Empty trash has stopped working

Running 10.7.6 Lion.
Was doing a big clean up
Of the hard drive and the Trash would not empty.
Any advise appreciated.
Thought that perhaps I should just upgrade to Mountain Lion.
But, I'm happy with Lion; except for this.

empty the trash bin regularly, or it might take ages to empty.
First method:
click the Trash bin while holding Alt(option) key; the Trash bin opens, and, while still holding the Alt key, from the Finder menu click "empty trash".
Second method:
use a Terminal command, and it will be empty very quickly:
open Terminal and copy/paste following command in it then hit enter:
sudo rm -Rf ~/.Trash/*
Quit Terminal from the menu.

  • System sound (like when empty trash) miserably stop working in Lion 10.7.2

    I have upgraded to Lion10.7.2 on my Macbook Pro early 2008 Intel 15 inches, and the update went fine except one annoying problem I found so far.
    This problem also occurred in 10.7.0 and 10.7.1 and it seems that no fix has been made in 10.7.2
    The problem is when I drag file to Trash and empty it, there should be trash empty sound effect, and this has been with us since Tiger.
    In 10.7.2 it work as expected, but when I close the lid to get it to sleep, once I open the lid, the system sound is gone without no reason.
    When I play music from iTunes, or when I change volume level, the sound effects work as usual, but empty trash sound stop working miserable.
    I have to shut down, press Option-Command-P-R and power on to reset PRAM then system sound like empty trash come back. Again, afpr may be half a day, it's gone again
    Any friend here has solution for this? The com.apple.soundprefs.plist file, if you delete it, in Lion, it is not recreated again, and it's gone forever. SO delete plist file is not a solution.
    Help please

    I found a workaround to my problem accidentally.
    As the system sound like empty trash or file drag sound stop working miserably, after close the MBP lid to sleep, after it awake, system sound just stop working.
    Before this, I have to shut down my MBP, reset PRAM by press Option-Control-P-R and power on, to get the system sound back
    But I found that the workaround whenever the system sound stop working thad do not require reboot is:
    1. Go to System Preference-Sound
    2. Change Play sound effects through: Internal Speakers to Soundflower 2ch) in the drop down list.
        (Soundflower has been installed by a software called iShowU HD (screen capturing software))
    3. Slide to change Alert Volume from the original position
    4. Switch back to Internal Speakers from Soundflower 92ch) in the drop down list
    5. Change Alert Volume by moving slide bar back to the desirable position
    Immediately, the sound effects that stop working will start working again.
    This just work for my case. I don't know it will work for ther people that have the same problem as me or not.
    And if possible, can some expert here give me explanation why doing the above make system sound effect to work again? mI want to know the cause, and definite solution to the problem
    Advise and suggestion please. Thank in advance

  • "Adobe Flash CS5 has stopped working" error anytime i do anything - HELP PLZ!

    Hi there,
    I have used Macromedia Flash MX for many, many moons. Finally, when I got Windows 7, I was VERY excited to get updated on MX and move to Adobe Flash Professional CS5. However, i have never once been able to use this program, as it crashes pretty much every time i try to do anything. However, since my upgrade, i've noticed a lot more crashing in MX as well (i still have it installed on my old HD and have been using it to build videos rather than CS5 since it crashes less frequently). Now, i'm at my wit's end. I get the above error message when i do pretty much anything, but most recently it's EVERY time i try to select all unused files from the library. The error message i get in MX is "Flash 6.0 r25 has stopped working," but it's the same exact problem in the problem signature as CS5's:

    If i try to select "Check online for a solution," in MX it just kills out of the program, but in CS5 it gives me a second error before killing out:

    PLEASE tell me there's a way to fix this. I've tried everything I can think of and have to get this video done in the next few days!!!! I would love to be able to start using CS5 and ditch the ancient MX on my slaved drive, but I can't get CS5 to work!
    Thanks.

         For information on compatibility mode, see Using Windows 7 or Vista compatibility mode. 
    Windows Compatibility Mode can cause errors to occur with Adobe Creative Suite products. To disable it, do the following:
    Navigate to C:\Program Files\Adobe\[application name]. 
    Right-click the product application file and choose Properties.  
    In the Compatibility tab, deselect all options under Compatibility Mode, Settings, and Privilege Level.   
    Click OK, and relaunch the Adobe Creative Suite 5 product. 
    4. Disable startup items and services. 
         Applications running in the background can prevent Creative Suite 5, CS5.5, and CS6 products from launching. For instructions on temporarily disabling these items, see the following documents:
    Disable startup items and Services (Windows XP)
    Restart Windows in a modified mode (Windows 7 and Windows Vista)
    Start the system in Safe Boot mode (Mac OS)
    5. Log in using a new local administrative user account. 
         A new local administrative account can rule out network policies, corrupt profiles, and incorrectly setup administrative accounts as the cause of a failed launch. To create a local administrator account, see the following:
    Windows XP: Choose Start > Help And Support and see the article "Add a new user to the computer," or contact your system administrator.

    If an Adobefnt*.lst file becomes damaged, it can cause the application to crash, freeze, or quit when you try to start it. Adobefnt.lst files (for example, Adobefnt10.list for InDesign) are font cache files that Adobe applications use to quickly gather and store information about available fonts. If you delete or rename an Adobefnt.lst file, the application re-creates it the next time you start the application.  
    7. Troubleshoot font issues. 
    Remove or disable nonessential fonts and then restart your Creative Suite application. See:

  • Adobe Bridge CS6 has stopped working - has issue been resolved?

    Hello.
    I am experiencing the above problem with a new install of CS6.
    Has this issue been resolved?
    CS6 Design and Web Premium installed on Win 7 pro 64 bit Dell Precision laptop. Error with Adobe Bridge cs6: "Adobe Bridge CS6 has stopped working", problem event name "APPCRASH". Error occurs when opening Bridge from Photoshop and other apps (Browse in Bridge) and directly from desktop or start menu. Also a cache directory is not being created under c:\user\<user>\appdata\roaming\adobe\bridge\. Holding ctrl key down and double clicking icon gets same message, cannot get at reset window.
    Performed the following with no change: verified Bridge and full suite is on latest version (Bridge=5.0.2.4); created desktop icon directly from bridge.exe; verified application was installed and is starting with administrator privileges; verified latest display driver installed; performed complete uninstall of CS6, CC cleaner tool run, then full reinstall; Error under Event Viewer: faulting application: Bridge.exe and faulting module name: ntdll.dll; disabled UAC; tested memory for damage using MemTest86-good.
    Thanks for any help you can provide.

    A follow up to the above.
    There appears to be a number of possible causes for this type of error. In my case it was somewhat specific. I had a stand alone copy on this same machine previously of Adobe Photoshop CS2 (only) which was completely uninstalled prior to the installation of CS6. There is an issue with Bridge CS6 being installed on a machine that has Bridge CS2 on it. I wasn't aware of Bridge being present with my copy of Photoshop CS2 but apparently there were at least some components of Bridge CS2 left after the uninstall. The workaround that solved the issue for me was the creation of an empty folder:
    C:\Users\[your user name]\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\Bridge CS2
    For those of you who may have this situation.
    Here is where I found the solution (sixth thread down):

  • I can't open Itunes on my laptop. "Itunes has stopped working. A problem causes the program to stop working correctly. windows will close the program and notify you if a solution is available" is the message. what is the problem here?

    I can't open my Itunes program in my laptop computer with windows 8. the message is "Itunes has stopped working. A problem causess the program to stop working properly. windows will close the program and notify you if a solution is available". I reboot  the machine, Uninstall and re install the  Itune program, stilll the same message pops up.

    The first thing to try is System Restore to take you back to a point in time when it did work. If that is not successful, create a new user on the computer. log in with that and see if ID will start. This will tell us if the problem is in the system/program or the user account.
    If it works in a new user account, see Replace Your Preferences and in addition to replacing the prefs, empty the InDesign Recovery folder that will be in the same location and the InDesign SavedData file.

  • Itunes Has Stopped Working, Program closes

    I have recently just updated my Itunes and it has stopped working. This happened in a previous updated version, but after a reinstall i was able to get it to work. This time it did not work, and I can't seem to find a way to get the program to work now.
    The error looks like this...
    I open itunes from shortcut on desktop or exe file from program file
    I see itunes is opened up, i can see my playlists/songs everything
    Before i get a chance to do anything windows pops up with a window and says
    "Itunes has stopped working...windows is checking for a solution to the problem...A problem caused the program to stop working correctly. windows will close the program and notify you if a solution is available.
    I can only click on the "close program" button.
    I have tried a reinstall twice now, and am lost for ideas on how to fix this. I'm not amazing at troubleshooting problems, so I've posted the error that shows up in my event log. Any help would be appreciated so i can continue to use the itunes store, and update my iphone.

    Okay, taken at face value this is suggesting there's a problem with your QuickTime (which makes sense in context, because iTunes requires a properly functioning QuickTime in order to run).
    So, let's first try swapping out your existing QuickTime.
    Head into your "Uninstall a program" control panel. Uninstall QuickTime.
    Next, we'll clear away any leftover QuickTime program files or folders.
    Restart your computer.
    After the computer restarts, open Local Disk (C:) located in Computer or whichever hard disk your programs are installed on.
    Open the Program Files folder.
    Right-click the QuickTime folder (if it exists), choose Delete, and choose Yes when asked to confirm the deletion. Click Continue if Windows needs confirmation or permission to continue.
    Open Local Disk (C:) located in Computer or whichever hard disk your operating system is installed on. Open the Windows folder. Open the System32 folder.
    Right-click the QuickTime file (if it exists), choose Delete, and choose Yes when asked to confirm the deletion. Click Continue if Windows needs confirmation or permission to continue.
    Right-click the QuickTimeVR file (if it exists), choose Delete, and choose Yes when asked to confirm the deletion. Click Continue if Windows needs confirmation or permission to continue.
    Right-click the Recycle Bin and choose Empty Recycle Bin.
    Restart the PC and download and save a copy of the QuickTime standalone installer to your hard drive (get the one that doesn't mention iTunes):
    http://www.apple.com/quicktime/download/
    Install QuickTime by doubleclicking the QuickTimeInstaller.exe file.
    Restart again, and try launching iTunes again. Does it launch without the error this time?

  • Hp support assistant has stopped working windows 8

    My HP Support Assistant has stopped working. I have read other comments on the forum concerning this problem and attempted to follow their advice. But I am still having the same problem. I uninstalled the HP support in the Control Panel uninstall programs. I restarted  my computer then reinstalled the HP support. When installing it asked if I wanted to write over all of the files because HP files were still on my computer. Apparently it did not fully uninstall. I emptied my recycle bin and cleaned out my registry after I tried to uninstall the HP file again. Went back and reinstalled HP support again. This time I did not get the message that it was already installed and do I want to overwrite the files. I thought that the problem was solved but it is not. I cannot get the HP support to work at all. Please can anyone tell me what to do. I am not very savvy with computers and sure use some help.
    My computer is an:     HP Envy 20 TouchSmart 20d011 - using Windows 8.
    I had this problem with another HP computer and called Tech support and they told me to completely restore my computer and then my hard drive crashed. I had to send the computer back an purchased this one. But now dejavu all over. Thank you for any response to my question.

  • ITunes has Stopped Working in Vista

    Browsing this forum, I see quite a few people are having trouble with the newest version of iTunes.
    Ever since I upgraded to iTunes 7.5 a few weeks ago on my 32-bit Vista Ultimate, the program will no longer run. When I try to start iTunes, I get a message saying "iTunes has stopped working. Windows can check online for a solution to the problem." Also, whenever I start up Windows, I get a similar message saying "iTunesHelper Module has stopped working."
    When I tell Windows to check online for a solution, it just gives me a page telling me there's a newer version of iTunes, but it is the newest version that I'm trying to run.
    Any thoughts?

    This solution has worked on one of my 4 computers so I can't guarantee but it might be worth a try.
    Uninstall Itunes and Quicktime. Reboot your computer
    Empty out the recycle bin
    Use Search to locate any and all files and folders that reference itunes or quick time. Of course do not touch your music folder.
    Delete all these references to itunes and quick time.
    Reboot.
    Download a standalone version of Quick time and install.
    Download Itunes (I used version 7.4.1 that I obtained from Oldapps.com.)
    Once this was done I was able to run itunes on my laptop. I did upgrade to 7.5 but I could not get my sons nano 8GB to sync so I reverted back to 7.4.1 and it works just fine.
    I have yet to get itunes working on My wifes vista laptop and it quit working on my XP desktop some time ago (I have never used it and wouldn't care except my son just bought the nano) Itunes a version prior to 7.4 was running on my sons laptop until he upgrade to 7.5 when he bought the nano, just last Friday, and 7.5 totally borked things up. Aside note is that his hard drive crashed a day later, but I don't think that had anything to do with it.
    If you read through this board you will find that itunes and windows are not getting along well at all. If you have a "new" ipod be it nano, classic or what ever I beleive you must use version 7.4 or newer. It seems to me that if Apple really wants floks to buy these things they should be sure the primary piece of software is stable and works!

  • Thunderbird has stopped working

    Hello,
    Starting on 04/08/2014 the Thunderbird has stopped working in any way in my PC. I am running Windows 8.1 Pro x64. Before that day everything was ok and Thunderbird was working. I asked some friends using Windows 8 and they have the same problem. Thunderbird won't load the email accounts and won't send and receive any email. It won't even let us add a new email account. The message received when trying to add a new account is the following "Sorry - we're unable to communicate with our sign-up server. Please check your connection.". Also if we will try to move forward and add a new email account anyway the answer will be that Thunderbird can't connect to any server. We have uninstalled Thunderbird and install it again several times in the past days with no success. I was looking t delete the Thunderbird folder in Program files but I can't find it. The uninstall and install again procedure including deleting folder was a solution few years ago but it seams that now is not working anymore.
    In the past 2 weeks Thunderbird started working only for few hours and we have the same problem again. I was asking around 10 people working with Thunderbird and they have the same problem at the moment and they had the same problem in the past month.
    Of course I turned off windows firewall and test if Thunderbird will work but it was not a solution. I am running windows 8.1 Pro x64. Thunderbird is not on the list of the allowed or not allowed software through firewall and I can't find any option to add the Thunderbird to the list in order to try to solve the problem.
    I am running BitDefender antivirus and I turned off the BitDefender firewall and the same thing happens. I also turned off the whole antivirus functions after and the same thing. I turned of bot windows firewall and BitDefender firewall or turned off the whole BitDefender and the same thing happens. I checked the BitDefender firewall and the Thunderbird has full access.
    Also I have checked the Windows updates. I usually not allow updates in my PC. I remember that I choose not to install Microsoft updates ever. I checked the status and it is set up not to install Microsoft updates. I also checked the "update history" and is empty an the status is "you have not tried to install any updates on your computer".
    I started windows 8.1 Pro x64 in Safe mode with networking and started Thunderbird while windows was in safe mode and it has the same problem.
    I am trying to add Gmail and AOL accounts in Thunderbird. The emails are all set correctly and working well in browser or other email client.
    Today (04/21/2014) Thunderbird has the same problem.
    Any help will be much appreciated.

  • "Adobe elements has stopped working."

    I've received the error "Adobe elements has stopped working" and then the program closes.  It has happened numerous times and now happens more and more often.  Does anyone have any fixes for this?

    I've been having the same problem.
    Win7 64bit 8GB RAM, 500GB free hard drive space.  All Win updates in place on a regular basis (last time was 2 days ago).
    I often get the "stopped working" popup message on my desktop right after I close the program (well, yeah, I would hope it would stop working when I close it) and also increasingly get it on the desktop when I open the program (before the PE12 screen opens).  This latter popup "stopped working" message will persist until I close the popup window, even though the program is working just fine.
    The most occurrences of actual crashes seem to be when doing a lot of titles (new or editing existing), when saving, and when exporting.
    For awhile it seemed (very subjectively) that rendering the project before saving or exporting possibly helped reduce the number of occurrences, but just now the "stopped working" message popped up and the program quit while I was rendering (got about 80% through).
    This time I checked the "check online for a solution" box, but to no avail--there was a brief period while Windows searched online, and then the program shut down anyway.
    I've tried rebooting, making sure other programs were closed, etc. but nothing really seems to have much effect.  The same project will save or export just fine on one occasion, then if I so much as change a word in a title it will become unstable.  The entire project is 26 minutes long.  One video track (2) with titles, one main video track (1), one audio track (mostly empty) of ambient sound with the video, one sound track.
    I will try Steve's suggestion of Ctrl-Alt-Shift for awhile on opening.  (This helps when PSE tools freeze up.)  Thanks for the tip!

    There is a message at the lower left coner saying display performance will be poor due to incorrect operating graphics card or driver!
    This message is always there.
    The problems happens with all project with Apple MOV file from my Canon SD780 a 720 30 frame  H.264 file
    With a project empty (no clips) imported the problem does not happens. As soon as you import a file the error happens.
    This is a brand new W7 install 2 HD SATA separate from the DVD IDE channel.
    Swapp file also separate in the second HD.
    The videos were imported from the folder since i already had the files before i bought Elements
    The preview of the mov files (just open the file without any editing) in Elements is very choppy. In Windows (in QuickTime) it is perfect and uses only 35% of CPU

    With the new nVidia drivers, the first thing that you will want to do will be to go to the nVidia console and disable 3D Sterevision. No Adobe program can use it. It is designed for gamers with the 3D Stereovision goggles.
    If that does not fix things, go back to the console and disable PhysX. It too is a gamer module.
    Good luck,

  • User issue-- "itunes has stopped working"

    This week I have been unable to access iTunes, instead receiving the following error message: "iTunes has stopped working."
    I have reviewed earlier discussions, especially this recent one:
    http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=1464059&tstart=15
    I have tried most of the suggestions, but I have run into a few roadblocks that I wanted to see if I could get some help with. But before all of that, I wanted to note that I created a new user account and was able to access iTunes that way. Unfortunately, however, this is not a good long term solution. I would like to try to resolve whatever issue exists with my user account.
    With respect to the potential solutions identified in the earlier post:
    *“Completely Remove iTunes and Quicktime”*
    #17—no such files existed in my windows\\system32 folder.
    *“Empty your Temp directory and restart”*
    I got the following error message :The action cannot be completed because the folder is open in another program. Close the folder and try again. I thought that I had closed all of the applications.
    *“Clean Up iTunes installer files on the computer”*
    When you click on the link under this suggestion, you get a warning from Windows not to use this utility with 2007 Office system products, which are what I have.
    *“Download Quicktime Standalone Installer”*
    I have no interest in Quicktime and only have it because it is apparently bundled with iTunes. Still, I tried this and it did not fix the problem. (BTW, Quicktime still works fine.)
    *“Disable other conflicting software”*
    I used MSCONFIG to try to troubleshoot conflicts. First, the instructions in article 305415 indicate that the following two items will be under the "startup" tab: "iTunesHelper" and "qttask." These were not listed. Second, when I clicked the "services" tab and selected "hide all microsoft services," there were 25 items still listed, which seems not right to me. I did not proceed here because I was concerned about causing some disaster.
    If anyone has any insight here and would be willing to share it, I would greatly appreciate it!
    PS--is there a way to copy and paste the list of startup programs so that I can print them and review them one by one? Thanks!

    +But before all of that, I wanted to note that I created a new user account and was able to access iTunes that way.+
    Up until now you've been working through techniques for troubleshooting System-wide problems. But that fact you relate about the user accounts indicates that you've got a user-account-specific problem, and the troubleshooting techniques are different for those.
    In your normal user account, try the techniques listed under "User-specific Troubleshooting" in the following document:

  • "iTunes has stopped working" when going to iTunes store

    Opening iTunes works fine, until I click on the "iTunes store" button. The I get the message "iTunes  has stopped working
    A problem caused the program to stop working correctly. Windows will close the program and notify you if a solution is available."
    This happened just after upgrading from windows 8 to 8.1
    "view account" produces the same error.
    Login into account works fine. (menu bar at top left; iTunes store > sign in)
    I'm using iTunes 11.1.2
    C:\Users\username\App Data\Roaming\Apple Computer\iTunes\iTunes Plug-ins\ is empty
    Quicktime starts fine.
    Unintstalled and reinstalled iTunes.
    Same problem occurs in safemode (ctr shift start up).
    I tried deleting the SC Info.sid* files, but problem still occurs.
    Updating genius works fine.
    Still occurs when running as administrator
    Ran repair from the control panel on both iTunes and quicktime.
    Any suggestions on what I can do about this?

    I am running Windows 8.1 and iTunes 11.1.3.8.  I found a simple solution by browsing through the support communities.  Here it is:   Copy QTMovieWin.dll from:  C:\Program Files (x86)\Common Files\Apple\Apple Application Support to: C:\Program Files (x86)\iTunes
    This worked for me.  Good luck.
