Delete an item listed in Finder underneath places

I have a dmg file listed in my "places". When i click on it, it tells me it can't be used because it is in the trash and to drag it out. I don't want to use it, I want to delete from my "places". Do i just need to drag it to the desktop and then click on it finder and hit delete?

Derek,
SImply drag the item out of the Finder Sidebar, then let it go. It will disappear in a puff of smoke.

Recent items list in Finder?

After a file has been deleted I know that it still appears in the recent items list in Finder... But if I were to click on that file nothing happens...not even a message to say something to the extent of the file is missing or deleted. I am new to Mac Computers and I am running Mac OS X Snow Leopard. So I was wondering if this is the norm?

AFAIK, it's the norm. Recent documents only displays ones previously opened, not their current status or whether they still exist.

Can't delete/remove items listed as not available in shopping cart

i have 2 songs in my itunes shopping cart which are listed as "not available" (under an album title, i assume, because both songs are contained under an arrow). i tried clicking on the "x" button to remove, as well as trying to highlight and delete. neither worked. the songs are stuck in my shopping cart. now, instead of purchasing songs in a group as i normally do, i have to download each of the songs that are available separately.
how do i remove this item (which contains two songs), from my shopping cart?
has anyone else had this problem?
thanks,

Help with deletion of two items in my Finder found under 'Shared'

I would like suggestion on how to delete two items in the Finder. They are listed under 'Shared'
I have to iMac OSX Yosemite. Can you help?

They do not have access to your computer. They are broadcasting sharing services to your network, and your computer is detecting them and showing them to you in the sidebar. This is your computer accessing them, and not the other way around. The first is your Epson printer on your network, which has network printing capabilities that it is broadcasting. The other name is too generic to figure out, but is likely a similar networked device, and can be your router, a scanner, printer, or any other such device.
Configuring the systems to prevent this would be a matter of accessing their setups according to their manufacturers' directions (either by way of a utility program, or a Web page that you log into), and then seeing if there are various network services on them that you can disable to prevent the broadcasting of these services on your network. Unfortunately this is not always possible to do, at least without disabling wanted features (like being able to print via the network instead of using a USB cable), so in general your best bet is to simply ignore these items, or hide them if you do not want to see them.

My recent items list appears again after restart. How do I delete it for good?

When I turn on the computer, the recent items list still displays the documents and applications I worked with a few days ago. I delete it, and after restarting the computer, it displays the same list again (not a new list, but the exact same items over and over again). Any tips?

Select the iPod shuffle in the iTunes sidebar (under DEVICES). If this is a current 4th (or 3rd) gen iPod shuffle, you should be able to see the contents of the shuffle by type, intented under the shuffle's name (still in the sidebar). Select Music or Audiobooks (not sure where those items from the library will be listed). The items will be listed to the right, for each category. Find the items, select, and delete.
It's on page 20 of the manual
http://manuals.info.apple.com/en_US/iPod_shuffle_4thgen_User_Guide.pdf
NOTE: If this is an 1st or 2nd gen iPod shuffle, select the iPod shuffle in the iTunes sidebar (under DEVICES). Over to the right, go to the Contents tab, where the items are listed. Select and delete them from this list.
I find it more convenient to make a playlist in iTunes with things I want to put on the shuffle. I then set up automatic syncing (or use autofill) to have iTunes load the shuffle from that playlist, automatically.

Delete single item form multiple populated list

Hi,
please help me to find a solution!!
I have 2 listboxes. listbox Description is populated by XML.
When user selects multiple items at the same time from the Description listbox, they are populated in the listbox and are removed from Description listbox. that works fine.
But the issue is if the user accidently selects one of the multiple selected items at the same time wrong and want to delete a single items, this doesnt work anymore.
I can not even click on each single item.
I try to find a way how to enable user to populate multiple items at the same time and be able to delete each single item, which then should return back to the Description listbox.
I would really appreciate if you could help me on this!!!
This is my sample: https://acrobat.com/#d=l0mujTOFduSJFele5R5i3g
Thanks,
Diana

Would you not just reverse your code ..instead of populating listbox from the selections in description and deleting the items out of description, remove the items from listbox and update description then remove the items from listbox.
Or am I missing something?

Is it possible to sort Mac Mail Rules into alphabetical order? I have in excess of 50 rules and everytime I want to add to a rule, such as "delete incoming" I have to go through the entire list to find it.

Hi,
According to your description, my understanding is that use CMAK to configure split tunneling on VPN clients, traffic to specified devices can be routed via their own default gateway.
If the manually added route entries all have default metric and interface, clients will select one by the default routing rule, can’t select one of them according to clients’ own conditions. So, I am afraid that CMAK can’t implement the function which you need.
A blog described about How to configure split tunneling on VPN clients using CMAK, for your reference:

Items "date modified" column when viewing files as list in finder

I'm not really sure if I can change this viewing option, but i will give it a try:
when viewing files as list in finder, "yesterday" items "date modified" column shows up with the term "yesterday", while this does not happen for "today" items, where what shows up is just today's date and not the term "today".
I found this rather confusing, since it is not immediate: i.e. if I want to check for items modified today at a glance, i need to pick today's date from a ist with a number of different dates. As a matter of fact, it's a way easier when checking for yesterday's items.
Suggestions anyone?
Thanks!

toygal -- welcome to the Aperture user-to-user forum. iPhoto was designed with you in mind. Aperture is 100x more complicated (and no faster). I strongly recommend that you revert to iPhoto and use it. Compared to Aperture, it will bring you more pleasure and cause you much less frustration. Whoever told you that Aperture is faster not only was wrong, they failed to take into consideration the hours that you would have to practice to become comfortable with it.
Here are some threads which briefly touch on the difference between iPhoto and Aperture -- use the search to find many more.

On deleting an item "Name" column of recycle bin is updating with data in one of the custom column instead of title field in SP 2013 Custom list

On deleting an item, "Name" column of recycle bin is updating with data in one of the custom column instead of title field in SP 2013 Custom list.
Thanks, Chinnu

Hi,
According to your post, my understanding is that you want to update title field in recycle bin with other field value of the item.
We can use the ItemDeleting Event Receiver to achieve it.
While item is deleting, replace title field value with other field value using ItemDeleting event receiver, then in the recycle bin, the title value will replace with other field value.
However, there is an issue while restore the item from the recycle bin, the item title would be replaced.
As an workaround, we can create a helper field in the list to store the title field value while deleting, then replace back while restoring using
ItemAdded Event Receiver.
I have made a simple code demo below to achieve this scenario, it works like a charm(the
Test2 field is the helper field, you can hide it in the list), you can refer to it.
public override void ItemDeleting(SPItemEventProperties properties)
properties.ListItem["Test2"]=properties.ListItem["Title"];
properties.ListItem["Title"]=properties.ListItem["Test1"];
properties.ListItem.Update();
base.ItemDeleting(properties);
/// <summary>
/// An item was added.
/// </summary>
public override void ItemAdded(SPItemEventProperties properties)
base.ItemAdded(properties);
properties.ListItem["Title"] = properties.ListItem["Test2"];
properties.ListItem.Update();
Thanks & Regards,
Jason

Deleting a contact list item through Powershell in sharepoint 2010 synced with outlook 2010, does not delete the item from outlook.

hi All,
I have a requirement for updating the contact list from CSV file and updating/ adding and deleting the changes in the SharePoint list using PowerShell script. List is also synced with outlook.
The problem arises, when we delete an item from the list using PS, the item (which was earlier synced with outlook) is not getting deleted from outlook.
Strange behavior : when we perform the same deletion operation manually from the SharePoint UI, every thing works fine as required.
Please refer the below PS
#Adding the records from SharePoint not in CSV file
if($flag -ne 1)
Get-Member -InputObject $csvRow -MemberType NoteProperty | ForEach-Object {
$property = $_.Name
$newItem.set_Item($property, $csvRow.$property)
$newItem.Update()
#Deleting the records from SharePoint not in CSV file
CreatePSLog "Deleting the records from SharePoint not in CSV file"
foreach($itm in $List.items)
$del = 0
$items | ForEach-Object {
if($itm["SAP Ansprechpartnernr"] -eq $_."SAP Ansprechpartnernr")
$del++;
if(!$del)
$List.GetItemById($itm.Id).Delete()
$List.Update();
$Web.Update();
many thanks in advance, Please suggest as I am completly stuck on this :(
Regards, Arun kumar

Hi Kumar,
Please remove the codeline $List.Update();, then run your code again, it works for me.
You may need to firstly delete the synced contacts list within Outlook to remove those undeleted accounts, then re-connect the SharePoint contacts list to outlook, then run your modified Powershell code.
Thanks

How can I delete all items on the "Done" list in Reminer-App? There are meanwhile hundreds of items (shopping, appoitments, ...) and I don't want to spend hours deleting them.

You can't remove the built-in root certificates, but you can remove their trust bits via the Edit button to prevent Firefox from using them as a trusted root certificate.
Intermediate certificates that Firefox has stored when visiting websites that show as "Software Security Device" should never has trust bits set.
Note that it is the responsibility of a server to send all required intermediate certificates to make it possible to build a certificate chain that ends with a built-in root certificate.

Before delete the item, use the below logic
http://stackoverflow.com/questions/1075323/copy-list-items-from-one-list-to-another-in-sharepoint
or
You can do this by 2 workflows one creating list item by copying and second workflow on the copied item which will delete the original list item.

How do I delete multiple items at once instead of one at a time?

How do I delete multiple items at once instead of one at a time? I have several duplicate items in my library and would like to delete the duplicates. Thanks!

You can select multiple items using shift to select a range and control to add or remove items from it.
Regarding duplciates, Apple's official advice is here... HT2905 - How to find and remove duplicate items in your iTunes library. It is a manual process and the article fails to explain some of the potential pitfalls.
Use Shift > View > Show Exact Duplicate Items to display duplicates as this is normally a more useful selection. You need to manually select all but one of each group of identical tracks to remove. Sorting the list by Date Added may make it easier to select the appropriate tracks, however this works best when performed immediately after the dupes have been created. If you have multiple entries in iTunes connected to the same file on the hard drive then don't send to the recycle bin. This can happen, for example, if you start iTunes with a disconnected external drive, then connect it, reimport from your media folder, then restart iTunes.
Use my DeDuper script if you're not sure, don't want to do it by hand, or want to preserve ratings, play counts and playlist membership. See this thread for background. Please take note of the warning to backup your library before deduping, whether you do so by hand or using my script, in case something goes wrong.
