Hello;
I purchased a MacBook Pro/2.4 GHz/OS 10.5.8 a few months ago and as i've always done with my Macs, try to run Verify and Repair Disk Permissions every couple of weeks via Disk Utility, especially after doing a lot of processing.
But ever since the first time I did this with the new Mac, both the verification and repair processes take a long time (between 3 - 5 minutes each) and the history list always lists a lot of out of place permissions. And then even after I repair these permissions, they still appear when I run Disk Utility, whether I restart or not and even if I run it immediately after they were just repaired. Have attached a screen shot of the repairs the appear in the history window.
What is causing this and is there a remedy for it?
Thanks very much for any help.
