Again,the trash icon appears as empty again

When I drag an item from a pile to the empty trash, its icon keeps as empty, and "empty trash" is not allowed, not normal nor secure ones. It doesn't happen when the item is from desk or folders. I posted another question in this forum on that issue, and I solved it without realizing how (Now I know for sure it was the re-instalation of the last combo update [MacOSXUpdCombo10.6.7]). Why is it happening againg? How can I avoid it?
By the way, the XLab page doesn't have any info on this specific topic.

The problem occurred again. Now I know for sure what solved the problem, it was the re-installation of the last combo update [MacOSXUpdCombo10.6.7]. I posted a new question... no answers yet...

    When I press the + and - buttons, the volume icon appears, but the slider is empty. When I receive a call, I hear it ring, and I can hear the ringtones in the sound menu. However, the message/mail notifications don't make any noise, and I can't hear the sound menu.
    - During a phone call, if I put the conversation on speakers ==> it works and the volume bar reappears. I can control the volume with + and - buttons. But when the conversation is over, the bar disappears again.
    - With the headphones, everything is ok!
    - I also noticed (only a few times) that when I do a silent to ringer mode, the volume slider reappears and works correctly during 2 or 3 seconds, before disappearing again.
    I don't know what is problem,because the speakers work.

  • I can't find the Trash icon anywhere on Mac

    I can't find the Trash icon anywhere on my mac pro. I needed to clean some startup desk space and thought to start with emptying the trash but I can't find it anywhere. I thought it might be hidden so I made the Library visible through typing a code in Terminal, but still can't find it! Please Help!!
    Thanks in advance!

  • Where is the trash icon to delete photos?

    The just-published iPad Portable Genius book by Paul McFedries clearly states: To delete a photo, follow these steps: 1. Tap Photos in the Home screen. The Photo app appears. 2. Locate the Image you want to blow away. For example, if you know the photo is part of a particular event, open that event stack. 3. Tap the doomed photo. The Photos app opens the photo. 4. Tap the screen to reveal the controls. 5. Tape the Delete button (the trash can icon). The Photos app asks you to confirm the deletion. 6. Tap Delete Photo. The Photos app tosses the photo into the trash, wipes its hands, and returns you to the photos.
    My problem is that the trash icon doesn't appear on the screen! It appeared one time a few days ago, so perhaps a downloaded app is causing the glitch. Any ideas, anyone? Thank you so much.

    Photos created on the iPad or detached from emails (for example) can be deleted via a trashcan icon. But photos synced from iTunes have to be deleted from the synced albums (and not directly from the pad)

  • Can't find the Trash Icon in email

    How do I get the trash icon to show on my email on the upper right side?  Right now it only shows the "Move to another folder icon,"  the arrow for reply, forward, print and the icon for writing a new email.  My friends Ipads show these 3 icons and also the trash icon.
    I can't find any settings to display this icon on my email.
    Thanks...

    If you are using the apple built-in mail app , there is no trash icon.
    There most certainly is a trash can icon in the preinstalled mail app on the iPad. I mentioned gmail to the OP because I'm pretty sure that gmail uses an archiving system and no trash can icon appears in that account. Or at least I think that is how gmail on the iPad works.

  • Cannot use the Trash Icon

    Hello!
    I am unable to empty theTrash in Iphoto...I can NOT even use the Trash Icon.
    When I click on Trash Iphoto goes into non respond mode.
    I have to Force Quit and relaunch Iphoto.
    I have A LOT of images in the Iphoto Trash...I know this is the problem.
    Can I fix this?
    Or should I pay someone to do it properly? My Apple Warranty just ran out...figures!!
    Thanks for taking the time to read this and if you can make a suggestion I will appreciate it.
    Have a great night!

    Download iPhoto Library Manager and use its rebuild function. This will create a new library based on data in the albumdata.xml file. Not everything will be brought over - no slideshows, books or calendars, for instance - but it should get all your albums and keywords back.
    Because this process creates an entirely new library and leaves your old one untouched, it is non-destructive, and if you're not happy with the results you can simply return to your old one.  

  • Changing the Trash icon

    I've been able to change any other icons that I feel like on my Mac, but the Trash icon is proving a little resistant to change. I'd like to replace both the empty and full wire basket icons with others of my choosing, but I've been unable to do so, or to locate a topic on these forums that deals with this.

    FIRST BACK UP THE ORIGINAL FILES!!! THAT IS CRUCIAL, IN CASE SOMETHING GOES WRONG!
    Assuming you convert them to .png files, and rename the one to "trashempty.png" and the other to "trashfull.png", the command would be this:
    sudo cp /Users/Gareth/Icons/trashempty.png /System/Library/CoreServices/Dock.app/Contents/Resources/;sudo cp /Users/Gareth/Icons/trashfull.png /System/Library/CoreServices/Dock.app/Contents/Resources/;ls -le@O /System/Library/CoreServices/Dock.app/Contents/Resources/trash*.png
    Post the results of that here, and then restart.
    Use V.K.'s advice. It's easier, more straightforward, and has less risks. I should have recommended something like that right away.
    Good luck!

  • Trash icon always indicates empty

    My trash icon no longer indicates when there are files in it. Is there a setting to recover the "trash full" icon?

    Hi
    I am experiencing wireless connection problem on 4s after ios 8.1 upgrade. The wireless icon appears showing that it's connected but webpages do not load. I have checked my internet connection with other devices and seems to be alright. what to do?
    I have tried reseting the network settings and forgetting my wireless connection and re-connecting to it. I even backed up my phone on itunes and restored it, factory reseted it. Nothing seems to work.
    Also after my upgrade to ios 8.1 my personal hotspot option under cellular data has disappeared.
    Would you please help me out? I would really appreciate it.

    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?

  • How do I change the "trash" icon to "archive" icon in email on my iPhone using iOS7?

    How do I change the "Trash" icon to "Archive" icon as the default setting in email using iPhone iOS7?

    That is very much dependent on your Email account. 
    Go to Settings->Mail,Contacts,Calendars->Accounts->Your Account->Account->Advanced->Move Discarded Messages Into.
    Choose Archive Mailbox.
    It may not be there if its not supported by your email provider.

  • HT203421 I have recently purchased some apps from the app store and after downloading them, the icon that appears in the dock changes to a different icon. It is now the same icon appearing on all newly downloaded apps.  Does anyone know what is happening

    I have recently purchased some apps from the app store and after downloading them, the icon that appears in the dock changes to a different icon. It is now the same icon appearing on all newly downloaded apps.  Does anyone know what is happening here? Even updating an older game app resulted in the original game icon changing to the new identical icon that all new apps are appearing with.  This new icon is like a page with a ruler, pencil and paintbrush. Any tips on how to stop this or how to revert to the icon as it appears on the app store would be appreciated.

  • I am having issues with streaming music from iTunes on my MacBook Pro to my audio system through AirPlay.  Works perfectly with my iPod Touch.  The AirPlay icon appears irregularly in iTunes and when selected doesn't connect.  Running latest IOS software.

    I am having issues with streaming music from iTunes on my MacBook Pro to my audio system through AirPlay.  Works perfectly with my iPod Touch.  The AirPlay icon appears irregularly in iTunes and when selected doesn't connect.  Running latest IOS software.

    Try:
    - Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
    Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
    least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.
    - Unsync all music and resync
    - Reset all settings      
    Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
    All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.
    - Restore from backup. See:                                 
    iOS: How to back up           
    - Restore to factory settings/new iOS device.
    If still problem, make an appointment at the Genius Bar of an Apple store since it appears you have a hardware problem.

    No, I do not want to "factory reset" my iPod. No I do not wish to do anything crazy long or hard to fix this. 
    That may be necessary, It is not what you want to do/not do but what is required to resolve your problem.
