Why do I keep having to repair disk permissions to print (wifi) to epson px720?

And is there anything I can do to sort this problem out?
Prints OK for a while after repairing disk permissions and reseting printers but after a while, unpredictably, send off and doesn't print - no error messages - just keeps spooling in print monitor.

So just reset printers doesn't do it?
Is this what you're doing?

  • Keep having to 'Repair Disk permissions'.

    My MBP (2.53 GHZ Intel Core i5, running 10.6.8) keeps running slow, and only improves after Repairing Disk Permissions. I had to run this again this morning - and I'd only ran Permissions repair two days ago! This is what I got;

    The other day the list was probably 3 times this length, often ending with '...but they are 80'.
    Any ideas?
    Thanks

    Have you run Repair Disk?
    http://support.apple.com/kb/TS1417
    Have you checked SMART status?
    Check the S.M.A.R.T. status on your HD:Applications > Utilities > Disk Utility > in the panel at left, selectthe first item in the list/your HD mechanism>look at the bottom of the mainwindow next to S.M.A.R.T. status and see if it says “Verified” or somethingmore ominous like “Failing.”
    Have you run background maintenance scripts?
    http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=107388
    Have you checked in Activity Monitor to see if any processes are using a high ammount of CPU?
    Sometimes a process can run amok and use more of the CPU than it should, potentially causing a slowdown and/or heat issues and/or other issues. To check on this, first use your Mac as you normally would, the longer the better (checking this right after starting up may not show you anything). After you’ve used your Mac for awhile (again, the longer the better), go to Applications > Utilities > open Activity Monitor > in the top menu at right, select All Processes in the drop downmenu > click on the column heading titled % CPU (this will update continuously, showing the percentage each process is using) > toward the bottom left of the window, click on CPU (this will show % Idle, which will also tell you how much of the CPU is being used). 
    Have you done an SMC Reset?

    And 4GB used, 2GB free btw...
    By chance is it referring to RAM usage?

  • Why can't I verify or repair disk permissions?

    In recent weeks, when I have tried to verify or repair disk permissions, I get messages that say (whatever file) has been altered and will not be repaired.

    I just wondered why I could suddenly no longer verify or repair anything.
    That is not what you said in an earlier post. you said you got some errors that certain files could not be repaired. That is Not the same as I Can't Repair Anything. Certain files not having the permissions repaired is Normal. It happens on every Mac.

  • Constantly having to repair disk permissions after hanging system

    From the time I purchased this I've had ongoing issues with the java, flash, OS updates causing the computer to hang forever. Sometimes I end up having to press the off button because Command Q and Command/Option/Escape won't allow a force quit even after a 20 minute wait. I don't know enough about what's going on behind the boot up to know what's wrong. Here is a copy of my console log and this is exactly what they look like each time after I have gone in and done a disk verify, (says it's okay) and then repair disk permissions. I've had to boot to safe mode 3 times today and repair permissions due to this issue. There is nothing plugged into the computer except the power cord. The OS is up to date per Software Update and the only 3rd party software installed is SKYPE ...

    Can anyone see the issue or tell me what I need to do to fix this thing???

    Which MacBook model? Did it come with OSX 10.6 or did you upgrade it?

  • Why won't my macbook pro repair disk permissions after upgrading to Mountain Lion?

    I upgraded my 2010 Macbook pro with 2.4gHz core 2 duo processor to Mountain Lion and ever since it has been giving me issues. One of my biggest concerns is that it will no longer repair disk permissions. The progress bar goes about half way and just sits there without finishing, and this is something i'm used to doing very regularly. Other than that it has been crashing fairly often and just acting strange where on Snow Leopard it never crashed or had any issues. Any suggestions? 

    Quit Safari. From the Finder click on Go > Go to Folder and type ~/Library/Preferences. Delete the com.apple.Safari.plist file. Logout/Login and restart Safari. Try to save a bookmark to the Bookmarks bar.

  • You May Want to Repair Disk Permissions After Printer Updates Today

    It's been pretty automatic for quite a while--install printer updates and then repair disk permissions.  Most of the time, the permissions errors aren't critical and everything still works; however, many people like to keep their boot disk permissions fixed.
    After installing "HewlettPackardPrinterDrivers2.7.2" and "BrotherPrinterDrivers2.7" today I again repaired permissions.  The errors weren't critical, but I can't remember seeing more of them than I did today.  Make sure and scroll the list of errors because if you don't have scroll bars showing all the time, it doesn't look like there is much in the way of errors.  When I didn't see a scroll bar, I assumed there were only a few errors--wrong.
      My installation was on a Lion system.  And, Disk Utility did fix them all.  None were there when I repaired permissions a second time.
    Just an FYI.

    Which MacBook model? Did it come with OSX 10.6 or did you upgrade it?

  • Worried about need to constantly repair disk permissions

    Here is my analysis and conclusions as to why I need to constantly repair disk permissions:
    I recently got the top-o'-the-line iMac (see info below) which shipped with Lion but since I wanted Snow Leopard (just because I have a few PowerPC games that I can't live  without) I reformatted the hard drive - into 1 partition from the 2 that Lion had - and installed Snow Leopard and went back to business as usual....only with one **** great and fast computer. BTW, as far as I know this computer is exactly the same computer that shipped with Snow Leopard prior to Lion's introduction. I swore that I would never get another desktop computer because this one would last me forever. My only hesitation now is because the need to constantly repair permissions means something is not right. On the one hand I could just keep on repairing (daily?) the permissions for the next 20 years, or.... what? Is it possible (or should I be asking Apple itself instead of in this forum) that there is some other difference between the Snow Leopard and the Lion versions of  this iMac - is this what "firmware" is all about? - that produces this constant need to repair permissions? If that's the case, would Apple give me a Snow Leopard-friendly logic board (and/or install the correct firmware) in exchange for the Lion logic board - or am I just going to have to live with having to perform this permissions-update function? Or is having to repair disk permissions not a big deal or something worrying about? Any ideas would be appreciated - thanks!

  • Have to check & repair disk permissions on every restart

    Can anyone explain why I have to check &amp; repair disk permissions every time I have to restart my MacBook Pro.  When I do the check I get various messages eg 'Library should be '0',  is '80'. And other variations for Library.

    I'd do one/more of a few things.
    First, (and not only good for this exercise), I'd back up to a Super Duper or Carbon Copy Cloner clone - on an external disc, and/or use Time Machine.
    Next step, boot in Safe mode and see how things are.
    Next, create another account with similar permissions to the one you are using now. If the problem persists in this account also it is system wide.
    Next boot from the clone you made and see what gives..........

  • Repairing disk permissions keeps giving same message

    I routinely verify my HD and repair disk permissions. The latter often indicates repairs are needed, especially after installation of new software or updates (I repair before and after). But once repaired, if I verify the permissions they come out ok -- i.e., no repairs are needed. Until just recently. I am now getting the following message after repairing permissions:
    Verify permissions for “Macintosh HD”
    Determining correct file permissions.
    Permissions differ on ./private/var/log/secure.log, should be -rw------- , they are -rw-r-----
    Permissions verification complete
    The privileges have been verified or repaired on the selected volume
    If I verify permissions after repairing this, I get the same message again. So the repair is not holding. I am running OS X 10.4.11 and I recall that on earlier OS's there were sometimes innocuous repairs that kept being required, but that were not really a problem. But under 10.4.11 a repair has usually been good, and clears the deck. Until now. Any ideas?
    Update: I am no longer having this problem. Possibly I was clicking on the verify permissions button instead of the repair button. I have used DU many times, so this would be a fairly boneheaded thing to do at this point. Maybe familiarity breeds carelessness? In any event, I often get the message above when I check disk permissions, and I would be curious to know why it is one of the more common repairs needed. So let's make that my question instead...
    TIA
    Message was edited by: Drake Bradley

    Not to worry about it, that secure.log is a common one for that.
    Repair Permissions checks Library>Receipts to find out the proper Permissions, that file's Permissions may exist in more than one and/or some OS component doesn't know the new/latest permissions when using it.

    Now everything seems clear.
    My question...
    Why did I initially see:
    2008-11-29 08:43:29 -0800: Permissions differ on "private/var/log/secure.log", should be -rw------- , they are -rw-r----- .
    2008-11-29 08:48:26 -0800: Group differs on "private/etc/cups", should be 0, group is 26.
    and why after restarting should I end up with only
    2008-11-29 09:38:47 -0800: Group differs on "private/etc/cups", should be 0, group is 26.
    and after “Clear History” and rerunning Disk Utility why is everything clear until I start using the computer again?
    I’ve had it explained that “Group differs on "private/etc/cups", should be 0, group is 26” is not meaningful, but I’d like to know WHY it happens. I’d also like to know why “ Permissions differ on "private/var/log/secure.log", should be -rw------- , they are -rw-r----- .” initially appears.
    Thank you,

    As a casual "Apple Discussions" user it hadn't occurred to me that if a question had been answered previously, it should never be asked again.
    It's not that. It's because the problem's been beaten to death over the past fourteen months, since Apple shipped Leopard, that most consider it common knowledge, no matter where one's been visiting or how often. Every Apple/Macintosh related website has addressed the never ending issue. Finally, since the forums Help file says:
    *I have a question or issue—how do I search for answers?*
    +It's possible that your question or issue has already been answered by other members so do a search before posting a question. On most Apple Discussions pages, you'll find a Search Discussions box in the upper right corner. Enter a search term (or terms) in the field and press Return. Your results will appear as a list of links to posts below the Search Discussions Content pane.+
    +You can also refine your search by using the options in the Search Discussions Content pane. Click the Search Tips link for help with our search features. You can streamline your results by restricting your search terms by category or forum, specifying a date range, or searching for posts by username. You can also search the User Tips Library.+
    Maybe that should be retitled: *+I have a question or issue—how do I resolve it?+*
    Just out of curiosity, I wonder if any of these exceptional people can figure out my signature.

  • Is anyone else having problems with Verifying and Repairing Disk permissions?

    Hey folks, every time I try to verify and repair disk permissions lately, this is all I get...
    Verifying permissions for “Macintosh HD”Group differs on “Library/Printers/InstalledPrinters.plist”; should be 80; group is 0.Permissions differ on “Library/Printers/InstalledPrinters.plist”; should be -rw-rw-rw- ; they are -rw-r--r-- .Warning: SUID file “System/Library/CoreServices/RemoteManagement/ARDAgent.app/Contents/MacOS/ARDAg ent” has been modified and will not be repaired.
    I usually get a long list, then repair it, and it seems to keep things clean.
    I'm having trouble with my address book.
    When I move the mouse down the bottom of the page my dock doesn't come up right away, sometimes it won't - I have to command tab to go to another program.
    So I'm wondering if these are related. Thanks for any help!

    Not specifically Sky & Yahoo, but there seem to be quite a few threads with password problems and Yahoo. Is that what you are experiencing. Long thread here:

    And a thread here where Gtj56 came up with a fix that worked for him:

  • Why do I keep having to reenter my password for one of my email accounts?

    Why do I keep having to reenter my password for one of my email accounts?

    Likely because one of the servers (the incoming or outgoing) needs authentication before you can receive or send messages.

    Hello Bo.
    It's possible that you are having a problem with some Firefox add-on that is hindering your Firefox's normal behavior. Have you tried disabling all add-ons (just to check), to see if Firefox goes back to normal?
    Whenever you have a problem with Firefox, whatever it is, you should make sure it's not caused by one (or more than one) of your installed add-ons, be it an extension, a theme or a plugin. To do that easily and cleanly, run Firefox in [http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Safe+Mode safe mode] (don't forget to select ''Disable all add-ons'' when you start safe mode). If the problem disappears, you know it's from an add-on. Disable them all in normal mode, and enable them one at a time until you find the source of the problem. See [http://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Troubleshooting+extensions+and+themes this article] for information about troubleshooting extensions and theme and [https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/kb/Troubleshooting+plugins this one] for plugins.
    If you need support for one of your add-ons, you'll have to contact its author.

  • Why do I keep having macster pop ups?

    Why do I keep having macster pop ups?

    Sometimes a problem with Firefox may be a result of malware installed on your computer, that you may not be aware of.
    You can try these free programs to scan for malware, which work with your existing antivirus software:
    * [http://www.microsoft.com/security/scanner/default.aspx Microsoft Safety Scanner]
    * [http://www.malwarebytes.org/products/malwarebytes_free/ MalwareBytes' Anti-Malware]
    * [http://support.kaspersky.com/faq/?qid=208283363 TDSSKiller - AntiRootkit Utility]
    * [http://www.surfright.nl/en/hitmanpro/ Hitman Pro]
    * [http://www.eset.com/us/online-scanner/ ESET Online Scanner]
    [http://windows.microsoft.com/MSE Microsoft Security Essentials] is a good permanent antivirus for Windows 7/Vista/XP if you don't already have one.
