First you open a File to the specified file, and then you call delete(). Easy
File file = new File("path/filename");
file.delete();Of course if you want to make your application cross-platform you will need to build a correct path somehow. Check out the static attributes of the File class to help you (fx. File.separator).

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:

How do I retrieve a deleted PDF file from Adobe Reader on iPad?

I inadvertently deleted a very important PDF file from the Adobe Reader on iPad. Does anyone know what I can do to retrieve it? A reply would be highly appreciated!

Unfortunately, once a file is deleted, you won't be able to "undelete" it.
Have you backed up your iPad using iCloud or iTunes recently? If so, you can restore the entire content (not just a single PDF file) on your iPad.

Deleting individual Files from trash folder

This should be a simple question...Is there a way to permanently delete individual files/folders from the trash folder instead of emptying the entire trash folder? TIA, Scott

As Allan says, no... the trash *should not* be used as a repository for files you're not sure you want to trash yet. Not only is this extremely hazardous, as it's easy to accidentally empty the trash, but it also puts all those questionable files outside the reach of Time Machine, so they will not be backed up. If you need a "Pending Trash" folder, create one on your desktop, and then put files in the trash only once you are truly ready to delete them.

Once a movie is copied into iTunes, can I delete the file from the folder?

I've copied several movies into iTunes and then sync'd them onto my Apple TV.
My question is: Once I've copied a movie into iTunes, can I delete the movie from its original folder (e.g. the Movie folder) and still have the movie in my iTunes?
More specifically, does "dragging and dropping" the movie into iTunes make a new copy of the movie file so that I can delete the original file? And if I can delete the original file, should I?
MacBook Pro Mac OS X (10.4.9)

Thanks. I'll check and see when I get home tonight. My guess is that that's the setting since my disk space has decreased a lot when I started copying things into iTunes.

PDF file from Outlook folder created with Standard X not opened with Reader XI _ Flash issue ?

Dear Community,
I tried to fix this issue but i have to admit i'm stuck right now :
Computer on windows 7 SP1 with Adobe Reader XI and Adobe Standard X installed.
On Outlook 2010, I convert a folder to a PDF file so i can navigate offline and share the mails with colleagues.
At the end of the conversion, Adobe Standard X opens and all the tree architecture of the PDf is available, browse in all files, open attached documents...
But as soon as, on my computer or on other computer only with Reader XI, the PDF file (whatever it's size and number of mails inside) is to be opened with Reader, there's a message saying that flash player compatible with Adobe Reader and Acrobat as to be installed.
There's no precision regarding the flash version to use, and clicking on the link to open web browser, no page is opened (no internet issue).
After 1 minute, Reader finnally opens but only displaying the first file of the PDF (in my case the first mail of the outlook folder).
i have the latest flash player version installed
Can anybody tell me if this problem is known ? or if someone knows how to fix it so the pdf file can be fully used in Reader ??
Many thanks for your help.
Regards
AppleAddict

Hi Kiro ,
Did you try opening that file in any other browser ?If not ,please try doing that once and see if that works for you.
Try Repairing Acrobat once and see if that helps.
Launch Acrobat>Navigate to Help>Repair Acrobat Installation.

Delete locked file from /Applications folder

Hi there
I used Clean My Mac to remove a file install - something I have done many times without any problems.
This time though the application file was left behind in the /Applications folder and I am unable to move it to the Trash because it is locked.
I have tried the following
sudo chflags nouchg /Applications/CrashPlan.app
This however does not resolve the issue and I am still unable to move the file to Trash - it does not remove the locked flag
Does anyone have any other ideas or suggestions how to remove the file?

Hi WIlliam
I tried what you said but I get an unexpected result...
Johns-Mac-Pro:~ John$ sudo rm -r /Applications/CrashPlan.app
Password:
rm: /Applications/CrashPlan.app/Contents: Operation not permitted
override rwxrwxr-x root/admin schg for /Applications/CrashPlan.app?
I'm not sure how to respond to the question it is asking. I tried keying in Y but the response was
override rwxrwxr-x root/admin schg for /Applications/CrashPlan.app? y
rm: /Applications/CrashPlan.app: Operation not permitted

Can ODI delete a file from an FTP server

I'm downloading a file via FTP - but I want that file removed after it's downloaded.
So I want to 'move' the file down, rather than copy it... or delete it after it has downloaded
Is this possible with ODI?
Many thanks

Auto scan files from windows folder

I am having trouble updating the iTunes library automatically? e.g. when I delete a file from my folder where all my music is stored the Library in iTunes does not do a refresh and pick up the change?
Please help because this is getting irritating because I have to keep importing the folder into iTunes.

iTunes does not have an auto-refresh or scan feature as you desire.
If you delete a music file on the PC (outside of iTunes), you will be left with a broken song reference within iTunes.
Delete both the reference and file by using iTunes.

Deleting files from trash folder 10.9.2

I recently updated to 10.9.2. Nothing seemed to have changed but the trash folder is acting funny. Now I am not able to delete any file from the trash. I select empty trash securely and then the dialog box displaying the number of files to be deleted appears and disappears in 1-2 seconds and the file/s dont get deleted.
Is there a way out of this?
Cheers!

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?

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.
