Message in Repairing Permissions

Leopard 10.5.2, running Repair Permissions in Disk Utility. Got a message saying: "found ACL in library not expected" or something pretty close to that. Does anyone know what this might mean? I can't find anything in my Library that might give me a clue.
Thanks for any insight.

It's benign; ignore it.

Weird Message from Repairing Permissions

Had a new iMac for about a month.
For a lark I did a repair permsissions - mainly as a speed test.
I got a message that "CoreServices...as been changed. Unable to repair"
(Yes, "has" was mispelled)
Hovering over the line showed that the file in question was in Apple's Remote Desktop .App
I wouldn't necessarily care, but this screams security issue.
I have installed:
Rosetta
I partitioned with Boot Camp, but I have not used it yet.
The only non-Apple Apps are a driver for a USB sound interface
Adobe PhotoShop Elements
The older version (PPC)of Microsoft Office (2005?)
Quicken and Turbo Tax
Is this a common error?

Warning messages after repairing permissions

I hope that someone out there can tell me what these messages mean after running Disk Utility on my new MBP. Here is what it says:

It sounds like you used the 10.5.1 update using Software Update.
Download the larger 110MB file of 10.5.1 directly from Apple and this will most likely take care of all but one SUID warning.

The remaining warning is normal and will cause no problems.

Message after repairing permissions on MB wit Leopard

Warning: SUID file "System/Library/CoreServices/RemoteManagement/ARDAgent.app/Contents/MacOS/ARDAg ent" has been modified and will not be repaired.
This message came after I repaired permissions on MB with Leopard - any idea what it means and is it important or not - something to do with Remote Management which was selected at start up - can tis be deleted or removed and what is remote management anyway - I was not aware of it being in the Tiger OS version beofre I upgraded.
Thanks
RC

It's normal. Other people are getting it too. Just disregard it for now.

Odd Messages While Repairing Permissions

Had that annoying spinning beach ball today, so I used software update and then repaired permissions after. Never had a message like this before in all my mac years:
Warning: SUID file "System/Library/CoreServices/Finder.app/Contents/Resources/OwnerGroupTool" has been modified and will not be repaired.
Warning: SUID file "usr/bin/lppaswd" has been modified and will not be repaired.
No other permissions were repaired.
Um . . . HUH? I have two firewalls on this thing and have to approve even outgoing print jobs manually. I'd be surprised if I had anyone get n here, but anything is possible. I sync to mobileme and my iphone and ipod video. Have a wireless keyboard and mouse, but no other bluetooth devices. My wireless network is hidden and secured with a password. . .
I'm the only user, the computer is only a few weeks old.
Should I be worried? Should I be deleting something? Would love some thoughts and opinions!
Thanks in advance!
Sharon

A commonly known situation. See Mac OS X 10.5- Disk Utility's Repair Disk Permissions reports issues with SUID files.
No, you need not be worried.

Warning message when repairing permissions

I Just repaired permissions and the usual large list showed up. But this time I got a message that says:
"Warning: SUID file "System/Library/CoreService...ent" has been modified and will not be repaired.
I navigated to that site and could not find a SUID file. Does anyone know what that stands for and could this be a problem?
Thanks for any assistance.
Rich

Thanks Macjack,
I seemed to get that response after updating to 10.6.7 and my confusion is that when I go to Core Service Folder in the Library, I don't even see any SUID File at all? And this is the first time I have ever received a warning that a file has been modified and not repaired. Have you seen a warning like this before?

Obscure error message while repairing permissions

OSX 10.6.3. While repairing permissions, I spotted this strange message: Warning. SUID file "System/Library/CoreServices..." has been modified and will not be repaired."
Seems a little strange. I've done nothing exotic that would modify the system in such a way.
Anyone have an idea what's gone wrong?

Error message when Repair permissions

"System/Library/CoreServices/RemoteManagement/ARDAgent.app/Contents/MacOS/ARDAge nt" has been modified and will not be repaired."
This is the message I get when running Repair Permissions. What is it and how do I fix it. I thought the issues was with Office 2004 and removed that but it remains.

That error is a result of the Remote Desktop software update.
There are numerous threads in here about this already.

Warning Message when Repair Permissions

When I "Repair Permissions" I get the following warning: Warning: SUID file "System/Library/CoreServices/RemoteManagement/ARDAgent.app/Contents/MacOS/ARDAg ent" has been modified and will not be repaired.
Does anyone know what this means?

That means that a recent version of Apple Remote Desktop is installed. Ignore it and any of these other messages.

Message when repairing permissions

When I repair my permissions I get the following message: "ACL found but not expected on "Applications"." What exactly does that mean?

I read this earlier- http://www.red-sweater.com/blog/427/out-of-my-access-control
it may help explain what is going on.

Error message: There is a problem accessing one or more files in your iPhoto library. Do you want iPhoto to repair permissions for this library for you?

I have been using iPhoto for years. Today when I tried to upload pictures from camera, I received the above error message. I select "Repair", enter my password, and then a message "iPhoto was unable to repair permissions for the library" appears. I select "Quit" and it closes iPhoto. Quit is the only option. What has happened? I have tried to access the photos via other avenues such as uploading to gmail, and the photos load fine. I have about 28,000 photos.
I do not know what version of iPhoto I am using as I am unable to access the software. I have a iMac OS X (10.7.5). What should I do?

Select the iPhoto application in the Applications folder and type Command+i to bring up its Info Window. There will tell the version number. If it's iPhoto 9 or later apply the two fixes below in order as needed:
Fix #1
Launch iPhoto with the Command+Option keys held down and rebuild the library.
Since only one option can be run at a time start with Option #3, followed by #4 and then #1 as needed.
Fix #2
Using iPhoto Library Manager to Rebuild Your iPhoto Library
1 - download iPhoto Library Manager and launch.
2 - click on the Add Library button, navigate to your Home/Pictures folder and select your iPhoto Library folder.
3 - Now that the library is listed in the left hand pane of iPLM, click on your library and go to the File ➙ Rebuild Library menu option.
4 - In the next window name the new library and select the location you want it to be placed.
5 - Click on the Create button.
Note: This creates a new library based on the LIbraryData.xml file in the library and will recover Events, Albums, keywords, titles and comments. However, books, calendars, cards and slideshows will be lost. The original library will be left untouched for further attempts at fixing the problem or in case the rebuilt library is not satisfactory.

Mac won't update software or access iTunes shop. Message comes up with 'not connected to the net. Check connections' error. I still have internet access. Changed my Apple ID but no result. Repaired permissions and re-installed operating system.

It sounds like you may have multiple problems, but none of them are likely to be caused by malware.
First, the internet-related issues may be related to adware or a network compromise. I tend to lean more towards the latter, based on your description of the problem. See:
http://www.adwaremedic.com/kb/baddns.php
http://www.adwaremedic.com/kb/hackedrouter.php
If investigation shows that this is not a network-specific issue, then it's probably adware. See my Adware Removal Guide for help finding and removing it. Note that you mention AdBlock as if it should have prevented this, but it's important to understand that ad blockers do not protect you against adware in any way. Neither would any kind of anti-virus software, which often doesn't detect adware.
As for the other issues, it sounds like you've got some serious corruption. I would be inclined to say it sounds like a failing drive, except it sounds like you just got it replaced. How did you get all your files back after the new drive was installed?

Repairing Permissions and Got this Message????

Hi,
MacBook has been acting up lately. Just little things like stalling when opening aps and just plain iffy. Decided to repair permissions tonight and got these messages which looked unlike anything I'd seen in seven years of Mac ownership. Can anyone tell me if these are serious?

I am on the edge of a breakdown with Leopard. I went through the headaches as listed in a bunch of other threads with Permissions corruption... after doing all of the suggested Terminal tweaks and still having my machine not work, I finally had enough, erased the hard drive and clean installed 10.5. Ran the permissions check in disc utility and all was good. Upgraded to 10.5.1, noticed my machine was sluggish... ran permissions check again and got...

My Powerbook G4 1.67GHz is running poorly now. I have not done anything except install 10.5, then update (manually downloading the installer and running it) to 10.5.1.
I also tried to get onto iChat, as soon as I selected the video button, iChat blew up, the computer froze completely... probably was a kernel crash.
Hullllppp?
jc, I know you said these SUID warnings have been around for a long time, I am another who has never seen them before.
The question is... WHY are they here now? They are telling us that something is wrong that can't be fixed with Disc Utility.
Any suggestions?
Thanks a bunch in Advance.

Every time i repair permissions i keep getting this same message...

Perhaps i'm being paranoid, but every time i repair permissions i keep getting this same message that:
"Warning: SUID file "usr/libexec/load_hdi" has been modified and will not be repaired.

Does anyone know what this means? Is anyone else getting these messages consistently when running repair permissions? i did a clean installation of Leopard and have run the updater. Permissions seem to take a while to repair, and i am going to install the larger 10.5.1. updater as soon as it finishes downloading... but i did run the 40 mb updater that software update downloaded.
Any insight would be helpful. Thanks in advance.

This is the only trouble if at all that I have in installing Leopard, and while some as discussed previously are nothing to be concerned about the others have me concerned. From the installation disk I have run Disk repair and Repair Permissions but nothing changes in the list below. So any thoughts on how to clear some out?
