Error in repair disk
I bought this macbook only 2 month ago.
suddenly it started to run very very slow (start up take ages, opening any application even more.)
I have enhanced my memory to 2 giga so it's not a memory problem.
In the disc utility it said that i have an error in the disc and have to repair it.
in one of the forum i read that i should start up from a Mac OS X install disc to repair the disk.
but after doing exactly as explained i got an error message that the disc repair was failed.
I tried to download onyx and ran repair disc through there but it also advised me to run repair disc from the installation cd. (which i cant do because i get an error message)
the computer still run very very slow and i ran out of options.
does anyone know what should i do
any help will be appreciated
Hello dedor:
Welcome to Apple discussions.
Since you are under warranty, by all means contact Apple ( or take your computer in, as the previous poster suggested.
The error may be either hardware or software, but it should not be your problem to resolve.

W7: Error creating Repair disk or image "...the parameter is incorrect (0x80070057)
Initial cause of problem was trying to duplicate bootable SD card and it wrote it to C Drive system partition. Finally stumbled around and got system volume rebuilt and got it running again but Recovery partition got deleted in the process. I used W7 Recover/repair since Toshiba options seemed to be to overwrite everything (backup was month old, so wanted to avoid restoring since system files and data were still "there". I can use Toshiba program to make Repair, Recovery and Image copies. However, I cannot use W7 Backup program to make a Repair disk or Image backup. I get the error message: "System Repair disc could not be created The parameter is incorrect (0x80070057)"
I suspose the next thing to try would be to run System file checker since W7 sees a problem that the Toshiba utilities do not detect. Is there any "risk" of running the system file checker (sfc.exe), which also changes permissions on all system files.
I would like to correct any lurking system file problem, but also don't want to take a step backward trying to correct it. I have a W7 Windows disk.
Would appreciate suggestion.... leave alone and trust Toshiba image/recovery DVD I've made, try to correct it or leave well enough alone and hope it doesn't bite me later when I need to do a recovery. Thanks....Hi! I just got to add my 2 cents! Very nice replies and good information. Nice work Jerry and eagle!
Dokie!
Just one small problem the link has a down load manager. I'll let eagle explain that?? My advise is not to use a down load manager period! If you scroll down to the bottomof the page, you will be fine.

Errors during Repair Disk Permissions
I get the following error messages when trying to repair disk permissions in Leopard (see below).
Does anyone know why this is happening and what I can do to fix it?

"INVALID LEAF RECORD COUNT"
And repair disk does not seem to fix this. Any ideas what this mean and should I be worried?
ThanksYup and in fact it's entirely possible NDD made it worse than helped. That's one of the worst pieces of software for OSX every to hit the market, I've never seen anything so incompetent and useless.
That said, What I think you ought to do before running any further repairs, is at the very least copy your data files onto another drive or a DVD or what ever. Backup what you have regardless of what you think may or may not be corrupted. The last thing you need is any of these tools fixing the drive and ending up with unreadable sectors where your files sit, then you're looking pretty stuck.
Forget cloning and all that, just drag and drop files onto a CD-RW and burn them. You can figure out later which ones are busted, and if you drive does get fixed, then you can toss those.
At this point, I think you have an issue with the drive itself, I think it's more than just corrupted files. So I would seriously consider a replacement drive too. I have only seen a drive not fixable by Disk Utility or DW once, and after formatting it, I could not even install the software on it because of errors the drive was totally kaput.
How old is your drive/machine anyway? Over 3 years?

Ipod not recognized in itunes, error message: repair disk
When I connect my ipod to my mac I get an error message saying my mac cannot repair the disk, its asking me to back up the disk and reformat asap. My ipod is not being recognized in itunes but it is in the finder. help!
Thank you so much for trying to help. When I tried to do that, I got this error message when I tried to verify and repair the disk:
Error: Disk Utility can’t repair this disk. Back up as many of your files as possible, reformat the disk, and restore your backed-up files.
How do you go about doing that ^ as in reformating the disk (all of my music is backed up to a hardrive already) Or should I just try and erase the info on my ipod?
Thanks for your help!!!!

Invalid Node Error When Repairing Disk - Reinstalled & came back
Hi. Thank you for any help you might be able to give.
Last Friday, I had to shut down my macbook using the power button. It had been running slowly and I couldn't get applications to open. When it came back up, it flashed an "anti" sign. Eventually it started flashing a folder wtih a question mark on it. I booted from the disk and tried to repair it. It froze halfway and I had to restart. I repeated the process, but the disk utility could't repair it. Instead the disk utility told me that there was an invalid node and it couldn't repair it.
I erased the harddrive (the quickest way, not completely) and reinstalled mac os. The computer has been working really well for the past 3 days.
But the problem is back. I turned on my computer this morning to find the gray screen -.- It started flashing the folder with a question mark on it.
Do I need to replace the harddrive? Would that fix the problem? Or is there something else that is causing this problem?
Thank you for any advice.It certainly could be a problem with the drive, but it could also be a RAM problem (bad RAM can cause intermittent memory failure during disk writes causing the directory to become corrupted.) You can check the SMART status of the drive in Disk Utility. If the SMART status does not say "Verified" then the drive is failing. You can also run the Apple Hardware Test:
Insert the original OS X Installer Disc One that came with the computer. Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the "D" key until the diagnostic screen appears. Run the extended diagnostics repeatedly for at least an hour to be sure you pick up any intermittent problems. Note any error messages down for later reference. If there are errors you will need to report them to the Apple tech at your local Apple service center or to AppleCare.
I would also check your console and crash logs using the Console application in the Utilities folder. Check log entries, if any, around the moment that the computer crashed or locked up to see if there were any entries that may provide clues to the cause of the crash. -

Strange error when repairing disk permissions
At the end of the repaitr, it says "Warning: SUID file "System/Library/CoreServices/RemoteManagement/ARDAgent.app/Contents/MacOS/ARDAg ent" has been modified and will not be repaired."
What does this mean/what should I do about it?Hi Rob,
Repair Permissions usually reports all kinds of little tidbits of information that really are not important to users. Permissions on this file system corrected, nothing was done on this one for reasons like Niel gave. The only thing important is when it gets to the end and tells you you are good to go. the intermediate statements are more information than things you need to concern yourself with...of course you can use them just to learn more about the file systems and what they contain if that interests you

Need to Repair Disk Permissions Everyday? Same errors each time.
I have a White MacBook 4,1 - 2.1 Ghz 3 MB Cache, 800 MHz Bus. It seems like I need to repair the permissions everyday. Every time I do I get the exact same errors, when I start up off the Mac OS X dvd I get no errors under repair disk, but the same errors under repair permissions.

Permissions repair complete
Anyone know what's wrong?There is no error. You could repair permissions continuously and these same notifications will show up.
Recent updates to iPhoto, Front Row, and an update for RAW compatibility have resulted in these permissions differences. Rather than replacing the old permissions with a new one, the system sees a symbolic "link" (the L you see in front of the permissions).
Nothing is wrong with your machine--we're all getting these notifications. Hopefully a system update will change the permissions for us in the future.

I have been trying to use time machine on a new lacie 2tb usb 2 drive for back up. I continue to get: "unable to complete backup.An error occured while creating backup folder". When I use disk utility to repair I get another error message: unable to repair disk unmountable.
Help me Obie One Canobie you are my last hopeI have confused myself with the facts! Started out keeping track of every step and every variable but have sort of lost it as we progress here. First I quit all applications then swapped connections between mouse port and backup disk port to influence possible bad connections question. Changed power outlet receptacle for the backup disk. Disabled the put-the-HD-to-sleep option. Then powered down the computerator.
Next started up computerator. Turned Time Machine ON and experienced multiple successful backups! Then I started up a few applications, Mail and Text Edit (but not Safari so far). Had a few more successes. After each backup, I used Disk Utility to verify the backup disk is still OK. This because the error about unable to unmount the backup disk seems to go hand in hand with Disk Utility finding the backup disk to be bad.
Put computer to sleep for the night. Upon starting up in the morning, and before doing anything else, I did a backup disk verification... BAD! Did a restart and verified the backup disk... OK.
Did a few Sleep-bad, Restart -OK repetitions.
It seems consistent: Sleeping the computer apparently messes up the backup disk but doing a Restart "repairs" it.
=============================
Now then, I don't understand everything I know here. Methinks that maybe keeping the HD from sleeping during lulls in activity has allowed successful backups through the day but manually putting everything to sleep for the night causes a return to the problem of spinning-back-up-too-slowly (which was explained earlier). Is there any truth in this?
I may abandon this Seagate thing for something more compatible. What's out there that we know works reliably for us? -
After getting the dreaded gray/blue screen, I tried to run disk repair on the internal disk. I got an error message saying "Disk Utility can't repair this disk and restore your backed-up files. The volume Macintosh HD could not be verified completely." What do I do now? This is an iMac and I'm running 10.6.8.
Clean Install of Snow Leopard
Be sure to make a backup first because the following procedure will erase
the drive and everything on it. See below for how to clone a drive.
1. Boot the computer using the Snow Leopard Installer Disc or the Disc 1 that came
with your computer. Insert the disc into the optical drive and restart the computer.
After the chime press and hold down the "C" key. Release the key when you see
a small spinning gear appear below the dark gray Apple logo.
2. After the installer loads select your language and click on the Continue
button. When the menu bar appears select Disk Utility from the Utilities menu.
After DU loads select the hard drive entry from the left side list (mfgr.'s ID and drive
size.) Click on the Partition tab in the DU main window. Set the number of
partitions to one (1) from the Partitions drop down menu, click on Options button
and select GUID, click on OK, then set the format type to MacOS Extended
(Journaled, if supported), then click on the Apply button.
3. When the formatting has completed quit DU and return to the installer. Proceed
with the OS X installation and follow the directions included with the installer.
4. When the installation has completed your computer will Restart into the Setup
Assistant. Be sure you configure your initial admin account with the exact same
username and password that you used on your old drive. After you finish Setup
Assistant will complete the installation after which you will be running a fresh
install of OS X. You can now begin the update process by opening Software
Update and installing all recommended updates to bring your installation current.
Download and install Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update Combo v1.1.
You may be able to backup your data if you have an erased external drive you can use. Before you do the above but after you have opened Disk Utility you can try to clone your drive:
Clone using Restore Option of Disk Utility
1. Open Disk Utility.
2. Select the destination volume from the left side list.
3. Click on the Restore tab in the DU main window.
4. Select the destination volume from the left side list and drag
it to the Destination entry field.
5. Select the source volume from the left side list and drag it to
the Source entry field.
6. Double-check you got it right, then click on the Restore button.
Destination means the external backup drive. Source means the internal startup drive.
Now this will only work if the drive is accessible and can be cloned by Disk Utility. Otherwise, you would need to access your drive from another Mac that you can connect via Firewire - Target Disk Mode. -
i have a slow macbook, i ran live disk utilities (from hard drive), turned out I needed to repair disk from a installation disk. Did that, I got the volume (Hard drive) repaired from the installation disk disk. To this point, great!
When I reboot from hdd, then run disk utility, I get the same error message i did b4 repair. I went thru two rounds of this.....
Can anyone help? thanksSorry guys, I don't see how to reply to you so I use reply to "me" basically.
So the error I get is "volume header needs minor repair" and then you need to perform repair from the installation disk message.
I did repair not verify from the disk twice. Every time ending in the "the volume had ha been successfully repaired". Then I reboot from the internal disk. Run disk utilities from it, do verify and get the same error message I got before repair. I hope this can shed some light fr you guys. Sorry I didn't include details in the original

Boot your computer into Safe Mode usually by tapping the F8 key at boot. Select Safe Mode with Command Prompt.
From there type rstrui.exe and select a Restore Point prior to the time the problem started.
If unable, you will have to perform a Factory Restore.
