Disk error - How do I fix this?

I was running Onyx, and while verifying the HDD, it told me I had an error on the startup disk and needed to run Disk Utility off of the CD to fix it. I ran the utility while in OSX (not the CD) and it says this:
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.
Checking volume information.
Volume Header needs minor repair
The volume Macintosh HD needs to be repaired.
Error: The underlying task reported failure on exit
1 HFS volume checked
Volume needs repair
I do not want to mess anything up. I have heard the Disk Utility on the CD/DvD is either old or has problems. SO i just need to know for sure how to fix this.
Thanks for the help!

As long as it is a MacBook Pro labelled DVD analyzing a MacBook Pro, Disk Utility should be fine as far as analyzing basic directory structure issues with the Repair Disk and Verify Disk functions. I say basic, because Alsoft Disk Warrior when it repairs the disk directory is much more thorough in its efforts to construct a brand new directory to replace one which is damaged than Disk Utility or fsck. Regardless of the method used, directory damage can have the same symptoms as a dying hard drive. Even a modern MacBook Pro is not immune from its drive dying quickly. And since repairing the directory is a much more invasive routine than pure data recovery, I only recommend fixing the directory on a machine that has been backed up, or you have at least attempted a data recovery with Prosoft Data Rescue.

My iPod won't sync music due to a disk error, how do I fix this?

I just got a new iPod 4G and it won't sync any of my music or apps. I really don't need anything else on my iPod so I have everything else unchecked. I have tried a system restore and to reset all settings but nothing works. I also have tried deleting the Photo cache folder and that didn't help either. I am going on a trip in less then a week and I would really like my iPod to be working for that trip. Please help!! Thank you in advance.

I just got off the phone with senior level support at apple. There are two things she had me do to fix this problem.
1. Uninstall itunes and then re-install version 10.7 from the apple website here: http://www.apple.com/itunes/
2. Then go here: http://support.apple.com/kb/dl837, this will take you to the Quick-time version 7.7.3 for Windows page, download & install this version. You will need to reboot after this install and once you have finished you should have no problems opening Itunes.

No Disk Error - How do I resolve this...

Every now and then while using itunes or connecting my ipod I get a box popping up saying:
header; iTunes.exe - No disk
There is no disk in the drive. Please insert a disk into drive \Device\Harddisk\DR5.
I try and click cancel or continue and sometimes it resolves itself. How can I get this msg to go away permanently???
I'm not much of a computer guy so hopefully you can spell it out for me!
Thanks!

I suggest that you reinstall the Microsoft Visual Studio 2010 redistributable https://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=5555
If you are on a 64-bit system you should also install the x64 version http://www.microsoft.com/en-us/download/details.aspx?id=13523

HT203176 My start up disk (10.6.8 ver) has errors and I do not have the OSX install disk. How can I fix this and repair the disk?

Start up disk needs repaired. Repair Disk button is not available in disk utility and I do not have the OS install disk as recommended to fix. Any suggestions?

You have two choices, either get a replacement install DVD for your Mac ( best choice) or make another disk a system disk.
Option 1 call Apple and request a replacement install DVD for you Mac. They will charge you a nominal fee for shipping and handling. You really should have that because it is considered part of your Mac.
Option 2 This one depends on exactly what kind of errors you have on the disk.
If the data is recoverable, you can clone to the other drive.
If not, then you are in trouble and need the install DVD to install an operating system.

I'm suddenly getting the message "Your iPhone cannot be synced. The required disk cannot be found." What disk? How do I fix this?

I have an iPhone 4 and it's running iOS 5.0.1. I don't know what disk it's talking about, thus I have no way of searching for it.

Try to Reset your device. It might help and is very simple to do.
Press and hold both the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears (ignore the Slide to Power Off option that shows up first).

HResult error - how can I fix this

I am trying to import an audio file into an NVivo 10 software programme for qualitative analysis. I continue to get this message 'Failure to load the media file . Exception from HResult: 0xC00D0Feb
