Help with permissions please..

I made a permission change on a directory and am getting all these errors. How do I undo the directory permissions change?

MacBook Pro, iOS 6.1.2

Below are the permission error's I'm getting. Each time I try to repair them (7 times now) I get confirmation that they have been repaired yet when I check again I get the exact same errors. Why is the rapair utility telling me they have been repaired correctly when they obviously have not?


How do I undo the permissions change I made that's caused this in the first place?

Those aren't actually permission changes; instead, the structure of those packages has changed since the repair permissions database was compiled. Unless you're having trouble, just ignore them; running permissions more than once per issue you experience with the computer is a waste of time.
