Delete a file from a NAS

HI
I have NAS connected to my system. Part of it holds many wav files that are 'linked' to my iTunes Library. On the last iTunes/Lion upgrade(?) iTunes did a bit of a runaway option and started trying to move all my wav files into the iTunes music folder. I stopped this and took a few hours to put it all back as it should be.
However... I now have 3 files in a directory on my NAS that have r- - r -- - r-- - as their attributes - while ALL the rest have rw-rw-rw-
Now I want to delete these files and have tried everything i can think of to do so - to no avail.
So - I've tried Finder - Get info: this tells me I have custom access and does not allow me to change the attributes.
I've been on terminal and sudo rm the files, no success
sudo chmod -N -no success
sudo chgrp - no success
and various other commands including removing the chg flags etc - all with no success.
My working assumption is that iTunes 'locked' the files while 'moving' them - and I killed iTunes before it could unlock these three.
Apple support have tried some of the obvious options but wanted me to pay for 'real' support....
So, any ideas...?

Hi venkata reddy,
You wrongly mentioned  system admin instead of content admin
Go to Content administration not in the system administration
if u delete the file manually in the portal  you can go with
go to Content administration  -> KM Content -> go to Particular document -> just tick the check box which doc u want delete -> go to selection -> u will find delete .

  • When using a Seagate 1T external hard drive and Time Machine to back up hourly, if I delete photo files from the Mac hard drive before the next back up, are these retained on the Seagate drive or will they be lost (overwritten) in the next backu in the ne

    Does Time Machine erase previously saved files if, say, photos are deleted from the Macbook upon the next update, or will they be stored indefinately despite the current status of the files stored on the computer? Eg. can I bckup photo files to a Seagate 1T disc and then delete them to make more room on the computer in the knowlwdge that they are always going to be on the Seagate disc? Sorry if this is very elementary but I have not used a back up before like this, and am not sure how successive backups are overlaid or retained. Thanks!!

    TM is not designed to do what you ask. As Allan wrote TM is an incremental backup not an archival solution.
    If you delete a file from the HD it will eventually be removed from the TM backup (if it ever makes it on to the backup at all).
    How long before it is removed depends on a number of factors, TM disk drive size being one factor but not the only one.
    Material that is impossible to replace and is important to you (image files usually fitting that description) need to be backed up to as least one other drive and preferably more for long term storage.

    I have an iMac purchased in May 2011.  OSX Lion 10.7.3.  I deleted backup file from the external hard drive which operates from Time Machine.
    Now, the trash can will not empty some of the files deleted from the backup harddrive.
    The trash contains-- File folder: "Core Services" which contains a locked file: "boot.efi". 
    It will not delete.
    How do I get the trash can empty of these files?

    Yes, the Old Master file has a folder for each year where I find all photos from that specific year. I am attaching a screen shot of the file.
    In the meantime i have managed to download all photos (it did not download any video files though in mpg, avi, 3gp, m4v,mp4 and mov format) to a new iphoto library. Unfortunately the photos are quite mixed and often doubled up. I ma considering to purchase iphoto library which checks all duplicates in iphoto. this will save me a lot of time. What do you think?

  • HT203200 Cannot delete the file from the itunes folder

    I cannont delete the file from the itunes folder because it tells me I need permission to do so.  I am the admin person for the laptop plus I have checked my permissions under the security tab in the files properties.  How do I delete this file to start again?  It downloaded 1.2GB of the file before the error message appeared, so its paid for and all but not looking like I'll get to watch it before the time runs out on the movie being available for me to watch. :-(

    Try deleting the file without iTunes running.
    When you next open iTunes it should then be marked as a missing file and you should be able to delete the entry from iTunes.
    Hope this works

    First you open a File to the specified file, and then you call delete(). Easy
    File file = new File("path/filename");
    file.delete();Of course if you want to make your application cross-platform you will need to build a correct path somehow. Check out the static attributes of the File class to help you (fx. File.separator).

  • Help needed - OS Command foe deleting a file from Appplication server.

    Hi,
    I have requirement, where in i need to delete a file from the application server. It has to be done automatically. I thought of using OS Command for achieving the same. Can anyone help me in achieving it. The OS of my application server system is UNIX.
    Thanks in advance!!
    P.S: Points will be rewarded.

    Hello Sudeep,
    If you define the command for each operating system using transactions SM69 (You can test it with SM49) and then call it using SXPG_COMMAND_EXECUTE which contains a parameter defining the operating system (SY-OPSYS)
    then it does not matter which operating system is running, the function module always calls the correct version of the command.
    So, for example you could define a command 'OS_COMMAND'
    which deleted a file. This would have one version for Dos
    which said 'del', and a second version for unix which said 'rm'.
    The correct command would be specified by the call to SXPG_COMMAND_EXECUTE because the operating system parameter differentiates between the two commands.
