Receiving error: "The operation couldn't be completed. Permission denied."

When I startup Final Cut Pro X under 10.7.2 on a Mac Pro I'm receiving the error "The operation couldn't be completed. Permission denied." Then after I press "OK," FCPX finishes loading. I've searched the Community but haven't found an answer to why this is happening or how to fix this. Does anyone know?
I also have Final Cut Studio loaded on this machine.
Thanks very much.

I've seen this, and I'm sure it was something simple.
Have you tried trashing your preferences?
Unexplained faults like this can often be fixed by clearing out FCP X's preferences (for some reason, they get knotted up from time to time).
Download Digital Rebellion's Preference Manager (free, simple to use, and perfectly safe, both to download and use).
With Preference Manager, you can backup the Prefs first, then if trashing makes no difference, you can restore all your settings.
If you trash them and don't restore them, you will need to manually restore all your FCP X settings again, so it's a great idea to backup Preferences from time to time when FCP X is working well, then if they get corrupted you can ditch the bad prefs and restore from your (Digital Rebellion) backup.
Can't guarantee it, but it's worth a try.

    Hi there!
    Yes, same problem too; I've already sent an email to apple support and just received a very vague and unpractical response with "call apple support in your country" as main advice. I've obviously emailed back stating that I need a clearer response and I don not have any intention to spend money calling for support when updates is a free tool. I do also believe this is a probem generated on Apple's end, I just wish they learned to say "sorry, it's us;  working on it!"

    are you certain that you’ve completely downloaded the .pkg file — that the download didn’t end prematurely?

  • Software Update App Store 10.8.2 Error - The operation couldn't be completed (NSURLErrorDomain error -1100.)

    When trying to run a software update in 10.8.2 from the App Store I recieve the error - The operation couldn't be completed (NSURLErrorDomain error -1100.)
    Any help would be appreciated.
    Thanks
    Anthony

    I found the answer by looking over towards the right on this page...to the More Like This section.
    The answer is that this indicates a server overload with Apple's App Store server.  Give it some time and try again.
    Here's the link where this was discussed:

  • I can no longer access Safari on my ipad. I get the error:the operation couldn't be completed. Cannot allocate memory. Help please!

    I am not able to access Safari on my ipad. I get the error message: The operation couldn't be completed. Cannot allocate memory. Can anyone help please??

    Try this first.
    Go to Settings>Safari>Clear History, Cookies and Data. Restart the iPad. Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
    If that doesn't work, reboot the iPad - or quit all apps and restart.
    Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.
    Quit all apps completely and restart the iPad. Go to the home screen first by tapping the home button. Double tap the home button and the task bar will appear with all of your recent/open apps displayed at the bottom. Tap and hold down on any app icon until it begins to wiggle. Tap the minus sign in the upper left corner of the app that you want to close. Tap the home button or anywhere above the task bar. Restart the iPad.

  • Aperture error - The operation couldn't be completed. (OSStatus error -1.)

    I'm getting an error quite frequently from Apeture. THe error looks like this - The operation couldn’t be completed. (OSStatus error -1.).
    Any idea what this error is, why this is happening and how to fix it ?

    Do you have Facebook enabled as an account in the "Web" preference tab in the Aperture preferences? This looks like a typical Facebook-problem to me, when Facebook cannot contact the server.
    If yes, and you do not need to sync to Facebook, disable "Automatically check for published albums".
    If yes, but you need to sync to Facebook, look in the Console window for additional diagnostics, that are appering at the same time as the error message, and check your network settings.
    If none of the above applies, post back with any additional information on what you are doing, when the error message pops up.

  • Error "The operation couldn't be completed. (com.apple.ImageCaptureCore error -9922.)"

    I have an HP officejet Pro 8500 printer that I always use to scan documents.
    Sometimes I get an error message and the scanner won't scn, but when I restart the printer it works fine again.
    Howerver, today as usual I was trying to scan some papers and I got the error message. I restarted the printer but there is still an error message when I try to scan. Then I started to get a message says "The operation couldn’t be completed. (com.apple.ImageCaptureCore error -9922.)"
    Any ideas what this is and how to resolve it ?

    Now I started to get this message

    Thanks. I was able to use Apple updates to get Snow Leopard up to date
    and have now installed LR4.
    However...... I purchased the LR4 upgrade and I have gotten to the part
    where it asked me for the serial number and I have input the new serial for
    LR4 upgrade, but I erased the serial in the next set of boxes down thinking
    they were asking for the name number duplicated in. However it wants my
    serial number from my LR2 which I cant seem to find.
    Is there a way to lookon my LR2 program and get the serial number?
    Or can I access it through myAdobe account somewhere on the Adobe website??
    Thanks,
