Trash will not delete from trash folder! What can cause this effect?

u can actually force it to delete, oviously i assume you dont have the application or data etc open neware else?
try restarting your computer, go into finder close all your open applications etc, servers, **** even clear your data in your web browser, do a disk utility check and verify your drives and repair em if nessicary.
as chamar suggested look at http://www.thexlab.com/faqs/trash.html
i had the same problem before but with a good 5-10 minutes of googling i was able to solve it..
best of luck

  • Please help! My Itunes says corrupt file and will not open (IMac 2010). I couldn't fix it by reinstalling so I moved it to trash. It will not delete from my trash as it is saying "Japanese.lproj" is in use. I can't delete or open to close it, what do I do

    Please help!
    My Itunes says there is a corrupt file and will not open (IMac 2010). I couldn't fix it by reinstalling ITunes so I moved ITunes to trash. It will not delete from my trash as it is saying "Japanese.lproj" is in use. I have never opened or used "Japanese.lproj". I can't delete ITunes or open ITunes to close the Japanese.lproj, what do I do? Thank you for any help you can provide..

    It will not delete from my trash as it is saying "Japanese.lproj" is in use. I have never opened or used "Japanese.lproj".
    Interesting. This sort of thing is more common on Windows systems. Taken at face value, one of the iTunes program files (one of the Japanese language resources) is damaged.
    I'd try running your Disk Utility over your startup disk. Does it find/repair any damage? If so can you empty your trash and reinstall your iTunes successfully now?

  • After updating from Lion 10.7.4 to 10.7.5, my MacBook Pro will not reboot.  Why?  What can I do about it?

    After upating from Lion 10.7.4 to 10.7.5, my MacBook Pro will not reboot.  Why?  What can I do about it?

    I ended up having to visit an Apple Store.  They claimed that the update must have aggravated an already corrupted hard disk drive.  The solution was to wipe my hard disk (fortunately I had recently backed up on Time Machine).  The "Genius" also claimed this was the first time he had come across the problem.  Although he was clearly able to diagnose it straightaway, and the next person he saw had exactly the same problem with his Mac, and I saw an awful lot of customers queuing up with their Macs and iMacs looking very suspiciously like they all had the same problem!  So clearly Apple know what the problem is but as usual treat customers as if they're idiots in order to cover up the problem.  But at least the problem is now solved (although having to take at trip out and wait in a queue at an Apple store, and then restoring from backups is a painstaking inconvenience I could well have done without).  All I can suggest is that you might as well take it in.  None of the "solutions" on the Forum are remotely on the ball, and all Apple "Geniuses" have clearly been told what the problem is and how to fix it.  Good luck!

    You won’t be able to use it. Ask eBay for a refund.

  • I have been using Elements 12 without a problem for 9 months.  Now when I try to open the program, I get an error message  "Adobe Photoshop Elements 12 quit unexpectedly" and it will not open at all.  What can I do to open the program?

    Thank you for responding.  Nothing actually worked!  After reading the posts online, I called Apple.  They indicated they have seen problems with some software after their upgrades.  The technician was able to fix the problem on my computer remotely, but I have no clue what he did!  But, it was definitely related to their recent upgrade to my computer.

  • I have an Apple Air Book and I am very satisfied with it except there are video that I cannot see.  The reason is that Quick Time will not support the video.  What can I do to be able to get these videos?

    I have an Apple Air Book and I am very satisfied with it except there are video that I cannot see.  The reason is that Quick Time will not support the video.  What can I do to be able to get these videos?  I have all ready download Adobe Flash Player and installed it but it has not effect.

    Get Flip4Mac (for Windows Media videos):
    http://dynamic.telestream.net/downloads/download-flip4macwmv.asp?prodid=flip4mac wmv
    And Perian for everything else:
    http://perian.org/
    You should be able to play most videos with QuickTime player once both are installed.

  • I turned my Ipad off and when I tried to turn it back on, only the apple displays and it will not go past that.  What can I do to get it to come back on?  It won't acknowledge it when I plug it in either.

    my ipad 1 will not upgrade past ios4.2, what can I do?

    What computer operating system are you using & what version of iTunes? You have to connect your iPad to your computer to update. After you update to iOS 5.x, the next time you can uipdate via wifi.

    I cannot control the sensor on my Mac, it moves by itself, and opens different pages. What can cause this problem? please help me.

    There are several possible causes for this issue. Take each of the following steps until it's resolved.
    1. Follow the instructions in this support article.
    2. Reset the System Management Controller.
    3. If you're using a Bluetooth trackpad, investigate potential sources of interference, including USB 3 devices.
    4. A swollen battery in a MacBook Pro or Air can impinge on the trackpad from below and cause erratic behavior. If you have trouble clicking the trackpad, this is likely the reason. The battery must be replaced.
    5. There's a report that a (possibly defective) Thunderbolt Ethernet adapter can cause the built in trackpad of a MacBook to  behave erratically. If you're using such an adapter, disconnect it and test.
    6. There's also a report of erratic cursor movements caused by an external display that was connected but not turned on.
    7. If none of the above applies, or if you have good reason to think your computer is being controlled remotely, remove it from the network by turning off Wi-Fi, disconnecting from a Bluetooth network link, and unplugging the Ethernet cable or USB modem, whichever is applicable. If the cursor movements stop immediately, you should suspect an intrusion.

  • Myfi is running very slow, what can cause this?

    Myfi is running very slow, what can cause this?

    Either a service problem in your area or a glitch/hardware problem on the Jetpack.
    To determine service problems simply travel to a different area and rerun your speed test.  If the problem persists then its a glitch/hardware problem on the Jetpack.  If not then its a service problem in that particular area that would need to be addressed by VZW or improved with the usage of antennas/boosters.
    When performance testing be sure to use a tool that is universal to better illustrate the problem.  For example a common utility is to speed test using www.speedtest.net.  Run this test a few times to build an average and then perform the same tests in a different location or after changing something around.
