Permissions problem in hplip 2.7.9-1 [FIXED: FS#8240]

Apparently, there's a permissions-related problem in the hplip 2.7.9-1 package. As a non-root user, you'll get a "Unable to communicate with device" error when trying to access the printer via hp-toolbox. Consequently, as a non-root user, you can't also print (since you can't access the printer hardware).
Can anybody else confirm this?

  • 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.

  • Permissions problem with External Hard drive.

    Hi,
    I've been using my external hard drive for almost a year now and out of the blue last night I ran into a interesting problem. For some reason I couldn't transfer any files to a thumb drive and shortly after I realized I didn't have Read and write permissions for any files on my mac, and everything required my password to get to. I went into disk utility and repaired the permissions and the list went on forever. Upon completion of that nothing was resolved.
    SO! I popped in my Snow leopard disk and did a repair of the permissions and system through there hoping that would fix it. I than booted up the main drive and got stabbed in the face with a HUGE error message upon the apple loading screen with a "MISSING DRIVER" "KERNAL ERROR" "CORRUPT FILE" etc.
    I went back and did a restore from my external harddrive hoping that would work, and it did. I can access my time machine backups from my external harddrive but cannot do so through my own control.
    What should I do? Should I reformat my external harddrive? Which would suck because I'm a paranoid freak and if something would happen during the reformatting I will lose literally over a year of work that is crucial.

    What is that, a "clone?" What do you mean by "cannot do so through my own control."?

    Again, what's on that drive? Do you have a clone and TM backups on the same external? If so, are they in the same partition?

    This one says you need to repair or reformat the disk; that means your backups are corrupted.
    Try to do a +*Repair Disk+* (not permissions) on it.
    If there are errors that Disk Utility can't fix, or the +*Repair Disk+* option is grayed out (meaning OSX has already determined that it can't fix it), post back.

  • Disk Permissions Problem on External HD Accessed Wirelessly

    Hello,
    I recently purchased a LaCinema Connect MiniHD and have been using it with a Western Digital 750Gb drive (formatted Mac OS Case Sensitive, non-journaled). I also recently bought a D-Link DWA-125 wifi dongle to use with the LaCinema.
    I can access and read/write to the drive without problem when it connected via USB to my computer or to my wife's laptop. However, when I try to trasnfer to it wirelessly over the network (i.e. when the drive is connected to the LaCinema which, in turn, is on the network) I receive error messages when I attempt to transfer files to certain folders (including the "root" folder). What is interesting is that the folders that I can transfer to appear to be ones that were created on my old work computer, with an earlier OS version (definitely not Snow Leopard).
    I suspect that I have some sort of permissions problem, but "Repair Permissions" is not available to me for this drive in Disk Utility.
    I have plugged in the drive into my computer and have reset the permissions so that the "owner", "staff", and "everyone" are able to read and write for all folders and sub-folders, but it has not solved the problem.
    Any advice would be greatly appreciated.
    Thanks,
    Graeme.

    Eric,
    I, too, apologize for the delay in posting. I have been away from the discussions for a rather extended period.
    Well, any NTFS formatted volume will only be accessible to you as read only. No, this is not something new, but has always been the case. To make matters worse, I have heard that Windows no longer provides any way to create a FAT-32 volume; one must use OS X to format the volume or use a third-party application in Windows. This information may be incorrect, but I wouldn't be surprised if it is true (we're talking about Microsoft, here).
    If you can copy any data on this drive to some other location, then use Disk Utility to format it as FAT-32, the data can then be copied back and it can be used to transport the data cross-platform, with read/write access on both ends. Is this a possibility for you?

  • How do I fix a permissions problem that's emerged since I created a Snow Leopard partition on my Lion iMac?

    I recently partitioned my iMac, which was running Lion, so I could open old files created by apps like AppleWorks. I installed Snow Leopard in the new partition and the apps I moved there are running fine. But now when I'm using Lion and want to save or open a file, I'm frequently told I don't have permission to access or change the enclosing folder. I've tried using Disk Utilty and also manually resetting permissions on my Lion Home folder. All fixes seem temporary at best. I don't know why I'm having this problem or how to fix it.  I also don't know why there's a third (Recovery) partition I didn't create. Can I get rid of it?

    Changed the SL username/password combo to match the Lion one. Some problems were resolved but not others. Had to manually give myself Read/Write permission on the Lion partition's Home folder and its enclosures. This further restored functionality--e.g., allowing me to use Dropbox again--, but still left several "bugs." The most annoying have to do with Safari 5.1.1.  Whenever I open it now I get Apple's Support Downloads page, although my Safari Preferences are set for new pages to open with Homepage and Google as my homepage. Also, each time I open Safari, the toolbar initially loads icons for Readability (to which I'm a paid subscriber), but then I get a message saying Safari can't install the Readability extension. At this point, Readability's icons disappear and when I go to Safari's Preferences it no longer appears in my installed extensions list.  But if I close Safari and reopen, the whole routine is repeated.

  • 10.4.6 update permissions problems

    Anyone know how to solve the permissions problems from the 10.4.6 update. For some reason after doing the update we can read only from our servers and they have a little lock icon next to them!!
    after searching the net a bit i know other people are having the same problems but cannot find a cure,
    anyone know???? help help
    cheers

    Same problem here.... Luckily--and it was pure dumb luck on my part--I only updated two computers before catching this problem.
    I'm curious if you've found any resolution to the problem? If so, could you post it here? If not, I'll post anything I manage to find....

  • 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.

  • New SSD, but LOTS of Permissions Problems

    I have installed a new SSD drive alongside my 1.5TB spinning drive on my 24" 2009 iMac 2.93GHz. I used Carbon Copy Cloner to move my everything except my User account over to the new 60GB SSD.
    I originally assigned the User's folder on the old drive using the Users & Groups User/Advanaced Options window to change the Home directory, but that resulted in unrecoverable crashes and I had to reinstall the OS three times until I finally left my old files on the old drive and just ran my Applications on the new drive, keeping everything else on the old drive, but not connected as a "user".
    However I've run into a ton of permissions problems with every file I open and many programs that access thos files and have done this so far to fix it:
    Run resetpassword on both drives in terminal when I rebooted to the Mac OS X install disk (Lion).
    Run Drive Genius' repair permissions utility.
    Run Disk Utility's repair permissions.
    I continue to have issues with every file I use on the old drive, so I'm at a loss to fix this in place. I did read somewhere that moving your files to another drive, then reformatting then moving back can by default fix any permissions issues, so am considering this as a fix:
    Move files on the old 1.5TB drive, folder-by-folder to an external drive.
    Reformat the "old" internal 1.5TB.
    Recopy everything on that external back on to my 1.5TB drive.
    Run Repair permissions on both drives.
    This isn't fast or elegant, but I want the issue fixed. I don't want to have to open "info" on every file I use and check and change every file permission before I can use it!
    Any input on whether or not this is a real fix or is there a better one?
    Thanks!

    May not have anything to do with your issue but often
    the master disk image loaded on your hard disk before
    it leaves the factory has old (and/or odd) bits of
    code on it. Plus the transfer is done as fast as
    possible. Last they do not zero and erase the drive
    before putting the image on it, so if there are bad
    sectors they may not be marked as such and may be in
    use (& corrupted).
    As you are having trouble get your data off as best
    you can, erase AND ZERO the drive, repartition, and
    only then re-load from your Install DVD.
    Takes extra time but better safe than sorry...
    Well, I have no real means to do this now as I sold off my G5 already
    Also, how do you zero it?
    When I reformatted my G5, I picked the option to wipe and reinstall, yet when I did, the drive name and bluetooth names were still my old ones! - Not encouraging.
    In any case, its clear I have a software problem, so looks like I'll need to burn a zillion dvds and start over .
    Thanks.

    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.
    Thanks

  • I can't sync my macbook air with my ipad, problems with authorization... this keeps cropping up: "The required file was not found or has a permissions error. Correct this permissions problem and try again, or deauthorize this computer if the permi"

    "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.

    how do I find the file and replace it or install it?

    I'll reload it tonight when I get home...basically, I bought a new iPhone and downloaded some new medical apps. also had to download an update for iTunes into my mac laptop so I could access iCloud (which was NOT on my prior iTunes software)
    When I synched my new iPhone with the newly downloaded iTunes, I registered my iphone and tried to "back it up" to iCloud and the message indicating that "the required file was not found or has a permissions error...." popped up.
    How do I correct the permissions error, or...am I able to do this somewhere? Or...how do I find the file that is missing?
