Preventing MacOSX from writing trash folder to MicroSD card.

Is there a way to prevent MacOSX from writing hidden trash files to a specific drive? I have a card reader that I use to add files to my MicroSD card and whenever I delete something off the drive I notice that it saves these deleted files to a trash directory on the card. Is there any way to disable this?
Thanks in advance

No. Trash is always put in a folder on the device from which the item is deleted. Be sure to empty the Trash to assure the item is actually deleted.

Put contacts from N95-3 to your MicroSD card

Is it possible to transfer my contacts from my sim to my microsd card? I know I can transfer them to the computer but can this be done directly from the phone?

Go into contacts.
Options > Mark/Unmark > Mark all
Options > Copy > To memory card
You'll be asked if you want to delete those currently stored on the memory card.
Once the operation has completed you'll have a collection of .vcf files in E:\Others\Contacts

Can't transfer files from PC to BB 8800 microSD card

I have a BBerry 8800. As part of trying to resolve the problem described below, I have recently upgraded the OS to v4.5.0.81 (Platform 2.7.0.78) (Rogers network version).
I recently purchased a 2GB microSD card for this Blackberry. The BB seems to recognize the card (when I go to Options/Media Card it shows 1.8GB total space and 1.8GB free space). As per other posts here, I have set the other options in this area to:
Media Card Support = ON
Encryption Mode = None
Mass Storage Mode Support = ON
Auto Enable Mass Storage Mode When Connected = YES
However, I cannot seem to transfer files from my PC.
The BB does not appear as a "device with removeable storage" in Windows Explorer. Nor does it seem to appear in the Roxio Media Manager - in the devices area it only shows BB internal memory.
Does anybody have any suggestions on what might be the problem?
Thanks in advance.

Here is a bit more info that I have been able to confirm. Perhaps this will help someone identify a solution to my problems:
1. I was able to get my home PC (Windows Vista) to see the Blackberry as a removeable storage device. This is with:
Mass Storage Mode Support = ON (and the latest USB drivers)
and I was then able to transfer files to the BB as needed.
2. However, my work PC (XP Professional) still cannot see the BB (either through Win Explorer OR through Media Manager). However, if I set Mass Storage Mode Support = OFF, then Media Manager sees the Media Card and I can transfer files via this mechanism.
Any further thoughts on what might be going on?

TS4153 few files and folder are not deleting from trash folder

i am trying to delete all files and folders from the trash folder by clicking empty securely, but its not deleteing the files anf folder. please suggest how to clean the trash folder by deleteing all the deleted files and folder.

Securely deleting items in Trash writes Zeros over the data so that it is completely eradicated.
This will take quit a long time depending on how much data you have in Trash.
Unless there is data that needs to be rendered unrecoverable in the Trash, you could choose to just delete the files and folders with out the secure option.
Once you have Emptied the Trash unsecurely you can always use disk utility to Securely Erase Free Space on the Drive.

Cannot delete more than 4 e-mails from trash folder in one go

When I try to delete more than 4 e-mails in one go from the trash folder on my Sony Xperia Z2, the e-mail software crashes with the message: 'Unfortunately, E-mail has stopped'. Is this a bug everyone is experiencing on the Z2?

Thank you Thommo, your instructions have solved the problem. I cleared cache and data which got rid of the 4000+ e-mails in my bin folder. Then rebooted and inputted my e-mail account details. The e-mail app downloaded 157 e-mails from the TalkTalk server. I deleted them, and then deleted the same 157 e-mails from the bin folder... and it worked.
Thanks for your help.

Hi I am having problems removing mail from trash folder. Can anyone help please

Hi I am having problems removing mail from trash folder. I can send mails to the folder but cannot delete them permanently from the trash folder. I am using Iphone 3G and anm up to date with OS. Can anyone help please

Check that there isn't a different Trash folder to the one with the proper Trash symbol on it.
If you see one in your list of folders rather than a separate one, highlight it, then click on Mailbox...Use this mailbox for...Trash

How do I mass delete email from Trash folder?

Is there an easy way to mass delete the emails from the trash folder?

In your settings>mail>account>advanced, there is a way you can set it to self delete after 1 day. This is the earliest setting to self delete the mails. If you need to delete all of them right away. Just open one of the mails and press the trash can icon at bottom. It automatically opens the next mail and you can just sit there thumbing the trash can until all are gone. Works for me, both ways.

How do I delete mail from trash folder

I know how to delete the mail from my trash folder one email at a time. I have setting set to remove the trash folder every day, however, it isn't working. I have emails on that have been deleted 2 or 3, if not more days.
Can someone tell me how to fix this, please? This deleting one email at a time from my trash folder is a bit of a pain.
Thank you for the help!!!

You can delete all of the emails at once from the trash folder. Tap the edit button at the top, tap the red delete all button at the bottom and tap delet all again in the pop up.

How do you erase email from "trash" folder???

Thank you, when I did the on line check thing he couldn't tell me that for some reason.
It was easier than I expected.

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.

Deleted a message from Mail does not move it to the trash folder

I am a brand new mac user, so it's possible I just don't know what I am doing yet.
I have added my IMAP email account to Mail with the following mailbox behavior:
When I delete a message from my Inbox, in Mail it appears to move to the Trash folder. However, if I log into the webmail interface I can see it actually still exists in the Inbox, but has been marked as deleted (there is a line through it). It is not actually moving the message on the server into a trash folder, like iPad does. If I pull up the Trash folder on my iPad, it does automagically reflect the item I deleted. However, on my phone (not an iPhone), the messages are missing from the Trash folder.
How do I configure Mail on my Mac to behave like Mail on the iPad? When I delete a message, I want it to move the message into the Trash folder on the server.
Thank you very much,
Jesse

I figured it out. Mail created a new folder called, "Deleted Messages." I was looking in "Deleted Items," which was an old folder.

My husband has retrieved emails from my exchange email account. I deleted them from the trash bin. How is he doing this?

OK, let's come back to the original issue; how are deleted messages retrievable?
First, is the account set up as an Exchange account or a POP account? I'll assume it's Exchange. If it were POP the answer is obvious.
If it's an Exchange account are you deleting the messages from the phone or from some other computer? If you are deleting them from another computer they will not be removed from the Trash folder on the phone until the phone next syncs AND the Trash folder is opened. But this will take time. You can force the Trash folder to sync in near real time by going into Settings/Mail,Contacts,Calendars, tap on the Exchange account, tap on Mail Folders to Push and check "Deleted Items". Note that doing this will result in increased data usage and reduced battery life.
If I haven't described the situation tell me what assumptions I made that are incorrect.

How can I increase the time deleted emails stay in the trash folder?

Sometimes I find that I need to refer back to an email that was deleted. Right now the emails are dumped from the trash folder very quickly. I would like to let the deleted emails stay in the trash folder for a much longer period of time.

Is this on Comcast email? Another email site?
Usually this is set in the options for the site, and not in Firefox itself.
If you are retrieving mail into the Thunderbird email program, there actually is a different support forum for Thunderbird here: https://support.mozillamessaging.com/home
