[QUOTE="bobtomay, post: 1483684, member: 24160"] What causes what? All the different permissions? Permissions are changed every time you do a software update from Apple - firmware updates, software updates, OS X updates - and don't ask me why, but Apple doesn't update the file it uses to repair permissions yet somehow it knows not to change them back to what they once were. Haven't understood this mentality since my first Mac. They've got a whole list of stuff for you to ignore, why can't they just update the Repair Permissions file - it's beyond my grasp. [/QUOTE]
