of concern."*
The more you educate yourself on the Mac OS X, the more confidence you will have in the system.
I just ran Disk Utility and have the same permissions as you. As long as you see this at the end...
Permissions Repair complete. You're fine.

  • Permissions Problems - Will not repair

    Hi,
    First post in this forum, I just upgraded to a MBP from my seven year old TiBook(used to post in that forum). Still settling into the new system.
    I am having a problem with permissions, see details below. I verify permissions and get this, even after running the repair they still are not repaired. I saw in some other posts that it may be okay depending on what they are for, are these okay?
    Additional info, I was playing with time machine trying to get it set up to use an air disc related or unrelated to this I lost 60gb of hard drive space, spent time on the phone with apple last night and level two tech told me I should just do a re install, do you love that? I did it, re intalled OS from system CD then used migration assistant on first boot pointed to a super duper disc image I had made before the space problem. Seems to have pulled over all my stuff and also this permission issue. This morning I tried running the repair from OS CD, I also used appdelete to delete quick time and re downloaded and installed it, no luck.
    Hope some can shed some light on this for me...

    There is a very long list of these that you can safely ignore:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1448
    The Quicktime permissions errors aren't on that list but you can safely ignore them as well. In a nutshell, Permissions Repair in Leopard is somewhat 'broken' - you can uncheck the Show Details box and only 'real' problems will show up in the list.

  • Problem after Update, mosts apps will not run

    After running some Apple updates this weekend, many applications on my machine no longer work. Everything ran fine before the updates. I have not installed any other new software or hardware for months.
    Any one know what's going on?
    The following apps do not work ... I click on them, they bounce, then I get a submit error
    Firefox
    Safari
    iPhoto (this gets to the point of showing photos)
    iTunes
    The following applications do work
    Mail
    Terminal
    System Preferences
    MS Word
    I have tried creating a new account and running the apps, and that does not work (in the new account, the menu bar keeps disappearing and reappearing implying the Finder keeps crashing.

    if you are having system wide issues archive and install would be the best bet. http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=107120 first however, you must do disk repair http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=106214. hopefully you do not have severe directory damage. if disk utility finds errors it cannot fix, back up your info immediately. you can use a third party app like diskwarrior or techtool pro to attempt fixing the problem, and if it can't be fixed, you will have to erase and install your operating system.

  • After update itunes freezes will not burn playlist to disc

    After I updated to the latest itunes, I cannot burn a playlist to a cd:  message is Disc drive or software not found then itunes freezes up so I have to force close and start over.  Any one else have this problem?  Any ideas on how to fix?

    after update mine now freezes when i switch to miniplayer, download apps, halfway though a song. in short it's unusable.
    hope i can find a way to do a roll-back.

  • After updating firefox it will not startup. norton shows that update.exe is safe??????

    If i click on the popup window for norton i can delete the files in the "0" folder under mozilla-updates folder and firefox will work until it updates itself again. then the process starts over. What can i do to fix this? Without deleting the file, Firefox will not startup

    '''Try the Firefox Safe Mode''' to see how it works there. The Safe Mode is a troubleshooting mode, which disables most add-ons.''
    ''(If you're not using it, switch to the Default theme.)''
    * You can open the Firefox 4.0+ Safe Mode by holding the '''Shift''' key when you use the Firefox desktop or Start menu shortcut.
    * Or use the Help menu item and click on the '''Restart with Add-ons Disabled...''' menu item while Firefox is running.
    ''Don't select anything right now, just use "'Start in Safe Mode"''
    ''To exit the Firefox Safe Mode, just close Firefox and wait a few seconds before using the Firefox shortcut (without the Shift key) to open it again.''
    '''''If it is good in the Firefox Safe Mode''''', your problem is probably caused by an extension, and you need to figure out which one.
    Please follow the [[Troubleshooting extensions and themes]] article for that.
    ''When you figure out what's causing your issues, please let us know. It might help other users who have the same problem.''

  • After update finished-browser will not load on user site

    i upgraded to firefox 4 from 3.6. when the upgrade finished- the browser will not load on one of my user sites. the upgrade froze half way through and the computer restarted on that site. no matter how many times i try to finish the upgrade, it gives me the same results- the browser will not load even though the upgrade window tells me it is finished-every time i try to open the browser window it never comes up

    I googled my problem and found myself at some place with a link
    This was not an Adobe Forum.
    I clicked the link (legitimate) and the update was perfect.
    When I first went to adobe to update , it failed. Gave me some error thing.[ I never update from a popup.]
    Only from the real website. I tried to get help from chat and they referred me to the forum where I guess you found my question.
    I hope this helps someone. All is good now.

  • After updateing my macbook will not turn off

  • I had my iPhone replaced in 2011 because of the camera shutter app defect, and the "genius" put in the wrong serial code and after update the phone will not work. What can I do?

    I took my iPhone to AT&T after I tried to update to iOS 6 and the phone said I needed to insert the original sim card which was what was in the device. AT&T said to take it to apple because it had to be a software issue.  I get to the apple store and they tell me because I replaced my phone because of the defective shutter malfunction the "genius" entered in the wrong serial number by one digit causing the phone to turn into a UK phone and they could not fix it unless I have some sort of reciept or email saying it came from Apple. Mind you this is a year later with a move from TX to HI as well! So what am I able to do?? be out of a phone because they messed up?? They told me I could outright buy a new phone which I am NOT going to do because this phone worked before.

    I cant find any reciept in my email or in my husbands email.  I am going to attempt to call and speak to someone who can help me because this was not my fault except trying to be normal and update my phone!

  • I lost firefox after updating. It will not open and a pop up window comes up saying "Your computer must be restarted to complete a previous upgrade of firefox. Do you want to reboot."

    Nothing happens after reboot, continue to get the same message. If try to uninstall or reinstall firefox get same message and cannot uninstall or reinstall. Any solutions for this problem?
    This is on a Sony Vaio with windows 7. I3 processor

    Try a clean reinstall.
    * Download a fresh Firefox copy and save the file to the desktop.
    * Firefox 7.0.x: http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all.html
    * Uninstall your current Firefox version.
    * Do not remove personal data when you uninstall the current version or you lose your bookmarks and other data in the profile folder.
    * Remove the Firefox program folder before installing that newly downloaded copy of the Firefox installer.
    * It is important to delete the Firefox program folder to remove all the files and make sure that there are no problems with files that were leftover after uninstalling.
    Your bookmarks and other profile data are stored elsewhere in the Firefox Profile Folder and won't be affected by a reinstall, but make sure that you do not select to remove personal data if you uninstall Firefox.

    Since you have the media to reinstall Windows, that will be your best bet.
    Win 10 TP is still a beta. There can be numerous possibilities that resulted in the "black screen" situation. You could be running around like the proverbial " chicken without a head " trying to solve the problem.
    Save the headache, reinstall and start from scratch. Unfortunately you will be losing the files you have not backed up.
    Another suggestion :
    If you can wait and if you have  computer #2......
    It is quite possible that a new build is forthcoming soon.
    Use your computer #2 to download the new build ISO file, burn it to a bootable DVD or USB > use it to install the new build into computer #1.

  • After updates the server will not restart

    I upgraded from Snow Lepord to Lion to Lion Server.  Everything was working ok until I just applied the apple updates and rebooted.  Now the server just stops at the startup page with the circle spinning. 
    Hardware is a 2009 Mac Pro tower. 

    There are various causes for this error, see [[Firefox is already running but is not responding]] for details.

  • After updates phone now will not charge

    Oh you got to love how customer service tell's me,nothing they can do The 1 yrs warrenty is over. Wait I signed a 2yr contract. One year three months and phone shuts off when you plug charger in it. Motorola did upgrades and since then phone hasn't been right,and verizon knows this and isn't doing a thing. So verizon agent says I have to purchase new phone at full price. Umm no, not when its the fault of the upgrades. So when phone battery dies and I don't have cell phone to use, I'm not paying for service on a phone that's dead. If anyone else is having a problem just be ware they do know but there only solution is to buy new cell. So glad I've been loyal customer to get treated like crap.

    You need to have it checked out by apple or a apple service provider. Have you tried to reset the SMC (System Management Controller) and/or PRAM (Parameter Random Access Memory). Mac OS X: What's stored in PRAM?

  • TS3147 printer permissions will not repair?

    Epson printer will not set up or not show up in printer list. And if I try to repair my permissions they will not repair it just runs out a long list of repairs that
    never quite gets repaired right.

    These days it's quite normal to get a long list of 'errors' on doing a permissions repair because Disk Utility has not been upgraded to allow for some changes made to the system.
    As long as at the bottom of the list it says 'Permissions repair complete' you can safely ignore them all.
