Hello Lynn and all:
Hahaha. The challenge of lists like these you will get two answers
which are conflicting (smile).
Your question was ... is it necessary? No, it is not absolutely
necessary. Is it a good idea? If it limits the confusion that may
result from apps being open then by all means close them all so you
only have to keep track of the one activity.
And, if it assists in providing you with a little piece of mind ...
good heavens close them and run permissions.
Not a black and white answer I know though somehow I get the feeling
this is the answer which will produce the best results (grin).
Good luck and let us know how it goes.

Hi everyone. If you are having problems with your system and you
want to repair permissions to try and fix them, is it necessary to
close all apps first? I noticed that last time I repaired
permissions, it did fix a bad Safari problem, but when I looked at
the log, it showed that certain files were not able to be opened or
something like that. I'm going to try repairing permissions again
just as a routine maintenance thing, but this time maybe I would
turn Voiceover off first? I just wanted to know what you all
thought. I don't exactly understand what repairing permissions
does, but I noticed that when I had to force quit Safari because it
was acting up on several occasions, I repaired permissions and it
made Safari like new again, so it does indeed work sometimes.
I crashed the new iTunes already this morning, so thought I'd
repair permissions just to make sure things were on the right track
for this new version.
Thanks in advance for any insights.
