LR4, MacOS Can't delete files "ag.library.expandAllStacks" Error

Hi I have LR 4.3, Camera Raw 7.3
Until yesterday I was able to delete pictures, using the contextual menu or the delete key. I got the message asking me if I wanted to delete them from disk or from the catalog.
But now, that popup message doesn't appear. The picture is not removed, just nothing happens.
I checked the logs and this is the error message:
performCommandDesc could not perform command ag.library.expandAllStacks (Command was disabled.).
I uninstalled LR moving it to the trash. Then I deleted the com.adobe.Lightroom4.plist and I also removed the folder ~/Library/Application Support/Adobe/Lightroom.
I rebbooted the machine and installed it again. But the issue is still there, with the same error message.
I verified the disk and checked file permissions.
I also tried to use another catalog from a backup.
Nothing, same error.
One anusual thing that I did before the error was to install the "HDRsoft Merge to 32-bit HDR Plug-in for Lightroom - Version 1.0"
I removed it but the error was still there. After the re-install I didnd't install that plug-in again so if it was the problem, it shouldn't be after the clean installation that I did again.
Please help!
Machine Specs:
Man mini server mid 2011
2GHz Intel core i7
Ram: 8G
Graphics: Intel HD Graphics 3000 512MB
OSX: 10.8.2 (12C60)
Thanks.

Can't add file to library (no error, file can't be found)

Hi All-
I hope I'm not asking a really stupid question. I have recently transfered my library to iTunes in my new Macbook (my first Mac), which went fine. Since then I have added some new music. Sometime between then and now (just a few days) something has happened to my iTunes.
Now, when I try to add a file to the library nothing happens. I select it and press choose and I get no error, nothing. The file isnt in iTunes after I add it. I have done a search for the files, I have restarted and tried again and still the files aren't added. I have gone into the files and made sure I have full permissions so thats not the problem. I'm hoping someone knows what I'm talking about! Thanks!

iTunes 7.0.2 under OS X 10.3.9
I noticed that songs in various folders within itunes:Music did not appear anywhere in my library. Some appeared in various playlists. When set playing & command L, they are revealed as in a playlist.
Aha!, thought I, the database no loger syncs with the music folder/subfolders. Do as Apple advise & drag the whole music folder into the iTunes window. Many hundreds of such items lost to the library were then trwled through and various messages informed me that the library was being cleaned up.
Alas!, when I did a search of the libray, not a single further item has been added. Songs are still to be found in the playlists, but not in the Library.
Any ideas, anyone?

Can't delete files in iTunes 10.4 (80) OS 10.7 Delete in the edit menu is not hi-lighted?

Can't delete files in iTunes 10.4 (80) OS 10.7 Delete in the edit menu is not hi-lighted. Any sugestions? I have three Mac's and they all have the same problem.

Gmatos, when I high-light and drag file from iTunes to my trash the usual promt of "do I want to remove it" followed by by the uual "do I want to keep the file or remove that from my library" comes up too. I click "dont keep file" and it is gone from my itunes and my library an my HD. It's exactly the same as it's always been except annoyingly this is the only way I can do it as the delete button just doesn't work in this latest version.
Hope this is clearer for you.

Can i delete my iPhoto library (since I have Photos)?

Now that I've upgraded to Photos, can I delete my iPhoto library in User/Pictures? With Photos, it created a parallel (same size) Photos library next to my iPhoto library. Not sure I want two of the same photos on my HD and backups (since the size is considerable). It made my SugarSync go over its limit, for instance. I know that keeping the iPhoto library enables me to click on it specifically and open up the photos in iPhoto (instead of Photos). If I delete my iPhoto library, just keeping my new Photos library with the same photos and movies, will it be detrimental in any way to my seeing the photos in Photos? Does Photos have any dependence on the iPhoto library, or is the iPhoto library just an archive at this point? Thank you!

With Photos, it created a parallel (same size) Photos library next to my iPhoto library.
The size you are seeing in the Finder is misleading. The new Photos Library and the iPhoto Library are sharing the image files and each photo is stored only one, see: Photos saves disk space by sharing images with your iPhoto or Aperture libraries - Apple Support
Also: http://sixcolors.com/post/2015/02/the-hard-link-between-photos-and-iphoto/
You could delete the iPhoto Library and the Photos library will continue to work, but deleting the iPhoto Library will not free much disk space, because of the hard links from Photos. I would wait a bit, before taking this step and deleting the iPhoto Library. Check your photos library thoroughly, before you delete if.
If you should discover later, that the migration of your libraries has been faulty and you need to repeat it after repairing your libraries, you will be out of luck.
Remember, it is is just a few days after the first release of Photos as version 1.0. There are very likely some bugs and I would not burn all bridges before the library has been thoroughly tested and you are very confident, that this early Photos release is working well on your Mac.

Can not delete files from Adobe reader

can not delete files from adobe reader.

Can you let us know a little more about what you are trying to do? Adobe Reader opens pdf files but does not store them so, there's nothing to delete.

Where can I find the Start up disk and how can I delete file from it.

where can I find the Start up disk on theMac Book Air?
How can I delete files from it?

The startup disk is the internal SSD in your MBA. You may delete files by draging the file to Trash (or clicking on them and then execute COMMAND+Delete). Then empty Trash.

How can i delete the photo library in my iphone 4 with ios6

how can i delete the photo library in my iphone 4 with ios6

go to settings > general > usage > music app under the storage section > slide across the bar that says 'photo library' and a red delete button will appear
you can also plug the device into your computer with itunes, go to the photos tab at the top center and uncheck where it says 'sync photos.' then press 'apply' in the bottom right corner. this will erase the photos that were synced to your phone from the computer

Stronger medicine may be needed, but try this first
Force the Trash to empty using the Option key
This technique uses a hidden feature of Mac OS X to force the Trash to empty. Perform the following steps in the order specified:
Press and hold the mouse button on the Trash icon in the Dock. The context menu for Trash will display.
Press and hold the Option key or the Shift-Option keyboard combination,
Select Empty Trash from the context menu for Trash.
Release the keys pressed and held in step 2.

You are posting in the iMac PPC forum, but it looks like you have an Intel Mac. Get Trash It if you have an Intel.

Ok, so it appears that my photo gallery and video gallery decided to delete themselves? Is there a trash can or deleted file where I can recover them? Please help

Ok, it seems that my photo gallery and video gallery decided to
delete themselves. Is there a way to recover them perhaps from
a trash can or deleted file? I have a Android

appreciate your reply
1. i do not see a trashcan iconwhen i open the photos.
2. the photos are NOT in the 'camera roll' they are in a folder called 'iPad photos' (which is in the 'albums' section of the iPad)
3. i have re-set the iPad numerous times in order to try and resolve this. each time it is the same - no trashcan.
4. i have no method of 'moving' the photos to another folder - only the option to 'add to' a 'new folder'. since thsi won't delete the original photos, there is little point in trying this.
5. i'm guessing your next suggestion will be to completely back up and re-set my iPad? is that really what i should be doing here? surely... surely.... please, this should be a simple - select>trashcan>delete process and not something i have to spend half my working day trying to resolve! seriously, seriosly, unimpressed with Apple over this issue. it's about time that Apple gave the power back to the user on devices like these. i can understand now why people jailbreak their iPads... there rant over - but please consider my feelings over this issue.

Can I delete files in "All My Files" under Finder and Favorites without deleting them in the actual folders? If they will be deleted from the original folders then how do I put them on the external hard drive to save the documents, photos, and videos?

Switch to the Finder app and open its preferences.
Remove the check mark on the items you don't want displayed in the Sidebar tab.
The originals are not removed from the machine.

I can't login, keep geting "Your Startup Disk is Full" and asking me to delete file. if I cant login how can I delete files? Please help

I Keep getting "your startup disk is full" ..... "You need to make more space available on your startup disk by deleting file..." If I can't have an acess, how can I delete files. Please help..

That means the hard drive of your computer is full, and you don't have enough free space on your computer, to do what you are trying to do.
You need to clear up space on your computer.
If you hard drive is full, check the following places to ensure they are not holding unwanted data.
- your trash can in the dock
- if you use iPhoto, your trash in iPhoto - launch iPhoto, and select trash in the left hand column. iPhoto has it's own trash, and is often overlooked
- your download folder - finder / home user / downloads - every time you download something, it stores it here. This is often overlooked as well
- do you have more than one user on the computer? If you do, ensure they are needed. If not, delete them, and the contents of their home folders
If you hard drive is very full, you may want to consider the following:
- putting in a newer larger hard drive - (call you local apple store for prices on this)
- deleting data off your computer
- moving data to an external drive - (iPhoto Libraries, iTunes Libraries or iMovie events, as they are the biggest space hogs)
