Why am I getting this error on first aid trying to repair my permission's.
Warning:

Welcome to the Apple Support Communities
Try holding the Shift key while your Mac is starting to start into safe mode. Then, after starting in safe mode, open Finder, select Go menu (on the menu bar) > Go to Folder, and type /Library/StartupItems. Then, empty this folder and restart the Mac.
If your Mac starts after doing this, it was a problem with a third-party app that starts automatically when you turn on the computer. It won't start automatically anymore after doing that

The opperating system I am using is 10.7.4, and updating to the latest version currently. Computer is running fine, except that when I did some utility repairs, I got the warning above, and not really sure what do, in regards to repairing it correctly, not just getting the message off of my computer.
Thank you for your help, and please only contribute if you know about this issue please.

That's a status message which can be safely ignored.

My MBP won't boot anymore after "repair disk" and "repair disk permission"

My 2011 MBP 15 with Lion stopped working after I attempted to use Disk Utility to "repair disk" and "repair disk permission".
It was having weird issues before I attempted the repairs, it was freezing every few seconds no matter what I am doing, the whole thing would freeze with only the mouse movable. then after a few seconds it goes back to normal again. This happened after I downloaded and installed some updates from Apple. I don't know if the updates would cause this or it's something else.
In Disk Utility, "Repair Disk Permission" took 5 hours. While "Repair Disk" resulted in "Disk utility can't repair this disk. Back up as many of your files as possible, reformat the disk, and restore your backed up files".
Now when it boots, there's a loading bar under the Apple logo, it loads half way and shuts down itself.
I can still get into CMD+R Utilities though.
Any idea how I can extract the data out of the disk? I'm going to format and do a clean install.

A stopped loading bar is indicative of a failed firmware install that didn't complete, it's trying to install and is failing.
Do a PRAM reset
https://support.apple.com/kb/HT1379
Reboot into Safe Mode, (shift key down) then reboot normally and see if that fixes the issue.
https://support.apple.com/kb/TS2570
You may have to try to reinstall your firmware manually, you'll need another disk burning Mac
Find your exact firmware(s) here (or on Apple Downloads page)
https://support.apple.com/kb/HT1237
Apply instructions here
https://support.apple.com/kb/HT2213
Lastly it could be your boot drive is failing or something wrong happened with the update and accounting for all the to the other issues.
A OS X "overwrite" may solve the issue, may not.
See 10.5, 106. 10.7 OS X "overwrite" here

Warning sign with Repair Disk Permission" Warning: SUID file..."

When I run Repair disk permission from Disk Utility I get these messages with warning. Why do I get them, and how do I fix them?
1. Warning: SUID file "System/Library/PrivateFrameworks/DesktopServicesPriv.framework/Versions/A/Reso urces/Locum" has been modified and will not be repaired.
2. Warning: SUID file "System/Library/CoreServices/RemoteManagement/ARDAgent.app/Contents/MacOS/ARDAg ent" has been modified and will not be repaired.

how do I fix them?
You don't - they are harmless.
Why do I get them
Apple has this to say about that:

You did the right thing by asking first - good luck with Snow Leopard.

Repair Disk Permission takes a long time

Whenever I repair disk permission in Disk Utility it takes about 20 minutes.
The log shows nothing besides the usual "secure.log". (that shows on all my macs.)
Repairing a second, third or fourth time always takes that long....
Any clues? Anyone else?

#2 referring to variation of time on a specific machine and when comparing DU's walltime between machines
Depends on
-computer's processor clock rate
-disk read data rate (the DU process reads a lot more than it writes)
-machine's memory speed
-machine's amount of physical memory (if small memory paging can occur)
-other system-level processes and user-level processes that are active and consuming resources
-number of files on the disk (each machine will more than likely have more or less)
-file system meta data fragmentation (varies from one machine to the next)
I've had maybe a score of people all using various Macs perform DU repair permissions on Leopard and their times vary from a low of 3 mins to around an hour. Go figure...
The Estimated time to complete in the progress bar is atrociously inaccurate.
On my PM G5 10.5.1 internal boot volume repair it takes consistently 8 mins and 43 secs of wall time. The progress bar shows when DU starts estimated time to complete is 1 min. It sits there while the DU's helper installdb process runs for maybe some 4 mins at 100% cpu use and a single thread. Then DU itself, DiskManagementTool and repair_packages (a big RAM hog) processes step in to also do work for the remainder of the time. These last three processes will also consume around 100% cpu together. The i/o is mainly reads all done at a fairly low data rate.

HT203172 After I did a "repair disk permission" on my Mac, do I clear history ?

I am having problems with my Mac running slow. I had a friend guide me to run a "repair disk permission". I did that but I am not sure if I am to click clear history. Also should I do anything else to help my Mac run better? Thank you

Clearing history and cache gets rid of stuff some software may have to sort through. That takes off some load but also means cached items are not available to speed that look up. Most think it helps to periodically clear out the history and cache.

Disk Utility can't "Verify Disk Permission" and "Repair Disk Permission"

I booted up the Leopard 10.5.5 server from the Install Disc, and tried to do disk checks on all drives using Disk Utility.
When the system drive was selected all the "Verify Disk", "Repair Disk", "Verify Disk Permission" and "Repair Disk Permission" functions are able to perform, however, if the non-system drives are selected only "Verify Disk" and "Repair Disk" are able to perform, the "Verify Disk Permission" and "Repair Disk Permission" are GRAYED OUT ! and UNABLE TO perform the permission check and repair!! Any idea ?

Hi, I'm having a problem could be related. I've a 3 years old Xserve (not intel) with 3 HD managed by the apple original RAID board, all that running Mac OS X 10.4.
I remotely manage the server from my mac running OS 10.5.6 and Server Admin 10.5.3.
Well, I simply cannot propagate permissions because when I do it, Server Admin freezes and i must force it to quit. Obviously, privileges are not propagated.
All that di NOT happen 1 month ago when i was "happily" running Mac OS X 10.3.x and Server Admin 10.3.x. Upgrading has been a big boomerang.
Any idea? Thanks

10.3.9 upgrade causes Repair Disk Permission problem...

I just upgraded my OS from 10.3.5 to 10.3.9
Before I upgraded, I quit all applications and I repaired my Disk Permissions.
I then installed the OS 10.3.9 combined upgrade from my Software Update and after it was finished, I restarted. All went well and then as I always do, I repaired my Disk Permissions again. I was surprised to see that it actually had to repair several permissions. Okay, so I immediately repaired my permissions AGAIN - and I was surprised again to see that it repaired the same permissions it supposedly repaired just 5 minutes earlier. I repeated the permission repair 5 times and the same thing happened every time.
This isn't normal - what's going on?
Every time I Repair Disk Permissions, it repairs the following permissions:
We are using special permissions for the file or directory ./Library/ColorSync/Profiles/Displays. New permissions are 16893
We are using special permissions for the file or directory ./Library/ColorSync/Profiles. New permissions are 16893
We are using special permissions for the file or directory ./System/Library/Filesystems/cd9660.fs/cd9660.util. New permissions are 33261
We are using a special uid for the file or directory ./private/var/at/jobs. New uid is 1
We are using a special uid for the file or directory ./private/var/at/spool. New uid is 1

Repair Disk Permission Question

I am coming up with the following error when I run the disk utility - Repair Disk Permissions for Macintosh HD:
Warning: SUIF File "System/Library/CoreServices/RemoteManagement/ARDAgent.app/Contents/MacOS/ARDag ent" has been modified and will not be repaired.
What does this error mean, and how can this be corrected?

Although OT I do not agree with shldr2thewheel. Permission repair is much more useful than Apple's declare. Especially every OS update, cache cleaning and permission repairing is a good way to avoid many little problems can arise.
Cheers
Simon

Repair Disk Permission Error Message

I routinely run Disk Permission Repair through the DU as part of maintaining my Mac (I can't help it - I was once a Windows user :)). Today when I ran this on my primary drive, I received this error:
Warning: SUID file "usr/bin/quota" has been modified and will not be repaired
I checked previous posts and this ISN'T listed as one of the disk repair messages I could safely ignore.
Any ideas as to how to fix this and how serious an error this is?
Thanks.

http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1448 indicates most but not all warnings (not errors). Ignore it.

Repair disk permission have deleted forlders on my external hard. What can I do to retrive data ?

I've ran a "disk permission repair" on my external hard drive and some folders have disapeared! Help!

Hello! Thanks for your response. So I've simply repaired permission on a WD 1TB external HD (it's formatted NTFS). Didn'nt format the drive or delete anything on it. I did this on my brand new imac 27. I did this for all my drives without any problem. Somehow, on this disk, some folders have disapeared. These are my memories, my personnal digital pictures from 2003-2009. Anything after 2010 is fine. When I check the volume, I see there is only 60gb left on the 1tb. Somehow, when I try to copy the whole content or what I see, i see that only 560gb is being transferred/copied on the other HD. In short, it seem like the files are till there but I can't see them. I've tried on another mac and even on a pc. Nothing. They must be somewhere ?!? Any idea ? I've tried some "undelete" software btu they can't find anything but always the same 12 pictures...

Repair Disk Permission problem

I recently read that repairing Disk Permissions can be good every now and again, and so I did it (still don't know what it actually does) using Onyx. Anyway, since then, TM hasn't been working - keeps coming up with the message 'The backup disk image could not be mounted'. How can I fix it?
Thanks!

Go to this topic - http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=8227625 - where you will find discussion of this error and possible solutions. In most cases the only solution that definitely works is to erase the backup drive and start over.

Repair disk permission

Hey everyone, since i have installed leopard, every time i run a repair disk permissions i get all these errors. In the beginning there were a couple but now there are really a lot. I read some similar topics here but i couldn't a solution. These errors means something isn't working right or i should -as i've read in some posts-ignore them, they don't mean anything.
This drive is the seagate ST3250824AS P model.
I want to change my boot drive and get a faster one, like a velociraptor. But first i want to know if these errors are coming from this drive, and if i replace it it will go away. Thanks for reading.
