Problem with permission - not even allowed to open Safari

Hi
I have a mbp mid 2010 with 8gb ram running Lion 10.7.4
I have recently experienced problems with permissions, and have tried fixing it.
The original problem was that I wasn't allowed to update the SW via the update tool. This problem arose approx. 4 weeks ago. Before then it wasn't a problem. I posted this problem on this forum, and got help by reseting the permission to default by pressen command +R during boot, and via the terminal to reset the permissions. This did the trick a very short while....
Now I have new problem - I'm not not even allowed to open Safari due to lack of permission. When having disc doctor to analyse the hard drive it shows a very very long list, with issues.
I have a time machine backup on my NAS, but I don't have permission to access it - can anybody help, please

No, can't say I have.
Could very well well be an image format issue, or a corrupted file. What platform is the source from (iOS, Android?). And what does "not being able to open" mean exactly?
You might also try a reset: Simultaneously hold down the Home and On buttons until the device shuts down. Ignore the off slider if it appears. Once shut down is complete, if it doesn't restart on it own, turn the device back on using the On button. In some cases it also helps to double click the Home button and close all apps from the tray before doing the reset.

Try:
- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
- Reset all settings
Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
- Restore from backup. See:
iOS: How to back up
- Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
If still problem, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

Firefox doesn't open, but is open in Processes in Task Manager, not even profile manager opens up for Firefox opens up. Please help

I'm using Vista, 32 bit - not even downloading the beta version of Firefox 4 helps; it downloads (just like the regular version of Firefox, 3.4) and I can install it, but trying to run it gives me nothing - no warning, no text; it just doesn't open up, but is still visible in my start menu, programs folder and in task manager. And not even profile manager opens up.

Make sure that you do not remove your personal data when you uninstall Firefox. Then you won't lose personal data stored in a different location in the [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_folder_-_Firefox Firefox Profile Folder].
See also http://kb.mozillazine.org/Profile_backup and [[Backing up your information]]
A possible cause is security software (firewall) that blocks Firefox. 
Remove all rules for Firefox from the permissions list in the firewall and let your firewall ask again for permission to get full unrestricted access to internet for Firefox.

Do a malware check with a few malware scan programs. 
You need to use all programs because each detects different malware.

Problem with Photoshop CS6. If I open a file using Camera RAW

I have a new problem with Photoshop CS6. If I open a file using Camera RAW, and process it as usual, CS6 doesn't want to save it the way it used to. I don't know if I changed something by accident or not.
Here's what happens now: After opening from ACR to CS6 and completinhg all of my work, I choose "Save as..." The save as window opens showing the file name and format. The default format seems to be .PSD. I use the drop down to select .jpg. The file saves normally as a .jpg. When I go to close the image from, I get a new prompt asking, "Save changes to Adobe Photoshop document DSC_xxxx.NEF before closing?
I looked up at the file name in the bar above the work space and noticed that it does NOT change from "DSC_xxxx.NEF" to "DSC_xxxx.jpg" after I have saved the file as a .jpg,in my webesite but it always used to do that. This adds a few extra steps when closing a document and it really slows me down.
In fact, I wouldn't swear to this, but I think it used to save to .jpg by default, without me specifying this.
I don't see a setting in the preferences for what to use as the default file format for saving, so I don't know where to change it back.
Any ideas?
Thanks in advance

You are in the wrong forum; You actually need Photoshop forum at this link:

HT5312 So I have a problem with iTunes not letting me download anything without first responding to some security questions which I don't remember setting up, how can fix it? Oh, and it won't let me reset the questions either!

If you mean that you aren't getting the reset link, then from the page that you posted from :
Note: The option to send an email to reset your security questions and answers will not be available if a rescue email address is not provided. You will need to contact iTunes Store support in order to do so.
You can contact iTunes Support in your country via this page : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5699
When they've been reset you can then use the steps half-way down the HT5312 page that you posted from to add a rescue email address for potential future use

Sounds like it's a problem with the Acrobat settings. Did you set them to the same resolution?

I purchased Adobe Creative Suite C2 and have been using it for years on the same computer no problem with using it. Recently upon opening Photoshop I received a pop up window saying due to Adobe Software security we need you to activate your CS2 software.

RFIDITVCL : problem with variation notes

Hi Experts,
I have implemented the sapnote 1639418 "RFIDITVCL: 3000 Euro Communication additional changes", but I have a problem with variation notes related to specific invoices in same year...the user guide in the note says that they are clubbed together and the total is compared with the limit...I think that the report doesn't function in this case (my case is higher 25000u20AC) and so my documents aren't in the list....
Do you have the same problem??
Thank you
Best regards
Angela

Dear Angela,
I have the same problem. The program looks at field BSEG-REBZG.
However this field is empty in our case.
We create our debit and credit memo's with reference to the original sales order.
Who knows a solution?

I'm having constant problems with pages not working. I.E.: I cannot fill in writeable fields, click on buttons... or anything... nothing on the page works. And, this is not exclusive to a particular site. I can, however, work well in Explorer.

For the last few weeks I have had constant problems with pages not working. I.E.: I cannot fill in writeable fields, click on buttons... or anything... nothing on the page works. And, this is not exclusive to a particular site. It does seem to be a browser issue, because I can work well in Explorer.

Both the Yahoo! Toolbar extension and the Babylon extension have been reported to cause an issue like that. Disable or uninstall those add-ons.

Problems with IE8 "not responding" on windows 7

I have a Toshiba Satellite L-355 that has been upgraded to run Windows 7 Home Premium from Windows Vista. I've been having problems with IE8 "not responding" and have tried running it without add-ons, system restore, and banging my head against the wall. All to no avail. Does anybody have any ideas how to fix this? I've tried running other browsers with the same problems.

Intel(R) HM55 Express Chipset LPC Interface Controller
Thanks, sav! That's perfect. (Good to know it shows up in Device Manager for people, too.)
Okay ... although it's the Intel P55 and PM55 chipsets which get all the press about cranky Touch/iPhone connections on Windows 7 systems (the 0xE0000065, -6999 and "Disk can not be read or written to" error messages are the most common, although symptoms can vary further than that), similar sorts of issues look like they could strike other Intel 5-series chipsets ... including your HM55.
So I'm proceeding precisely as I would with someone with a PM55 chipset.
*1) Dell updates*
Some folks with 5-series chipset trouble have got past it by way of BIOS updates. So I thinks it's worth your heading to your Downloads page at Dell, and checking to see if there's any newer versions of your BIOS lurking there. Unfortunately, with the Studio 15s I'm never precisely sure which is the correct downloads page ... so I'd try going to the following Dell page:
http://support.dell.com/support/downloads/index.aspx
... enter your service tag, and then drill through to your downloads page.
Any improvement with your syncing performance after applying any available BIOS updates at Dell?
*(2) Adjust power management setting on USB controllers*
If no joy after updating (if you were behind on your BIOS version), try applying the measures from the following document:
[iPod not recognized when connected to Windows laptop over USB|iPod not recognized when connected to Windows laptop over USB]
Reboot the PC after making the changes, and then try another sync. Any improvement?
(If either set of measures improves your sync performance, please post back to let us know which one helped for you.)

Anyone else haveing a problem with appointments not syncing, duplicate appointments when syncing with Outlook? Also, noticed that my primary SMTP disappeared, and I had to re-establish to send e-mail. Apple tech support was worthless.

Anyone else haveing a problem with appointments not syncing, duplicate appointments when syncing with Outlook? Noticed the problem a couple of days ago.
Also, noticed that my primary SMTP disappeared, and I had to re-establish to send e-mail.
Apple tech support was worthless on both issues.

Hi I am also in the UK, but not with Tiscali and am having the exact same problems. I can also send with wifi, but not 3G. I have tried amending all sorts of settings, including those above and amending the smtp server to the settings for my provider, but all to no avail.
It is thoroughly frustrating, as I cannot send emails unless I have wifi access.
Any further suggestions would be very welcome.
