Can't get rid of the file in the trash

There is a very odd file in my trash and I cannot remove it. I've tried using Secure Empty Trash as well as holding down the Option key and also reformatting my hard drive by doing Erase and Install. Is there anyway i can remove it or does anyone have this weird file in their trash too?

    Back up all data, then boot from your recovery partition (command-R at startup), launch Disk Utility, select your startup volume, and run Repair Disk (not Repair Permissions.) If any problems are found, repeat. Then reboot as usual.

  • Desktop Manager "disconnected" and I can't get rid of the error message

    I just purchased a Blackberry Curve 8530, running v5 software, my computer is Windows 7. I installed the 501_b073_multilanguage software that I downloaded from Blackberry's website. When I launch the Desktop manager I get this message: "Before you begin, verify that your current BlackBerry device is connected to your computer." The troubleshooting posts I've seen on this forum include many tips (the ones I've tried are below). One in particular I can't do is "The desktop manager is showing "disabled."
    -Make sure that the user has gone into the desktop manager and selected options > connection settings > detect."
    ... because I can't get rid of the error message dialoge box, and I can't click on the options menu in the BB Desktop Manager.
    I have tried the following:
    uninstalled it and reinstalled it twice - 2nd uninstall was a "hard" uninstall where I deleted the registry files by hand
    moved the cable to the USB port in the back (after trying both the ports in the front) of the computer
    restarted the computer many times
    hard booted the phone by removing the battery
    plugged in, removed, and replugged in the phone.
    Also:
    The phone is installing correctly when I plug it in, but the software still doesn't seem to see it.
    In the Device Manager, the BlackBerry is showing up under Portable Devices. Double-clicking on it gives me the reassurring "This device is working properly." message.
    The Com1 port is working properly also, according to the Device Manager.
    Double-clicking on the device manager icon to get the properties shows that the Com1 port is "disconnected" -- when I try to configure it it just pops back to the disconnected state.
    If someone has an idea or something I haven't tried I'd sure appreciate it!!
    Thanks!

    Solved!

    Okay, folks, after a 3 1/2 hour phone call with a (very patient) telephone support person at Blackberry, here's what I learned.
    You can check your USB drivers this way:
    Plug in your phone into your USB drive. Assuming your Blackberry is "seen" by your computer...
    Go into the Device Manager on your computer (control panel)
    Expand the Universal Serial Bus controllers item on the bottom of the list
    Right-click on BlackBerry Smartphone and choose Properties
    Click on the Driver tab
    Click on the Driver Details button
    You should see one driver. I saw two. The one the BlackBerry likes is the RimUsb one.
    So here's what NOT to do: We tossed the entire driver that was the "extra". This effectively made using my mouse and keyboard impossible, as they are USB, and sent my poor husband into the basement to find a million-year-old keyboard (and then a mouse) with the old fashioned kind of connectors (PS2). Bleh. Don't do that.
    Here's what I did that worked (not saything this will work for you -- this modifies the Registry so better do a system backup with that backup and restore if you're nervous about this sort of thing):
    From the start menu, choose run, and type regedit to get into the Registry editor.
    Follow this file path: Computer, HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE, SYSTEM, CurrentControlSet, Control, Class
    Click on: {36FCE60-C465-11CF-8056-4445535400000}
    If there's an item on the right called "UpperFilters", delete it. (see pictures)
    Hope this helps someone.

  • Can't get rid of the beeping noise!(SOLVED)

    Hey guys, so I can't get rid of the beeping noise of my laptop.
    I have an Acer Aspire 722. Every time I plug or unplug the power, it beeps. And the really annoying one, everytime I backspace, it beeps.
    I've tried going into alsa and muting beep. I put !pcspkr in modules in rc.conf.
    I don't know what else to do?
    Help will be extremely appreciated. Thanks.
    edit: unrelated but something I want to resolve. I get these debugging messages, and found to get rid of them I have to set loglevel= 3 in grub. How do I do that? (SOLVED)
    Also, I'm having an issue with x-org. Every time I try to download it, it says it is missing a file. So I figured maybe it is a mirror problem so I went to change my mirror. Pacman keeps trying to use my old mirror even when my mirrorlist does not have that mirror commented out. I also checked pacman.conf and no mirror is being loaded in there with a server=mirror syntax.
    Not sure what is happening?

  • Can I get rid of the underlined hyperlink and just have roll-over links?

    In iWeb 2009, can I get rid of the underlined hyperlink and just have roll-over links?

    You have to put them on the server where you are publishing your site to. Where are you hosting your site? If it's a MobileMe account then you have two options:
    1 - put the photos in a folder, name it "Pics" and put that folder in your iDisk/Pictures folder. Then use the following URL: http://homepage.mac.com/YourMMe_Account_Name/.Pictures/Pic/FileName (don't forget the period before Pictures).
    2 - put the "Pics" folder with image files in your iDisk/Web/Sites folder and use the following URL: http://web.me.com/YourMMe_Account_Name/FileName.
    If you're hosting on a 3rd party server it would depend on if you're using a domain name or not. I'm not familiar with 3rd party servers so Wyodor, Ethmoid or someone that is will need to point the way.

    You may have to do this several times.
    Saw this solution on another post about an iPad in a school environment. Might work on your iPad so you won't lose everything.

    ‘iPad is disabled’ fix without resetting using iTunes
    Today I met my match with an iPad that had a passcode entered too many times, resulting in it displaying the message ‘iPad is disabled – Connect to iTunes’. This was a student iPad and since they use Notability for most of their work there was a chance that her files were not all backed up to the cloud. I really wanted to just re-activate the iPad instead of totally resetting it back to our default image.
    I reached out to my PLN on Twitter and had some help from a few people through retweets and a couple of clarification tweets. I love that so many are willing to help out so quickly. Through this I also learned that I look like Lt. Riker from Star Trek (thanks @FillineMachine).
    Through some trial and error (and a little sheer luck), I was able to reactivate the iPad without loosing any data. Note, this will only work on the computer it last synced with. Here’s how:
    1. Configurator is useless in reactivating a locked iPad. You will only be able to completely reformat the iPad using Configurator. If that’s ok with you, go for it – otherwise don’t waste your time trying to figure it out.
    2. Open iTunes with the iPad disconnected.
    3. Connect the iPad to the computer and wait for it to show up in the devices section in iTunes.
    4. Click on the iPad name when it appears and you will be given the option to restore a backup or setup as a new iPad (since it is locked).
    5. Click ‘Setup as new iPad’ and then click restore.
    6. The iPad will start backing up before it does the full restore and sync. CANCEL THE BACKUP IMMEDIATELY. You do this by clicking the small x in the status window in iTunes.
    7. When the backup cancels, it immediately starts syncing – cancel this as well using the same small x in the iTunes status window.
    8. The first stage in the restore process unlocks the iPad, you are basically just canceling out the restore process as soon as it reactivates the iPad.
    If done correctly, you will experience no data loss and the result will be a reactivated iPad. I have now tried this with about 5 iPads that were locked identically by students and each time it worked like a charm.
    ~~~~~~~~~~~~~
    Try it and good luck. You have nothing more to lose if it doesn't work for you.
     Cheers, Tom

  • HOW CAN I GET RID OF THE EVENTS CATEGORY?

    There are days that I will add only one picture to iPhoto and it becomes an event. Every time I add a new picture to iPhoto 8 I get a new event. This past week I have been renaming some albums and adding new albums and folders and that has had a very undesired result of now telling me I have 26,624 items in 3,071 events. That, 26,624 number, incidentally, is the same number of photos I have in iPhoto.
    If I try to delete an event, I find I am also deleting the pictures in that event from my main iPhoto library. I have also noticed that the events in my events area are randomly numbered, not in any sort of order.
    HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
    Also, iPhoto 8 does not recognize my camera (Canon PowerShot S5IS) when I try to add photos to iPhoto.

    cmiles:
    Welcome to the Apple Discussions. You can't get rid of the Events mode as it's the basic container feature of iPhoto which is organized by date. You can always drag that single event onto another one in the Event mode to join them, thus getting rid of the single event. You can also do that in the Photos mode, with Event names displayed so it's like the old rolls, by dragging a photo or photos into another event.
    Regarding the problem of the camera not being recognized that's a tougher problem to fix. A workaround is to use Image Capture to upload the photos to a folder on the desktop and then import the folder into iPhoto.
    One user fixed his similar problem with an Archive and Install of Leopard and a reinstall of iPhoto from the disk it came on. As I said, not as easy a fix.
    TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.
    I've created an Automator workflow application (requires Tiger), iPhoto dB File Backup, that will copy the selected Library6.iPhoto file from your iPhoto Library folder to the Pictures folder, replacing any previous version of it. It's compatible with iPhoto 08 libraries and Leopard. iPhoto does not have to be closed to run the application, just idle. You can download it at Toad's Cellar. Be sure to read the Read Me pdf file.

    Windows users having trouble with their iPods should locate a Mac user. In many cases when an iPod won't show up on a PC that it will show up on the Mac. Then it can be restored. When the PC user returns to his computer the iPod will be recognized by the PC, reformatted for the PC, and usable again. By the way, it works in reverse too. A Mac user often can get his iPod back by connecting it to a PC and restoring it.
    Tips
    a. It does not matter whether the format is completed or not, the key is to erase (or partly) the corrupted firmware files on the Hard Drive of the iPod. After that, when the iPod re-connected with a computer, it will be recognized as an fresh external hard drive, it will show up on the iTunes 7.
    b. It is not a difficult issue for a Mac user to find a window base computer, for a PC user, if they can’t find any Mac user, they can go to a nearest Apple Shop for a favor.
    c. You may need to switch around the PC and Mac, try to do several attempts between “Format” and “Restore”

    I do backup with iCloud.  I can't wait until the new iMac is available so that I can once again have my files in more than 1 location without needing to rely solely on the cloud. 
    I also rely on iTunes and my MacBook and Time Machine as well as backing up to iCloud. I know many users know have gone totally PC free, but I chose to use iCloud merely as my third backup.
    I assume that the restore would result in my ability to open Pages and Numbers and fix the problem with deleting apps, but this would also mean that if my Numbers documents still exist solely within the app and are just not on iCloud for some reason that they would be gone forever.  Is that right?
    In a word, yes. In a little more detail.... When you restore from an iCloud backup, you must erase the device and start all over again. There is no other way to access the backup in iCloud without erasing the device. Consequently, you are starting all over again. Therefore, it would also be my assumption that Pages and Numbers will work again and that the deleting apps issues would be fixed as well.
    If the documents are not in the backup, and you do not have a backup elsewhere, the documents could be gone forever.

    That toolbar/ct plugin seems to cause problems for all who install it!
    Close Safari, then locate and delete the following files and it should be gone:

    How can I get rid of the dark area on top one third of my iphone screen which spoils my background image?
    It seems this problem is caused by the software to increase the readibility of upper letters (clock battery etc.) It be nice to leave us the control of choosing background letter color too if we are using brighter images or darker images.
    I'm using iphone 4s and it appeared after I updated to new patch. 7.1.1.

    Hi,
    According to your descriptioin, I don't think this is system problem, it should be Intel driver problem. It would be contact Intel to confirm this issue whether this is their driver problem.
