A couple of months ago I decided to compress some of error 1 operation not permitted archive utility my backups to conserve space on my external drive. I'm running OSX 10.7 and arching unable to expand tar.gz operation not permitted the folders didn't seem to be an issue at all. The OSX version of the zip archiver didn't throw any warnings or messages
Unsupported Compression Method 99
when these archives were created.When I went back to try and unarchive them using the same utility it wouldn't work. Now, it throws an error to the effect:Unable to expand "Archive.zip" in "Folder".(Error 1 - Operation not permitted)I've tried
User Account Folder Mac
a number of solutions including the archive into another directory, playing with the permissions, running the zip utility in both 32- and 64-bit modes. I've even moved some of the archives to different versions of OSX and Windows and nothing seems to be working.Can anyone shed light on this issue?ThanksStefan MacBook Pro, Mac OS X (10.7.1), 15" MBP, 11" MBA, Mini Lion Server Posted on Mar 8, 2012 11:09 AM I have this question too Close Q: Zip archive utility error 17 file exists Archives won't unarchive...

I have attempted to recover data from corrupt zip files in the past with zero percent success rate. It appears once zip files get corrupted that chances of recovering anything is very remote.Allan Helpful (0) Reply options Link to this post by Stefan Lehmann, Stefan Lehmann Mar 8, 2012 1:08 PM in response to Stefan Lehmann Level 1 (5 points) Mar 8, 2012 1:08 PM in response to Stefan Lehmann Tell me about it. What I can't figure out is why the Zip utility didn't check the archive and throw an error before closing

as a zip. My guess is the zip file is being corrupted? Or is some setting I need to setup?Most of the files can be fairly large 10-25mb each and anywhere from 1 file up to 1000. Even smaller batches of 1-2 files are throwing this error to some users."Error 1 http://forums.gleamtech.com/4424/error-1-operation-not-permitted - Operation not permitted".If you have any info to help, I would appreciate it! Let me know http://www.tourvista.com/blog/2012/05/for-mac-users-only-how-to-unzip-a-file-fixing-mac-error-1-operation-not-permitted/ if there is anything you need from me. Thanks! Dustin B. 6/28/2012 8:31 AM I should note that the error is being thrown when they have downloaded the file completely and are trying to unzip it. Dustin B. 6/28/2012 8:31 AM I guess you are getting this error on Mac only. Please try to extract the same downloaded zip file on a Windows system to see if it's actually corrupted. Actually error 1 in v3.1, we had improved compatibility with Mac Archive Utility which seems to be picky about zip formats. We had tested on Snow Leopard and Lion and we hadn't noticed any problems. Let me know. Cem Alacayir 6/28/2012 12:24 PM Yes, our clientele is almost 90% MAC based which most errors have been coming from. I don't think they would be keen to switching to a PC though. :)Is there something we can do to improve the compatibility? Dustin B. 6/28/2012 12:31 PM No you misunderstood, Mac compatibility is operation not permitted important for us too and we already fixed the zip issues back in v3.1. Current version is 3.2. I only said you should test the same zip file on Windows (if available) to find out if the zip was corrupted during transmission or if it was only a problem with Mac Archive Utility. I didn't mean switch to Windows :)As I said, with our testings the zip files are extracted without problem on Max OSX Snow Leopard and Lion. So you need to provide more information like the Mac OSX version and the results with other unzippers like Stuff-it on Mac. For instance, I bet you will be able the extract the same zip file from Terminal on Mac. Archive Utility is buggy especially on older Mac OSX versions. Cem Alacayir 6/28/2012 1:10 PM Hi Cem,I hate to say it, but very few of our customers can unzip the files after downloading. The downloads are completing fully. They are all on Mac OSX. All different versions, both SL and Lion. Even if the files are only around 100mb. It's common the zips can reach into the 700+mb range as well. This was a huge selling point for us as zipping up files was taking a huge part of our workflow.If you have access to mac, please do some more testing on larger file sizes. There may be a problem with the sizes?Please let me know any information you find. I need to keep my customers happy and the complaints are rolling in! Appreciate any help!

Fortunately, there's usually a helpful explanation online that shows you a good work-around. This video demos how to get past the "Error 1 - Operation Not Permitted" error that occurs when trying to unzip a zip file created at TourVista.com. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=6-dQQ9U1fs The solution is to use Terminal, a built-in program on the Mac. Open Terminal. You can use the Mac search at the top right and start typing Terminal. It will appear, click on it to open the program. Type "unzip" and a space, then drag/drop the zip file into the Terminal window. Press Enter and the zip file will be unzipped, storing all files on your computer. Your unzipped files will go to your user account folder which you can easily access using Finder.

Were you able to figure this out? freakqnc August 21st, 2012 at 5:43 pm Actually did figure that out in the end… that happens when the zip archive is pass-protected and the default utility doesn't pop out the option to enter a password as programs like BetterZip and other do. So the whole problem got solved when I didn't just double-clicked the archive but when I opened it with a program that supported pass-protected archives. Of course if you forgot the pass of an archive you pass protected in the past (when sent to someone or for own safe keeping) then you are pretty much screwed since there aren't easy ways to recover that archive's password Cheers! 🙂 Leave a Reply Name (required) Mail (required) (will not be published) Website Comment Notify me of followup comments via e-mail Back to top TourVista is a do-it-yourself real estate marketing website.
