Hi again Rick, I just noticed that you thought the Permissions differ were due to: >> Since downloading iOS7 software for the iPhone 4 Just to clear your understanding... No they have nothing to do with iOS 7. They are appearing since the iTunes 11.1 update.
Apple changed the way they create ".nib" files, and Disk Utility hasn't been updated yet to recognise the change. I would imagine Apple will correct this in due time. The 'problem'... which is actually not a problem' :-) is in Disk Utility, not in iTunes. Hope that clarifies things for you.
