Q: Odd warning when Repairing Permissions
I know that since OSX, repairing permissions is not something often talked about. But I figure it must be still useful or Apple would have dropped it from its OS updates.
I've been having a few odd things going on with my computer, mainly in Mail, so I decided to run Repair Permissions. This is what I got:
"Warning: SUID file "System/Library/CoreS...as been modified and will not be repaired."
What the heck does this mean and how was it modified? I have NEVER gone into Terminal Mode and done anything to my System Software.
It fixed a couple of minor things regarding my printers.
What gives?
iMac, OS X Mavericks (10.9), iMac late 2009

Warning: SUID file "System/Library/CoreServices/RemoteManagement/ARDAgent.app/Contents/MacOS/ARDAg ent" has been modified and will not be repaired.
That's just a status message. You can ignore it.
