Late sleep on MacBook Air, it must be the very long list of history in repair permission that how many times I repair it, when it's done, I do it again, suddenly it's a long list again, all about iTunes. So what's wrong with this iTunes 11.10.

Question

I predict something is going wrong because of the list history in verify permission disk. after I repair them for a few second , I do it again and also found that long list again..They are all about iTunes. So what's wrong with it. Thanks.

As long as the report ends up with 'Permissions repair complete' then, as far as permissions go, you are fine. You can ignore the various statements in the report:
Permissions you can ignore on 10.5 onwards:

Using 'should be -rw-r--r-- , they are lrw-r--r--' as an example, you will see the that the permissions are not changed, but the | indicates a different location. This is because an update to Leopard onwards changed the location of a number of system components.
Poster rccharles has provided this description of what it all means:
drwxrwxrwx
d = directory
r = read
w = write
x = executeable program
drwxrwxrwx
|  |  |
|  |   all other users not in first two types

|  group

owner
a little more info
Before the user had read & write. A member of the group had read.
After, only the user had read & write.
