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

Colin R.

I cannot delete a file from the documents folder. I can move it to the trash and then empty it, but when I go back to the documents folder, the file is still there.
Gay,
I wonder what your computing environment is. Is your account being administrated by another account? Are you working in an account subject to "Parental Controls"?

Cannot delete .PDF files from a shared folder.
Hello,
I am having issues with deleting/renaming PDF files!
Permissions is not an issue as even logged in as the Network Administrator of the Domain, I still can't delete the file.
The error message I'm recieving is: cannot delete xxxx.pdf It is being used by another person or program. Close any programs that might be using this file and try again.
There are only 1 or 2 users that would have access to the files and neither of them are using them. I can also reset the security permissions for the file and take ownership, but even after doing these things it doesn't make a difference?
I've tried various unlocking tools (Unlocker) and none of them report that the file is open or that there are any locks on them. This only happens with PDF files. If I reboot the sever the problem will go away, but this server needs to be 99.999% of the
time!
Help please!Hi,
Windows is somehow accessing Thumbs.db during the time of the folder move/delete attempt. Please go into Folder options > View > Always show icons, never thumbnails to check if you can delete .PDF files.
For more detailed information, please refer to the thread below:

Cannot delete a file from the desktop.
There is a PDF file named 29cfa30-859968770702291.pdf on my desktop that I tried to delete. When I drag it to the trash, a dialogue box appears that says that the file cannot be deleted. What's up with this? Don't know what the file is and can't even do a "get info" on it.
Restart your Mac and attempt to delete it again.

Ipad mini cannot delete unwanted app from the purchase list
Ipad mini cannot delete unwanted app from the puchase list . too many app there
You can't permanently delete any items from your purchase history, but you should be able to hide them via your computer's iTunes : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4919 - if your iPad is on iOS 7, then after hiding them on your computer you may need to log out of your account on your iPad by tapping on your id in Settings > iTunes & App Store and then log back in for them to be hidden in the Purchased tab in the App Store app on it (the last time I hid an app I needed to do that).

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? -

Delete a file from the KM in a Web Dynpro application
Hello,
We need to delete a file from the KM in a Web Dynpro application.
We have a file name (filename.txt) and its path (/documents/Test/), how can we completely delete the file from the KM?
Thanks,
GilHi 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 .

Using the desktop slideshow, I have added a file from dropbox for the slideshow. If I delete the dropbox file, does that delete the file from the list on the slideshow? Do I need to leave the file on the computer itself rather than in the dropbox and then delete it from the dropbox?
If you are going to delete the file from Dropbox, you will need the file on your computer.
You will probably need to put the file in Library/Screen Savers -
Unable to delete a file from the downloads list of...
i am an e7 user. I was recently downloading a couple of videos at the same time when my phone hanged and had to be restarted. When it did restart, most of the files had to be redownloaded. All except one. The downloads list claims that the file has been saved. The video plays bt isnt completely downloaded.
The problem now is that i cant delete the video through the file manager. The error msg says web:already in use.. When i tried deleting the file from the downloads list of the web browser, there was a similar msg.
So how do i remove this file from my phone??
I tried downloading a couple of file managing softwares bt that didnt really help....
Solved!
Go to Solution.Retry after clearing the Browser Cache.. If that does not solve.. Reboot the phone and try again...

iTunes 11 previously imported a video file, which I loaded on to my iPod Nano, but I removed the file from the iTunes library and now it won't (re-)import the same video.
I'm using 2 PCs, each with video files (.MP4) on their respective hard drives, and also one external drive with other video files on that I move between the two devices.
iTunes on one PC will (sometimes!) let me add video content from the external hard drive, which is clearly iTunes-compatible, because I can then copy it over to my iPod Nano. On the other PC, I couldn't load that same video from the external hard drive. But if I copied that same video on to the PC's internal hard drive first, then iTunes would let me import it. That was yesterday - now iTunes is refusing to load any files from the internal or external hard drive(s).
Any thoughts or suggestions, please?So I tried copying the files from the external hard drive to a USB drive. I could import the video files from the USB drive!
So then I tried importing the same files on to my PC's internal hard drive again. I could import the video files from the internal hard drive!
So then I tried to import the very same files that failed to load on the very same PC previously. I could now import them!
I still can't import from the external hard drive directly, though.
I really don't think I like the process of importing things into iTunes very much... any suggestions on what's causing any of this behaviour would be very interesting.
