Cannot delete files from Mail Junk folder

I have an issue with Mail.  I have two messages without content that cannot be deleted from the Junk folder.  I can change the classification (junk to not junk); try to move them to another folder, but nothing works.  This problem is unique to my MacBook Air -- I have the same programs and files on my office MacBook Pro and there is no issue -- I was able to delete the same files without an issue.

I am running mac 10.6.7
I have tried updating the software, operating system,
Then you should have Mac OS X 10.6.8

  • Cannot delete files from my ipod shuffle!!!

    I am new to using an ipod and i cannot delete files from my ipod, on itunes, it only shows the license agreement where the ipod files are supposed to be and no matter how many times i uninstall and reinstall itunes and agree to the license agreement i can't access anything else. can anyone help me at all i feel like a complete idiot!

    Pressing return will get past this screen as there is a button at the bottom right of iTunes which you likely cannot see.
    Set your screen resolution to at least 1024x768 to see this button.

  • Delete file from an FTP folder

    Hi expert,
    I wanna know if it's possible delete with abap command a file from a FTP folder.
    I mean, there is a ftp folder periodically filled with excel files. An ABAP program read this folder and the files content must be moved in a SAP Table. Aftre this, I must delete excel files with an abap command write in the same abap program.
    Thanks a lot

    1) read directory with fm EPS_GET_DIRECTORY_LISTING
    2) process table dir_list
    and 3) finally delete files with
    abap command:  DELETE DATASET dsn.
    hope that helps

  • Cannot delete files from batch file

    This is a test case.
    If  have the following in a .bat file. If I run it from CMD box, it works fine.
    forfiles /P c:\scripts\ /S /M u_ex*.log  /C "cmd /c del @PATH" > c:\scripts\output.txt
    But If I run it from a scheduled task, it generates the output.txt file which contains a list of the files it SHOULD have deleted, but nothing gets deleted.
    The scheduled task runs as a user who is member of administrators group, so has full permissions.
    I have also checked the box "run with highest privileges" 
    anyone know why it wont delete files from a scheduled task ?

  • Cannot delete file from shared folder

    While I was looking for another file in my shared folder, I discovered a jpg file named shannonhenry.jpg. All it appears to be is a school photo of a boy, maybe 14 or so. I tried to move it to trash to delete it because I do not know who this kid is, and I got an error message saying that I do not have sufficient priviledges. Anyone know what this file is or could be????

    Well Kelley, that photo did not come with the system so it had to come from you or someone else putting in the Shared folder.
    Choose the file and "get info" (command- i) turn the dislclosure triangle on "Ownership & Permissions" make sure you can "read & write" and make yourself the "owner"(open the lock and enter your admin password).
    Then check under General, turn the disclosure triangle and be sure the "locked" box in NOT checked.
    Let us know.

  • Cannot delete messages from the Drafts folder in Mail.

    I am running Mail 2.1.3. For some reason I am no longer able to delete draft messages from my Drafts folder. It is by no means a serious problem, just annoying! Can anyone figure this out? Thanks.

    Hi Dubaiman, and a warm welcome to the forums!
    I'm having trouble finding exactly where that is stored, but maybe move these to the Desktop in case we want to put them back, quit Mail first...

  • Cannot delete file from disk after emailling that file like attachment

    After i send some file from disk in Mail like attachment i cannot delete that file from disk unless i quit Mail. Like Mail is still using a file. Of course, that mail is in Sent mail, not in outbox.

    This deeper than that. I created another account on the same iMac and it works in Harmony with my other devices and Documents in the cloud. I can only imagine the icloud account is somehow corrupted (I am on my macbook not iMac at the moment). There have been no updates to the Calendar, Contacts or Documents since early January on that account. I have spent 1hr on the phone with support and they were baffled as well. Only thing I can gove as insight to the problem is this, I was on the Mac Mini which was backed up on Time Machine. about 4 or 5 months ago I had to completley restore the Mac Mini becasue of the never ending circle on the load screen. The Backup failed to work it kept loading the issue and 4 or 5 times the circle of death kept coming up I would subsequently wipe the Mini and go further back in the back up until I go a copy that worked.  I then loaded the Time Mache back up into my NEW iMac and wnet from there. It took about a month for this problem I am detailing above to start happening. It maybe a corrupt file loaded from the backup into the new iMac causing this problem. Best answer I can think of on my own???

  • Cannot delete file from external hard drive (error code 36) in Finder, but Terminal is ok

    I have a relatively new Macbook Pro Retina 15" and have a Western Digital 1 TB Passport.  I've been using the passport for about a year now without any problems on older Macbooks in my house.  I used to be able to read and write to this drive no problem.  I am using the Paragon NTFS for Mac software in order to read and write to the NTFS drive.  When I navigate through the drive in Finder, if I try to create a new folder, I do not have a problem.  If I try to delete that folder I just created, I get this error:
    The Finder can’t complete the operation because some data in “untitled folder” can’t be read or written.
    (Error code -36)
    The folder has nothing in it whatsoever.  I just created it.  But if I go to Terminal and I run
    rm -rf "untitled folder"
    This works fine.  Why is Terminal acting different than Finder?  This does not happen on my other Macbooks.  Thanks in advance.

    Thanx for such qucik reply!!! The pages were great, it had an answer for my problem, but unfortunately it also involved me dealing with it only on the MacIntosh HD itself, not on mounted external drive I suppose... So it didn't work they say that there is an icon in the left corner indicating locked folder - I don't see any icon on it. It says you can untick the box to unlock the folder - there is no tick to be unticked. Finally, they say that if I don't have permition or rights I cannot delete it. But how do i change permittion which already says that i can read and write in it? So everything appears to be normal only I cannot delete it. there is not even any warnig telling me I don't have enough rights, it just requires the password and after me typing it in it makes the sound of scraping paper but does nothing more. I aslo had some problems with emptying Trash after being seemingly succesful with one file and had got so far to have them appear in the Trash (no clue how this one actully got there though..) I followd the advice and emptied the Trash with Terminal. The Folder is still there but it shows 0 Kb... So far so good BUT: It is still on the external drive, so I obviously only managed to copy it into the Trash!!! Phew, innit a bit too tight to poor owners, this macbook?? I want my rights back!

  • Cannot delete files from hard disk (after deleting from playlists)!

    all of a sudden itunes stopped allowing me to automatically delete (with the warning) a downloaded podcast so I would have to go to the hard disk manually to delte the posdcast.
    How do I get the system back to what it was where I delete a podcast and then get the warning and say ok to delete from hard disk?
    TIA!

    Hi Chris:
    2 part response:
    I founf the problem--somehow my itunes folder was moved to a different part of my hard drive--once I moved it back I can delete.
    I can delete as follows: when I right click and click on delete, I first delete the file from itunes library--then I get prompted if I want to delete from my hard disk by sending file to recycle bin--There is also a prompt if I do not want to see the warning--which I have on as a safety precaution. So I bet the default could remove from playlist and send file to recycle bin in one move.

  • Cannot delete files from TC because they are in use?

    Hi all, I have converted (SmartConverter) some avi files to my ITunes, now I am trying to remove/delete the old avi files from my Time Capsule but my Imac informes me that this is not possible because the avi files are in use. The last is not the case, at least no by me, and even after a re start I am getting the same messages. even avi files that are not converted are giving me troubles. Before the system says they are in use I am getting a message saying that the files cannot be moved to the bin. I have looked on the net for an solution but without any real luck. I hope somebody can assist me with this. Thanks Prond.

  • After Update, cannot delete files from nss volumes

    Not sure if this is the same problem caused by the SLES11 upgrade, but after running all the upgrades on an OES11 system, I can see all the nss volumes of the upgraded servers from workstations using the Novell client, and I can copy or create files on these volumes. However, I cannot delete any files, they disappear from the workstation windows explorer when they are "deleted", but an f5 promptly shows the files are still there. I can go into the server as root, and delete the files under Linux with no problems, so this part is working OK.
    I am running Novell 11.1 patch 1, and this problem has only been noticeable after the update installation.
    I have supervisor rights to the volumes and files, and if I additionally set all the other file rights, I am still unable to delete the files.
    Anyone got any ideas?
    Cheers.

    I had a similar problem at updating with SP3 on SP4. It was similar, that permission ERASE is not applied to all trustees working through ncp in spite of the fact that it was available.
    Has solved a problem that has redefined this permission for trustees on all catalogues.

  • Cannot delete files from desktop

    I run the latest version of Lion OS, on a MacBook Pro. All software is maintained and updated. I have a couple of files on my desktop, which cannot be deleted. They are BACK-UP files from Keynote and PowerPoint. The files cannot be moved (physically on the desktop, they stay put), and TRASH is not accepting them;
    The item “Backup of Wholesale Sales Meeting Sea Island-powerpoint.key~1” can’t be moved to the Trash because it can’t be deleted.
    Any idea on how to delete them permanently?
    Thanks

    Hello Denis Post1
    You could remove it with the Terminal (Applications > Utilities).
    Enter the following command (copy & paste) followed by your password, you will not see nothing, while entering it and then <enter>
    sudo rm ~/Desktop/*
    for the files you confirm with a simple "y" they will be deleted. If you want to keep some other files type "n"
    hope this helps

  • Cannot delete files from external HD error code-50

    I keep getting error code-50 when trying to delete a file from my external HD (western digital).  I've restarted everything, it is not a special character problem.  I have been using this HD for about a year and this problem just recently started.  Also I cannot run disk utility verify because the HD does not show up in disk utility.  Not sure if it ever did but I never had problems until now.

    That sounds like cause for concern, but I don't know whether it's connected with the -50 error.
    Do you have backup to restore from if things take a turn for the worse?
    For the deleting problem you could look at the following link. Trash It! seems to solve many Trash problems:

  • Cannot delete file from lvlib

    I am not able to delete a missing file from lvlib. Can anyone help with this?
    Thanks,
    Saranya
    Solved!
    Go to Solution.

    Ok, the hard way, open the lvlib witha text editor (notepad) and delete the element that contains the missing VI.
    Do this on a copy to make sure the lvlib stays intact.
