Bitmap needs to be repaired on SD card

Hi,
Have a micro SD card 128GB that I'm having problems with. Doesn't seem to want to work at all. Have it in the adapter in the SD card slot and have tried to verify and repair disk and this is what I'm getting.
PLEASE HELP!

Are you saying that the Repair was not successfully?
How was the card formatted? In a PC?
Maybe
exFAT mounting problem

I sent my Iphone 5c in for repair and when they sent it back my sim card wasn't in it is there any way i can have them send it back or do I need to get a new sim card for it?

You'll have to get a new one from your carrier. I believe the shipping instructions for mail in service explicitly tell you to take it out as you will most likely not receive the same phone back. Apple doesn't repair most phones, they replace them.

Volume bitmap needs minor repair for orphaned blocks

Every once in a while I'll verify permissions using disk utility. A few weeks ago I ran the verify disk and it came up with an issue like the one below. I repaired it and now it has happened again. This is the 3rd time actually. Is my SSD having issues and need replacement or is this common?

Thanks.

The repair is inevitable and the sooner done the less data corruption will occur. Since the previous repair, has any app crashed or have you had to force-quit one? Under normal circumstances, this is the usual cause: the app craps out and doesn't get a chance to free up disk space used on temp files and such before croaking.

I need to get a new wifi card for my mac air. do i have to buy this from a apple store? i live fare away from an apple store.

I spilled some red wine on my keyboard and i cannot connect to the internet any more. it says on the internet icon: Wi-fi: no harware installes. so i guess i need to get a new wifi card for my mac air. do i have to buy this from a apple store? i live fare away from an apple store. Also, I do have a macbook with software system:
System Version: Mac OS X 10.6.8 (10K549). can I take out the wifi card from that mack and use that one for my mac air?

Welcome to Apple Support Communities
Consider yourself lucky that your MacBook is still working. Now, turn it off. Wine may have damaged other parts of your computer.
Then, take the MacBook to an Apple Store or reseller. It will be a very expensive repair, as it's not covered by warranty and the logic board has to be replaced. In some cases, it may be better to get a new MacBook.
If you can't take it to an Apple Store, contact with Apple > http://support.apple.com/kb/HE57

"Error: disk needs to be repaired.. "

When I run disk utility I got the message "Error disk needs to be repaired.." In addition i got the errors:
Incorrect number of file hard links
Volume bitmap needs minor repair for orphaned blocks
Invalid volume free block count
When I restart and after command R, I run the Disk utility but then it shows no errors, what is the problem then?. Thanks

Try removing these one at a time:
     /Home/Library/Containers/com.apple.iPhoto/
     /Home/Library/Preferences/com.apple.iPhoto.plist and com.apple.iPhoto.LSSharedFileList.plist
     /Home/Pictures/iPhoto Library
Place one at a time into the Trash but do not Empty the Trash. Try to open and use iPhoto. If iPhoto works then the item you put in the Trash is the cause of the problem. If the problem turns out to be iPhoto Library, then you will need to look to a third-party utility that can fix the library.
To find the invisible library folder:
Exposing the /Home/Library/ Folder
Pick one of the following methods:
A. This method will make the folder visible permanently. Open the Terminal application in your Utilities folder and paste the following at the command prompt:
chflags nohidden ~/Library
Press RETURN.
B. Click on the Desktop, press the OPTION (⌥) button, select Library from the Finder's Go menu.
C. Select Go To Folder from the Finder's Go menu. Paste the following in the path field:
~/Library
Press the Go button.

So after much reading online I have figured out that if I insert the leopard 10.5 installation disk I can repair my hard drive (I no longer have this disk)
So here is my quesion: (and please correct anything above if my understanding is wrong)
Since I am going to be purchasing an installation disk anyway...can I
1. go ahead and purchase the 10.6 disk and still repair my hard drive, then upgrade (or upgrade then repair the hard drive or will installing the new 10.6 automatically repair anything that was wrong with the hard drive) or
2. will I have to purchase 10.5 repair the hard drive then purchase 10.6 to upgrade
Would someone please help me with this. I'm not trying to find a quick answer without putting in the work, I have searched online for answers to these questions for hours and the repair shop is now closed...I would just like someone to help me before I pull all my hair out

Obviously, you cannot repair the drive without an installation DVD or another bootable device such as a bootable external backup drive. This can be either a Leopard or Snow Leopard disc.
You need to repair the disk before trying to upgrade OS X. You do not need the Leopard DVD if you have a Snow Leopard DVD.
In the interim you can try doing the following:
Boot into single-user mode. After startup is completed you will be in command line mode and should see a prompt with a cursor positioned after it. At the prompt enter the following then press RETURN:
/sbin/fsck -fy
If you receive a message that says "***** FILE SYSTEM WAS MODIFIED *****" then re-run the command until you receive a message that says "** The volume (name_of_volume) appears to be OK." If you re-run the command more than seven times and do not get the OK message, then the drive cannot be repaired this way. If you were successful then enter:
reboot
and press RETURN to restart the computer.

HD needs to be repaired

Hi
I just downloaded the latest version of Onyx (Leopard version, I am running OS X 10.5.1), and I ran the verify start up volume. It said it needed to be repaired, so I ran OS X's disk utility and verified the startup volume. I got the following message (Verify failed). My query is should I be worried?
I have had no problems with anything, all seems to be working fine.
Thanks
David

Error: Filesystem verify or repair failed.

Hi,
Simply insert the OS DVD that came with your MacBook (DVD 1) and start up from it. Once you get past the Language selection window, from the menubar select Utilities->Disk Utility (I think). You'll then be able to select your internal hard disk and run Repair Disk (note: you will probably have to run it 2-3 times for the repairs to complete).
Should the above be successful then we have a result. If not and the symptoms still persist you may need to use more powerful disk repair utilities like DiskWarrior.

My HD needs to be Repaired every month. Is this normal?

I joined the Apple family in February 2012 with the purchase of my MacBook Pro 15". The MBP has been working absolutely wonderfully and confirms why I gave up on Windows and PCs. The only "fly in the soup" has been that I must run Repair Disk at least once a month due to errors found when I verify my HDD.
Is this normal maintenance or not? If it is not then why do I need to do it so often? Any insights would be greatly appreciated.

"Incorrect size for file temp" alerts can be safely ignored
You may notice some "Incorrect size for file tempnumber" alerts when you attempt to verify or repair a volume using Disk Utility or fsck_hfs with the "-l" option. You can safely ignore these alerts for any "tempnumber" files.
For example, you might see something like this:
Verifying volume “Macintosh HD”
Checking HFS Plus volume.
Checking Extents Overflow file.
Checking Catalog file.
Incorrect size for file temp420595
(It should be 0 instead of 84538)
Incorrect size for file temp468627
(It should be 0 instead of 16464)
Checking multi-linked files.
Checking Catalog hierarchy.
Checking volume bitmap.
Checking volume information.
The volume Macintosh HD needs to be repaired.
Error: The underlying task reported failure on exit
1 HFS volume checked
Volume needs repair
If this happens, use fsck in single user mode, or start up your computer from a different volume before verifying or repairing.
Advanced: This issue can happen because the on-disk size for truncated open-unlinked files doesn't get updated before you start a live verification. The presence of these files doesn't cause an issue because their in-memory size is correct. These files are deleted as soon as they are closed. If your computer does not shut down normally, they will be deleted during the next startup.
Using Disk Utility to verify or repair disks

Power PC G5 -,"The volume%@needs to be repaired."1)

Hi folks, turned on our G5 this morning to be met with our usual screen saver, but no Dock, no hard drive on the desktop, no apple logo no finder in the top left corner and everything to the right of that apart from spotlight showing. Restarted the computer holding down the shift key with everything seeming as normal now. Restarted again and every thing worked and looked normal, so I went into Disc Utility to verify the disk but this message appeared before end of verifying -
Verifying volume “Macintosh HD”
Checking HFS Plus volume.
Checking Extents Overflow file.
Checking Catalog file.

*volume %@ needs to be repaired.",1)* - this line in red

*Error: The underlying task reported failure on exit* - this line in red

What does this mean ? will something like disc warrior fix this ? or can some one please help with any suggestions.

Disk needs to be repair

Hello. Today i was running my routine check-ups on my computer when i encountered an error in disk utility while running a verify disk. The following error is listed below:
Verifying volume “Macintosh HD”
Checking HFS Plus volume.
Checking Extents Overflow file.
Checking Catalog file.
Checking multi-linked files.
Checking Catalog hierarchy.
Checking Extended Attributes file.
Checking volume bitmap.

(It should be 5494700 instead of 5492633)",2)
The volume Macintosh HD needs to be repaired.
Error: The underlying task reported failure on exit
1 HFS volume checked
Volume needs repair
After i encountered this error i ram the permissions which were fine. I then went to my Tech-Tools and tried to run that as well but failed at the last step which was "Volume Structure".
I read up on a few of the errors that were listed and they seem to not encounter many problems. Mainly errors about "journals"? Not really sure what this all means and was wondering if there are any issues here. Also if these errors are nothing to worry about will this disrupt any future checks that i might need to do with disk utility in the future. Any help would be appreciated. Thank You.

There are in fact two boot modes which can be confused:
Safe Boot - startup with shift key. This stops the startup items loading and drivers upon startup.
Single user mode - startup with command-S. This brings you up in a superuser command screen which let's you run fsck.
The purpose of the former is to see if any drivers or startup items are interrupting your startup, and if so, get a chance to uninstall them and later inform the publisher of those software of a possible operating system issue with their system addon.
The purpose of the latter is the ability to run the almost equivalent of Disk Utility Repair Disk when you don't have an installer disk at the ready that can do it. Note, I say almost equivalent. If you really want to do it thoroughly, you need the operating system installer disk which installed the last boot operating system on your computer.
Single User mode also gives you command line control of files and permissions as well. Since that part of it is dangerous if you don't know what you are doing, I won't give you instructions here as it is not relevant to the current thread.
Neither troubleshooting method is recommended without first having backed up your data. In fact anytime you install new software, or update it, it is wise to backup first.

How to proceed from Disk repair "invalid directory item count" "this disk needs to be repaired"?

I'm trying to repair the hard drive on a MacBook running Mac OS X 10.6.8. To be honest I'm surprised the machine has lasted so long. It's very sluggish at the moment.
When verifying the hard drive, I get these details:
Verifying volume “Macintosh HD”
Performing live verification.
Checking Journaled HFS Plus volume.
Checking extents overflow file.
Checking catalog file.
Checking multi-linked files.
Checking catalog hierarchy.
Invalid directory item count
(It should be 37 instead of 35)
Checking extended attributes file.
Checking volume bitmap.
Checking volume information.
The volume Macintosh HD was found corrupt and needs to be repaired.
"This disk needs to be repaired. Start up your computer with another disk (such as your Mac OS X installation disc), and then use Disk Utility to repair this disk."
How should I proceed from here? Is the only path to use a mac OS X installation disk (which I don't have, so would have to source and borrow)?
Many thanks

Get the disk and insert it in the optical drive, then restart holding down the C key. You will come to an install screen to pick language. Unless you want some other language click inter. Then before you go any further, look to the top of the screen for a drop down utilities menu. Go to disk utilities open an select your Internal hard drive use repair option in the menu and repair drive . You may have to do this more than once. If this will not repair you drive,you will need a third party repair tool such as disk warrior or a new drive.

Error:The Disk needs to be repaired

Hopefully someone can help guide me. I have been noticing a few more spinning beach balls. Nothing dramatic but as a recent convert to Mac (about 1 year) it has me frustrated. A few months ago they got worse and disk utility said my drive was corrupted. Disk utility could not resolve it and through a suggestion I rebooted from the install disk and it repaired the drive. Now with a routine check of disk utility I received a message like below. So I used disk utility from the start up disk to repair the error successfully. Now, just rechecking two days later, it appears that the error is back. Is this something to worry about? If so, it seems I need a more robust tool to repair the disk. Any suggestions? Anyway to tell which program might be causing this? Thanks in advance for any help offered.

Thanks for your response. I finally received my DVD from Disk Warrior in the mail, ran the program and everything seems to be fixed and running more smoothly. Thanks for the tip. Sorry it took a bit to respond back. Thanks again.

+The volume Macintosh HD needs to be repaired.+

I have no idea what this means beyond the fact that my hard disk must be **** up in some way. Can anyone advise a course of action here? Furthermore, I'm unable to select the Repair Disk button following the scan. Should I continue with the Leopard upgrade and worry about this later? Thanks.
~Macincrotch

This doesn't appear to be a serious issue, but, +no, you should not continue with the upgrade until your startup disk is error free+.
Get your 10.4 installation disc out, boot from it holding down the C key after the startup chime. When you reach the language screen, choose English, then, in the Installer window, do not click Continue, but instead, go to the Utilities menu in the menu bar and choose Disk Utility. In Disk Utility, highlight Macintosh HD (or whatever you have named your startup disk) and choose to Repair Disk from there.
If you see any messages which indicate that your file system was changed, run Repair Disk again until under the test results you see only a message in green saying that "The disk Macintosh HD appears to be OK."
At that point, quit Disk Utility, quit the Installer and reboot into your PB's startup disk.

I've used an external drive for time machine which has important files on it. After trying to back up my computer, it suddenly needed to be "repaired" by utilities. Now it's not being "seen" at all! How do I recover my important files off the drive?

I have always paid for apps with a credit card and now need to use an app store card but I can't get past the point where it keeps wanting my credit card updated. And can't used the app card number. Any advice???

I do NOT like using my credit card if I don't have to, and I went out of my way to go buy an Apple gift card, which I successfully redeemed into my Apple account. However, when I use the Apple "Cards" app, it will not let me use anything other than my credit card. I tried purchasing a card, hopefulling it would come out of my Apple store balance, but no such luck -- it came out of my credit card.
Apple is becoming more like Microsoft every day.
