Nothing to worry about. As long as it reports "PermissionsRepair complete" you're good to go.

Why do I get the message "The item referred to by this shortcut cannot be accessed. You may not have the appropriate permissions." after having installed the updated version of Firefox, and the program won't start?

I have tried to install the updated version several times, and each time I get the same message. I have never experienced this kind of a problem with Mozilla before.
I have a Windows 7 system and a new computer, so I suppose it's not a computer bug.

Here is a pic.

Time machine full backup after disk and disk permissions repair

my macbook would not boot so i inserted the snow leopard DVD and did a disk repair and disk permissions repair, after that it booted perfectly but when it went to do a backup it did a full backup of 149GB , i am unsure why it has done this and would like to know how to stop it as i am trying to save space on my time capsule.
thank you in advance

I'm afraid you don't have much choice. You do have lot of space available, though.
Node requires deep traversal:/ reason:must scan subdirs|new event db|
No pre-backup thinning needed: 165.92 GB requested (including padding), 507.60 GB available
The "deep traversal" means TM compared everything on your system to the backups, and estimates that about 138 GB is new/changed (it adds 20% for workspace on the TM disk - the "padding" in the message).
If there's about 138 GB on your system, see #D3 in [Time Machine - Troubleshooting|http://web.me.com/pondini/Time_Machine/Troubleshooting.html] (or use the link in *User Tips* at the top of this forum), for some common reasons for TM to do a new full backup.
If there's more, #D4 there has some common reasons for large backups.
If all you did was repair disk and permissions, neither should have resulted.
the reason i did a permission repair and disk repair while running from the install disk was because my laptop would not boot from the internal disk so i did both just to be safe.
That's fine; just do the Permissions Repair again, while running normally.

Clean Install needs Disk Permissions Repaired?

I have just performed a clean install of ML 10.8.2 and performed a Disk Verify which reported back OK. Then I did a Verify Disk Permissions and it found several items that needed repair. I rebooted and ran it again but the same items came back. So I repaired the permissions.
I also had this same problem when I did a clean install of 10.8.1 and both times that was all that was on the disk.
Is this normal? Should I have to do a permissions repair after installing a new OS?

Should I have to do a permissions repair after installing a new OS?
No, and you don't have to. You never need to repair permissions unless you have an indication of a permission error involving system files, which you probably never will unless you do something very unusual. The warning messages are spurious.
Permission repair is an immensely popular, time-wasting ritual that is rarely, if ever, necessary. The one time you can be absolutely sure you don't need to do it is right after installing or reinstalling OS X.

IPhoto won't open after new install and restore of back-up

Hi guys
My hard drive just died (for the second time in 6 months!) so I have just gotten the computer back with a new drive. I did a new install of Tiger from my original install CDs, did the download thing to get all the updates, and ran a "restore" from my external drive using iBackup (http://www.grapefruit.ch/iBackup//index.html) to restore all my previous system settings, documents, etc. So far this seems to have worked well, a couple of 3rd party applications didn't re-install - specifically Neo Office and WiFind - but I was able to manually install those and everything seems to be working fine.
Except iPhoto. It won't open. When I click the dock icon it bounces once and does nothing. No little arrow under it or anything. Nothing at all happens when I click the icon in Finder (in the Applications folder). When I searched it in spotlight it told me there was a file called iphoto.crash.log, so I went and had a look at that hoping it would tell me the problem, but I don't understand it. I'm not particularly good at the behind the scenes stuff with computers.
Wondering what I should do now - if someone can perhaps interpret the log file and find the issue if that would help, or if I should uninstall and re-install iPhoto by itself (and if so, how?), or if there is something else that may be causing the issue. I noticed there are a few files relating to it when I search with spotlight but I don't know which of them might be relevant. I could post a screenshot if that is allowed, or post the log file if it would help?
Thanks in advance for any advice or help!
Regards,
Chloë

400 Updates???
Did you Repair Permissions before & after each one?
The usual reason why updates fail or mess things up, or things don't load/run, is if Permissions are not fixed before & after every update, with a reboot... you may get a partial update when the installer finds it doesn't have Permissions to change one obscure little part of the OS, leaving you with a mix of OS versions.
Some people get away without Repairing Permissions for years, some for only days.
If Permissions are wrong before applying an update, you could get mixed OS versions, if Directory is the slightest messed up, who knows!
If many Permission are repaired, or any Directory errors are found, you may need to re-apply some the latest/biggest updates again, or even do an A&I if you have enough free disk space.

The combo update for Intel-based Macs...
http://www.apple.com/support/downloads/macosx10411comboupdateintel.html
Repair Permissions before & after re-install, then reboot again each time.
If all the above do not resolve the problem, then it's time for an Archive & Install, which gives you a new OS, but can preserve all your files, pics, music, settings, etc., as long as you have plenty of free disk space...
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=107120
I only use Software Update to see what is needed, then get them for real via...
http://www.apple.com/support/downloads/
That way I can wait a week or so, check the forums for potential problems, and get Permissions & such in order before installing.

Permissions Repair Instantly done?

Quick question: I recently ran permissions verify/fix from my imac install disk (10.5, not 10.6), and the process was instant. Just wondering why that would occur, and if it's anything I should be concenerned about...?
A little background, just in case it's relevant.:
-I recently changed my sleep settings in the "energy saver"
-I once recently experienced a LONG startup/gray screen with a progress bar
-I reset my PRAM after that
and lastly: I am not currently experiencing any long startups and/or progress bars--everything is working super fast and normal.
I have a feeling I'm just over-thinking things, just wanted to make sure there's nothing to worry about!
Thanks!

I appreciate the input, I two notes:
1) I occasionally run permissions repair from the install disk ONLY WHEN I am already using it to check for any disk problems (which there were none of this time, thank goodness!) Otherwise, I do run it from the hard drive itself.
2) Every single time I have run a permissions fix from an install disk, it has run as expected, taking a few minutes and listing fixes, etc. This is the first and ONLY time I have witnessed an instant permissions fix while using a startup/install disk!
Now, that being said, I will now run permissions fix normally. My lingering question is:
Why, after repairing permissions occasionally from an install disk many times in the past, would this one single time be an "instant fix?" I guess this is more of a curiosity question rather than a critical issue.

10.6.8 rainbow wheel - strange startup following perm repair

I've been getting the rainbow wheel quite often on Safari and other apps. As if it stalls for a bit then resumes regualr functioning. Upon restart I get either a very delayed white screen before seeing the grey apple or I get the grey apple with the grey progress bar below it.
Booted from Snow Leopard OS disk and performed the password utility and reset all user and root ACL's. Perfomed disk utility's verify disk which came back okay. Performed permissions repair after finding unexpected ACL's and wrong permissions on private/var/root/library and users/shared.
Rebooted and noticed that "network" user was on the list of users and there was a lowecase "m" right under "OSX" at the top of the login window.

more info:
it is the host that is somehow changing to "m"
During one restart, I got the blinking folder with a question mark. Rebooted again, and was able to get into the system but only after a very long start up period.
What console log should I be looking at to detrimine what is going on here?

Permissions repair issue after installing SL

I ran verify/repair disk, permissions repair, etc prior to installation of SL 10.6 but when I run DU's Repair Permissions, I get the following:
Warning: SUID file "System/Library/CoreServices/RemoteManagement/ARDAgent.app/Contents/MacOS/ARDAg ent" has been modified and will not be repaired.
Is this something I can safely ignore?
Thank you for any consideration in this matter, I appreciate feedback.

After iOS7 install my iCal entries do not show "created by or edited by". Is there a fix?

After iOS7 install my iCal entries do not show "created by or edited by" also in Twitter I can't see number of retweets or favorites, it's become invisible. Any fixes?

Well seeing as I'm running Lion on 2 GB of RAM, I can't see how upgrading the RAM will make that much of a difference. If you are seeing launch times in minutes, it probably indicates your cache got corrupted by some third party cache cleaning software. To see if some corruption can be fixed, first backup your data:
https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-1992
Then boot in safe mode, holding the shift key. If issues persist in safe mode, run the hardware test that came with your Mac.
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=303081
And if that is unrevealing, and booting into safe mode doesn't solve anything, and you are backed up, try repairing the directory by:
1. Booting into the restore partition with command-R.
2. Selecting the installer's Utilities menu.
3. Selecting Disk Utility
4. Selecting First Aid
5. Selecting the boot partition.
6. Click on repair disk (not repair permissions)
Do NOT proceed with any install itself. Just quit the install program
If the disk is not able to be repaired, purchase Alsoft Disk Warrior, and boot of that to repair the directory.
If it is able to be repaired, and the machine is still slow, I think you may have run into some RAM that is bad, and need to replace it, not add to it.
If Disk Warrior can't repair the hard disk, replace the hard disk itself.

Permissions Repair Messages after Updating Java SE 6 to 1.6.0_22.

I've done permissions verifying, and repairs for years now. I'm also aware that many resulting messages can be safely ignored, but after the recent Java SE 6 to 1.6.0_22. update, there are two new messages. I hoping someone can offer some advice as to whether these can be ignored as well. My computer seems to be functioning fine. Thanks in advance for any thoughts.
The new permissions repair messages;

Today I have had some really strange things showing up on my iMAC when I went to Finder, for instance there were a couple of things there "Folders Actions Setup which I took a screenshot of which is way too big to post here and also had "mail attachment" which put the screenshot into a blank email!
Anyone have any ideas? I am now quite concerned.
Thank you.

PErmissions repair says done, but second repair shows same issues

After I repair permissions, a list of repaired files is shown and "Permissions repair complete". I decided to run it again immediately just on a lark. The same list of files appeared and the same "Permissions repair complete". I booted to the Leopard install DVD and ran permissions repair -- twice -- same issue. I know an Archive install will fix it, but any other suggestions? Use Pacifist to extract and replace the troubled files?

Disk Utility and repair permissions problem after upgrade 10.5.1

*Problem with Disk Utility* - +repair permissions don't work anymore+
After upgrading to OS X 10.5.1 tried to correct permissions with Disk utility. But I'm not able to repair permissions, because I get this message every time "fault: The underlying task reported a fault at concluding." and permissions repair stops. Has anyone else had this problem and does anyone have any idea how to get this working again?

Will try installing OS X 10.5.1 again from the downkoad that you recommended. Won't be able to do this untill after the New Year but I'll let you know if this helped. I had another problem after he 10.5.1 upgrade and that was that the Security update 2007-009 also refused to install. Could this be related too the problems with Disk utility and the permissions problems.

Disk permissions problem after installing Leopard

Hi!
I performed a Repair Permissions after installing Leopard. Firstly, I noticed that this procedure took a lot longer than before the upgrade. I also received the following error messages -

What does all this mean? How can I fix it?
Thanks.

You suggest I reinstall all of Leopard and then update to 10.5.1?
No. Download and install the standalone 10.51 updater without reinstalling the entire OS.
I found 2 Remote Desktop updates (Client and Admin) - version 3.2. Are these for Leopard?
Use the client version.
How will this help my problem?
Those are status messages. You don't have a problem.

Is there anything I should worry about?
No.
Should I repair the install with archive and install.
No, and you can't anyway. The Archive & Install option was removed in Mac OS X 10.6.
