Hi,

I recommend repairing permissions from the recovery partition, not from the OS 
itself.  This does a more thurough job.  To do this, restart your Mac. When you 
hear the start up chime, hold down command R.  Wait about a minute and press 
command F5 to turn VO on.  select disk utility from the table and your all set. 
 When done, go to the apple menu and select restart and you will boot back into 
Mountain Lion.
