What does ACL mean in Verify Permissions?

I have been having problems since upgrading from Panther to Leopard on December 12 of 08. I think I have the majority of them addressed... I am running the disk utility and verifying and repairing permissions 2 times per month, emptying caches almost every day, and zapping the PRAM in order to address constant freeze-ups on startup... sometimes at the blue screen and sometimes the wheel just keeps turning, turning, turning, etc., but it still happens daily. Any ideas why on this one?
Now I am getting this message when verifying permissions:
ACL found, but not expected on "Applications/Utilities"
ACL found, but not expected on "Applications"
ACL found, but not expected on "Library"
What does ACL mean and why is it not expected?
Any answers? It would be appreciated.

Hi! Most have found that if they download the new combo update and reapply the update the acl messages in repair permissions disappear and the report will be clean for the first time. Tom

What does it mean @ in the permit status of a file?

I have never seen the @ symbol in the status of a file.
This is an excerpt of a directory listing in my iMac:
~$ ls -ltr | grep @
-rw-r--r--@ 1 casianorodriguezleon staff 12107 14 nov 10:58 object-design.png
-rw-r--r--@ 1 casianorodriguezleon staff 16777 27 dic 09:08 parrotify_logo.png
-rw-r--r--@ 1 casianorodriguezleon staff 2791 3 ene 15:17 defaultlogo.png

-rw-r--r--@ 1 casianorodriguezleon staff 300352 17 mar 08:58 Descargas alias
I guess it is s.t. related to fileVault, since it appeared after
I set fileVault in my account.
Does anyone knows the meaning of '@' at the end of the status?

What does it mean when REPAIRING PERMISSIONS just hangs indefinetly?

I'm running Repairing Permissions and it just stops a little before halfway
through the process. It stops progressing.
Is it fixing something and if I leave it alone for an hour or so will it eventually
move on, or is the fact that it keeps stopping in that one spot usually
mean there is a serious hard drive problem?
It's a G4 1.6 powerbook, running 10.3.9. And it's running really slow, so
I'm trying to repair permissions to see if that will help.

hi brvideo,
repairing permissions is not likely to speed your machine up.... i would start off by rebooting, and just before the chime hold down the command and S keys at the same time. your machine will boot into single-user mode (black screen with ascii text on it)...
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=106388
then type /sbin/fsck -fy and hit return.
are any errors seen? if so, enter that command again. if it looks like they got fixed, then enter reboot to restart...
post back with the results.... cheers

I had this exact same problem just now, trying to upgrade to 10.7.
I even got that error msg when trying to UNINSTALL iTunes!
After hours of frustration trying everyone's different suggestions, I downloaded Revo Uninstaller http://www.cnet.com.au/apps/revo-uninstaller-10610875/ which solved the problem.
Use it to help uninstall iTunes and related software components in the following order and then restart your computer:
1. iTunes
2. QuickTime
3. Apple Software Update
4. Apple Mobile Device Support
5. Bonjour
6. Apple Application Support (iTunes 9 or later)
Then you can install iTunes from scratch.
Good luck

HT1452 Repair permissions says Group 0 should be group 80...what does this mean?

What does this mean...Group 0 should be 80?
Some say Group 80 should be 0?

It just means the item is assigned to the wrong owner. 0 is the OS, 80 is the admin user. So the item's permissions were improperly assigned to the OS as the owner rather than the admin account.

I tried to download the latest OSX Mountain Lion and got this notice - "We could not complete your purchase. The product distribution file could not be verified. It may be damaged or was not signed. " What does this mean and why can't I download it?

I tried to download the latest OSX for my iMac - Mountain Lion.
This is the message that I received:
"We could not complete your purchase. The product distribution file could not be verified. It may be damaged or was not signed."
What does this mean?

The only thing that worked for me was to boot in safe mode.
Power down. Then press power button and hold 'shift' key until grey screen with progress bar appears... Once booted and logged in just open safari and browse to applestore.
No trouble at all once I did this.
Reminder: create full backup before you upgrade OS
Hope it helps.

When I try to update Firefox I get a window saying it can't be loaded because I do not have all the necessary permissions. What does this mean and what do I do?

If there are problems with updating or with the permissions then easiest is to download the full version and trash the currently installed version to do a clean install of the new version.
Download a new copy of the Firefox program and save the DMG file to the desktop
* Firefox 6.0.x: http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all.html
* Trash the current Firefox application to do a clean (re-)install
* Install the new version that you have downloaded
Your profile data is stored elsewhere in the Firefox Profile Folder, so you won't lose your bookmarks and other personal data.
