Tiger seems to have broken Carbon Copy Cloner (CCC) 2.3 because of some authentication issue. The immediate fix was to run it is root, but that brings its own dangers. I combined the method suggested by two forum threads at the Bombich.com forums in order to fix a problem some people had with the text:
- In the Finder, open the window of the folder where you keep CCC.
- Launch Terminal (in /Applications/Utilities).
- Type bash --noprofile and press Return.
- Type sudo open, and then press the Space Bar.
- Drag CCC into the Terminal window from the Finder -- that will complete the line with the full path.
- Hit Return and, at the prompt, enter your admin password -- your typing will not show. Hit Return after typing your password.
I hope this helps.
