Unable to move item into trash

This message could not be moved to the mailbox trash- i get thus error whenever i try and delee my emails. I cant see any settings bu i have obviosly missed somethin somewhere

Try going into Settings > Mail, Contacts, Calendars. Then select the account on the right-hand side of that screen, select Account, then Advanced, Deleted Mailbox, and under On The Server tap the 'Trash' folder so that it gets a tick against it - then come out of that series of popups by tapping on the relevant buttons at the top of them and then see if you can delete emails.

Script that moves items to trash after importing to iTunes

Hi,
I have zero experience in this, all I have done is just from having googled stuff, so please be patient if I'm asking stupid questions. I have tried searching the forum first but I can't find the answer to this question.
I download music from various (LEGAL) websites and I don't want to have to manually move it into iTunes. My aim is that every time an .mp3 file is downloaded into my downloads folder, it is automatically moved into my iTunes music library and added to a 'downloaded' playlist, then deleted from my downloads folder.
This has taken me ages because after I got it working I did an iTunes update which ruined it all. I tried to edit the offending actions but ended up just downgrading iTunes to the previous version via Time Machine.
I am using OS X version 10.6.7 and iTunes 10.2.1
The point I am at now is that it is all working, except that the files are not moved to the trash at the end, so every time it runs it adds the new file plus all the previous files again. Please can someone help me modify my script or my automator application so that this will happen.
Also, is it possible to have the automator application only run when music files are downloaded? Because at the moment it runs every time I download anything at all.
Here is what I have done:
I have set up a folder action so that this script is attached to my downloads folder:
on adding folder items to this_folder after receiving added_items
          tell me
                    do shell script "open -a /Users/Louisa/Documents/Workflows/justdownloadstoplaylist.app"
          end tell
end adding folder items to
Then I have saved this Automator workflow as the application justdownloadstoplaylist.app
*Get specified Finder items*
Louisa>Downloads
*Get Folder Contents*
(Repeat for each subfolder found)
*Import Files into Itunes*
(Existing playlist - "downloaded")
*Move Finder items to Trash*
Thank you for your help.

Sorry, there was an error with my workflow in that saving to the variable should have come after filtering the items:
Folder Action receives files and folders added to Downloads
Get Folder Contents { Repeat for each subfolder found } -- in case a folder was added
Filter Finder Items { File extension is mp3 } -- just get mp3 files
Set Value of Variable { Variable: Original Items } -- save the filtered mp3 files for later
Import Files into iTunes { Existing playlist Downloaded }
Get Value of Variable { Variable: Original Items } (Ignore Input) -- get back the mp3 files
Move Finder Items to Trash
If you are using your application in a situation where it is already getting items passed to it (e.g. dropping items onto the application, or using a Service or Folder Action), adding an action at the beginning that gets the same items will result in doubling up the items in your input list. If you are getting confused about what is getting passed to your application, you can use a Choose from List action at the beginning of your workflow to show the items.
If you just saved your workflow as an application, dropping items onto it will pass them to your workflow, otherwise you will need to add statements to your folder action script to tell the workflow to open items passed to the folder action. As I mentioned in my earlier post, you won't need to use your folder action script or do anything else to get items passed to your workflow if it is created using the Folder Action template.

Iphone 5s - IBM Notes Traveler 9.01 -Unable to move messages to trash after a few hours

I have a problem with one of my Iphone 5s users. Everything was working with his IPhone 4S, but the phone died and so they replaced it with a 5S
We are using an IBM Lotus Notes 9.01 Server (latest FP patch) and Traveler 9.01 FP4 with the iphone 5 s.
On his Iphone 5S we install Notes Traveler... Everything works on it, but after a few hours we not able to delete messages on the IPhone. When he clicks Delete on a message on his Iphone, it comes back saying it is "Unable to Move the message"
If I remove Traveler and reinstall it, he can delete the messages for a few minutes or even a few hours, but then it comes back and says it cannot move the messages when we try to delete the email on the Iphone 5S.   The Iphone had   7.1.1 OS... I updated it to latest Apple 7.1.2 OS on it.. Same problem.   We also have an AOL account on the Iphone ....that works fine...      All other Traveler users on Iphones 4S or 5S users are working Fine...
I had IBM look at it. They did some testing and the email deletions only appeared on the logs when   it synchronized to Traveler, but when the problem occurs... it never did show anything in the Notes logs, about the Delete request.   They are saying it is an Apple problem.
I even reset his IPhone 5 S to factory defaults and re-setup Notes Traveler and after a few minutes or a few hours... When he deletes a email he gets the Cannot move the messages again.   I opened a bug report with Apple by never heard back from them. All other functions of the email work..   He can send and receive emails... He just cannot delete after a few hours. I ran checks on he email database and everything comes up OK...

That's odd. You will probably have to contact Apple support on this one. I'm not sure if their is a problem with your account or a server glitch at their end but in either case, they will probably have to look into it for you. You can reach them here: http://www.apple.com/support/icloud/contact/.

Email keeps posting unable to move messages to trash

Unable to move message into new folder in Mail 3.1

Hi
I just added a new folder in Mail, but cannot move a message from my inbox (IMAP) into it. I can move messages into other, older folders, but not into any folders I created today. This is happening with both local and IMAP folders created today.
Any suggestions?
Thanks!
D

Okay, here's what I find:
My home directory: drwxr-xr-x+ owner=me
~/Library: drwx------+ owner=me
~/Library/Mail: drwx------ owner=me
Continue to the local mailboxes:
~/Library/Mail/Mailboxes: drwx------ owner=me
~/Library/Mail/Mailboxes/(top-most level): drwx------ owner=me
~/Library/Mail/Mailboxes/(top-most)/(next level): drwx------ owner=me
That gets us to the info I gave previously, which I already fixed using chown.
If we continue to the +remote (IMAP)+ mailbox:
~/Library/Mail/(imap account): drwx------ owner=me
~/Library/Mail/(imap account)/INBOX: drwx------ owner=me
And that again brings us to the level where the original problem was (and the individual directory that I have corrected using chown.)
So I can fix each directory individually using chown, but I'd like to fix the cause.
Thanks!

IMovie: Unable to "Move Rejected to Trash"

When rejecting a clip in iMovie, I then found it impossible to move that clip to the trash. Clicking the "Move Rejected to Trash" button had absolutely no effect.
I found that the reason for this is that I had imported those movies from iPhoto, where I had originally brought them in from the camera. Closing iMovie, deleting the files in iPhoto, emptying the trash in iPhoto, and then relaunching iMovie solved the problem.

Any suggestions as to what is happening?
This seems to be a periodic bug for many users. Best advice is not to import what you don't plan to use. Unfortunately, it is not always easy to know which is which beforehand. If you haven't started building you project yet, you can always select the entire clip in the Event and use the "Contextual Menu" to reveal the location of the file you wish to delete. Then, in the finder, you can delete the file, delete the associated "Cache" and "Thumbnails" folders, close the application, and re-open it. Re-opening the application forces iMovie to re-thumbnail the event without the missing but unwanted file. (Have not tried this after using any of the Event contents in a Project as I assume it might break the project path references and I have never been that interested in taking a chance just to find out.)

Unable to move email to trash on iphone!

Everytime I attempt to delete email, I receive the message that I cannot move them to trash. Any suggestions? This started happening after I upgraded to 2.2.

I found others who have this problem. It has to do with 2.2 messing with the Trash folder. The solution others have posted and is working so far with me is to go to settings, choose the account, go to advanced, go to deleted mail, then if it is a POP account, retap the on my iPhone button. I tapped somewhere else and then retapped the on my iPhone button just to be sure. Then erasing worked. If it is something called iMap which is guess is more corporate email systems, then retapping On the Server will reset it.

Unable to move messages to trash

New iPad. When I go to delete a Mail message, it says it is unable. No explanation. Anyone?

None of the answers already given seem to relate to my problem.
I swipe the emails I want deleted and they go to trash
If I then go back into the main menu the number of emails on the screen moves from for the sake of exampe,16 to 5 (representing the deleted number) but then switches back to the original number, 16.
Even if I go to the trash box and press delete all, they will disappear but resurface in the inbox.
Anyone any ideas??

Missing files on external hard drive and unable to delete items in trash

When my external hard drive is connected I am unable to eject it because it says it is in use. I have tried shutting every program, but the message still occurs. I have also noticed that I can't empty my trash can when the external hard drive is connected, and that it appears empty when it is ejected. There are also missing folders on the drive. I am able to see the timemachine backup folder, but I can't open it properly to access the data.

With the External HD connected to the AEBS, I went to File -> New -> Folder and named the folder. I had done this a few times, as well as created a few new ones using Picasa and cutting/pasting them into the appropriate folder. I did that a few times. Then one more time I went to File -> New -> Folder on the EHD (not Picasa), named it and hit enter. I got a message saying can't do it because folder doesn't exist. Properties showed correct amount of GB used/remaining. so I know it's there. Latrer I connected directly to PC and folders were there and could be manipulated. I tried reconnecting EHD to USB hub in AEBS and it won't show up as a drive under Computer, but under Network -> <AEBS name> -> drive name.

Is it possible to move items into Family calendar?

Is there a way to move the items I have in my Calendar into the new Family Calendar?

Hello richardjamesc,
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
To move an event from one calendar to another, simply follow the steps below.
Move an event to any of your calendars.
Note: If you move an event from a calendar that’s not hosted on an Exchange server to a calendar that is, some event information may be saved in the Note field because some options aren’t available in Exchange calendars.
Do one of the following:
Double-click the event, then choose a calendar from the pop-up menu in the top-right corner.
Drag the event to a new calendar in the Calendar list.
Select one or more events. Control-click one of the events, choose Calendar, then choose a calendar.
To move a copy of an event, select the event, then choose Edit > Copy. Select the calendar where you want the event, then choose Edit > Paste.
Calendar (Mavericks): Move events to another calendar
Take care,
Alex H.

Unable to move pictures into albums via iPhone

the past few months i have not been able to move pictures from my camera roll into albums via my iphone...the albums show up, but they are not selectable. i have restored my phone, purchaced OS Lion, and have all my software up to date, and still nothing....can anyone help?

You can place a Camera Roll photo in a user created photo album on the iPhone only. You cannot place a Camera Roll photo in an album transferred from your computer. You do that on your computer followed by a sync.

When I move items to trash the trash does not register as full and therefore I cannot empty it. My Mac is almost full so any help on this will be gratefully received.

Hi,
I have moved items to my trash however they are not registering in my trash and I therefore cannot delete them.
My Mac is almost full and so any help on this is gratefully received.
Many thanks

Millicentmac,
would you flesh out “almost full” above? That is, what size internal disk do you have, and how much free space remaining do you have?
