Trash Emptying Problems

I have 2 items that I cannot empty in the trash. I have a version of Safari that I had to replace with one from the install disk and then update. When I try to empty the trash with the old Safari I just get the spinning wheel of death and then I have to restart the computer. I also have a version of quicktime that I am trying to get rid of but when I try to empty the trash I get a message that it is preparing to empty the trash but it never does. I try to empty with one thing at a time, not both, but no luck.

Look at these links.

Recovered files in the trash. How do I put them back to their original place so that they do not keep being recovered very time I open my Mac?

I keep getting the same recovered files in the trash. How do I put them back to their original place so that they do not keep being recovered very time I open my Mac?

The recovered files are temporary files used by Mac OS X applications. Usually temporary files are deleted by an application when it no longer needs them. If an application quits unexpectedly, the temporary files may not be deleted by the application. When you restart your computer, Mac OS X moves these temporary files to the Trash.
You can retrieve useful files by dragging them out of the Trash. In most cases, however, the temporary files are not important and it is safe to empty your Trash. Check with the manufacturer of the application if you are not sure.

Thinking that I was deleting from my iPod, I have inadvertently deleted a lot of music from my iTunes library. I clicked for retaining on file rather than sending to trash. How do I get this music back from file into my library?

See Empty/corrupt iTunes library after upgrade/crash or simply import the media folder back into the library. Restoring a recent backup of the .itl database will restore the original date added values, ratings, play counts, playlist membership, etc. that would otherwise be missing from the reimported media.

How to retrieve from trash?

When imovie crashed and I reopened, some files were in the trash. Can't seem to figure out how to retrieve them and restore my project to how it was.Any advice anyone?

Ok, I quit iMovie then when I re-opened the files were draggable. That's a relief as I didn't fancy re-importing them.

Give your phone a reboot - hold down power/home button together for 10 to 15 secs or until you see the apple logo and then release, wait for your phone to reboot and then try moving your mail again.

Somehow my iTunes app has been put into the trash. How can I get this and all of the stuff that was in it back to my Application folder? I try to drag it out of trash, but it won't work.

Also, when I do try to drag it out of the Trash to put it back into Applications (on the Finder sidebar), it asks me to authenticate with the administration password. I enter it, and then a window appears saying that I can't do that because I do not have permission to modify iTunes. Please help.

Try going into Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars. Then select the account on the right-hand side of that screen, select Account, then Advanced, Deleted Mailbox, and under On The Server tap the 'Trash' folder (or whatever it is called by yor provider) so that it gets a tick against it - then come out of that series of popups by tapping on the relevant buttons at the top of them and then see if you can delete emails

In the Finder, press the key combination shift-command-C, or select
Go ▹ Computer
from the menu bar. A window will open showing all mounted volumes. Select the one in question and open the Info window. What is shown as the Format in the General section?

Hi Thomas, I was trying to drag it from the Launch Pad where it just bounced back again. Have now solved it by dragging it from the Application.
Thanks.

Where has it appeared?
You can forcibly remove it via the terminal..this will bypass flags/permissions preventing you from deleting it.
sudo rm -rf /path/to/file/C1EC7FOO
Note that the path to file needs to be the actual path. What you do is type sudo rm -rf , then just drag the file right into terminal and the path will be entered. Make sure there is a space between "-rf" and the "path." Make sure you copy the exact command and path to file. Make sure NOT to hit Return before you drag the file into terminal if you choose the latter method. This is a dangerous command if used improperly. Very effective, though, in cases such as yours.
Once entered, hit return. Enter your password. Type "exit." Close Terminal.

IMAP trash emptying on its own

I've searched for anyone else having this issue to no avail.
I have setup a folder called iPhone Trash on my Mail server. I assigned it on my iPhone as the trash can and set that IMAP account to NEVER delete messages. It properly drops the message in that box when I delete it and I can see it on my web-based mail client.
The issue is, every day or so, that box empties out. I haven't set any special rules on my server to delete messages from this box. I have the proper setting on the iPhone not to delete messages. Why is this trash emptying?
Has anyone else experienced something similar? Thanks for any help.
Regards,
Clay

I have exactly this problem. My IMAP trash folder used to have 1000+ messages in it (i'm lazy and never empty it). Within 1 week of purchasing my iPhone this was down to just 50 or so messages. I assumed I'd mistakenly hit empty on my computer at some point.
Today I've checked and trash only has 30 messages in, the oldest is from 1 week ago (5 days after I started using my iPhone). So to me it looks like the iPhone is somehow killing off messages in trash older than a week.
I access the same account on my PC using outlook 2007, and also over a web interface. I have done so for some time with no problems. I have to conclude it's my iPhone doing the deleting then. I have been running 1.1.2 ever since I got the phone. It is set up to never remove deleted messages (although it looks suspiciously like it's running with the "remove after 1 week" setting).
Not a major drama - I have deleted these messages after all! But an interesting quirk.
