im new in mac how do i Verify/repair permissions ?

Launch "Disk Utility" (located under the Applications/Utilities folder)

select your hard drive on the left hand side and hit the "verify permissions" button in the lower right and then hit "repair permissions" when that is done...it will take several minutes to do both.
