Strange output from permissions repair

This not so much a problem but a question. When I did a routine permissions repair, I got the following message:
Repairing permissions for “Startup HD”
Warning: SUID file "usr/libexec/load_hdi" has been modified and will not be repaired.

I have never seen a message that is headed, "Warning," and I don't know what it all means nor what to do about it if action is required.
Anyone know what this all means?
Thanks!

Well, you are right. Using the link you provided, the warning lines went away. I wonder how you knew to use that update other than the other? It took just short of 10 hours to do that download - more actually, but I didn't count the number of times I had to restart the download due to losing carrier during the download.
Apple is killing me with these enormous downloads. I live in a rural area, too far away from the road to use cable, so no broadband. The population density isn't there for Verizon or other carriers to make DSL available. I could use a satellite service but it is just way too expensive both with the monthly subscription price and with the investment in hardware needed. 109 megs to make this problem go away. Just not right. I think Apple forgets that many people do not have a high speed connections.
Anyway, thanks again.

  • Strange return from permissions repair

    After having a problem with  Software Update acting very strange, (it would seem like it was frozen, but actually was just extremely slow and unresponsive until it did whatever I had just clicked on) I did a permissions repair. I then downloaded the update and did the repair one more time. Both times I got an extrememly long list of changes and both times it included this:
    Warning: SUID file "System/Library/CoreServices/RemoteManagement/ARDAgent.app/Contents/MacOS/ARDAg ent" has been modified and will not be repaired.
    The Remote Management part bothers me as I don't have anything set up for managing my computer other than from the keyboard. Can someone tell me what this is?
    Thanks,

  • Strange Output From CS3 to Fiery printers

    When we output from Indesign CS3 we get a couple of strange issues to our fiery and one new issue just started with our Harlequin RIP.
    When printing a multi page document to the Fiery's (5 Different ones) sometimes page 1 will be oriented correctly and all of the other pages will be rotated on the sheet and cut off. Also when I go to make changes through command workstation to change duplex settings, image shift etc. It's a crapshoot if it will work on Indesign files. This has been happening with all iterations of Leopard.
    When printing to the Harlequin using a preset envelope template the file is oriented wrong. It doesn't matter if we put the sizes in manually or how we set the orientation in the print window it's wrong. This has been happening for a few weeks.
    Curretly we are on 10.5.5

    Sorry I wasn't clear. The rips are the print servers. They are hooked to a variety of printers Xerox, Konica, Canon and Presstek. The problem is when I send the file and preview it at the RIP. The problems are also there when I output the files from the Rip to the printers.
    The Fiery Problem is ocuring on several different Fiery RIPS each connected to it's own printer. We only have on Harlequin RIP and Device so I'm not sure how widespread it is. The problems do not exist if I send PDF's or other native files such as quark.

  • 10.6.8 rainbow wheel - strange startup following perm repair

    I've been getting the rainbow wheel quite often on Safari and other apps.  As if it stalls for a bit then resumes regualr functioning.  Upon restart I get either a very delayed white screen before seeing the grey apple or I get the grey apple with the grey progress bar below it. 
    Booted from Snow Leopard OS disk and performed the password utility and reset all user and root ACL's.  Perfomed disk utility's verify disk which came back okay. Performed permissions repair after finding unexpected ACL's and wrong permissions on private/var/root/library and users/shared.
    Rebooted and noticed that "network" user was on the list of users and there was a lowecase  "m" right under "OSX"  at the top of the login window. 

    more info:
    it is the host that is somehow changing to "m"
    During one restart, I got the blinking folder with a question mark.  Rebooted again, and was able to get into the system but only after a very long start up period. 
    What console log should I be looking at to detrimine what is going on here?

  • Strange output from prtdiag

    I inserted the 2nd CPU into the E250 and turned on the system. Upon the banner shown, I did Stop-A and type in 'boot -r' at the ok> prompt. It continued and eventually gave me the login prompt. Once I logged in and did prtdiag, I get conflict information as to how many CPUs are running: the first line says there are two while the CPUs section shows only one. Did I do something wrong?
    Below the the output.
    Thanks!

  • Strange output from format command

    Hi,
    We have a Sun V480 running Solaris 8. We have installed 2 SG-XPCI2FC-QF2 fibercards. They are connected to an EVA3000 system. SFS newest version are also installed.
    Have configured the cards with the cfgadm command. But when i run a format command i get this output. Normally it will show somthing like this c1t0d1. But here it shows c11t50001FE15005F54Dd1

    Can anyone explain this? I was possible to format the disk. But are this OK?
    Thanks,

    Rather than having disk target numbers, format now see's the disks WWN or World Wide Number. If you look at your output, disk 0 and disk 1 have the standard c1t0d0 and c1t1d0 identifiers, but the targets on controller 11 and 12 show the WWN for the LUNs/disks on the EVA3000. This is to help with multipathing etc. Yes it is on to slice the LUNs/disks.

  • Strange output from my java file

    Hi all,
    I made a post not long too long ago about some issues i was having. However since then i have not been able to come online or continue much with my work. I've just starting working on it again and after fixing the errors and implementing a little more code i had an unexpected output.

                                                      if (row == 0 || row == (boardGrid.length -1) || col == 0 || col == (boardGrid[0].length -1))
                                                             boardGrid[row][col] = WALL;
                                                 //Insert the snakes head
                                                 else if (row == SNAKESTARTX && col == SNAKESTARTY)
                                                         boardGrid[row][col] = SNAKEHEAD;
                                                 //Insert the snakes one body peice
                                                 else if (row == SNAKESTARTX + SNAKEBODYOFFSETX && col == SNAKESTARTY + SNAKEBODYOFFSETY)
                                                              boardGrid[row][col] = SNAKEBODY;
                                  else if (row == FOOD && col == FOOD)
                                       boardGrid[row][col] = FOOD;
                                                      //Make all the rest blanks
                                                 else
                                                    boardGrid[row][col] = BLANK;
                   System.out.println(boardGrid);
    }

    When you want to print an array then you can't just do
    System.out.println(someArray);This implicitly calls .toString() on the array which produces the result that you saw (= something that isn't very useful).
    You could write
    System.out.println(Arrays.deepToString(someArray));(after inporting java.util.Arrays).

  • Strange output from jrcmd print_memusage (R28)

    Hi guys,
    my jrcmd print_memusage tells me that my my heap is exactly the same size as my 'Compiled code' memory space:
    Total mapped 3709432KB (reserved=1053884KB)
    - Java heap 1048576KB (reserved=0KB)
    - GC tables 35084KB
    - Thread stacks 46848KB (#threads=162)
    - Compiled code 1048576KB (used=50879KB)
    - Internal 904KB
    - OS 64836KB

    - Native memory tracking 3456KB (malloced=1451KB #10)
    This seems very weird to me, why would these 2 things be exactly the same?

    seems like a large amount of memory for compiled code but thanks for the response. Good to know the result is a sane one.

  • Our MacbookPro began running very slow a few days ago. I ran disk repair, permissions repair, and restored the OS from the Apple server. Kernal_Task appears to be using excessive CPU.

    I uninstalled all of the Intego products. I restarted the laptop, also ran disk repair and permissions repair again. Then allowed the machine to run with no apps active, just in case the OS was perfroming cleanup funtions. Results: No discernible improvement in performance. The kernal_task shows 500+% and the CPU graph shows 70%-80%.
    There is one hardware issue: The magsafe battery port stopped charging the battery, so the laptop must be plugged in all the time.

  • Snow Leopard vs Long list of permissions repairs from 10.5.8 update

    Hello Everyone,
    My question is more of result of technical curiosity than anything else.
    This is the first Mac that I have ever owned, therefore it must be said that I have never upgraded the Mac OS X operating system before.
    It is well documented here in these forums that the latest update to Leopard (10.5.8) resulted in a rather long list of permissions repairs for many users, including myself. I have read through most of the posts regarding this issue and have even taken the advice which several of you have given to "reapply the combo update twice without doing a permissions repair"
    Nevertheless, the list is still there, and according to most users, as well Apple, these can be ignored.
    Having said that, I fully intend to upgrade to Snow Leopard when it is released on Friday...But, when I do, should I assume that since the upgrade essentially installs a new operating system, the permissions data base will show up without any permissions errors? Or is the only way to clear the permissions list, a "nuke and pave" (erase and install) which purportedly is not an option on the upgrade disc.
    Most of you out there are smarter than I am and much more experienced with the process so any expert advice you may have would be appreciated.
    Thanks in advance,
    joe

    In all the articles you've read through, it doesn't seem you quite understand the issue.
    When they put out 10.5.8, Apple replaced a lot of files with links to the originals. The repair database doesn't know that they are supposed to be links. So, permission repair reports them as different than what it expects. There is nothing wrong. Stop repairing permissions for no reason and they won't bother you.
    There is nothing you can do to cause them to go away. When Apple puts out another update, they will hopefully update the database so that it recognizes those links and doesn't report them. However, I expect at some time in the future, stuff will change and the permission database will not get updated, and you will see similar notifications.

  • Permissions repair weirdness

    Hi! I am trying to figure out a bunch of problems happening on my MacPro 2008, most likely related to software. One thing at a time!
    I usually regularly repair permissions on Snow Leopard's main drive, and to do that I boot from the external HD that has all the utilities on. Some strange things happened this morning, after a screen of death, and a successful repair of some errors with Disk Utility. Now when I try permissions repair, it waits and waits and nothing happens.
    When I use Drive Genius, the permissions repair option is grayed out. What does this all mean? Is this normal? I ALWAYS see permissions being repaired when I ask for it.  This is the first time I don't. I am trying to understand. Any wisdom appreciated.
    Thanks!
    Rad

    First thing, Permissions repair is not a regular maintenance item. It should only be done in the usually rare case that you are having a problem with an Apple installed item.
    If you do repair Permissions, you should be doing this directly from the normal startup volume, not an external. You don't need any special utility for this, just Disk Utility.
    See if repairing from the startup volume makes a difference. If not, then check to see your receipts are still present in /var/db/receipts. You can use Go to Folder and just enter that. This is where Permissions knows what to check.

  • No sound output from dock connector or headphones but speaker is fine

    I've got a 3GS which I've had since October.
    Recently, there has been no sound output from the headphone socket - or rather, what does come out is very strange, sounding almost electronically distorted.
    I thought that maybe the headphone jack was broken, but now I've found out that the same thing can be heard through a dock when the iPod is connected this way.
    I'm fairly sure the dock connector is still fine as the phone charges and can be controlled by the dock etc
    Most of the discussions I've found relate to sound not coming from the speaker on the phone, but this is absolutely fine.
    Any ideas?

    Hi, and welcome to Apple Discussions.
    Have you tried resetting the PMU?
    I'm not optimistic that this will help any more than the procedures you've already tried, but it won't hurt to try.
    Do you still have your OS 9 installation? If so, try booting into OS 9 and see if the problems with the audio are happening there, too. If so, you can bet it's a hardware problem.
    How big is your hard drive and how much space remains available on it? If you don't have your OS 9 installation in order to check out whether it's a hardware problem and you have enough available hard drive space, you may want to try an Archive and Install of the OS in order to make sure it isn't an OS X system-wide problem. If that doesn't do it, you could back up your hard drive and restore your software.
    All of this may just be spinning your wheels, but it's all stuff you can try before shelling out a lot of money for repairs.
