I'm trying to install a cd application and I keep getting the message 'you do not have permission to use the application FSP OS X' Even after selecting always allow and entering my login details it still won't accept it. Help!!..

Please repost in the Final Cut Pro forum. Have you considered upgrading your machine, if you are still running Leopard your machine may be as old as 5 years old. While this should not matter you probably won't get the performance you want out of a demanding app like FCP.
Best of luck.

My problems started with an error 50 message when trying to download bought films. After un-installing and downloading iTunes, a number of times, I still cannot open iTunes on my PC and keep getting the message "you do not have permission to open"

I have removed all spyware, anti virus software and removed all iTunes programs - as suggested by Apple. I still cannot open iTunes on my PC because of the message "you do not have permission to open this file, folder"
I have changed and checked all permissions to allow this but still get the same message.
iTunes is located on my C drive and I now do not have the neccesary permissions to open it.

Hey Chris-
It has been some time since you posted this message and I see you haven't gotten any replies, but I have the same issue and I was wondering if you figured out how to resolve it. Hopefully you were able to figure it out.

I am trying to install itunes for my mobile, and I keep getting the message "You do not have administrator rights, please contact the system administrator to preform an update." I have it set as adminstrator as the user.

I am trying to install itunes for my mobile, and I keep getting the message "You do not have administrator rights, please contact the system administrator to preform an update." I have it set as adminstrator as the user. I am running Windows 7 Ultimate. Help please?

Thanks, but I've done that several times & it still says I need administraive privileges. I had itunes installed with no problems until I did the latest update. After that it just disappeared, so I tried reinstalling. Now I can't sync my phone. This is so frustrating!

I believe there is a technique which uses some similar suggestion to unwittingly tempt the user into installing malware, in order to be able to watch some (usually sexually explicit) video, so be aware of this ruse.
The only things I would download would be Perian that extends Quicktime, available here,
http://www.perian.org/
and if that did not do it, then try VLC to use instead of Quicktime.

How to resolve "You don't have permission to use the application" errors?

We've been struggling with managed preferences, specifically applications, for a few users. They have mobile home folders which live on a Mac OS X 10.6.x Snow Leopard Server AFP server, preferences which are managed (by group) on a Mac OS X 10.6.5 Snow Leopard Server Open Directory Master, and the clients are running Mac OS X 10.6.4 Snow Leopard (bound to the Open Directory Master). There are also two Mac OS X 10.6.4 Snow Leopard Server Open Directory Replicas. We always manage applications and DO NOT sign the apps when adding them in Workgroup Manager.
Essentially, key applications are unable to run due to the "You don't have permission to use the application" errors, even though they're explicitly whitelisted. (See some prior investigation over on Serverfault.) After seeing that the Mac OS X 10.6.5 Server update included the following fixes, we upgraded our Open Directory Master to 10.6.5:
* Addresses an issue that could prevent managed preferences from being applied when a user logs in on a workstation that has been idle.
* Fixes an issue that could prevent administrators from bypassing client management settings on a workstation.
This seemed to improve the situation slightly, our most important application now seems to be allowed. Occasionally, it'll give the same error, but a simple log out & back in allows it again. We have not upgraded the client workstations with the Mac OS X 10.6.5 update as it doesn't note any related fixes and we haven't fully qualified it for mass deployment.
We now have two applications that live in ~/Applications which are explicitly whitelisted (again, NOT signed), which fail with the same error, but logging out & back in does not resolve it. `sudo mcxrefresh -n 'user'` doesn't resolve the issue. In fact, `sudo /System/Library/CoreServices/ManagedClient.app/Contents/MacOS/ManagedClient -f -u `id -u 'username'`` fails with the following error:
ManagedClient- bad parameter to -u option: use format '-u 501'
Today I was able to catch the following in /var/log/system.log while attempting to run one said applications:
Dec 22 17:36:24 hostname parentalcontrolsd[43221]: -[ActivityTracker checkApp:csFlags:] [954:user] -- * Incoming app appears to be masquerading as white listed app and failed signature validation: /Users/user/Applications/FileMaker Pro 5.5/FileMaker Pro.app/Contents/MacOS/FileMaker Pro. Note: This may be a valid app of a different version than what was whitelisted (on a different volume?)
Dec 22 17:36:24 hostname [0x0-0xa42a42].com.filemaker.filemakerpro[43304]: launch of /Users/user/Applications/FileMaker Pro 5.5/FileMaker Pro.app/Contents/MacOS/FileMaker Pro was blocked
Dec 22 17:36:24 hostname com.apple.launchd.peruser.1340[6375] ([0x0-0xa42a42].com.filemaker.filemakerpro[43304]): Exited with exit code: 255
Dec 22 17:36:24 hostname parentalcontrolsd[43221]: -[ActivityTracker(Private) _removeAppFromWhiteList:] [1362:user] -- * Couldn't find local user record
So, even though the apps are listed in Workgroup Manager and are unsigned, and also appear in '/Library/Managed Preferences/user/com.apple.applicationaccess.new.plist', it appears that the client somehow thinks they don't match what's in the whitelist even thought WE DON'T SIGN THEM WHEN WE ADD THEM!
What might be causing this? Any further troubleshooting tips would be GREATLY appreciated!

According to the [Code Signing Guide|http://developer.apple.com/library/mac/#documentation/Security/Conceptual /CodeSigningGuide/Procedures/Procedures.html#//apple_ref/doc/uid/TP40005929-CH4- SW2], it appears that there is no way to remove signing (emphasis mine):
"You can take a partial-update approach to revising your code on the user’s system. To do so, sign the new version as usual, then calculate the differences between the new and the old signed versions, and transmit the differences. Because the differences include the new signature data, the result of installing the changes on the end-user's system will be the newly signed version. You cannot patch a signed application in the field. If you do so, the system will notice that the application has changed and will invalidate the signature, +and there is no way to re-validate or resign the application in the field.+"
Upon further investigation, the version of FileMaker 5.5 in question appears to be signed even after a fresh install from original install media. I wouldn't have thought Code Signing was around back then (2001). And the code signing appears to match between the fresh install (to a new location) and the original install. I'll attempt to sign it in WGM and install the same, signed copy everywhere.
Also, I looked at one of our other working primary applications (4D.app) and it is unsigned, but appears in the Firewall as "Allow incoming connections", so I don't believe that the Application Firewall is necessarily signing apps automatically (but I certainly won't be ruling it out).
I haven't checked yet, but the other application that's failing is "Parallels Desktop 6", which I'd bet is signed. I wonder if the "Automatically allow signed software to receive incoming connections", which is checked, would come into play at all?
Thanks for pointing out how to use `codesign` to check whether an application is signed or not, this seems to be the first real break on this case.

Installed 10.7 to my MacBook Air but get an error message "you do not have permission to save to macintosh HD" .

I downloaded and installed 10.7 to my MacBook Air with no issues, but now when I try to save documents to macintosh HD, I get an error message "you do not have permission to save to macintosh HD" I can save to home without issue, just not to theHD. I tried repairing permissions-no progress.
I cannot create new folders on the HD, either. In the macintosh HD permissions window:
Admin Read&write
Wheel Read
Three heads: Read
AppleCare on the phone says I have to re-install the OS using Recovery-this seems a bit over the top. Any ideas?

RESOLVED
OS 10.7 no longer allows admin users to save to the top directory-only the pre=determined four folders are allowed now.
By moving all content not in the four main top directory folders (System, Users, Library, Applications) to the directory)s) just below, all was resolved.
The guys at the Genius Bar were just as surprised as me-so we learn something every day, although Apple could let their Geniuses know..

You don't have permission to use the application "ksfetch"

When i finished install Google update software, It pop up "You don't have permission to use the application "ksfetch"" many times one day, I closed it, it pop up again.
The pop up said"You don't have permission to use the application"ksfetch", For more information,contact the person who set up account"
How can i fix it, does someone know? Thanks very much in advance.

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.

Hi, I have a macbook pro with a new hard drive installed. My WD external drive backup on time machine now wont let me access the files. I get a prompt saying 'you do not have permission to access the files'

hi, I have a macbook pro with a new hard drive installed and restored. My WD external drive backup on time machine now wont let me access the files. I get a prompt saying 'you do not have permission to access the files' After my new drive was installed I plugged in time machine and it started backing up. I paused it when I realised that it was running for more than a few minutes. I now realise that it probably started backing up the new hard drive all over again. Which makes me think that the original back up must be on the WD back I cant seem to access it. Any ideas would be helpful.

There's an issue currently that a lot of us are experiencing in that we all get the error message "iTunes is currently unavailable; please try later"
It's an issue with Apple and we're awaiting an update re this
I've posted a topic in regards to this after having a long conversation with Apple support this morning and will be receiving a call from their tech team tomorrow to run through it further
As it stands iTunes cannot be accessed via ATV's and nor can it be streamed via AirPlay from iTunes to the ATV
However I can access all films/iCloud content via my Mac Mini with no issues!

Any third-party software that doesn't install by drag-and-drop into the Applications folder, and uninstall by drag-and-drop to the Trash, is a system modification.
Whenever you remove system modifications, they must be removed completely, and the only way to do that is to use the uninstallation tool, if any, provided by the developers, or to follow their instructions. If the software has been incompletely removed, you may have to re-download or even reinstall it in order to finish the job.
Here are some general guidelines. Suppose you want to remove something called “BrickYourMac.” First, consult the product's Help menu, if there is one, for instructions. Finding none there, look on the developer's website, say www.brickyourmac.com. (That may not be the actual name of the site; if necessary, search the Web for the product name.) If you don’t find anything on the website or in your search, contact the developer. While you're waiting for a response, download BrickYourMac.dmg and open it. There may be an application in there such as “Uninstall BrickYourMac.” If not, open “BrickYourMac.pkg” and look for an Uninstall button.
You may have to log out or reboot in order to complete an uninstallation.
If you can’t remove software in any other way, you’ll have to erase your boot volume and perform a clean reinstallation of OS X. Never install any third-party software unless you're sure you know how to uninstall it; otherwise you may create problems that are very hard to solve.
Trying to remove complex system modifications by hunting for files by name often will not work and may make the problem worse. The same goes for "utilities" that purport to remove software.

Trying to restore my iPhone 4s from a previous backup and I keep getting a message that says "not enough room on the iPhone". Help!

I am trying to restore my iPhone 4s settings from a previous backup and now I'm getting a "not enough room on the iPhone" message. This is very frustrating. How can I fix this?

If the backup you're trying to restore from is encrypted, you will not be able to use that backup if you can't remember the encrypted backup passcode.
If on a Mac, & you elected to save the passcode to your Keychain, you can recover the passcode from your Keychain. Otherwise, your data is unrecoverable.
While you can continue to sync/backup, if you can't remember it & want to remove it, you'll have to delete your existing backups & restore the phone as a new device. Your data will be unrecoverable.
You delete your existing backups here: iTunes>Preferences>Devices.
