    I have the same problem.   It's showing old podcasts that are available for download and I already watched and I don't want to see them again and I don't want them listed in my iTunes.  This latest upgrade is a piece of junk so far.   It destroyed my itunes podcast listing on my Windows Machine.   I have no intentions of upgrading to iOS7 or my Mac until I hear that things are fixed. 

  • Unable to delete anything on page/form

    Hi,
    I seem to be having a problem with deleting objects from my form in application developer mode and in multi row deletes in form mode.
    I am able to add and amend objects such as buttons to the form etc but when I try and delete, nothing happens.
    In application developer, in other apps I have created if I create a button and then delete I am prompted with the usual "are you sure you want to delete" which I guess is done through Javascript?? When I try and delete an object from my current application, nothing happens. The prompt doesn't come up and the object is not deleted (in app developer) or the data is not deleted in the form.
    I think I am missing a piece of javascript in the application processes or somewhere like that but when I have looked in my other apps that work, I haven't been able to find what is missing.
    Thanks

    I must first state that I am not very conversant with 2.2.
    Take a look at the URL in the MultiRow Delete button. It will be something like this code that I picked up from 3.2
    javascript:confirmDelete(htmldb_delete_message,'DELETE');This code calls the ConfirmDelete function in one of Apex supplied .js files. This javascript function always ends with a doSumbit('DELETE'); which causes the page to be submitted with DELETE as the REQUEST. The ApplyMRD or Automatic Row Processing process is triggered using the Request = DELETE.
    If none of this is happening then possibly a js file is not being loaded, either because you customized the template omitting it , its not in the i/javascript folder or some such reason.

  • My I-Pad Mini initiated an Update, got stuck and now I can't Stop, Reset or Delete either the App, or Update. I'm also unable to Update anything else!!! Please HELP!!!

    My I-Pad Mini initiated an Update, got stuck and now I can't Stop, Reset or Delete either the App or Update. I'm also unable to Update anything else!! Please HELP?

    Now, I find myself unable to update my version of Itunes. it asks me if I wish to update the version, I say yes, and then nothing happens.
    With that one, I'd try updating using an iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64Setup.exe) installer file, downloaded from the Apple Website:

  • I am using Firefox 11 and I am unable to print web pages. I can print PDFs ok. I tried to open the prefs.js file to delete anything that starts with print and I get an error message.

    I cannot print web pages. I've tried the solutions suggested like deleting anything that starts with print in the prefs.js file but I get an error message: Script: c:\users\rick\appdata\roading\mozilla\firefox\profiles\iviwh5c1.default\prefs.js
    line: 1
    Char: 1
    Error: invalid character
    code: 800A03F6
    Source: Microsoft JScript compilation error

    When editing '''prefs.js''' you need to use a simple text editor program. WinXP Notepad messes up the line formatting of prefs.js, so I use Wordpad - but you need to save the edited file in a Text-Only format (Wordpad asks about that when you go to save the edited file). I never used Win7, so I don't know if that version of Notepad messes with the line formatting of prefs.js or not.
    Another thing - make sure '''''"Hide extensions for known file types"''''' is de-delected in Windows file / folder options > view -> advanced settings. Otherwise Windows may add a .txt file extension that you won't be able to see, and that will break that file in Firefox. '''prefs.js.txt''' won't be recognized by Firefox, when is expecting to find '''''prefs.js''''' .

  • Unable to delete a file

    I'm unable to delete a a file from the filesystem.
    String fileName = "dummy.xml"
    boolean delete = (new File(fileName)).delete();It's not deleting this file from the filesystem.

    Can anything else delete that file? Is the fileopen?
    I don't know what you mean by can anything else
    delete the file.I mean can you delete the file from the command line, a window, whatever. Is it just Java's delete that is having this problem or is it the file system?
    No this is not opened/or use.How do you know?
    DO I have to specify a path for this. Certainly. How else would Java know which file to delete?
    If yes, please read on ........
    the path where this xml file resides could by
    anywhere in the file system. If it is how do I access
    it since there is no specific location (it is left to
    the user's choise to save the file anywhere he
    wants)Keep the user's choice.

  • "unable to delete" file on 6267

    I have a Nokia 6267 S40 phone made for Malaysia and I am in the US.
    I’ve got a file that I cannot delete from the phone memory (no mem card) which seems to be causing problems in other applications. It is a downloaded video file with the extension .3gp.
    When I try to delete it, I get the message “unable to delete” or if I mark it and I try to “delete marked” I get the message “item being used by another application”.
    When I try to open the file, the phone locks up, then I have to remove the battery.
    I am unable to rename the file, I get the message: “unable to rename”.
    If I try to move the file and get message “file in use, unable to move”.
    Sometimes I cannot even open the “gallery,” and get the message “file system is busy”
    Other problems:
    Cannot access the internet, the phone tries, but does not get past “processing data” then if I try to exit, phone locks up.
    Cannot open any applications, however I can open the folders
    Calculator will not open
    Games will not open
    Cannot save a note, will edit but not save, phone locks up if I try to save, same happens with the calander.
    I’ve tried restoring the factory settings, both “settings only” and “restore all.” In both instances this message appears, “Restoring settings. Please wait.” And I wait and wait and wait…and then I remove the battery and try something else.
    The only way I seem to be able to do anything with this particular file is if I am able to open the “gallery,” highlight the file, select options, select use video clip--as contact video then go into that contact and choose to edit—then I can view the video.
    I have tried using PC Suite also, with the same results. When I try to delete from file manager I get this error: “Operation failed. A file or folder you are trying to delete, rename, move or copy is protected from access.”
    Please help.

    It seems that this file got corrupted. An advice: never download and save files into the cellfone memory. Save them in the memory card to avoid these problems.
    If there is a nokia care centre in the USA, better take it now. Or try to upgrade (not a sure thing that fix the problem)
    Sharing is Good!!!

  • I cannot fully uninstall iTunes because I am unable to delete the commonfiles\apple folder

    I received error 42404 after updating to itunes 11, and have attempted to follow the instructions at http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1925. However, my Vista will not let me delete the commonfiles\apple folder. How can I delete it?
    The day of iTunes 11's release, I updated my iTunes, then opened up the prgm to take a look at it. I was immediately brought to the attention that the program didn't install correctly (with error 42404), so I uninstalled iTunes and reinstalled it, with the same error coming up. I continued to use iTunes and see if i could ignore the issue, however I discovered I was unable to log into my itunes acount on the store.
    So I followed the isntructions at http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1925 correctly, deleted the remaining files/folders, except I am still unable to delete the C:\Program Files\Common Files\Apple\ folder. I attempt to delete it, it asks me for permission to do so, I say continue, and even after I give it permission to delete the folder, it instantly says to me, "You need permission to perform this action," and it gives me the options to cancel or try again (which immediately brings this same window up again asking me to try again).
    I've done plenty of research for the past two days, from attempting to delete the individual files within this folder via the Command Prompt, using Safe Mode, and many other options, yet nothing works. I've seen many forums advise using a program called "Unlocker," however, anyone googling the program will find that it is offered from a plethora of various sites, and I honestly dont trust programs from these sites.
    Is there ANYTHING anyone knows to do for an issue like this? All I need is that one folder deleted, and all my problems are gone!

    It still didn't work...
    Within this commonfiles\apple folder, there is only one folder, labeled "Internet Services." Within this folder, there are 6 folders, labeled:
    APLZOD.resources
    BookmarkDAV_client.resources
    CoreDAV.resources
    iCloud.resources
    iCloudServices.resources
    ShellStreams.resources
    Within all but CoreDAV and BookmarkDAV_client, there are multiple different folders, all labeled starting with a two letter (acronym I believe, for different languages) then .lproj (for example, a folder is labeled "ar.lproj".
    In each of the folders of APLZOD.resources, there is a file labeled "APLZODlocalized.dll."
    In all of the folders containing the multiple .lproj folders, there are likewise "name"localized.dll files contained.
    In the BookmarkDAV_client and Core DAV folders, they each contain only one file, "Info.plist"
    I attempted to delete all of these files, and still, the FileAssassin could not delete them. I unlocked one of them for instance, and I tried to delete the file myself (thru windows explorer and just clicking delete), and I still had the same issue of coming eventually to the window requesting me to "try again" to have permission.
    What can I do?? I'd like to avoid Unlocker, but if it really is a reliable and SAFE program, and someone knows a SAFE place to download it from, I'd appreciate it very much so!!
    thanks!!

  • Unable to delete an email from a Gmail account in Mail

    I am unable to delete an email from my Gmail (IMAP) account within Mail on my MacBook. I get an error message that says there are no matches with the email. It does not show in Mail on my iMac or on my Gmail account online. I have rebuilt the mailbox, but don't know any other steps to try to fix this problem.
    Does anyone know how to delete this email?
    Thanks -
    Dudley Warner

    ibosie /V.K. -
    Thanks for the suggestions. I did not find the message on my Gmail Internet account. I went into Mail Preferences, and used the Advanced tab under my Gmail account to uncheck "Enable this account". The account folders disappeared. When I restarted Mail and enabled Gmail again, the email was initially gone, but a few minutes later, reappeared. I don't know anything else left to do except delete the account and recreate it If you think of anything else, please let me know.
    Thanks -

  • Volume encrypt and erase failed; unable to delete core storage logical volume

    I was attempting to slowly migrate [MI-***] from early 2013 MBPRO to New iMac 5K w/Ceiling Level components.
    Kept going through LONG process and then told me it couldn't create [MBPRO HD Home Username] "Jim" on volume or whatever. NO FileVault enabling/ still skittish from White iMac Encrypting Nightmare days... I don't even know -- I guess it's encrypted on Airport, but not on MBPRO.
    Moved over Applications from outside User account fine; anything inside any User account NOT FINE.
    Hooked up Thunderbolt cable between two macs and restarted MBPRO in T mode... displaying the lightning BOLT on screen that moves around to reduce Burn-in.
    Was able to go onto desktop and use windows to drag n drop 190G of movies over to iMac... wondering how I was going to get all right settings over form FCP...
    Bottom Line: I only have 16G left on MBPRO and need to MOVE video editing to be exclusive on 3T Fusion on Maxed out iMac 5K.
    > Have concluded through whole process that I just want to clone the MBPRO and then delete most of the Larger Videos from MBPRO to recover some of my 760G SSD back.
    So, I grabbed my 2T Airport Extreme and Hooked up the Cat5 LAN port to Cat5 input on back of NEW iMac; Now my MBPRO doesn't have to be locked up for days, because i can use TimeMachine backup to restore or clone the two macs... i hope.
    Went into recovery mode and selected sub-Macintosh HD and attempted to erase; Result time after time after time: "Volume Encrypt and Erase failed." Reason: "Unable to delete the Core Storage logical volume." It dismounts it and I have to restart computer to get it back on. Funny thing is I don't have to use R anymore... which by the way, Command+R appears to be same as just plain old R when restarting... why is that?
    This has become a "since Christmas" runaround session for me and I am sick of it.
    Please help. I would've called Apple Care [and I did last night while driving... just to get advice on direction. I'm usually a pretty savvy PowerUser but this is driving me crazy.] but have to get things done for a meeting tomorrow. Can work on it after hours if someone can advise today on this post.
    Thx,
    Jim

    I have taken some screenshots of the error I get and the state of my HDD in Disk Utility. I did have a weird thing happen after trying to repair using single user mode, where I reopened disk utility and the partitions were NOT greyed out and displayed the correct info concerning space available etc, although after verifying it then reverted back to greyed out with no info.

  • I Receive Error DF015 Unable to delete symlink "/Library/Application Support/Adobe/APE/3.4/adbeapeco

    Hi,
    I am having issues installing Extension Managger CC.  I receive the follwoing error when attempting to install Extension Manager:
    Exit Code: 7
    Please see specific errors below for troubleshooting. For example,  ERROR: DF015 ...
    -------------------------------------- Summary --------------------------------------
    - 0 fatal error(s), 1 error(s)
    ----------- Payload: Adobe Player for Embedding 3.4 3.4.0.0 {6E6ECFC9-FE3D-4314-B937-7E25A7862899} -----------
    ERROR: DF015: Unable to delete symlink "/Library/Application Support/Adobe/APE/3.4/adbeapecore.framework/Libraries"(Seq 4)
    I don't know if the permissions on the file (and contents) are correct.  I noticed that they were pointing to a user that no longer exists.  I manually went in and made the owner and groups point to system, wheel and root and everyone, with all three having R+W access.
    Are these the correct permissions?  I was thinking of using Adobe CC Cleaner but I didn't see anything that mentioned Extension Manager.  What would the APE 3.4 be called?
    What yould you recommend?
    Thanks,
    Rocky

    Moving this discussion to the Creative Cloud Download & Install forum.
    Rocky you are correct to determine this is a file permission failure which is causing the error.  Please see Error "Exit 6" or "Exit 7" | Install log | Read, write, system file errors | CS5, CS5.5 - http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-suite/kb/error-exit-6-exit-7.html for information on how to adjust the file permissions.
    If you continue to fail with this update you may want to try applying the update in either a Root user account or a new administrator account to see if the same failure occurs.

  • Nokia C3 - unable to delete call log and some mess...

    Hi,
    I wonder if you can help me, I have tried to delete my call log from my phone however I get an "invalid selection" error message.  The logs do not have any time and date next to the names and I am unable to delete. 
    Also I have tried to delete some of my messages but all that has happened is the messages appear to be blank and I get the error "Error Occurred, Deletion not completed". 
    I have spoke to phones 4 u who I got my phone through and they have said they will have a look and it may need to go away to be sorted.  I have tried a soft and hard reset but this has not worked.  I was wondering if there was anything else I could try before I take it in. 
    Thanks in advance,
    Ann 

    I have managed to fix the problem with the messages, I backed up messages and restored them but I am still having issues with my call log. 
    Can anyone please help, I really dont want to hand my phone over to phones 4 u for 10 days. 
    Thanks

  • Unable to delete e-mail

    So here's a weird problem for you out there. A while back, I got an e-mail from a friend of mine on my iPod. After reading it, I tried to delete it. I got an error message back about being unable to delete it. I tried a couple more times, same problem. I ended up being able to delete it by taking my iPod offline, deleting it (and then emptying it from my trash), and then reconnecting. Has anyone had a similar issue before and know what might have caused this? Thanks.

    I have my GMail pushed to my iPod. Does that explain anything?

  • I am unable to delete or move emails (using gmail)

    All of the sudden I am unable to delete emails or move them to folders-tried all the ways:  delete button; mouse; message delete and message move to folder-nothing is working

    I just noticed that if I delete or move them in Mail on my iPhone, then and only then does it update properly (ie registers the changes) on Mail in my MacBook Pro.
    Is it a setting thing I've not done properly (ie my MacBook has no authority to change anything on the Cloud or something)?
