Repairing Permissions now broken?

Feedback Type:  Commentary

Contributed by: pendragon Thursday, March 12 2009 @ 07:51 AM PDT

Product Platform: MacOSX

Used Product For: Over One Year

Recommend Product: YES

FWIW:

Heretofore, upon installing an Apple application, I would Repair Permissions and if there were any fixes required, they would stay fixed.

But now that I have installed iTunes 8.1 (and Front Row 2.1.7), I get 27 repairs that recur even when immediately & recursively run.

I attempted a fix while in Safe Boot to no avail.

Is there a fix for this?

I don't imagine this is much of a problem, but I would like this issue put to rest, so any/all suggestions most welcome.

TIA

You're not alone. I noticed the same thing. I tried repairing permissions multiple times but to no avail.

Apparently, the condition is only cosmetic, e.g., it has no adverse consequence. But still....
