Can't Delete Empty Folder in Deleted Items

Running Outlook 2013 on a Windows 8.1 machine. Exchange 2010 on SBS 2011 platform.
I have an empty folder within the deleted items folder. I can manually delete all messages within the deleted items but I cannot get that empty sub folder deleted. My permissions are set to "owner". I'm getting a message that says, "outlook
is synchronizing local changes made to items in this folder. You cannot remove this folder until the synchronization with the server is complete". I've done shift+F9 in both the deleted items and the sub folder and that hasn't helped.
Please advise.

Hello,
I recommend you check if owa has the issue. If the issue doesn't occur on owa, the issue may be related to outlook.
I find a thread that has similar error for your reference.

Cannot delete empty page without deleting others

I have a page with headers and footers and two columns. When I try to add another page or paste a similar one from another document, it creates a new empty page in between them. So I have one section with one page of content and one empty one and another section with the new page with content. Whenever I try to delete the empty page, it deletes the one before it as well. I have switched on the invisibles and see that it has inserted a section break at the top of the empty page. However, if I delete this, my new page is gone. If I change it to a page break and try and get rid of the empty page, then the new (or pasted) page also gets deleted. I am at my wit's end. I am an Apple fan and recently changed my business to iMac and use iWorks, but did not expect silly issues like this.
Please help!

• I'm sure that you aren't using iWorks which doesn't exists.
• Insert a section break in the pair of "grouped pages" this will cut the group in two separate pages.

Can't locate Private folder to delete files

After getting a warning that my startup disk was almost full, I discovered that the reason was one very large folder that contained most of the contents of a previous computer. I had put it there three years ago when I bought this MacBook and forgotten all about it. The folder showed up on the left side of the finder and on the desktop. I put both icons in the trash and emptied it. The folders disappeared but the disk remained almost full.
Disk Inventory X tells me that I now have 129 GB in a folder called Private. Inside that folder, Var contains the 129 GB, then Log has 126.6 GB, and finally system.log.1 (89.1 GB) and system.log.0 (35.7 GB) are the apparent culprits. I don't know how I can have 124.8 GB of messages, but given that the hard disk has a capacity of 150 GB, this is obviously the reason it is still almost full. Somehow my deletion of this morning seems to have generated a mass of log messages in its wake.
But how to erase them? I can't find any hint of their existence in Finder or Spotlight.

I've solved this. After I posted I followed a suggested item that came up on the right of the screen and discovered all I had to do was *Go to Folder*. Type /private/var/. This led me to the rogue files (which in fact were not created today, but recently) and delete them.
Of course, I don't know what created them in the first place, so I may not be out of the woods yet.

Can't re-import folder after deleting it

I deleted a CD off ITunes because it wouldn't play in ITunes, but would play on my IPod. I tried to re-import it but when I select the folder, nothing happens. The songs won't upload. No error message, just when I click select folder, the window closes. All the songs are in the folder and I can still play the tracks in other audio programs. I did make it so I had complete permission, but there may be something else I can do. I have restarted my computer, shut down ITunes, tried importing one by one, and many other things. This is from a burned CD, not purchased from ITunes. Anyone have any ideas?

Those are the classic symptoms of iTunes being strict/finicky/incompetent (pick your own interpretation) about slight variations in MP3 formats.
The problem can usually be corrected by treating the files with a 3rd party tag cleanup program such as MP3 Validator, and then adding them to iTunes.

Would synchronizing with an empty folder delete what's on my zen xt

Hi,
I'm having problems transfering my songs from my zen xtra to my pc (long overdue backup). It stalls midway through the process saying there is not enough disk space (despite having 250GBs free!)
The only thing I'm yet to try is synching my player with a folder. I've downloaded the zen synch manager and have wmp0 to synch also. However, I'm concerned that synching with an empty folder will delete all my songs.
I'm running on the original 60GB Zen Xtra firmware and have mediasource organizer 5.
Any help would be HUGELY appreciated.
THanks
Tom

With the Yahoo Firefox version -- 16.0.2 -- how do I delete a folder, empty or with items in it?

I'm able to delete book mark items within a folder, but unable to delete an entire folder with items in it, or an empty folder. It appears that this version is too recent for any of the previous help items to be of any assistance.
My Mac Desktop operating system is 10.7.5. The Firefox version (for Yahoo) is 16.0.2. If the JAVA info is important, I do not appear to have JAVA. I gather Apple stopped loading it around the time I got my desktop.

On a Mac you probably need to do this in the right pane in the Bookmarks and History Manager (Library)
*Bookmarks > Show All Bookmarks
You can't remove any of the three main bookmarks folders (Bookmarks Toolbar, Bookmarks Menu, Unsorted), but you should be able to remove any folders that you've created yourself via the right-click context menu in the right pane in the Bookmarks Manager (Library).

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 you delete [empty] a single file or folder from "Trash"?

How do you delete [empty] a single file or folder from "Trash"?
Can you "securely delete" just 1 item?

A dangerous and incorrect shell command has been posted in this thread.
NEVER empty the Trash in the shell (Terminal.) NEVER put anything in the Trash unless you intend to delete it immediately. If you do put something in the Trash and change your mind about deleting it, move it out or use the Put Back contextual menu item. Then empty the remaining items in the Trash as usual.

Folder Preferences Won't Let me Uncheck Delete This Folder (if emptied)

When using Preferences, Windows Settings, Folders: When using the 'Delete' action, I can't uncheck 'Delete the Folder (if emptied).'
I'm trying to simply delete the contents of a folder on a regular basis, but with this setting checked, it will also delete the folder.
If I use a different 'Action', like 'Replace', I AM able to uncheck 'Delete the Folder (if emptied), but that's not the Action I want to use.
Has anyone else seen this? Am I missing something?

> I'm trying to simply delete the contents of a folder on a regular basis,
> but with this setting checked, it will also delete the folder.
Yes, what else would you expect? You have an item that says "this folder
- delete", so it deletes the folder and all of its contents. That's
exactly the behavior I'd expect...
If you need the folder to exist, simply recreate it in a second item.

Deleting an empty folder

Hi,
Hi,
I have an empty folder in the trash which I have been trying to delete using all the various methods that I have been able to find so far. Just using the standard "empty Trash" function under Finder gives the following message, "This operation cannot be completed because the item (and then) "-NNNN over 000FS+ Private Data" is locked. I have checked the permissions - all OK. It does NOT show as being locked. The operating system is OS 10.3.9

Mike Hewitt

My empty folder won't delete, even though I have full admin priveleges?

I have been trying to get rid of this folder that i created not too long ago, the folder is now empty but I am unable to delete it. when i right click>move to trash it prompts me for my password, which i then enter and receive this frustrating message: "The operation can’t be completed because you don’t have permission to access some of the items." I have also tried to command+delete which doesn't work. I have run a permissions repair with disk utility with no luck.
I just want to delete a folder! gaahh! Please help! Very frustrated.
Trevor

thanks for the reply;
I checked the info and "Trevor(Me)", "staff", and "everyone" all have read & write priveleges. As for the ownership, when "Trevor (Me)" is highlighted and i click on the gear the "makes this user owner" option is visible but greyed out (unclickable), and that option is not visible at all for "staff" or "everyone".
Problem still persists =(

If you do not lock that folder immediately after deleting all the contents, it will simply populate again (Resume - a "feature" in Lion). You do that by doing a Get Info (highlight folder and press Command + I keys), unlock the lock at the bottom, enter your admin password, then check the box to lock the folder. lock the lock and you're done.
Yes, that is correct. The alternative is to quit all applications prior to logging out. Lion will then have a chance to remove the saved states.

And, for the OP:
It has also been a regular feature of Mac OS to automatically open any window that was open at shutdown. To avoit that behavior, simply close any Finder windows and properly quit applications by closing their window and using Command + Q (or File >Quit).
This was true only for the Finder. Prior to Lion, no other apps would launch unless they were included in the Login Items for the account. And the OS would not restore windows for other apps.
A very small number of apps (TextWrangler is an example) implemented this capability prior to Lion. They could restore previously opened windows. But that is an application feature, and can be controlled by the application's preferences. Lion implements it at the system level, and users have virtually no control on a per application basis.
