Using Disk Utility to repair Permissions

Hi there,
When running Disk Utility to Repair Permissions, why does it do it's job and then when you run it again to check, the same files are still being listed again as repaired?
Thanks.

What; are the messages that keep coming up in the show results window?  What system are you running?
Are they like those described in this Apple document: Mac OS X: Disk Utility's Repair Disk Permissions messages that you can safely ignore

  • PPC G5 OS X 10.5.8 using disk utility not all permissions repaired

    Dear apple Community,
    My G5 PPC iMac OS X 10.5.8, Processor 2GHz, memory 2 GB DDR SDRAM, Total Capacity:149.1 GB (160,041,885,696 Bytes)
    Applying Disk Utility to Repair Permissions there are always 12 permissions never repaired! Should I delete then reinstall the Operating system? OR
    Is there something else that could be the problem?
    Hope there is someone who may help
    Best Wishes,

    As long as the report ends up with 'Permissions repair complete' then, as far as permissions go, you are fine. You can ignore the various statements in the report:
    Permissions you can ignore on 10.5 onwards:
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1448
    Using 'should be -rw-r--r-- , they are lrw-r--r--' as an example, you will see the that the permissions are not changed, but the | indicates a different location. This is because an update to Leopard onwards changed the location of a number of system components.
    Poster rccharles has provided this description of what it all means:
    drwxrwxrwx
    d = directory
    r = read
    w = write
    x = executeable program
    drwxrwxrwx
    |  |  |
    |  |   all other users not in first two types
    |  | 
    |  group
    | 
    owner
    a little more info
    Before the user had read & write. A member of the group had read.
    After, only the user had read & write.

    I called Apple Support after getting no usuable help through the Apple Forums. The rep felt is was a problem with the two older USB 2.0 drives compatablility with the Retina Macbook Pro's USB 3.0. He kindly offered to send me a Compatable USB 3.0 Drive, but could not offer a solution.
    FYI, I tried using different cords and both USB 3.0 ports on my Retina MacBook Pro and both are self powered.

  • How do i run the disk utility to repair permissions:confused;

    how do i run the disk utility to repair permissions
    i think i hav the same problem as you all iv been
    restarting and deleting and renstaling but nothing seems to work
    the only thing i havent don is this repair prmission
    thing can someone type some instuctions on how or lead me where to
    go

    are you using mac OS10.2 or later?
    if so, this is what I did to solve this most frustrating
    problem. Go to Applications/Utilities/Disk Utilities
    In the Disk Utility window, click on your hard drive, make
    sure you're in the First Aid tab, then click on Repair Disk
    Permissions.
    Once the permissions were repaired, I took the advice of
    another user here on the forum and reinstalled Flash Player 6, as
    it was the one that was working before I tried to upgrade and it
    screwed everything up.
    Hope this helps

  • Disk Utility: cannot Repair Permissions, even on Leopard  installation disk

    After reinstall of iLife '08 and Software Update completed, I ran Repair Disk Permissions. Got an immediate red note "error: The underlying task reported failure on exit (sic)." with a flag: "First Aid failed. Disk Utility stopped repairing permissions on 'Mac HD...' because the following error was encountered: The underlying task reported failure on exit."
    I went to my Leopard Installation disk and ran "Repair Disk." No problem found. From the Installation disk, ran Repair Disk Permissions. got the same RED INK comments and flag, First Aid failed.
    Restarts don't help. Also, so far I have not found an application which is NOT working despite this Disk Utility problem, happy to report ;-))
    Additional background. I was reinstalling iLife to fix iPhoto after a clean reinstallation of Leopard and reincorporation of files and apps vis Time Machine. It had been several weeks and iPhoto appeared to be the only app which was not quite right.

    Disk Repair can trigger "underlying task" but I've never heard or seen a Permissions Repair do so.
    You should never use the DVD to repair permissions. You should be using the same OS version. And of course you can always repair permissions from your boot drive; or from backup/clone or alternate "emergency" drive. Otherwise, the DVD and older version of DU will be wrong.
    I know I read that on MacFixit, but I am not sure I bookmarked it.
    Don't rely on Apple First Aid, even a clean bill of health doesn't mean there aren't problems which Disk Warrior can deal with.

  • Time machine: An error occurred while copying files. The problem could be temporary. If the problem persists, use Disk Utility to repair your backup disk.

    Time machine backups are failing. I've followed the instructions I found on the Time Machine troubleshooting page (http://pondini.org/TM/Troubleshooting.html) but have gotten to where I don't know what to do next.
    Sequence of events:
    The main error message is always:

    Error: This disk needs to be repaired using the Recovery HD. Restart your computer, holding down the Command key and the R key until you see the Apple logo. When the OS X Utilities window appears, choose Disk Utility.
    I ran Disk Utility and repaired the hard drive. Then I manually started the backup before going to bed, figuring it was going to take a long time to run. When I got up this morning, the backup had failed with the same "could be temporary" error. I checked the log, which says:

    You have repaired your boot drive (which is good) but have you repaired your time machine drive?  I don't own a Time Capsule so I don't know if disk utility can operate on it.  If it can, you should repair it as well.  You may need to erase it and start a new backup.  That happens to time machine volumes from time to time and is why people who are serious about their data never rely on a single source of backup.

  • Can anyone help me?Time Machine couldn't complete the backup to...  An error occurred while copying files. The problem may be temporary. If the problem persists, use Disk Utility to repair your backup disk.  What is the problem?  I've made no changes.

    I recently starting receiving the error message "Time Machine couldn't complete the backup to... An erro occurred while copying files.  The problem may be temporary.  If the problem persists, use Disk Utility to repair your backup disk.  I have had no problems backing up my MacBook Pro 2011 to my Western Digital My Book Live through a Linksys EA4500 router until recently.  I've made no major changes.  I've ran a diagnosis on my back up drive with no problems.  The Time Machine back up starts, but about after about 5 to 10 minutes I get the error message.  I can see the shared drive in Finder.  The light on the drive blinks while it starts the back up.  I can see the shared folders on the networked drive.  The backup process starts but for some reason it just stops.  Can anyone help?

    You can't repair a network volume in Disk Utility.
    Backing up to a third-party NAS with Time Machine is risky, and unacceptably risky if it's your only backup. I know this isn't the answer you want, and I also know that the manufacturer says the device will work with Time Machine, and that it usually seems to work. Except when you try to restore, and find that you can't.
    If you want network backup with Time Machine, use as the destination either an Apple Time Capsule or an external hard drive connected to another Mac or to an 802.11ac AirPort base station. Only the 802.11ac base stations support Time Machine, not any older model.
    If you're determined to keep using the NAS for backup, your only recourse for any problems that result is to the manufacturer (which will blame Apple.)

  • Disk Utility: Can Repair Permissions = no.  Why?

    Disk Utility: Can Repair Permissions = no
    Why?

    It might help a little more if you would explain your situation enough so that people can make a guess what the problem might be. My guess is that the Repair Permissions button is grayed out - you can only repair permissions on a volume that has OSX installed on it. See http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=106712 for more information.

I don't have a TC but rather an external drive, which is twice the size of my harddisc, and it still has plenty of free space. The problem has lasted for 5 days. I even used a different external drive -- still same error message. Needless to say that I have run Disc Utility several times. Can anybody help? Thanks
    I am having issues with some USB drives on Mountain Lion.. work perfectly on another computer with Snow Leopard.. not even recognised by ML.
    Is the disk recognised?
    If so and TM cannot pick it up.. do a full reset of TM and try again.

  • How do I do this:  "This disk needs to be repaired. Start up your computer with another disk (such as your Mac OS X installation disc), and then use Disk Utility to repair this disk?"

    "This disk needs to be repaired. Start up your computer with another disk (such as your Mac OS X installation disc), and then use Disk Utility to repair this disk."

    Stick the disk in, reboot holding c.
    Disk Utility is a menu option about the 2 or 3rd screen in the installer. (don't install OS X!)
    Because your booted form the installer disk, you can repair the disk.
    Quit and exit the installer and reboot.
    If your drive is not repaired, make a note of all what it says, for Apple to use.
    Reboot and get your files off to a external drive,
    Take the note and your comptuer to Apple for a warranty/Apple care call, they will replace the drive.

  • Using Disk Utility's Repair Disk Command with Time Machine

    I'm trying to figure out whether or not I can use Disk Utility's Repair Disk command on a Time Machine volume. Time machine is taking a very long time to finalize its backups. I don't know if there are directory issues that need to be addressed or if it's due to the very large size of the directory. I've been using Time Machine on this computer since last January and the Time Machine directory takes up over 7 GB of disk space! It's so large that DiskWarrior will no longer work on that volume. DiskWarrior has a limit of 4 GB. I can't be the only one in this situation. I don't want my Time Machine backup to get hopelessly corrupted and then have to start agin. I'm trying to be proactive about correcting any issues before they become serious.

    Jon
    So far I haven't a clue as to what is wrong, so until a person stumbles in here with one, maybe you could amuse me with as to how you figured how much space the "catalog" is taking. I surely see nothing funny going on my system, although my Time Machine volume is smaller than yours and I might not be looking in all the right places.

  • Disk Utility's "Repair Permissions" doesn't

    On my MacPRo running Leopard 10.5.4, when I repetitively execute "Repair Permissions," Disk Utility repeatedly gives the following output:
    Group differs on "private/etc/cups", should be 0, group is 26.
    ACL found but not expected on "Applications".
    ACL found but not expected on "Library".
    But Disk Utility's "Repair Permissions" fails to make the necessary repairs, as subsequent runs yield the same results. Is this a "normal" thing, despite the above output messages, or do I have an underlying problem requiring further investigation? If necessary, suggestions as to how to proceed?

  • DisK Utility Not Repairing Permissions

    Hello, I have a problem with my iMac.
    The problem is as following: I cannot repair permission using Disk Utility.
    What happened first was that I wanted to install a program from a mounted drive, however a Pop up occurred and said the framework of installer was incorrect.
    After that, I went to Disk Utility and clicked repair permissions when a Pop up like this came up:
    http://img219.imageshack.us/img219/2582/picture1mt4.png
    What is the problem?
    Thank you for any help,
    Daniel

    -are you running Disk Utility from the HD or booted to the instal disk?
    -what are the affected files?
    If the file(s) was not installed by the mac OS X installer, Repair Permissions will not fix the issue
    Tip:
    If the files are located in your home folder,
    boot to instal disk#1,
    choose Reset Password Utility from the menu bar
    and "Reset Home Directory Permissions and ACLs".
    .
