There are some apps on my iMac that I want to make sure don't have online access, because I know some apps have access when you don't know about it.

I'm working with Mavericks, iMovie 10.0.5 on OSX 10.9.4. I want to lower a small section of sound within a video clip without having to lower sound for the entire clip. I could do this in the previous iMovie version. How can I do this now?

iMovie '11, Mac OS X (10.6.8)
I can't adjust the sound level on my iMac keyboard? The screen just disappears but the sound level remains the same

I inherited a 3+ year old MacBook (2GHz Intel Core Duo, 2GB RAM) that was working fine until I dropped it! After that, it was very slow to start up and wouldn't open some applications, so I bought a new hard drive and reinstalled the OS and now it's back on its proverbial feet. The problem is, since it was actually not my computer to begin with, when I booted up from the 10.6 SL DVD, I opted to do a full install from the disc and re-register it under my name. Then I used migration assistant to transfer all my applications and data from a Time Machine backup. Now all the disk permissions are off and I'm locked out of some applications and folders. I tried using DiskWarrior, OnyX, and the SL DVD to repair permissions, but they never actually repaired, just detected.

I have a brand new macbook pro, 2012 standard version, with Maverick. It has 8 gigs of ram.
I have a number of problems with it and I'll do my best to explain one -what happens when I am online and scrolling using my trackpad. The words get lighter as I scroll, shimmering or flickering, until I stop. Using Chrome, the blue links actually bleed into the rest of the words. It is barely noticeable if I use a wired mouse with it. (I don't have a wireless one) but using the trackpad is pretty bad.
It also does with my MAIL program if I'm scrolling through the messages using my trackpad but doesn't do it when using my mouse. Is this normal?
I am facing a problem with the Messages App. The gmail account does not go online in the app (permanently stays disconnected). The same gmail accounts work on the Mail app. Are there some separate settings required?

I can't tag applications in Mavericks. I looked at the permissions but everything is grey, I can't change them. However, before Mavericks I had no problem tagging apps.

Every time after repairing I've got this :
wrong permissions "Applications/Safari.app/Contents/Resources/Safari.help/Contents/Resources/inde x.html", should be lrwxr-xr-x, now -rwxr-xr-x "private/etc/aliases" should be lrwxr-xr-x, now -rwxr-xr-x

when I try to securely empty the trash it tells me some items are locked and asks to continue with all? If I indicate yes, it stops and says I don't have permissions for all files. the files that remain are mainly old apps and .mp3 from iTunes.How do I fix these permissions to get them deleted?

On attached volumes I cannot save files. I recently used OS X migration assistant to move to my new iMac but the volumes that I used on the old system will not allow me to save to them (the os says it's a permissions problem). Short of renaming the new computer the same name as the old one.

I just got a new Imac last week. When I try to go into Command + R the repair mode it looks like it changed to a reinstallation mode which is what I don't want. Is there another way to run disk permissions or disk repair in Mavericks?

2 issues:"Permissions differ on “Applications/Safari.app/Contents/Resources/Safari.help/Contents/Resources/inde x.html" should be lrwxr-xr-, they are rwxr-xr-rACLU found but not expected in 3places "private/var/root/library/preferences", "private/var/root/library" and "private/var/root"
Also when I restart it right after login, now the Apple ID Agent message ask the keychain password to make some changes? I have run the DU from an external HD if fixes it, but then am back to square one. Apparently and according to Apple: "Mac OS X: Disk Utility's Repair Disk Permissions messages that you can safely ignore", but not true as I can't connect anymore and can't work as my MacBook Pro is **** slow...
when I went to enable root I needed to install for management content applications for my website and setting up myphpadmin?!? I've tried to fix it, but failed, the last thing I've done was to go on the recovery partition's utilities terminal to resetpassword as I know that it resets the ACL, home directory... But it's still running since 2 hours, well I think that one failed as well...
Time machine back up files will not delete from my iMac trash as i do not have permissions i have owned the computer from new

I moved the time machine back ups to the trash but now can not delete them. Ihave tried holding the option key whilst selecting the empty trash but this did not work. It states i do not have permissions for files

I'm seeing this show up when I do a permissions repair in Snow Leopard 10.6.2
Permissions differ on "usr/share/derby", should be drwxr-xr-x, they are lrwxr-xr-x
Repaired "usr/share/derby"
It shows up each time I do this. Anyone else seeing this?
i accidentally set permissions in the Mac HD Info window for Everyone to "No Access". of course it locked up. i have an external drive plugged in running Time Machine. i understand i can use that to restore...?
I ran disk utility - it failed because it could not locate the clip art folder in word (?wha?) repair disk permissions ran for 24 hours and couldn't complete. anyway - I know there is an easy solution here - i just want to be sure i'm doing it correctly so i dont make it worse than it already is...would some kind soul please provide me step-by-step instructions to either use Time Machine to repair - or something.
I repaired permissions earlier and I keep getting these that won't be repaired. Is it anything to worry about? Any idea what the issue is?

So I am not sure what happened. But recently all of a sudden anytime I go to highlight something it does not show it being highlighted.
I recently removed the program sideeffects from my computer that puts color icons back in the finder as I thought that was the cause of the issue but it never went away.

I have a Macbook Pro (recently purchased, used) and it's running OS X Mavericks 10.9.4. I downloaded Java to use for a specific program. When I run the program, my computer shows this message:
I then have to go over to Settings < Security & Privacy and select "open anyway"
I know the reason my Mac is blocking it is because it's from an unidentified developer. I'd like to change the preferences to "allow apps downloaded from anywhere" but as you can see in the screenshot, the area is gray. How can I do this?
Also while I'm on this topic, Java is not recognized on my computer. It doesn't show up in Finder. When I finally bypass all the stuff above to open my program, Java finally opens, but disappears completely again when I close the program.
If I try keeping it on the dock and opening it again, Terminal shows up.

Can I customize the layout of Launchpad? I've deleted apps from my applications folder but they're still in Launchpad with an unsightly question mark icon. Is there a way to fix this?

I know this question has been asked and answered but when I read the answer in previous threads, it makes no sense to me. It gives a terminal command that says killall;dock. How can that fix a problem that involves the launchpad.
I had lots of apps in launchpad now I have fewer than half.I know the apps are actually in the applications folder but why does the icon not appear in Launchpad and how do I get them back.

I have a late 2010 Macbook Pro. I do a lot of Audio Production and Post Production work on my MBP. I have owned Macs for years and am almost always able to use, update, upgrade, install, uninstall, reconfigure, test, diagnose, and fix them on my own UNTIL recently. About a year ago I bought an SSD from OWS and a Optical Bay HD Kit for installing a 2nd drive. I removed my Optical and Installed a New 1GB SATA Hard Drive using the kit in that bay. I have no problems with that Drive that I'm aware of. I removed my old 500 GB Hitachi SATA and replaced it with a New OWS Mercury Extreme SSD. I have no problems with that drive either, that I am able to find through extensive testing. I upgraded the RAM to the full 8 GB. The factory bracket that holds the RAM in place doesn't work well (at least not anymore, if ever they did) as the tabs don't hold the ram in tight. I wedged tiny bits of cardboard in to hold it tight, it seems to do the trick. I did a clean install, not from a backup. Upon the hardware upgrades and clean install the MBP became much faster. It was very responsive and seems to really work nicely. I began installing my industry third party applications such as Logic Pro, Ableton, NI Maschine, Traktor, etc.
Everything worked great except that Ableton Live 9 then started not launching the GUI upon initialization occasionally. Then it got so bad it was inhibiting my workflow. I did a clean install again. No luck. Then over the period of the next few months the MBP began lagging sometimes on initialization of apps, and just acting a bit quirky but just occasionally while mostly working well. Then other apps began to follow suit and would just stall with the 'application not responding' in the dock icon. This would all happen randomly. I then noticed in the morning upon first opening and powering on, the apps would open. But they would not open more than a few times in succession. So about 3 weeks ago I did another clean install, upgraded to Mavericks upon making sure all the apps are compatible with the platform.
I then updated the OWS SSD HD with new firmware, I updated all the apps on my computer. Then I repaired permissions many many times, and repaired all the drives from the Disk Utility. Upon no change in the MBP behavior I ran the hardware testing from the install disk with no bad results. So then I ran it in loop mode for 18 hours. It shows all hardware is working properly. I reset the PRAM and the SMC. I ran terminal command tests, I ran the console. I booted from another MBP and ran the Disk repair from it with nothing showing as bad. I have spent hours and hours on forums with no luck. I consulted an IT who works for NBC and he was stumped. I finally took it in to a Genius Bar week before last where they proceeded to do a lot of what I had done with the addition of running their in store repair software which I didn't have. They kept it and ran tests in the back in loop mode for a few days. They then called me and said it was ready for pickup and that there was nothing wrong with it.

After my last OS update, all every time I open an app, it opens a window (where I last left it) and I have to click that away before going to the folder I wan to open. Well, it does not drive me crazy but is really annoying.
View 5 Replies View RelatedA few weeks ago, I was installing a new SSD into a 2009 MBP. I reinstalled Snow Leopard from the disc that came with the computer and proceeded to upgrade to Mavericks. you cannot install the iLife applications (namely, iPhoto) from the Applications disc once you upgrade past Snow Leopard. Is there a way I can still install these applications without having to buy them through the app store?
