Gain Permissions when the sudo cmd doesn't work

This is what the permission says:
" d-wx-wx--- 3 Spitfir3x admin 102 15 Feb 16:13 /Library/Folder"
This is what happens when I use the sudo command in terminal:
"unknown-00-23-12-27-ef-32:~ Spitfir3x$ sudo chmod 775 /Library/Folder
Password:
chmod: Unable to change file mode on /Library/Folder: Operation not permitted"
I tried it the regular way to, and used disk utility to try to fix permissions, but nothing worked and I can't gain access to the file.
Help

Maybe there is an ACL on the directory.
so nothing came up when i typed that in. am i supposed to change one of those to the folder name? Or add something else?
Ok so i'm dumb and figured it out. This is what it shot back at me

  • What do I do when the rebuild function doesn't work on my email? It still saying I have 108 emails left on one of my accounts even though there are no emails being shown...

    I have Lion 10.7.5 and it says that I still have 108 emails on one of my accounts (Microsoft outlook live) even though there aren't any email being shown. And when I try to access my account on the Outlook Web App, there aren't any emails there either. I've tried the rebuild function and it doesn't do anything...what's my next move?

    Here, let me explain the way you use the word "crap" in a sentence like this, especially when I'm asking for help from a total stranger such as yourself. It's rude, obviously I know now not to do something like download something like that to my computer. It's not the difficult to figure out, and obviously I'm suffering the consequences for it now. So are you planning on helping me? Or should I not reply to your next reply if it has the word "crap" in it? I'm sure this whole discussion board was created to be used in a professional way, which is how I would like to keep my responses.

  • HT1212 What happens when the touch screen doesn't work?

    I have an iPod that was dropped in water sometime ago and we dryed it out immediately with rice.
    I had lost all hope for it for a while, but then I noticed that it was still working and had the same homescreen on it.
    I decided to try it again and when I plugged it into my computer it said something about reactivating it on the internet somehow.
    When I did plug it into the computer it said I needed to put in the 4-digit passcode, but the screen isn't working.
    I figured it was because of the water damage, but I just wanted to make sure I wasn't doing doing something wrong.

    Place the iOS device in Recovery Mode and then connect to your computer and restore via iTunes. The iPod will be erased.

    If recovery mode does not work try DFU mode.

    If you restore from iCloud backup the apps will be automatically downloaded. If you restore from iTunes backup the apps and music have to be in the iTunes library since synced media like apps and music are not included in the backup of the iOS device that iTunes makes.

  • TS1277 HI. I have followed all the appropriate steps above and when I try to enter my 'Password' when asked, my keyboard doesn't work. No key press can be activated at all when trying to enter my password in 'Terminal. And I am in the 'Administrator' user

    HI.
    I am having trouble authorising my Mac Air to my Itunes account. I found a discussion explaining how to go go into 'Terminal', then adding a command. I have followed all those appropriate steps and when I try to enter my 'Password' when asked, my keyboard doesn't work. No key press can be activated at all when trying to enter my password in 'Terminal. And I am in the 'Administrator' user. Can anybody offer any suggestions?? ta

    Does the command that you're trying to enter in Terminal begin with the word 'sudo'?
    If so, your keyboard is working fine. When you type your password after a sudo command, nothing is echoed to the screen for security reasons (not even the * that are normally registered in other user interfaces). However, the program is registering what you type.
    Just type your password and press 'return' and the command will be executed (so long as you type it correctly; if you don't, you'll get an error message).

  • A pop-up message is frozen on my settings page. I was trying to set up an apple id for iTunes when I got a message "required fields have been left blank. The missing information is highlighted in red." the ok button doesn't work. 1st gen iPad.

    A pop-up message is frozen on my settings page. I was trying to set up an apple id for iTunes when I got a message "required fields have been left blank. The missing information is highlighted in red." the ok button doesn't work. The message is now fixed & I cannot get rid of it. Ironically, when I found this forum I was able to set up an apple Id. Please advise how to get rid of the pop-up box. Thanks!

    I'm having this same problem as well and cannot advance--very irritating. All of the information is filled out correctly and I've editted my AppleID information online separately as well to get around this issue, but no luck...

Meanwhile, I'm down to 13 days till it stops working due to not being activated.

    This isn't an issue. Notice the screen prior to the one that shows usage has an iCloud section and a Manage Storage button. For this button to activate ios needs to download a few kb from icloud. Switching back to this screen forces ios to download those few kb.

    I would like to standardize both to just the one.
    One of the ID's doesn't work, when I tried to list this second email with the preferred one a message telling me that this email is already in use pops up.. yes it is, with me??
    Is there an easy to fix this please, Fabfitz

    If the email address you want to use is being used as the primary email address on a different ID you have to manage that ID and change it to a different primary email address.  This explains how: Change your Apple ID - Apple Support.
    If it is being used as an alternate or rescue address on a different ID, you manage the ID and either remove it or change it to a different email address.  This explains how: Manage your Apple ID primary, rescue, alternate, and notification email addresses - Apple Support.

  • I'm using OS 10.6.8 and Mail 4.5. When I receive mails with attachments which are visible the save button doesn't work. Some contacts have problems opening files sent by me using Mail too. This was never a problem on pre-Intel. A real Mac **** up !

    I'm using OS 10.6.8 and Mail 4.5. When I receive mails with attachments which are visible the save button doesn't work. And some contacts occasionally have problems opening files sent by me using Mail too. This was never a problem on pre-Intel Mac. A real Mac **** up ! Any ideas ?

    Can you drag and drop the attachments visible in the email to the Desktop OK or does that fail ?
    Re the sending: Are these recipients on Mac's or PC's as the file type could be an issue, if on Mac's then try setting the Mail Preferences Composing setting to Plain Text not Rich Text and see if that improves things.

    Hi Mr.Acevedo329!
    I have an article here for you that can help you troubleshoot the issues you are experiencing. That article can be found right here:
    iPod troubleshooting basics and service FAQ
    http://support.apple.com/kb/ts1382
    Specifically, you will want to take note of this section:
    The headphones don't work
    If your iPod's headphones don't work or have static or garbled audio, try connecting them to any other 3.5 mm stereo headphone jack, like the one on your computer. If the issue with the headphones persists, replace them. For an iPod under warranty, you can order a replacement online. Otherwise, check out the cool headphones at the Apple Online Store. If the issue appears to be with the iPod, try resetting it. If that doesn't work, then restore iPod with the latest iPod software using iTunes 7 or later.
    Thanks for using the Apple Support Communities. Have a good one!

  • My mini Ipad says I haven't backed it up to iCloud for 2 weeks.  Back ups happen when this ipad is plugged in, locks, and connected to wifi.  The ok button doesn't work, I can't open settings to make sure wifi is connected. Nothing works!!!

    The ok button doesn't work, I can't open settings to make sure wifi is connected. Nothing works!!!  I have it pluggled into my computer but apparently it isn't backing up since nothing has changed.  it is unuseable!

    Reset iPad
    Hold down the Sleep/Wake button and the Home button at the same time for at least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears

  • Why does the iPhone 4 need to send an SMS to activate FaceTime when the iPad 2 doesn't?

    Hi there.
    I keep wondering why iPhone 4 need to send a international SMS to activate FaceTime when the iPad 2 doesn't?
    It cost's 2,50 dkr ($0.48) every time it does that.
    I have a mobile subscription where i get 5 hours talk time, Free SMS, Free MMS, Free talk to all with same subscription and 5GB data for 129 dkr/month ($24.77).
    But the internation SMS is not free.
    And it really bugs me that my danish iPhone has to send an SMS to England to acticate FaceTime that i only can use on WiFi.
    I also have a iPad 2 (WiFi model), and it can activate FaceTime fine via WiFi. So why can't the iPhone 4 do that?
    I really really need a good explanation to why i have to pay to activate FaceTime.
    Why can't you make local numbers to send the SMS too, or do it via WiFi just like the iPad 2.
    The strangest this is that you have to be on WiFi to use FaceTime, so why use the mobile network to activate FaceTime?

    Where are you, what network are you on and where did you get your phone?
    The fact that it uses SMS isn't really the issue here and no-one on this forum can answer the "why" question. We are end users, not Apple. The accepted answer is if it's going to tie facetime to your phone number (which it does) then that's the way it's got to work.
    The puzzling part is why it would be sending one to England... unless of course, you purchased the phone in the UK and actually live in another region entirely.
