Repair Disk Permissions - ACL found but...

Suddenly Repair Disk Permissions gives an exceptionally long list of "ACL found but not expected on xxxxxxxx" and apparently is unable to carry out repairs as each run of the "repair" brings up the same long list. Additionally, the reason I ignited the disk permissions repairs was that my PowerBook Pro suddenly appeared extremely slow - taking up to 3 hours to update a single application. I'd appreciate any feedback on correcting  this ongoing issue.
Thanks - Earl

Thanks so much for your advise, Linc, and sorry for the delay in getting back - things have ben pretty hectic since. I've now done as you suggested but rather than trying to find the log for the date the issue started (scrolling through what seems like miles and miles of lines of data) I've copied and am posting here a more recent section of the log taken while attempting to install an update to OS X 10.10.2 for the past 20 hours. Any help would be highly appreciated.

  • Repair Disk Permissions - ACL Errors

    I opened Disk Utility and repaired disk permissions last night and was surprised to find six errors. I ran it again, and the first three errors disappeared. But the other three remain even after I repaired disk permissions two more times.
    These are the errors:
    ACL found but not expected on "Applications/Utilities".
    ACL found but not expected on "Applications".
    ACL found but not expected on "Library".
    Does anyone know what they mean, and how I can fix them?
    Thanks.

    Hi, they were common before the update to 10.5.2, and than they went away for the most part. There is much information on them with a search. Google the ACL errors and you will see what I mean. I hesitate to offer a solution because there's so many conflicting statements.

  • Disk Permissions: ACL Found

    I ran "Repair Disk Permissions" with the following result:
    ACL found but not expected on "private/var/root".
    Repaired "private/var/root".
    ACL found but not expected on "private/var/root/Library".
    Repaired "private/var/root/Library".
    ACL found but not expected on "private/var/root/Library/Preferences".
    Repaired "private/var/root/Library/Preferences".
    I then ran Verify Disk Permissions with the following results:
    ACL found but not expected on "private/var/root".
    ACL found but not expected on "private/var/root/Library".
    ACL found but not expected on "private/var/root/Library/Preferences".
    Why are these ACL's show up after they have been repaired?

    Hello M:
    I think "ACL" refers to access control list which seems to be something used in wireless configurations (I have no wireless things in my network).
    Why are these ACL's show up after they have been repaired?
    I assume that this is the reason:
    found but not expected
    Unless you are having problems, I would completely ignore the messages. As an aside, running permission repair is, IMHO, a waste of time (although I admit I do it myself after software updates)

  • Repeating error message: "acl found but not expected" during permissions repair

    repeating error message: "acl found but not expected" during permissions repair
    My iMac is running slow. Processor running all the time. I was told to do permissions repair, so I did that. I get 100's and 100's of "ACL found but not expected" while doing a permissions repair in 'utilities'. It says 1 minute to complete but runs for a half hour. When it finally completes, I can restart the permissions repair again and it starts all over with same endless messages. Even though its says 'repaired', these ACL issues keep coming.
    SEE BELOW ... What's wrong? And How do I fix it?
    Kind thanks for your suggestions,

    repeating error message: "acl found but not expected" during permissions repair
    My iMac is running slow. Processor running all the time. I was told to do permissions repair, so I did that. I get 100's and 100's of "ACL found but not expected" while doing a permissions repair in 'utilities'. It says 1 minute to complete but runs for a half hour. When it finally completes, I can restart the permissions repair again and it starts all over with same endless messages. Even though its says 'repaired', these ACL issues keep coming.
    ACLs are just junk left over from previously installed OSXs. Just ignore. They have no impact.
    Describe your exact issue and computer specs and Linc may run you through a series of tests which may well help you find the problem to your issues. I agree, Permissions repair is rarely required.

  • Why am I finding this when I run disk utility? ACL found but not expected on "Library/Application Support/Apple/ParentalControls/Users"

    I am finding this when I run repair disk permissions in disk utility:
    ACL found but not expected on “Library/Application Support/Apple/ParentalControls/Users”
    Why is there an access control list on parental controls on my MacBook?  I don't use parental controls and I am the only user of this MacBook. I'm an old guy too, so it's not my Mom putting controls on the MacBook! ;-)
    Thanks!

    From the article I posted a hyperlink to in my 1st post (at bottom): You can also usually ignore any "ACL found but not expected..." message. These messages can occur if you change permissions on a file or directory; they are accurate, but generally not a cause for concern.

  • Repair disk permissions does not work

    Repair disk permissions does not work. Disk Uitliy fines many incorrect permissions (ACL found, but not expected) and says that it would repair it. However, when checked again, it finds the same permission errors.
    I have tried Disk Utility as well as the command line "sudo diskutil repairPermissions /" (which probably does exactly the same as Disk Utility).
    Any hints?
    C.

    Are you trying to Repair Permissions because you have file access problems in the System files, or just because you think you need to do it?
    If the former, please explain what you are seeing. If the latter, stop wasting your time.
    The things it doesn't repair are not repaired because there is nothing broken. The orginal Receipts files have the old settings, and subsequent updates have changed the permissions on those things to what they should be, now. It will report the differences it finds every time you run Repair Permissions because they will always be different and they should be the way they are.

    I don't know about that one. Browsing other discussions I see some have just dismissed it as being part of that group although it isn't specifically mentioned. In Leopard (a long-standing issue it seems), people applied updates and they all cleared. It looks like you're up to date now so that might not apply unless you reapplied the update.

  • Disk Utility & Repair Disk Permissions & Unknown User on External Seagate

    I have a new iMac running Leopard and don't do stupid things to my mac. I have a couple external Seagate Freeagent drives but 1 of them is giving me a little trouble. So I figure, I'll try to repair disk permissions on it but the problem is when I go into Disk Utility, the Repair Disk Permissions option is NOT available. It's there, I just can't select it; it's grayed out. Why? I'm an admin! The other externals have this option available but not this one, so I'm not really sure what to do. I've about 300gb of family movies on it that I'd rather not wipe out just to be able to do a disk permission repair.
    Whenever I do a command+i on the drive I do see an UNKNOWN user but this article, http://www.pcworld.com/article/145425-1/quickand_easy_folder_sharing_in105.html, leads me to believe that Apple hasn't done jack squat to allow us to fix the problem.
    Thoughts? Suggestions? Thanks in advance!

    I don't think that statement is true.
    I have 3 externals and can repair disk permission on all but 2. All my externals are for storage purposes and non have OSX installed, so that fact that I can repair disk permissions on them sort of contradicts what you say, however, the effectiveness of running a repair disk permission on a drive that doesn't have OSX may be nothing.
    I don't know how you manage to repair permissions on externals without system files on them but what I said is quite true. Repair permissions ONLY checks permissions of system files against the database of correct permissions. It wouldn't know what to do with any other files and never touches them. It should also not be possible on non OS X drives. I've never seen it enabled on any of my external or secondary drives. I really wonder why and how it was enabled on your external drives.
    I did have Tiger installed for 3 months before I got Leopard, but my externals have known nothing but Leopard.
    That doesn't matter. the ownership of files on your external were set in Tiger and it remains in leopard. that's what causes the "unknown" user to show up.
    The problem I'm having with one of the drives is that starting yesterday it's having difficulties mounting. Sometimes I restart the computer and the drive doesn't show. So in order to get it to show, I have to power down the external (which is and appears to be running) and then power it back up, and if that doesn't work, usually reseating the USB works.
    Then again... My problems started happening after I installed CandyBar and applied some folder changes. I have since dumped it.
    whatever problems you have with that external they have absolutely nothing to do with Candy bar. all candy bar does is change a few icon files on your main hard drive. that can have no effect on mountability of anything.
    This sounds to me like a hardware problem with your external. the drive could be failing. the USB bus could be failing either on the drive or on the computer. One thing you could do is check to see if there are any firmware upgrades for that drive. Look at the manufacturer's website. also try testing the drive with another computer if you can.
    On another note... Anyone use CandyBar and NOT have any problems or really like it? Maybe it was just a coincidence.
    yes, I use it and REALLY like it. no problems whatsoever.

  • Error "ACL found but not expected on..." when doing repair permissions.

    I am getting an error on Disk Utility, Repair permissions.   I was having some problems with permissions and sought and received help through forum regarding changing my userid password through Lion Repair (Control R, etc.)  After finishing that ordeal, rebooting, etc.   everything seems fine and works well, perhaps slightly slow.   I decided to go into Disk Utility again and I repeatedly get the following errors...
    "ACL found but not expected on “usr/sbin/system_profiler”
    Repaired “usr/sbin/system_profiler”
    ACL found but not expected on “usr/sbin/systemsetup”
    Repaired “usr/sbin/systemsetup”
    ACL found but not expected on “usr/sbin/traceroute”
    Repaired “usr/sbin/traceroute”
    After about a 20-25 minute repair process, I clear the report ,exit disk utility, reboot the computer and I still get the same report.  Disk verify shows the hard drive to be functioning well.   What is the source of these errors and is there a solution.
    Thanks,

    I had those too.
    I used ACLr8 just now. Didn't know if it would work for Lion or not. Ran Disk Utility again and it didn't show any problems at all... after having several of the ACL's... which bugged me, even though they are not supposed to mean anything. :-)

  • Please help with ACL "found but not expected," permissions, (and yes I've read /kb/TS1448)

    Hi, I am getting this report from Disk Utility when I repair permissions.
    They keep coming up even if I run repair permissions multiple times.

    And, yes I have read Apples Support Page,
    "Mac OS X: Disk Utility's Repair Disk Permissions messages that you can safely ignore,"
    at:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1448
    And, these particular ACL's are not listed on that page, as being ones that can be safely ignored.
    Can anyone tell me for certain if this is anything I should be worried about, (or not), and if it's a problem, what I can do about it?
    Thanks in advance!

    OK, I resorted to running ACLr8 1.3
    I had found a post about running some terminal commands first, and then restarting in recovery mode, and repairing acl's. It was bit complex.
    This app, ACLr8, runs it all in terminal, and without a reboot.
    Disk Utility immediately gave a clean report!
    ACLr8, had been updated for Lion, but hadn't been for ML.
    So although I had some trepidation about running it, my understanding is ML is more of an upgraded Lion than a new OS, so I felt safe taking the risk. 
    And it paid off!
    I suppose it didn't actually fix anything, but hey, out of sight, out of mind!
    And therefore, peace of mind.

  • Write permissions issues / lots of "ACL found but not expected" errors / hardware failure? on brand new Mac Mini (still within warranty). OSX Mavericks 10.9.1.

    I was hoping that I could receive some feedback from you fine folks here
    My situation:
    I bought a 2012 Mac Mini 2.6 Ghz Intel Core i7 from the online Apple store. It came with Mavericks 10.9.1 pre-installed and was delivered two days ago (I know, the mini update is evident but I needed the machine).
    I noticed that I had to enter my password every time I created, moved or deleted a folder. I did not think much of it.
    I did, however, think much of not being able to install files from certain developers. I received the "The installer is damaged" notification as shown in this topic: https://discussions.apple.com/thread/5541793
    This screenshot is someone elses, I tried to install audio software.
    Based on that error, I contacted the developer of the software. But then I noticed that I got the same error for other developers too.
    I tried the solution that the topic starter marked as solving his issue in https://discussions.apple.com/thread/5541793. It involves booting in OSX Recovery (command+R) and excecuting the 'resetpassword' command. That did not work for me. It also looks like my password data isn't stored as I do not see the 'obfuscated' password dots that the screenshot shows in that topic, even when I entered and saved it multiple times -- but I'm not sure if that is part of the main issue (which I'm gettting to).
    I also made sure gatekeeper allows applications to be installed from unidentified developers, as shown here: http://www.instantteamspeak.com/static/en/img/mac-gatekeeper-anywhere.png That didn't help either.
    Next I opened up Disk Utility and ran a check on write permissions. That got me worried.
    The check ran for a long time, spitting out "ACL found but not expected" errors.
    I proceeded to restore write permissions. That took 20-25 minutes.
    Once it finished I checked write permissions again. An equal amount of permissions needed to be restored! It's as if Mavericks didn't remember anything it did.
    The good news is that I could now install the files I previously couldn't, but the fact that I've restored write permissions three times now, and each time it seems as if nothing of that is remembered, has gotten me worried.
    I've made a video with some explanation here http://youtu.be/a0hKQvy-Km8 - my sincerest apologies for the shaky camera.
    I then checked the hard disk and the partition above it. The Macintosh HD gave me the green 'ok' light, but something weird happened when I checked the partition on the level above it. It will take ages to finish and I see Disk Utility doing some strange 'jumping around': http://youtu.be/hyLAEhLRnKc (warning - long video so you might want to skip through it.

    I was hoping that I could receive some feedback from you fine folks here
    My situation:
    I bought a 2012 Mac Mini 2.6 Ghz Intel Core i7 from the online Apple store. It came with Mavericks 10.9.1 pre-installed and was delivered two days ago (I know, the mini update is evident but I needed the machine).
    I noticed that I had to enter my password every time I created, moved or deleted a folder. I did not think much of it.
    I did, however, think much of not being able to install files from certain developers. I received the "The installer is damaged" notification as shown in this topic: https://discussions.apple.com/thread/5541793
    This screenshot is someone elses, I tried to install audio software.
    Based on that error, I contacted the developer of the software. But then I noticed that I got the same error for other developers too.
    I tried the solution that the topic starter marked as solving his issue in https://discussions.apple.com/thread/5541793. It involves booting in OSX Recovery (command+R) and excecuting the 'resetpassword' command. That did not work for me. It also looks like my password data isn't stored as I do not see the 'obfuscated' password dots that the screenshot shows in that topic, even when I entered and saved it multiple times -- but I'm not sure if that is part of the main issue (which I'm gettting to).
    I also made sure gatekeeper allows applications to be installed from unidentified developers, as shown here: http://www.instantteamspeak.com/static/en/img/mac-gatekeeper-anywhere.png That didn't help either.
    Next I opened up Disk Utility and ran a check on write permissions. That got me worried.
    The check ran for a long time, spitting out "ACL found but not expected" errors.
    I proceeded to restore write permissions. That took 20-25 minutes.
    Once it finished I checked write permissions again. An equal amount of permissions needed to be restored! It's as if Mavericks didn't remember anything it did.
    The good news is that I could now install the files I previously couldn't, but the fact that I've restored write permissions three times now, and each time it seems as if nothing of that is remembered, has gotten me worried.
    I've made a video with some explanation here http://youtu.be/a0hKQvy-Km8 - my sincerest apologies for the shaky camera.
    I then checked the hard disk and the partition above it. The Macintosh HD gave me the green 'ok' light, but something weird happened when I checked the partition on the level above it. It will take ages to finish and I see Disk Utility doing some strange 'jumping around': http://youtu.be/hyLAEhLRnKc (warning - long video so you might want to skip through it. The point is to demonstrate how long it takes).

  • Trying to install Lion. says this disk is not enabled (journaled) - but when I look at the drive it actually is os extended journaled - Stuck! Have tried repair disk permissions and still no luck

    trying to install Lion. says this disk is not enabled (journaled) - but when I look at the drive it actually is os extended journaled - Stuck! Have tried repair disk permissions and still no luck - any thoughts? Have spent two weeks trying to get apple support and itunes to help me get lion after a hard drive fail and now they are closed and I really just want to get moving!

    Are you installing OS X Lion over an existing installation of Snow Leopard, or are you reinstalling?
    First be sure you have everything on your system backed up. Then reboot with the Command-R keys held to get to the OS X Lion recovery volume. In here, select Disk Utility and use the First Aid tab in here to run a verification on your boot drive. If there are any errors, fix them and then try the installation again.
    The next step would be to format the drive, so with your backup secured, use Disk Utility's Erase tab to re-format the drive to Mac OS X Extended (journaled), and then quit Disk Utilty and attempt the installation again.

  • Trying to download a game purchase (Company App Store. Have taken advice from Aspyr Customer Service to repair Disk Permissions, but still download aborts...any suggestions?

    Trying to download game purchase (Company of Heroes) from App Store. Failed in mid-download several times. Aspyr Customer Services have shown me how to repair Disk Permissions, but still won't download... any suggestions, please?

    Thanks for suggestions. I did use Energy Saver settings, and I did check downloading another app. Last night I tried another download of Company of Heroes, got up to 4GB before bedtime, woke up this morning to find another "error has occurred" message. Extremely frustrating. Have used most of my monthly data allowance on abortive downloads. Maybe Apple made a mistake in relying on huge data downloads. DVDs more reliable!

  • Dick Permission--"ACL" found but not expected...

    Safari/internet access is great after I do a disk permission verify & repair. After a week or so it is back to the slow mode. WHAT is "ACL"? and why does it go back after I have repaired the disk permissions? Here is a typical line of the detail
    ACL found but not expected on "System/Library/User Template/English.lproj/Library/Keyboard Layouts".

    ACL is Access Control List and has to do with permissions, the notice you get doesn't have anything to do with Safari and can be safely ignored, it turns up on most people's permissions lists. Safari probably clogs up because the cache fills up. Go to Safari in the menu bar and select 'empty cache'. It also helps to quit and restart Safari often to stop it from hogging the CPU.
