Gnomad2 and permissions problem

Hi!
When running gnomad2 as root, everything is ok. I can access and copy music to my device. But it doesn't work for user. There is an error: usb_set_configuration: Permission denied. I don't know what is the proper configuration after /etc/hotplug support has disappeared.
Please help

I've just created a bugreport with fix attached,

  • Ownership and permissions problem

    Hi all
    I've got a new iMac 27" running 10.6.4. Following my old Mac Pro's departure I have copied all my backed up work files and folders from an external drive to my documents folder (not via Migration Assistant / Time Machine backup - MA wouldn't recognise the drive!). I can open the files without problem, but I can't save them to the same file or folder. If I try to do so, I get a message saying the file is either read-only, I don't have permission, it may be open by another application, close everything - basically I can't. If I create a new folder with its own new files, I can save and re-save without a problem, its just my old/existing work files that I can't work on.
    I've just spent an hour and a half on the phone to Applecare who cannot resolve this. We tried fixing permissions from the Mac OSX startup disc, creating a new user account with admin capabilities, manually getting info on specific files and checking the permissions, unlocking and applying permissions to all enclosed files and folders so they have read and write capability, but nothing works. Applecare tell me to re-save the files with a new name in a new location. I have literally hundreds of thousands of files, this is not an attractive solution. So they suggested I try and find a 3rd party app that will batch-change ownership on these files.
    I've read a lot about people with permissions problems but none quite the same as mine. If the Apple OS (get info) and Disk Utility cannot change the permissions so I can work effectively, can another piece of software realistically do this?
    Any help would be much appreciated.

    Thanks for the reply baltwo. I did that, and this is what I got:

  • User groups and permissions problem

    Hello everyone,
    I've been running Arch Linux for about a month now and I have noticed a few things related to permissions associated with user groups that annoy me. My user is part of the storage, wheel and network groups, amongst others. I can see this when I run the `groups` command. From what I could read on the Wiki, the storage group should allow me to mount/umount drives such as my USB key and my iPod when they are plugged in and access the files from my user account without using sudo. The network group should let me manage the network connection via ifconfig, iwconfig, etc. once again without using sudo.
    However, when I run iwconfig as my normal user, I get incomplete and inaccurate information. I get about 2 lines telling me essentially that I am not associated with any Access Point, which I clearly am. When I run it with sudo, I get the full information, including my Access Point's ESSID. iwconfig does not get the same data when run with and without sudo. Same goes with ifconfig. Also, I can not run dhcpcd or wpa_supplicant at all as a normal user.
    I get a similar problem with the storage group. I can not mount or umount drives without sudo and I can not write to mounted drives that I've mounted with sudo. This is particularly annoying when I try to manage my iPod.
    Does anyone have a clue what could be causing this?
    Thanks a lot

    I have searched Google and the Arch Wiki, have tried a lot of the suggestions from the forums, such as the 'how I beat policykit and hal' forum post.  Nothing seems to let me mount my drives.  I can see them in Nautilus, I click them but they don't mount.  I can do it as root.  It's really frustrating because I can't figure it out.  I haven't filed a bug report because I thought it was a problem that I was having.
    I haven't tried the iwconfig or network yet.
    This is pretty much the only thing holding me back from everything working.

  • Time Machine and Permissions Problem?

    I recently bought another iBook as I ran my old one into the ground. Using Migration Assistant I had Time Machine restore my old files. The back up was on an external MyBook drive. All went well until I tried to drag-and-drop files to the external drive. The computer gave me the message that the drive could not be modified. It then gave me the option to authenticate which I did and then the files were written. This happens every time. Will anyone please tell me what I'm doing wrong?
    Thanks
    o

    Niel
    This solved most of my problems. One lingering is the constant refusal of Stuffit to expand items on to the external drive, saying it's write-protected. I have saved to the drive from Safari and Speed Download so I know that isn't true. Only when I used Stuffit does this happen. This didn't occur on my old Mac; only when I used the Migration Assistant combined with Time Machine. I'm going to delete Stuffit's .plist and see if this helps.

  • Ownership and permissions of Mac users don´t match windows

    Hi
    I have ownership and permissions problem on Windows. Hopefully anyone can help.
    I created a user and gave the user permissions
    1- NOT ALLOW TO SAVE FILES ON THE DESKTOP -->READ ONLY
    The ownership and permissions only work on Mac OS machine. and DON´T WORK ON Microsoft Windows machines.
    Anyone can tell me what I have to do and stop the problem.
    Thank you
    Regards
    Tri

    The Desktop folders on Mac and Windows machines are in different locations, so you will need to change permissions in both locations for this to work.
    For Mac, the Desktop is ~/Desktop, for Windows it is located in the User Profile, under the Desktop folder.

  • My iMac 8.1 was slowing down and had permissions problems. I backed everything up, and then re-installed. Now all I get is a black screen. Power+D gives me a hardware error message: HDD-1336. Help!

    My iMac 8.1 (10.6.8 ) was slowing down and had recurrent permissions problems, mostly with Java. I backed everything up, and then re-installed from time machine. Now all I get is a black screen which says I need to reboot. Power+D gives me a hardware error message: 4 MOT/1/40000003: HDD-1336 or HDD-1327. When I reboot from the OSX CD and start disc utilities everything checks out OK. When I reload 10.5.2 from the OSX CD everything seems to work OK and no more permissions problems. But then I loose all my email and safari stuff. Anyone have any ideas short of going back to my old PC?

    No unfortunatley it's too old, you are referring to Target Display Mode which became avialble in 2009, your 2008 needs to have the HD replaced. I'd still do that if everything else is OK or you can simply buy a new MM and display or even a new iMac  or an Apple refurbished iMac to save money.

  • I am trying to authorize my computer and I get an error message: The required directory was not found or has a permissions error. Correct this permissions problem and try again, or deauthorize this computer if the permissions cannot be changed. Help?

    I am trying to authorize my computer and I get an error message: The required directory was not found or has a permissions error. Correct this permissions problem and try again, or deauthorize this computer if the permissions cannot be changed. Help?

    I used Terminal to change the permissions on the folder in question.  I followed the instructions in this article:
    iTunes: Missing folder or incorrect permissions may prevent authorization
    In my case, the folder was there, so I needed the command to change permissions on the folder, not to create one.   I was hesitant to use Terminal b/c I know that if I made an error I could wipe out my hard drive or render my computer unusable.  So to be SURE I didn't make an error, I carefully copied the command from that page and *pasted* it into Terminal.  Also, before I could do anything in Terminal, I had to go change my admin password (it had been a blank password before and that's not acceptable for making changes in Terminal).  I was just super careful when entering my password or doing anything else while Terminal was open (making sure I didn't accidently hit the spacebar or another key, etc.)  And it fixed the problem right away.
    What was confusing for me was that the iTunes error message said to change permissions in the FINDER, which is what I was trying to do.  It didn't mention Terminal.  What would really be helpful is if Apple included a link to a page like this in their error message.

  • Unable to download from AppStore, updates,etc.Messages 'the installer is damaged' to 'there might be a problem with file ownership and permissions.' I am the owner and only user of a new MBP. What could be going on?

    Is anyone having the same type of problems I'm having with Lion. I have a new MacBook Pro, received 7 weeks ago, preinstalled with Leopard 10.6.7. I didn't migrate anything from my old iMac, wanted a clean install from the Apple Store. While there, I asked for the upgrade to Lion 10.7, however their system was down.
    I  installed it myself, wirelessly about a week later, and Apple emailed me a receipt. Now, I've had to call support directly last week when I lost Mail, Address Book, was unable to open Preview or iTunes, among other problems. Seemed fixed after a session that baffled even the store tech.  Now I am unable to download or install the recent Mac updates for Lion, from the App Store, could not install Adobe Reader, etc. Messages range from 'A network error has occured - Check your Internet connection and try again' to 'The Installer is damaged and cannot open the package. There may be a problem with file ownership or permissions.'  All fail and I'll probably have to call Apple again. I am frustrated beyond words.  Logs 'Install's runner tool is not properly configured as a setuid tool', domain errors, 'attempt to write a readonly database, and on and on. I have barely done a thing on this computer except search online for help with these problems. Safari gives me a 'You are not connected to the internet' too often. Diagnostics disagrees. I do see wi-fi problems in the forum. Disk and permissions were fine at the beginning of the earlier problems, checked first by support tech. I'm not sure if support tech even knew. I was just happy they were fixed. Anyone have these download and/or install problems after a 'clean bill of health' so to speak, only a week ago?

  • Strange Problems With Display and Permissions Since 10.5.1 update.

    Since I've done the 10.5.1 update I have been having a strange problem with my desktop and dock displays. On my desktop I have these strange lines that appear any time I log in or open any application, the lines never go away and change locations on the screen once I open an application or move a window. My dock has the reflective shelf for about half of it, the rest is a dull grey. I've also had problems with verifying and repairing my permissions. I can never actually complete either permissions task. I've used some third party apps, they always fail as well. The only time I can actually repair my permissions is by booting in to single user mode and doing a fsck -f command. When I boot back in to Leopard and try to use the Disk Utility to repair, it continues to fail.
    I'm not sure if the video problem I am having stems from a permissions issue or possibly a corrupt video driver. Either way, I've done a lot research and haven't found anyone with the same problems I have been having so I thought I would give these forums a shot.
    I am using a PowerMac G4 Quicksilver with dual 800Mhz, 1.5gb RAM, and a GeForce4 Ti 4600 128mb video card.
    Here is a screen shot of the line and dock problem.

  • HT2963 How can I fix permissions problems now that I have changed permission on my HD and have error code -8076, locked disk or ....?

    iMac v10.7.4. Error message says disk is locked. Permissions set for read/write admin (me). Can't open iTunes, Mail, photoshop, adobe bridge [you do not have permission!]. Fonts in Word are unexpected, not cambria. Used Disk utility to repair permissions (ran it twice, once before reinstalling photoshop from DVD; once today). Situation worsening.

    Permissions problems occurred after I downloaded Lion update on 6092012. I believe the  problem originates with  Lion (see the 19 pages of posted problems in the community). I have now talked with Apple Support rep and an Apple Genius. Have reinstalled Lion from the HD Recovery disk. I see some improvement but also at least one  new problem: TimeMachine apparently has lost all backups, don't know how or why. Will have to take machine to a mac specialist or wait for Mountain Lion to arrive. Lion is a bad cat.

    Can you explain a bit more about what you are trying to do or what you were trying to open? You need to add a lot more details.

    "The required file was not found or has a permissions error. Correct this permissions problem and try again, or deauthorize this computer if the permissions cannot be changed."
    Not sure how we can correct his permissions problem, and whether authorising or deautorizing makes any difference, with more and more errors keep popping up, this got to be such after an update of the OS, can remember which!?
    HELP!!!

    follow this:
    Launch iTunes
    select iTunes Store from the menu on the left side.
    sign in via the link on the top right area if you haven't done so already
    click the link where you Apple ID email appears, enter your Apple ID password, click View Account, this will take you to a page displaying detailed information about your Apple ID account.
    The last item under Apple ID summary should be Computer Authorisations, click Deauthorize All
    now reauthorize any computers as needed when the system prompts you.
    good luck.
