The best two file & directory repair utilities nowadays I use are DiskWarrior & Drive Genius. Both are commercial softwares. DiskWarrior is second to none for repairing directory damage (OS 9 to OSX) & this tends to be the most common issue on the OSX system. Whilst Drive Genius has the same function, I do not trust it at all, finding it actually causing problems that DiskWarrior needed to repair. Drive Genius has many other good tools though. Like any multi-tool utility, Drive Genius' has some that are good & some that cannot be trusted.

This is slightly off-topic however.

As for Toast errors, possibly due to a fake or corrupt file or file-type not fully supported in the earlier Toast versions.
