Trash folder gone

I noticed my trash folder not filling up so i have been investigating.
i used terminal with this command> ls -lad ~/.Trash and it said no such file or directory. It seems some tidying up i've done has gone awry.
what can i do to get it back?
thanks

log out/in. your .Trash folder should be recreated when you try to trash something.

  • How come I don't have a trash folder? If I accidentally delete something it's GONE!!! Everyone deletes something they don't mean to but it's not recoverable

    I don't have a trash folder? If I delete a message it is GONE!!!!! I want a trash folder please!! Thank you

    See https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/kb/profiles-tb#w_how-to-find-your-profile to locate your profile.
    Using your File Explorer, go to your profile and the look at the level below that for Mail, and below that for Local Folders. There should be a file named 'Trash' and another named 'Trash.msf'
    If either the 'Trash' file or the 'Trash.msf' file is there, delete them (!). Then restart TB. It should recreate the Trash.

  • Iphone e-mails can't be sent/transferred to trash folder? They are completely deleted.

Whenever I delete an e-mail I get this message "could not move e-mail to trash folder" E-mails are just gone and I want them to go to trash incase I delete one by mistake? Thanks for your help in advance!!!

    Have you tried going into the email settings for each account, Advanced option, and  look at the mail box behaviors for each of the Drafts, Sent and Deleted mailbox?

  • 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.

  • Trash folder in Iphoto is not holding the pictures.

    When I move photos to the trash folder in Iphoto, they completely dissappear without me emptying the trash, they are not in the system trash either. Why is this happening? Why is this happening? I want to be able to check them again before they are gone. How do I fix this?

    This might also help you:
    Deleting Photos from an iPhoto Library:
    1 - from an Event or the Photos mode: select the photo(s) and use the Delete key to move the photos to the trash bin. Then empty the iPhoto Trash bin as follows:
    2 - from an album, smart album, book, slideshow, card, etc.: select the photo(s) and use the key combination of Command+Option+Delete to move the photos to the trash bin.  Then empty the trash bin as above.
    NOTE: deleting a photo from an album, slideshow, book, etc., with only the Delete key only deletes that photo from that item. Deleting a photo from an Event deletes ALL occurances of that photo in the library.

    Hello,
    Yes I mean the deleted Document.
    Let’s say I have a workspace with 3 folders (folder1, folder2, folder3). In every folder there are 3 docs folder1_doc1.doc, folder1_doc2.doc, in folder2 folder2_doc1.doc ...
    Now I delete folder1. I see in the trash of the workspace just the deleted files (folder1_doc1.doc...) without directory structure.
    What I want is to have a possibility do recover whole directory structure (folder1 including folder1_doc1.doc...).
    I hope it's clear now :-)

  • Accidentally deleted trash folder

    Hello,
    I have searched everywhere trying to find a solution.  I had one folder on my desktop that had several subfolders inside of it.  I was deleting some desktop items and accidentally deleted this folder as well and then I emptied the trash folder.  I unfortunately never set time machine up on my iMac.  I also purchased a program to try to restore my files with no success.
    Does anybody have any suggestions?  I thought about trying to restore it to a prior time, but everywhere I am reading says that you need to have backed everything up with Time Machine.
    Any help would be greatly appreciated.

    If you deleted it then it's gone. Only thing would be if you had a backup then you could recover

  • DOWNLOADS FROM TRASH FOLDER

    I have founbd a further problem somewhat related to my previous posting today.
    My Windows live Mail is downloading the emails which BT has been moved to the trash folder.  Surely if they have been regarded as trash, it should not be possible for them to be downloaded.  I thought only the inbox was downloaded.
    If this is not the case, how do I stop what BT regards as trash, from being downloaded.
    Thanks again,
    Geoff.

    Have you checked your BT Mail settings? There are options to switch spam filtering on or off under "Spam settings for POP users".

  • Hi when i open my application folder, all the application is shown in trash folder. when i click the application it says this app is in trash first move it out. and when i try to open through finder go it says this file doesn't exist. can some1 plz help?

    hi when i open my application folder, all the application is shown in trash folder. when i click the application it says this app is in trash first move it out. and when i try to open through finder> go it says this file doesn't exist. can some1 plz help? how can i put all my application through application folder?

    Something really odd is going on. In your first screen shot, I noticed that the Applications folder does not have the proper icon displayed in the side bar. Also, in the title bar it lists it as Applications 08-59-29-909.
    Not sure where it's picking up that odd name, unless it's because it's still truly within the Trash folder.
    Try this. In the Finder > Preferences > General > turn on "Always open folders in a new window". (I have a feeling you have the default setting with this off).
    Now, in Finder > Go > move down and open the Applications Folder from there. Now open the folder where you see all your applications that you show in your screen shot, select all, and move them to this true appliactions folder.
    This is what you should properly seeing (but with different apps listed):
    See how the Applications folder has the icon of the letter A shaped with a pencil, ruler & pen.

  • Drafts folder relocation Outlook 2013 and Gmail IMAP and multiple saves to trash folder

    Hi,
    I have Office professional 2013 32 bit running on Win 7 64bit. I have an issue that I know has been discussed but I see no resolution.
    The drafts are saved on the server not locally and the trash folder fills with multiple copies of the draft, the number of copies appears to relate to the time of editing the draft. I have to go in and delete these copies in Trash after writing an email.
    Outlook 2013 does not allow me to remap the drafts folder I click unsubscribe and it says the folder is a special folder and cannot be unsubscribed in Outlook. I use the account on my iPhone and this allows me to unsubscribe from the folder.
    Has anyone found a solution or is anyone working on a resolution for this problem?
    Best regards,
    Clive
    Regards, Clive

    I am having a similar problem with trash receiving multiple copies of some drafts. In last 20 minutes 19 copies of a draft have been included in trash. It seems to happen when I view a draft --but not solely
    Using Outlook 2013 with IMAP GMail on windows 7 on a laptop. It synchs with my IPHONE. Yesterday I called Dell Support. They said it was a virus -- though a thorough scan found one item --it was deleted and problem continues.

  • My local folders appear to be in the trash folder, how do i move them?

    I recently got a new PC and migrated my email folders. Since then I have noticed many emails seem to have disappeared when I look for them in trash or sent. I just noticed that my local folders appear to be in the trash folder: when I minimize "trash" they disappear. I'm thinking this may be the reason I keep losing emails but I can't figure out how this happened or to move the folders out of the trash.

    No problem Bob...glad to be of assistance. To change the titles, you can either do this also when you have selected File>Get Info & then select on the "Info" tab or by clicking on the title of each Movie/TV Show in your library.

  • Incoming mail going to trash folder instead of inbox

    About 20% of my new emails are deposited in the trash folder instead of my inbox.
    How can I prevent this?

    Your slow computer could be caused by a number of problems such as memory, hardware, or software issues. It isn't related to the problem you had with Mail.
    First, I suggest you open Disk Utility and repair permissions on your boot volume. Then verify if the hard drive is OK, or does it show problems.
    Restart the computer and see if you still have problems.
    If so, I would just advise you to post a new discussion describing this problem so others with better knowledge could help you to figure out the problem.
    Search google or these discussions on Slow Computer with Yosemite. There are many discussions on this already. You might also look into downloading EtreCheck and providing that information in your post. It will gather information from your computer to allow others to look and analyze what you have that could be causing issues.
