Disc Permissions doesn't repait itunes app

I keep getting "Permissions differ on “Applications/iTunes.app/Contents/Frameworks/iPodUpdater.framework/iPodUpdater” ; should be lrwxr-xr-x ; they are -rwxr-xr-x ."
But after running disc repair, it says it was repaired but then shows up right after in another "repair disc permissions."
ANyone know how to fix it?

Hi Neil,
Thanks. I am only 50% sure what yoru answer meant. What is the "package structure" and "first character of the block differs." I.e. Are you saying not to worry about this? Or shoud I try to repair from boot recovery?

Permissions differ on Applications/iTunes.app/Contents/Resources...

Hello,
When I use Disk Utility to verify Disk Permissions on Macintosh HD, I get about 1,500 lines displayed like
Permissions differ on “Applications/iTunes.app/Contents/Resources/Dutch.lproj/AACEncoderConfig.nib”; should be drwxr-xr-x ; they are -rwxr-xr-x .
A few others are similar - only regarding Safari instead of iTunes.
Why is it so?
What does this mean?
Repairing Disk Permissions doesn't help.
What can I do to get rid of these messages?
Many thanks!
BTW Would this be the same under Mavericks?

Hi,
It's normal.
The reported errors are less in the latest versions of the OS but some do keeping showing up.
In Leopard the list of "regulars" is particularly long.
Debate has continued for some time as the value of Repairing Permissions and whether to do it "Live" from the Boot volume of from the Utilities in a CMD + R reboot.
For me, in Mavericks, a Safari item and a Installed printer item continue to show up.

HT203172 Permissions differ on "Applications/iTunes.app/Contents/Frameworks/iPodUpdater.framework/iPodUpdater" ; should be lrwxr-xr-x ; they are -rwxr-xr-x .

Why does disk utility keeps identifying the same permission errors, even after repairing them 5 minutes before?

Ignore it. It just means Apple hasn't updated the Permissions database to reflect the new location of that file. It's not an error. You can see that the Permissions for all 3 postions (read, write, execute) are identical in both, rwxr-xr-x, and the l before the first one is a symlink indicating the file is in a different location. (The - in front of the second set just means it's a folder, a directory. The - inside, not before, indicates that write Permissions for that position are not enabled for that group.
You can keep repairing that until the cows come home and it will never change. It's not an error.
Btw, Permissions repair is pretty much a huge waste of time. It's not something to be done for general maintenance, but only when actually necessary.

Repairing permissions doesn't!

I used Disk Utility to repair permissions in an attempt to fix some annoying problems. It came up with a list of 31 permissions repaired.
I decided to repair again, and the same list appeared! Intrigued I repeated the repair 4 times and each time Disk Utility found it necessary to repair what it said had been repaired in the previous attempt.
Could someone tell me what is happening? Am worried that this may signify a serious problem.
Many thanks,
Graham Falvey

Yes, Lyssa - thank you. Here it is; numbering it was my addition.

Fixing Permissions (iTunes.app) in OS 10.8.5 Update - HELP FIX?

I recently updated from OS 10.8.4 to OS 10.8.5 .... and although the update went fine, I have seen an issue with the "Apple Disc Utility" that raises concerns for me.
Everytime I have run the "permissions" repair, I have seen a "TON" of repair lines for the "Applications > iTunes.app > Contents . Resources > files.
The list must have been a hundred lines or more ...
(Actually were too many to screen grab, so here are a few I see):
Any idea why these "iTunes" permissions keep poping up to be fixed .... and then once fixed or repaired, just keep popping up again to need "permissions" repair again in the "Apple Disc Utility"?
Also, the first repair "permissions line I see is always:
> Warning: SUID file "System/Library/CoreServices/RemoteManagement/ARDAgent.app/Contents/MacOS/ARDAg ent" has been modified abd WILL NOT BE REPAIRED
Any idea as to what this is refering too as well.
I never had any problem repairing "permissions" before this OS 10.8.5 update .... and certainly not to the enormous length that the "permissions" repair liting shows. It's a huge list of over 100 iTunes permissions that need "permissions" repaired.
Any help will be appreciated ....

This is what I keep running into when trying to delete (or install new) the iTunes app from/to my HD Applications folder:
I have been having Apple "permission" repair issues with the newer OS10.8.5 update, and want to re-install my previous iTunes version (v11.0.4 or 11.0.5). When I try to remove the existing 11.1.4 version (that has the permission repair issues), I am not allowed to simply place the 11.1.4 app in the trash and delete, as I get the following pop-up window:
When I also try to launch the iTunes 11.0.5 installer package, I then get this:
How do I get around these issues and delete my iTunes 11.1.4, so I can then install the previous iTunes 11.0.4 or 11.0.5.

Why when I download an App from iTunes, this app doesn't appear in App section of my iDevice?

Help please!!!!!!!
I don't understand why!!!
I think it's iTunes 10.5.2.11 because with the previous versions this problem didn't happen
Problem Example:
~ Connect the iDevice
~ Open iTunes and click on the iDevice name
~ Go on App section
What do you see is your iDevice, with all your apps that looks like your iDevice
After downloading an App from iTunes store, this app doesn't appear on the image of my iDevice (on iTunes - App section)!!
This app appears only after i click Synchronize, and if i don't want install the app just downloaded I must abort the synchronization and then remove the app that I don't want to install!!
Sorry for my english!!

Newly downloaded apps will appear in the column on the left. The images on the right show what is installed on the device. Perphaps the logic has changed slightly with older builds also including what would be synced as well. Untick the box that says Automatically sync new apps and you can choose whether or not to include a new app instead of syncing, then removing.

I purchased an app and it doesn't appear in my iTunes app list. How do I get it to appear?

I purchased an app and it doesn't appear in my iTunes app list when synced. Where can I find it? How do I get it available for my other iphone and my ipad?

Audiobooks are currently a one-time only download from the store, so if you download it again then you will be charged - I believe that they are all supplied to Apple by audible.com, so I assume that it's them that are requiring the one-time only download.
Is it still on the device that you downloaded it on (if it was on your iPhone then it should be in the Music app), or do you have a copy on your computer and/or on a backup ? If not then you can try contacting iTunes support and see if they will grant you a re-download : http://www.apple.com/support/itunes/contact/ - click on Contact iTunes Store Support on the right-hand side of the page

Since yesterday all my usual .xls files will not open (Office for Mac 2011). Can open .xlxs files. Default 'open with' is Microsoft Excel.app. No software updates done. Have repaired disc permissions. What next?

Since yesterday all my usual .xls files will not open (Office for Mac 2011). CAN open .xlxs files. Default 'open with' is Microsoft Excel.app. No software updates done yesterday or the day before (or maybe a Silverlight or an Acrobat one by accident?). Have repaired disc permissions. HHD name is still same as it always was. What next? Thanks
PS I'm not a great techie so assume I don't know what you're talking about!

You may need to rebuild permissions on your user account. To do this,boot to your Recovery partition (holding down the Command and R keys while booting) and open Terminal from the Utilities menu. In Terminal, type: ‘resetpassword’ (without the ’s), hit return, and select the admin user. You are not going to reset your password. Click on the icon for your Macs hard drive at the top. From the drop down below it select the user account which is having issues. At the bottom of the window, you'll see an area labeled Restore Home Directory Permissions and ACLs. Click the reset button there. The process takes a few minutes. When complete, restart.

ATV doesn't show iTunes playlists and doesn't play them using the Remote app

Hello
Using ATV3 with the latest software version and it is connected to the iTunes library (also latest version) on my Mac Mini.
When I go to Computers on the ATV I can see the content of the iTunes and am able to play both Music and Vidoes however I don't see the playlists on iTunes there. On the ATV configuration it is configured to Show playlists -> All but still no Playlists appearing at the top of my movie and TV show listings section.
When I connect to the ATV using the Remote app on the iPhone and go to Computers there I do see the playlists but unable to play the ones with Vidoes just music.
Any ideas what would cause these problems...?

log into my library through more > computers where? on the Remote? This is exactly what i'm doing, I can see the content of my library there but I can't play movies from there.

Repair Disc Permissions must run before I can open apps

Hi- I've been having a recurring problem over the last week: that an application suddenly won't open. After I've been to Disc Utility and run Repair Disc Permissions, it opens again....... and then perhaps a few hours later I have exactly the same problem and go through the same procedure !
Something must be wrong .................... but what ?
I've been surfing and looked at various apps for System Maintenenance and then found an extensive article in this forum which explained that normally, no extra maintenance is necessary.
So now I'm confused. And help to clarify matters would be much appreciated !
SeaDream

Wow- that was interesting reading ! Yes- I've been using Mozy for about a year, and a couple of days ago, noticed that the icon had disapeared. As I installed SuperDuper last week, I'll unclick it !
Thanks for the tip, Kay.

Reinstall Lion, Mountain Lion, or Mavericks without erasing drive
Boot to the Recovery HD:
Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND and R keys until the menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
Repair
When the recovery menu appears select Disk Utility. After DU loads select your hard drive entry (mfgr.'s ID and drive size) from the the left side list. In the DU status area you will see an entry for the S.M.A.R.T. status of the hard drive. If it does not say "Verified" then the hard drive is failing or failed. (SMART status is not reported on external Firewire or USB drives.) If the drive is "Verified" then select your OS X volume from the list on the left (sub-entry below the drive entry,) click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If DU reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported then click on the Repair Permissions button. When the process is completed, then quit DU and return to the main menu. Select Restart from the Apple menu.
