Strange message when repair preferences.

When I use Disk Utility lately to repair permissions, I get this message in the repair screen:
"Warning: SUID file "System/Library/CoreServices/Finder.app/Contents/Resources/OwnerGroupTool" has been modified and will not be repaired."
Then process continues and permissions (otherwise) are repaired.
? What does this "Warning" mean and should any action be taken?

  • Strange message when paying online

    Hi, For about the last month I have been getting a strange message when paying for stuff online. It usually works the second time I try! The message isYour authentication could not be completed because of a system error. If this happens consistently, please contact your CSR. I first thought virus/malware but scans have not found anything (Avast & Malwarebytes). I was using Firefox but have tried IE today as an experiment and I got the message on that too. I also tried a different c/card the other day and still got it! I have googled the message which seems to indicate card issuer problems but none of the occurances I've looked at are not that recent so I'm a bit unsure where to look and was wondering if it might be something to do the Sky site filtering software? Any thoughts would be appreciated.Nick

    Claudio,
    Fingers (well-chilled fingers) are X'ed for you.
    At least you have not received the dreaded "4" error message...
    Good luck to us all.

  • Strange Message When Trying to Sync iOS 4.1

    Ever since updating to iOS 4.1 yesterday, I have been receiving the following message when trying to sync my iPhone 4 with my home PC: "The iPhone "Mike's iPhone" Cannot Be Synced; You Do Not have Sufficient Privileges For This Operation". This is my third iPhone and I have never received this message before; also, I am using the same PC (Windows 7 Home Premium 64 bit)that I have for the past 8 months, and have never before seen this message. I am the sole user and administrator on the PC; the strange thing is, my iPhone appears to be syncing ok. I Googled this and saw several responses related to deleting the "iPod Photo Cache" folder on my PC, which I did, but I still get the same error message. Any thoughts?

    In which step the error is occuring.
    The following steps will help you to configure synchronization -
    1.     
    Connect
    your device using Desktop Manager and click on Synchronization
    2.     
    From the
    menu on the left click Synchronization under Configuration
    3.     
    Again
    click Synchronization button on the right which will give you option to Select
    Device Application that you want to synchronize

  • Strange message when entering the Testing subforum

    As noted by Somali.Pirates in his thread "Hello Claudio", when one enters the Testing subforum, one gets a strange message. This is the version I get in Explorer11/Win7:
    This happens to me in IE/Win, Firefox/Mac and Safari/Mac, but not in Chrome/Win. When I click on the Accept button, I enter the subforum normally. In all cases, there is that misterious "2", buy only in IE I have the option of closing the box, which apparently produces the same effect than the Accept button.
    Yet another new Adobe/Jive "feature"?

  • Strange message when logged in to bpel console

    Hi All!
    I just installed bpel on my linux machine. After starting the bpel server and logging into the console I saw this strange message:
    Cannot find instances.
    An attempt to fetch the instances using the where condition " ( ci_state = 1 OR ci_state = 2 OR ci_state = 3 )order by ci_modify_date desc " from the datastore has failed. The exception reported is: ORA-00942: table or view does not exist.
    Please check that the machine hosting the datasource is physically connected to the network.
    Also I created a pl/sql helloworld webservice, and a bpel process to invoke it through a partnerlink. After deploying it to the default domain I see only name of the bpel process in the deployed processes list unlike both the bple process name and the webservice name.
    The linux flavor I am using is fedora red hat. The database is oracle 10g on the localhost itself. The bpel version is 10.1.2.0.2.
    What could be the cause of these problems. I feel the second problem is because of the first problem that is there. Any suggestions and solutions please.
    Thanking in advance,
    Regards,
    Deepika.

    Hi All!
    Ran the script for the view generation. Found it in domain_oracle.ddl. Granted dba privilege to orabpel to execute the script. Redeployed the bpel process. Now no error is there and the bpel process works fine.I think to successfully install bpel on linux box orabpel needs admin privileges.
    Regards,
    Deepa.

  • Strange message when opening a FCP file

    Hello, I have recently updated my Final Cut Studio to have FCP6 and when I open a project that uses Apple Pro Res it tells me this:
    "File format is too new for this program"
    Any thoughts on why this is so?
    Thanks in advance for any help

    You will see this message when you attempt to open a project file that was created on a version of FCP that is newer than the version that you are using.
    What version of Final Cut Pro was used to create the project?
    What version of Final Cut Pro do you currenty have?
    I know you said FCP6 in your post, but the *point version* is important.
    (6.0.1, 6.0.2 etc, with 6.0.5 being current)

  • Strange message when trying to connect to another computer via SMB

    Hello,
    I sucessfully set up a MAC/VISTA network and used it for the past days. I connected through CMD+K smb//:<my_ip>
    But now I get everytime the following message when doing that:
    _*"Connection failed" - This data server is already active on your computer. Please access the files and volumes locally.*_
    (This is my translation of the german message, so it might not be the correct translation)
    Anyway, I can't find the share in Finder, it is not there anymore. What does this message means, I'm confused??

    open up your terminal (/Applications/Utilities/Terminal.app)
    Type in the following:
    cd /Volumes <enter>
    ls -al <enter>
    Now see if the name of your Vista PC is in the list. If it is, unmount them (there may be multiple instances)
    umount <Name of Volume> <enter>
    You may have to use the "force" flag, like so:
    umount -f <Name of Volume> <enter>
    You'll have to be root to do that.

  • Strange message when opening an image in PS5

    Sometimes when I open an image in CS5  I get this weird message It reads  "photoshop has encountered a problem with the display driver
    and has temporily disabled GPU enhancements. Check the video card manufacturers website for the latest software.  GPU enhancements can be
    enabled in the perfermormance panel of preferences"  I am really at a loss as to what this means./when I go to preferences then performance I get this large screen with numerences choices, none of which mean anything to me. Does anyne have any advice or assistance. Honestly I cannot tell any change when I continue to process the selected image. But all that information has got to mean something.
    Jim Reasoner

    You likly have a buggy display driver.  They're fairly common.
    Adobe describes the GPU-specific features (which you're losing when it disables OpenGL) here:  http://kb2.adobe.com/cps/405/kb405745.html
    What you need to do to solve the problem at the root cause is (assuming you have a desktop computer) to visit the web page of the maker of your video card (e.g., nVidia or ATI) and download/install the latest display driver for your hardware and OS.
    If you have a laptop usually you have to get the display drivers from the laptop maker's web site.

  • Warning message when repairing permissions

    I Just repaired permissions and the usual large list showed up. But this time I got a message that says:
    "Warning: SUID file "System/Library/CoreService...ent" has been modified and will not be repaired.
    I navigated to that site and could not find a SUID file. Does anyone know what that stands for and could this be a problem?
    Thanks for any assistance.
    Rich

    Thanks Macjack,
    I seemed to get that response after updating to 10.6.7 and my confusion is that when I go to Core Service Folder in the Library, I don't even see any SUID File at all? And this is the first time I have ever received a warning that a file has been modified and not repaired. Have you seen a warning like this before?

  • Strange Message in Systems Preferences

    My wife's Dell just died so I'm trying to set her up on my old Mac Mini running 10.4.x. After installing the latest security update, System Preferences Networks infinite loops to this button message: Network settings have been changed by another application. Once I try to access Networks in Systems Preferences and this message won't disappear, until I force quit.
    Any suggestions on how to fix this?
    Thanks in advance.

    Hi
    Launch Terminal on the computer. Issue these commands:
    sudo rm -R -v /Library/Preferences/SystemConfiguration
    sudo reboot now
    Provide the local admin password when prompted. If you haven't set a password, set one. You won't see the password being typed.
    On successful reboot, login and give the computer a desired name in the Sharing Preferences Pane. You should now be able to access the Network Preferences Pane.

  • Error message when Repair permissions

    "System/Library/CoreServices/RemoteManagement/ARDAgent.app/Contents/MacOS/ARDAge nt" has been modified and will not be repaired."
    This is the message I get when running Repair Permissions. What is it and how do I fix it. I thought the issues was with Office 2004 and removed that but it remains.

    That error is a result of the Remote Desktop software update.
    There are numerous threads in here about this already.
