IOS 8.2 : Message : Where is the trash can ?

Hi all !
Just gave my mother an iPad, She asked me once how to delete a message/picture in the Message App. I show it to her. I have since updated her iPad to iOS 8.2 and the trash seems to have disappeared. On the iPhone, it is there. But not on the iPad.
My mother, aged 75 and who hates technology, asked me to phone the company and tell them that she wants her trash bin back
Here you go apple.

It should be there where Demo states it is, under the circumstances he mentions. I've run across this same issue where the trash can was simply NOT there, despite the fact that it should've been there. A device reset cleared that up. Give it a try.
Device Reset (won't affect settings/data/music/apps/etc)
1. Press and hold (& continue to hold) BOTH the Sleep/Wake button & the Home button.
2. Continue to hold BOTH (ignoring any other messages that may show) until you see the Apple logo on the screen.
3. Release BOTH buttons when you see the Apple logo and allow the device to boot normally.

Mail - where is the trash can

This is my 3rd install of OSX 10.4.5 - this time when I created an email account there is no trash can - I see how to make new mailbox folders but can not find where thetrash is hidden - please help - thanks

Hi again,
In each account folder, and sometimes in the Mailboxes folder, there is a Deleted Messages.mbox, but it is only created by Mail (and not by you) after first deleting a message in the Inbox of each account, and for the one for On My Mac, until a messages is deleted from an On My Mac mailbox.
Also, in Mail Preferences/Accounts/Mailbox Behaviors, you have to have selected to have deleted messages moved a separate mailbox.
Hope this helps.

Where is the trash can so I can delete photos?

I have 600 unwanted photos in my Photostream and very little free space on my iPad 4. When I select photos in the "My Photostream" album there is no option to delete them, as shown in other posts in this forum. Icloud ignores them, because they are over 30 days old (why this crazy limitation?)
How the ..... Can I remove these photos? The only option I know is to delete everything by returning the iPad to its factory state, which is not attractive.
Apple seem to have forgotten that people need to be able to manage their data, iTunes is the worst piece of software I've ever experienced and icloud is little better.
Please does Anyone know a solution, which will overcome Apple's omission and allow me to manage my photos myself?
P.S. Sorry about the random capital letters, but this iPad won't let me place the cursor with any precision. That's a question for another day, together with "why does this forum say that I have IOS 6.0.1 on my IOS 7.0.4 iPad?

Yes it is definitely the icloud Photostream,
All Photo Streams are iCloud Photo Streams. Are the photos in My Photo Stream in tthe Albums section of the Photos app?
It was only when I deleted some that I discovered that icloud wasn't working as I expected. It ignores them,
Deleted them from where? iPad? Computer?
What happened and what were you expecting?
What do you mean it ignores them?
It ignores them, because they were transferred to the iPad
Transfered to the iPad from where?
they were transferred to the iPad more than 30 days ago.
This is irrelevant. Photo Stream photos are stored on the server for 30 days but your iOS device will hold 1000 Photo Stream photos.
With that being said, if they are older than 30 days, turn off Photo Stream in the iCloud settings then back on and it will clear all but the last 30 days of photos in your Photo Stream.

Since updating I no longer have the ability to delete photos individually or as a folder where has the trash can gone

Since I updated can not delete photos from camera rolls the option to delete photos one by one has also vanished how do I delete now to make more room

In thumbnail view in the Camera Roll album you should have a Select button at the top right of the screen which will allow you to select photos to delete, and tapping the trashcan icon bottom right should delete them. In full-screen you should still have the Edit button bottom right of the screen

After updating to IOS 8, I can not delete individual messages, and the trash can is gone

After I updated on IOS 8, I can not delete individual messages, only delete all and the trash can is gone!!! Anyone else having this problem?

The option is still there - hold down on said text - more - then hit the trash icon.

Error Message " Where is the file '370.MTS'? "

Hello Experts.I am trying to open a PE version 9 project file with my newly installed PE version 12. I have a new laptop with windows 8. I think I correctly transfered the project file from my old computer that ran windows 7 (and has the PE 9 on it.)
In PE 12, when I try to open the project, I get the message, " Where is the file '370.MTS'? " and, the project does not open.
I appreciate all the help and advice you can offer.

Best of both worlds suggestion perhaps....
Archive your Premiere Elements 9.0/9.0.1 project, using the project's File Menu/Project Archiver/Copy Option. That will save the project file (project.prel) + the source media that went into that project.
Take the saved Copied Folder and transfer it to a USB Flash Drive. Use the USB Flash Drive to transfer/copy its Copied Folder to the second computer.
When you want to open the version 9.0/9.0.1 project in Premiere Elements 12, right click the 9.0/9.0.1 project.prel file, select Open With, Premiere Elements 12.
Once you edit this file from the Copied Folder in Premiere Elements 12, you cannot edit it some more in Premiere Elements 9.0/9.0.1. But you do have the back up for the original project 9.0/9.0.1 project.prel.

Where is the "Trash"?

I am curious as to where the trash can resides. I assumed it was on the hard drive. The reason for the question is my powerbook just came back from repair (third time in less than a year) and they replaced the hard drive as well as the logic board. My son turned it on and found a music video (Thriller in case any body wants to know) in the trash. I had watched it a couple days before it went into the shop. How could it have survived?

its on the hard drive?
if you put someting in the trash it makes that area of hard drive writeable again when you empty it. if you dont empty it you can take files out and use them again. if you empty it you can use software to try and rescue it if that area of the hardrive has not been writen over yet. if you secure empty it the files/disk area u erase are writen over or whats called zeroed out a few times this makes recovery virtualy impossable.
so to your question??? i have no idea how the file was there was it on a pod or other storeage device?? if you take files off a disk and place them in the trash but dont empty it when you put that disk or storage device back in the files will appear in the trash again prehaps this is whats happened??

Where is the trash icon?

Just got my new Droid 2...dude says put unwanted widgets in trash. Where is the trash? Why isn't there a manual that tells you where the trash is?

Right. Long press on a short cut and the trash can displays at the bottom of the screen. Long press also works to move things.

Where is the trash folder in photos

iPhoto just got updated to Photos on my Macbook Air Yosemite 1-.10.3 Where is the trash folder in Photos? iPhoto had a trash folder and I could go back and search for a photo I'd deleted. I cannot find a trash folder on Photos. What happened to all the photos I had in the trash folder in iPhoto?

It's not calle Recently Deleted and is reached via the File ➙ Show Recently Deleted menu option.
There you can the remove them from the library or return them to the library.

Having problem deleting all but one particular mail from the iPhone 4S mail inbox. I can delete mail either by the trash can or using edit, selecting the mail message and deleting. However there is this one mail message that will not go away. Any ideas?

I am having a problem deleting all but one particular mail message from my inbox. I delete by either using the trash can icon for individual mail, or using edit, selecting the mail message (s) and clicking delete. However there is this one mail message that will not go away regardles of what I do including deleting all from the trash. Any ideas?

I get that every once in a while on my 3GS, and that's what I do to get rid of it. Probably not a bad idea to power down the phone every so often, anyway, gets rid of any crud waiting to cause a bug.
Glad to hear that it worked for you.

HT1338 I try to buy songs itunes but there is a message stating that my disk is full and to empty out the trash can. But i don't know what disk it speaks of?

I try to buy songs itunes but there is a message stating that my disk is full and to empty out the trash can. But i don't know what disk it speaks of?

The "disk" is your startup volume, which is usually called "Macintosh HD" (unless you changed it). Your iTunes media files (such as song files), and basically everything else, are stored on that volume (unless you changed it).
You should create some free space as soon as possible, because the system (OS) and applications use free space to write temporary files as part of normal operations. If there is very little free space available, your system may start to bog down and feel slow because it's not running efficiently.
You can empty whatever is currently in the Trash by doing a click-hold (or right-click) on the "waste basket" icon in the Dock, and selecting Empty Trash. A good place to look for files you may no longer need is your Downloads folder. There is usually a link to your Downloads folder in the sidebar of a Finder window. (The folder itself is located in your user home folder.)
You can see how much free space you currently have by selecting Macintosh HD on your Desktop (or in the sidebar of a Finder window), and selecting Get Info from the File menu. You can also right-click on it and select Get Info from the menu that comes up (or hit Cmd-I on keyboard). The Info window shows Capacity and Available for the volume. Available is the free space. It would be best to keep Available at least 10% of Capacity; getting it to 20% or more would be better.
If you can't free up enough free space by deleting things you do not need anymore, you should get an external hard drive and save some your files there. That's actually how I run my iMac; most of my user files are stored on external USB and FireWire drives.

How do I add my Applications fold back onto the dock? People say I must drag it near the trash can, but that just puts it past that barrier. I am trying to get it back to where it disappeared from, on the left hand side near the finder icon.

With respect, you actually cannot store folders on the left side of the Dock - only on the right side. I wonder if you're talking about Launchpad, which looks like a silver rocket and shows you your installed applications? It's not actually a shortcut to the Applications folder, though. You can certainly drag Launchpad into the left side of the Dock from the Applications folder.

I am not sure if I changed any settings but our of no where I no longer able to "trash" any email. I tap the trash can but the email reamin in the in box

I am not sure if I accidently changed any settings but out of no where I am no longer able to "trash" any email from my comcast inbox. When I tap the trash can the email remain in the inbox.

Try a reset. Press & hold the Power and Home buttons simultaneously, ignoring the red power off slider, until the Apple logo appears. Then release both buttons. This should not affect any content on the iPad, it is similar to rebooting your computer.

I accidentally removed the trash can from the dock. Where do I find the trash app to put back on the dock

I accidently removed the trash can from the dock. Where do I find the trash app to put back on the dock?

I know this is pretty old but I wanted to add this for anyone else who might come across this thread.
I have PathFinder on my system and there is an option to add the "Remove from Dock" contextual menu items to the Finder and Trash. I accidetally removed the Trash icon, and to get it back do this:
1. Open Terminal.app from the "Utilities" folder in the main Applications folder. Or simply open Launchpad or Spotlight and start typing Terminal.
2. Copy and paste the below command exactly, be very careful with Terminal as it can cause terminal damage to your computer if used incorrectly.
killall Dock
Your Desktop background may flash and the Dock will disappear and will repear after a short pause.
You should now have your Finder and Trash icons back.
Hope this helps,

Where is the trash icon to delete photos?

The just-published iPad Portable Genius book by Paul McFedries clearly states: To delete a photo, follow these steps: 1. Tap Photos in the Home screen. The Photo app appears. 2. Locate the Image you want to blow away. For example, if you know the photo is part of a particular event, open that event stack. 3. Tap the doomed photo. The Photos app opens the photo. 4. Tap the screen to reveal the controls. 5. Tape the Delete button (the trash can icon). The Photos app asks you to confirm the deletion. 6. Tap Delete Photo. The Photos app tosses the photo into the trash, wipes its hands, and returns you to the photos.
My problem is that the trash icon doesn't appear on the screen! It appeared one time a few days ago, so perhaps a downloaded app is causing the glitch. Any ideas, anyone? Thank you so much.

Photos created on the iPad or detached from emails (for example) can be deleted via a trashcan icon. But photos synced from iTunes have to be deleted from the synced albums (and not directly from the pad)
