Trouble with restored disk after HD failure

My HD failed and I restored it using a backup from time machine (complete reinstall using the CD) Now, when I move something to the trash it asks for my password. When I move folders the changes don't stay made when the machine is restarted. So far I have:
1. repaired permissions both from the desktop and from the original install disk.
2. verfied disk...volume is OK
3. Trashed the com.apple.finder.plist file.
Still having the same problems. Anyone have any other suggestions?

Reading this thread here you may have a permissions issue with your Home folder. If that is the case then Kappy's post in this thread http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?messageID=10675415&#10675415 detailing how to reset the permissions on your Home folder should help (obviously substitute your own name where required).

    These errors typically occur when security software interferes with the restore and update process. FollowTroubleshooting security software issues to resolve this issue. In rare cases, these errors may be a hardware issue. If the errors persist on another computer, the device may need service.

    Anyone else having trouble with FCPX crashing after the OSX update? It NEVER crashed until the update. The night before last it crashed 20 times in 45 minutes. I can't finish my project because of it.

    There are some patterns of crashes that suggest possible causes and fixes; some users report crashes when FCPX is in the process of loading; others while importing/exporting, etc. Asking to narrow the list of possibilities.
    Suggest starting with three things:
    1) Update the software from the APp Store  if need be.
    2) Trash preferences.
    3) Repair permissions.

  • HT4623 Is anybody having trouble with your ringer after installing OS 6.0 and using the new GPS system?

    Is anybody having trouble with your ringer after installing OS 6.0 and using the new GPS system?

    The good (?) news is many people are have OS 6.0.1 wifi problems.
    I could not connect to my home network.  What eventually worked for me (twice now), though it makes no sense, is to go to the particular connection you want to use, hit the little blue arrow on the right to get the details screen.  Scroll down to the bottom and change "HTTP Proxy" from "None" to "Auto".  Then leave the "URL" field that pops up blank. 
    This should not work.  However, it has for me where many other suggestions have not. 
    *shrug*
    Best of luck.

  • Has anyone had trouble with dropped calls after downloading the IOS 7

    has anyone had trouble with dropped calls after downloading the IOS 7

    I downloaded mountain lion and then iPhoto '11 in order to tap into iCloud capabilities with all of my devices. (My Mac was outdated in regards to operating platform to do this). After installing iPhoto 11, I had to repair and rebuild my library of photos.  However, after doing this, all of my albums were jumbled and, while I can see the image thumbnail, when I click on the thumbnail, and error that looks like a black triangle and gray exclamation pops up as opposed to the larger hi def image I want to view.

  • Trouble with LaCie disk and time machine

    HI everyone,
    I've been having trouble with using time machine to back-up to my 1 TB LaCie drive (purchased 5/12, unfornuately I was dumb and didn't register the drive and no longer have the box with the serial number and there is no serial number on my drive. The only problem I had up until the end of August was that every so often the LaCie drive (using my FW 800 port) would unmount after waking up from sleep.
    The end of August the drive unmounted for no reason while I was on the computer doing a task. Could not get the LaCie drive remounted (rebooting, etc. etc.) To make a long story short, ended up calling apple care who took me through resetting my SMC and PRAM to no avail. Was booted to higher level of support who walked me through trying to repair my drive using the disk utiltiy. When that didn't work, she walked me through erasing and reformatting the LaCie drive and starting a new time machine back-up. Every thing ok until about ten days ago.
    Last week, when I woke my iMac up from sleep, I got an error saying that the disk was not ejected properly and I could not mount the drive. Restarting did nothing, the disk did not  mount. Shutting down and rebooting seemed to solve the problem and the disk was mounted. Every so often I've had the problem with the disk unmounting after waking up from sleep before. So, I changed my energy sleep preferences. At the end of the day when I am done, I'd unmount the LaCie drive before putting the Mac to sleep using the apple menu.
    Today I came in to start my day, plugged the drive in and it would not mount. Tried rebooting nothing. Went into the disk utility, at first the LaCie drive passed the disk verify (6:26:25 and 6:26:38). Then I went into repair disk on the indented drive at 6:27:13, I wasn't sure what it is was doing, thinking that it had hung, I stopped the repair at 6:27:24. Exited disk utility, and the LaCie drive mounted. But I was getting a read only error when I tried to back-up using time machine. So, I went back into disk utility at 6:27:35, when I verified the disk (indented disk), I got an error saying the disk need to be repaired. After several minutes the disk could not be repaired. So, I erased and reformatted the drive. Ran a time machine back-up and it seemed to back-up everything on my hard drive. Just ran another verify disk and it passed.
    Is the drive failing? Have some other back-ups of my documents, my address book, iCal and am going to make a backup of some of my pref files and important e-mail files and am going to do some more back-ups after I am done.
    Have reached out to the women at apple care whom I talked to last August, but don't expect to hear back from her for at least 24 hours.
    Here is my disk utility log

    I just got a call back from the upper level support person at apple care who had been advising me on my trouble with time machine and my LaCie 1 TB FWD. I had sent her much of the same verbiage as I posted here. As some of you have probably figured out, the verdict is that the drive is probably failing. She says this because I have had to do two erase and reformats. She thought that the intermitant problem that I have had with the drive unmounting when my iMac wakes from sleep could be related to the drive failing.
    In the meantime I have a secondary back-up (not using time machine) and the LaCie  1 TB FWD is working for the moment.
    Thanks to all who read all my verbiage.
    And in the meantime, I've learned something. I marked this question as solved. But I'm open to other things to try.

  • Trouble with install disks - is it OK to make a copy of them?

    Finally, I am trying to make a copy of the install disks that came with my MBP. This was recommended in several threads for preserving the original and having backups just in case.
    I used Disk Utility to make a disk image - choosing DVD/CD master, no encryption - as I was instructed on another thread. I made the disk images fine of the 2 disks - they are now saved as disk images in the .cdr format. While I was at it, I made a disk image of the TechTool Deluxe CD that came with my AppleCare.
    When I inserted a CD (and then I tried a DVD) into the slot to Burn the disk image of the first (and then the second) install disk, I got the message that there is not enough room on the disk I am trying to use (for either disk). I had no trouble burning a disk of the TechTool Deluxe - I did that on a CD.
    When I go to Get Info for the disk image for the 2 install disks, it looks like each is no larger than 5 plus GB, which seems strange.
    What am I doing wrong?
    Mrs H

    When you make images of the discs, it is compressed. So when you get info of the image, that is smaller than the actual disc size. You said disc two was 3.97gb but really uncompressed it is likely over 6GB. For both install discs one and two, you need dual-layer DVDs to burn.
    Thanks for your help, mdpeterman.
    I wondered about the compressed issue - but since I chose CD/DVD master, (from Disk Utility Help: "If you want to use the disk image with a third-party application, choose CD/DVD master. The disk image contains a copy of all sectors of the disk, whether they're used or not, and copies them to other CDs or DVDs bit for bit") with no encryption I assumed that the size of the disk image was identical to the original.
    What you say tells me I'm wrong - that even with DVD master bit for bit, the image is compressed. Right?
    I'll get back to you when I have solved this...

  • Trouble with home sharing after apple tv update

    trouble with my home sharing after apple tv up date

    Same here. iPhone, Mac Mini and Apple TV3 are all up to date. Logged in and out on each device and home sharing and airplay still don't work at all. Nothing shows up in the remote app. They're all on the same network and have been. The only thing I can think of is the most recent ATV firmware update, but why would my phone be unable to see my computer??
    Any secret commands to try?

  • Anyone having trouble with internet connection after downloading mountain lion

    After installing Mountain lion to my mid 2011 imac 21" I am having trouble with my internet connection.  Anyone else have to deal with this?

    Are you on 10.8.2 as ypur profile says? If so, it's worth updating to 10.8.3 which was released last week.
    http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1640
    Here's a link to some suggestions that helped some users with similar problems in Lion. May still be relevant to MLion. Also check the links within the article:

    Also when I had wifi problems in the past, creating a new network location resolved it:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5289 (under the heading 'Making New Locations'.
    I've also seen threads where users with wifi problems have successfully solved them by changing the channel in the router's wifi settings.

  • Trouble with booting system after upgrade udev= systemd

    Hi everybody,
    I have been trouble with my system since last upgrade (udev => systemd)
    My issue is something like this: https://bbs.archlinux.org/viewtopic.php?pid=1106157 but advice from this discussion doesn't work.
    When system booting, *immediately* (very fast, too fast) display login screen after start parsing hook [udev]
    Of course, i can't login - type username and i have redraw screen again on all /dev/tty* - i have no chance to type password.
    Many invalid logins suspend init for 5 minutes and allow me see display error due stop redraw screen - libpam.so.0 cannot find.
    I suspect that, partitions aren't mount (this fast login screen doesn't have even hostname). I have a 4 discs, with many partitions - mounting
    this take a some time (+- 5 secs).
    In rescuecd, i can mount all partitions and chroot. In chroot all works fine - /bin/login (i was checked authorization on all users),
    paths and pams are ok. Of course i try ,,default rescue trick'': `pacman -Suy linux udev mkinitcpio` and 'mkinitcpio -p linux' on rescuecd
    but nothing it's changed after reboot. I checking grub config, and unpack and check initramfs-linux.img - all ok.
    In my mkinitcpio.conf ofcourse i have MODULES="ext3" (for my filesystems).
    Please help.

    ==> If your /usr is on a separate partition, you must add the "usr" hook

    And am wondering what the message means by if /usr is on a separate partition - separate partition to what?  /boot? / ?
    I have my /usr partition in the same partition as /  (but /boot is in a different partition)
    Logic tells me I'm safe (haven't rebooted yet), as / is "master", and anything else is a separate partition, and I have /usr on the same partition as /.
    Do you guys have separate /usr and/or /boot partitions?  As stated in first sentence this may not be related, but looks important...
    It means separate from /. So yes, you're right, you are "safe" from having to do anything with this message on your system.
    And to the other people on this thread: make sure you do have all your packages uniformly updated, including any pam-related AUR or ABS-build packages. libpam and the pam module directory (.../lib/security) were moved from /lib to /usr/lib a little while back, so make sure that anything that cares about where these may be have been updated so they aren't confused by this move.

  • Has anyone had trouble with photo albums after downloading a newer version of iPhoto?

    Has anyone had trouble with photo albums and viewing photos after downloading a newer version of iPhoto?

    I downloaded mountain lion and then iPhoto '11 in order to tap into iCloud capabilities with all of my devices. (My Mac was outdated in regards to operating platform to do this). After installing iPhoto 11, I had to repair and rebuild my library of photos.  However, after doing this, all of my albums were jumbled and, while I can see the image thumbnail, when I click on the thumbnail, and error that looks like a black triangle and gray exclamation pops up as opposed to the larger hi def image I want to view.
