Repair Disk Permisson from Adobe

I am trying to publish a .swf file from Adobe Flash CS3 and I get an error message that states "Be sure the destination file is not locked or on a locked drive." I called Adobe and they could not fix the problem. They also recommended that I call Apple but I wanted to try the support forums first. I have tried running the repair disk permission but that did not seem to work. Did I do something wrong? What else can I try? Please help! (I am new to Mac by the way.)

I am trying to publish the file in Flash CS3 (.swf) to my hard drive and then update the file in Adobe Dreamweaver CS3. From Dreamweaver I will update the file to the host server and then onto the internet. (The error message only comes up when I try to publish the file in Flash, before it gets to DW) I hope this answer's your question.

  • Repairing disk permissions from single user mode

    I accidentally changed the disk permissions on my Macintosh HD to "none" for everyone, except system and admin, who both still have read/write/exec privileges. Now, my Mac won't boot up. What can I do to fix this from single user mode or verbose mode?

    Hi,
    if you reboot your mac and press Command -R you can start in recovery mode and repair the permissions.

  • QUESTION: Running 'repair disk' from installation disks.........

    Hi
    I am trying to learn the basics of OS maintenance.........
    1 question.........
    A commonly described maintenance procedure is :
    ...Booting from the original O S disk that came with the computor and selecting disk utility off that disk, in order to run a 'repair disk' operation.
    My question is this: my original installation disk-set is O S X 10.3 . However i have updated to OS X 10.3.9 via the internet in several steps... Once an update to 10.3.?, then 10.3.8 and fianally 10.3.9.
    Can i still use the 'disk utility' 'repair disk' procedure from the original disk which is only 10.3 , if i have updated the OS to 10.9 via the internet ? If not, how do i do a 'repair disk' procedure from disk utility ?
    thanks for your time.....

    Judy,
    First of all, Welcome to the Discussions!
    re: "I repaired permissions using Install CD, I think it's the first version of Panther"
    Not to fret, but I would return to your HD>Applications>Utilities>DiskUtility and repair permissions from there. This should have updated permissions that will take care of the new permissions that need to be set for the update increments in the OS since your initial 10.3 install.
    As for the symptoms you are seeing, ie. no startup chime, black screen for seconds and hum I would return to the Disk Utility on the install disk #1 and run Repair Disk. Report back any errors it finds.
    Does your computer have a Apple Hardware Test CD? If so you may wish to run this to check for any damage it will report.
    As for Anacron, CacheOutX, PreferentialTreatment what features of these do you run? Clearing the Caches with CacheOutX for example should only be run for troubleshooting and not general maintenance of the OS.
    A very good FAQ by Dr. Smoke for maintenance can be found here.
    Hope that helps some,
    littleshoulders [:-)
    PS. Judy, in the future, if you find a need to post you may wish to start a new topic (even if your problem seems similar) as once a thread is marked answered by the original poster other users here may miss seeing your query for help. If you need help with figuring out how to do that let me know.

  • Using Disk Utility From Recovery Partition

    Is there an advantage to repairing permissions after booting into Recovery disk? (Hold Option key as restart) I realize that Repair disk will be available if needed & it is not available when using Disk Utility from Mac HD partition.

    Thanks!
    I thought that was the case but I had read multiple accounts of people with slow Macs after upgrading to Mavericks, running repair disk permissions from recovery disk to fix the problem.   I wondered why not just run repair permissions w/o restarting into recovery disk. Then they can also run verify disk, if they wish & only if there is a problem with the disk would they need to boot to recovery disk in order to run repair disk.

  • Yosemite won't install. Tells me to repair my hard drive, but repair disk button is greyed out!

    Ive been trying to install Yosemite for hours. It gets to the installation phase, where it says it will take 22 minutes. Nothing happens until finally there is a message that says: file system verify or repair failed and to quit the installer to restart. I've tried that a few times, but I get to the same point. I also tried to go to utilities where I tried to repair disk, but it's not available so I'm told to do verify disk first and from there I'm told to repair disk, but the button is greyed out and I have no more options and a computer that is stuck in limbo!

    Disconnect all peripherals from your computer. Boot from your install disc (Tiger?) & run _*Repair Disk*_ from the utility menu. To use the Install Mac OS X disc, insert the disc, and restart your computer while holding down the C key as it starts up.
    Select your language.
    Once on the desktop, select Utility in the menu bar.
    Select *Disk Utility.*
    Select the disk or volume in the list of disks and volumes, and then click *First Aid.*
    Click _*Repair Disk.*_
    Restart your computer when done.

  • Upgraded using Snow Leopard 10.6.3 & now running 10.6.8. How to repair Disk Permissions?

    Is it true that running Disk Permission Repair from the original 10.6.3 Snow Leopard disk will not properly repair my hard drive curently running 10.6.8? If it is true, how can I properly repair disk permissions in 10.6.8 if it's counter-productive to boot from the 10.6.3 disk? My MBP is a September 2006 model.
    Thanks, Thor

    If you mean repair permissions, run it from the Mac OS X 10.6.8 system without rebooting.
    If you mean repair disk, restart from the computer's original thumbdrive or Mac OS X install DVD, and if that doesn't work, with the Shift key held down to quietly run the repair utility.

  • 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.

  • Could Not Repair Disk

    I am on a Power Mac G5 running OS 10.4.10 and have the following problem: When running Repair Disk (run from the install CD), I get the following error:
    Invalid Leaf Record Count
    Should be 0 instead of 989
    1 Volume could not be repaired
    Repairing permissions works fine. I ran Disk Warrior and tried Repair Disk again, but go the same error.
    The computer seems to be working fine, but the 'error' code is a bit scary. AND I think it happened after a Software Update!!!!!!!
    Can anyone perhaps assist in fixing this? I'm thinking about reinstalling Tiger (or awaiting the new OS tomorrow), but I'm not sure that is wise or what needs to be done.
    Please help and thanks.

    Hi Sandie Cohen;
    Disk Utility is now powerful enough to repair an invalid leaf record count error. You need a more powerful tool like DiskWarrior to do that.

  • Repair Disk Permissions taking 19 hours so far...

    I semi-regularly use Onyx to repair disk permissions. (probably once a month). It normally takes around 30 minutes to complete. Yesterday my system started hanging so I ran repair disk from the boot cd. This was fine and took around fifteen minutes. Then I ran repair disk permissions from the boot CD. After around 30 minutes it said '1 minute remaining'. That was 19 hours ago....
    It's still chugging along so it sounds like somethings happening - but the progress bar and remaining time have not changed.
    So my question is - should I let it finish? How long should I wait? Is there anything else I could check?

    Update to the Update!
    I ran repair disk permissions from my profile and it finished (around 7 minutes). I've attached the log below in case it points to anything specific?

  • Cannot load CS5 related episodes from Adobe TV

    Adobe TV has great content and I would be really happy if - and only if - the streaming wouldn't be so bad. It hangs, especially the Audio is really bad. Watching Adobe TV in any browser sucks. Sn the forums I found, that the Adobe Media Player should help...
    Nope.
    The Adobe Media Player (newest available version - and newest available Version of Flash Player installed) does not show any CS5 related content. Even making the RSS feeds my favorites it would not load any episodes (changing the settings would not change the situtation)
    I tried any offered solution for downloading or viewing Adobe TV (with or without Adobe Media Player), nothing worked.
    Basic data about my configuration:
    Internet at least 9 Mbit/sec for download and 1 for upload
    Windows XP SP3

    The CS5.5 Project Opens, but MTS Files are Shown as Off Line. Also For Clarification, I have ALWAYS been able to open a project containing MTS files from a previous version of Premiere to the New Version, there is a warning that says it will be saved in the New version format. thats Fine. here are my steps because apparently i am not being as clear as i think i am:
    System Windows 7 x64
    1.) installed CS6 from Disks provided from Adobe
    2.) reboot
    3.) Open a CS5.5 Premier Project, the systm asks to Convert it to CS6, i say YEs
    4.) Unlike PREVIOUS versions, the MTS files in this former CS5.5 Now Saved as CS6 are shown as offline
    5.) If i Add a NEW Sequence to the Former CS6 Project that uses the AVCHD Preset, i can then Relink MTS files
    Without the New Sequence, the MTS files canot be imported nor can they be relinked, premiere pro CS6 complains that the file format is Unsupported
    i hope that explanatino is clearer

  • Repairing disk with disk utility question

    hello,
    I had a few questions regarding disk utility
    1. I have 2 user account on my computer, one admin, one regular
    2. run disk utility from regular account...tells me i need to repair disk
    3. run disk utility from admin account...tells me the disk is fine
    4. I want to run the repair disk function from my boot disk to be safe
    5. will it erase my data or corrupt any data at all...I do have backup, just want to be prepared for anything

    Hello! You can't repair the boot disk unless booted from the install cd/dvd. It sshould do just fine repairing the hd while booted from the cd/dvd but it's always a good idea to have everything backed up. Personally I use multiple bootable clones. Tom

  • HT203176 i have a slow macbook, i ran live disk utilities and said I need to repair disk from a cd. did that, I got volume repaired from the external disk. when I reboot from hdd, then run disk utility, I get the same error message i did b4 repair

    i have a slow macbook, i ran live disk utilities (from hard drive), turned out I needed to repair disk from a installation disk. Did that, I got the volume (Hard drive) repaired from the installation disk disk. To this point, great!
    When I reboot from hdd, then run disk utility, I get the same error message i did b4 repair. I went thru two rounds of this.....
    Can anyone help? thanks

    Sorry guys, I don't see how to reply to you so I use reply to "me" basically.
    So the error I get is "volume header needs minor repair" and then you need to perform repair from the installation disk message.
    I did repair not verify from the disk twice. Every time ending in the "the volume had ha been successfully repaired". Then I reboot from the internal disk. Run disk utilities from it, do verify and get the same error message I got before repair. I hope this can shed some light fr you guys. Sorry I didn't include details in the original
    MEssage.

  • I tried installing Yosemite from 10.6.8 and the install failed. Ran a check and disk needs repai but "repair disk" isn't an option (greyed out). Can't start up under old 10.6.8 because it says "could not gather enough information." Help, please!

    startup disk fail

    Not lame at all. It's annoying that in order to salvage a disk the "official" way is reformat it. It's just a lack of documentation.
    Diskwarrior is actually a software from Alsoft. www.alsoft.com
    It's been around for ages and usually it's the last resort when everything else failes.
    If you don't have the software, you could try one option.
    Restart the malfunctioning computer and press T when you hear the startup sound. This will start the computer in transfer mode. You will see a huge firewire icon on the screen that just floats there.
    Connect the computer to a healthy mac with a firewire cable and it should appear as a HD, just as an external hard drive would. (don't worry if it doesn´t)
    Open Disk utility and in the left pane the malfunctioned Hard drive should appear. Run disk repair on the HD if possible. Once the repair disk has finished, with our without errors, open a new finder window and select the external hard drive.
    You could backup the data on the Drive at this stage onto the healthy computer... just to be safe.
    On the root of the Malfunctioned Disk there should be a folder named "OS X install data" or something like that. Basically something that normally would not be there...
    Delete that folder.
    Run Disk repair once again in Disk Utility. If successful, reboot the machine and see what happens.
    If that does not work at all, then perhaps you should consider purchasing Disk Warrior. Run the same process as before, connecting the malfunctioning mac via firefire, but this time run Diskwarrior on the healthy machine, locate the malfunctioning HD and select Rebuild for that Hard drive. It will take a little while but once its done processing it will ask you if you want to copy the new build, select yes. That did it for me at least.
    I hope that helps. You could check the app store or search online for software that is similar to Diskwarrior, there's probably some app that does the same thing. The only reason I used Diskwarrior is it has proven a good utility for Mac breakdowns and I've used (rarely though) it for years.

  • In Lion, how would a user REPAIR disk without a disk to boot from?

    In Lion, how would a user REPAIR Disk without a disk to boot from?  It's cool to download Lion from App Store, but I think they need to solve how they will repair disk without optical disk to boot from.  I have had to repair disk in with the disk utility around 5-10 times in the past.

    That does confuse the issue, a bootable DVD is for installing the operating system after a hard drive replacement, which also will include the recovery partition.
    Recovery parititions are a great idea for Windows as it fails often, but hard drives fail more often in Mac's than the operating system.

  • Does "repair disk" or boot from OS fix anything even if nothing wrong found?

    My mac was freezing a lot lately, and when I did "verify disk" it told me something like it needed to be repaired and booted from the OS dvd.
    so I did that, and did "repair disk", but it found nothing wrong.
    so I just restored everything from my time machine backup.
    should this process have fixed anything or should I expect nothing has changed?

    You might want to consider running the combo updater over your install to refresh your files.
    Combo updater: Mac OS X 10.6.8 Update v.1.1 - 1.09 GB
    http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1399
    MORE INFO ON WHY RUNNING COMBO FIXES ISSUES
    Apple updates available from the Software Update application are incremental updates. Delta updates are also incremental updates and are available from Apple Downloads (software updates are generally smaller than delta updates). The Combo updates contain all incremental updates and will update files that could have become corrupted.
    Combo updaters will install on the same version as they're applying--no need to roll back or do a clean install. So if you think you've got a borked 10.6.8 install from a regular update, just run the 10.6.8 Combo Updater on that system.
    "Delta" updaters can only take you from one version to the next. For example: 10.6.7 to 10.6.8. If somehow the 10.6.8 is missing something it should have, and that something isn't changed between 10.6.7 and 10.6.8 it will still be stale after the delta update.
