Vob bup ifo irs files that will not delete

Hi, this is a dirty little problem. I need help to remove these files. When I attempt to remove them I am given an advisory saying 'I dont have sufficient privilidges to remove' even though I am the administrator. The files are large .bup, .ifo, .vob and .irs that I want off my PB12. I have tried everything I can think of, including file/get info/and changing properties. Anyone got any ideas????

Guys, I was almost there and now I've fixed it. The solution was in the File/Get Info detail. I did not realise that you can change individual file rights but it does not allow you to delete unless you change the rights to the folder in which the files are held. In fact if you just change the folder rights it gives you the option to change the rights to all files contained within. If i'd figured that at the start it would have saved a few hours of my life on this planet. But hey ho, as its Mac I'll forgive. PS Jobs; the iPhone is simply outstanding.

  • I am trying to clear files from my computer. I have a bunch of .m4v protected files that will not delete. They are lectures from college that I do not need anymore and would like to delete them to make room on my computer.

    I am trying to clear files from my computer. I have a bunch of .m4v protected files that will not delete. They are lectures from college that I do not need anymore and would like to delete them to make room on my computer. I have looked at the help sites and they seem to give directions to change files that people are saving in the future and not regarding past files. I am unable to change anything about the file including the name, so I can not change these past files from .m4v to something else which is deletable such as .mp4 etc. Any help would be much appreciated!!!!

    Well, most of what we can tell you is already stated in the message you are getting.  A phone can only sync with one library at a time.  You have apparently synced your phone with a different iTunes library in the past, or changes have been made to this library so the phone no longer recognizes it as the library with which it was synced.  To know which you will have to provide the information.
    If you bought them using the AppleID you use with this phone it may simply be easier to re-download them directly to the phone rather than sync them, though you will want to resolve that issue at some point.

  • How can I save a page offline? the "complete" option in "save as" produces a folder w/ 36 kb files that will not open.

    the "complete" option in "save as" produces a folder w/ 36 kb files that will not open anything - can't I save the page as a single offline file?

    This is not really an answer just my comments on your question.
    I am sure I recollect efforts being made to get mhtml to work with FF.
    Probably the important thing to remember about .mhtml is that if other browsers do support it they may need addons, and may not necessarily render the content correctly/consistently.
    There are FF addons designed for archiving webpages, you could try them, but that then assumes the recipient has the same software.
    You could simply save the page from FF to your XP pc; then offline open it with and save it using IE, before then emailing using FF, and attaching the .mht or mhtml file that you have now created on your PC.
    As an alternative method, in some cases it could be worth considering taking a screen grab of the required page, then sending that to the recipient as a single email attatchment using either a bitmap or jpeg file format for instance.
    Something such as an airline booking may be designed with a print option, possibly it could be worthwile looking at sending the print file itself as an email attachment.

  • I need to install iWork 09 so I can open the many pages document files that will NOT open under the new pages 5. Mavericks will not accept an install from my iWork's 09 CD. How do I get around this?

    I need to install iWork 09 so I can open the many pages document files that will NOT open under the new pages 5. Mavericks will not accept an install from my iWork's 09 CD. How do I get around this?

    Hi, I'm helping StringSinger2 with this problem.
    The previously installed version is Pages 3.0.3 (the same as from iWork 08). This version (Pages 3.0.3/iWork 08) is incompatible with Pages 5.
    That is why it would be helpful to install iWork 09, which is the version between the two. It will open the older 08 files, and its saved files are readable by the new Pages5.
    SO...
    When I try to install iWorks 09 from my retail DVD the error message is "the installer is damaged". (I know the dvd is good, I installed iWorks09 to my laptop today.) Is the "installer" part of the system files? And - If that is damaged is there a patch for that?
    Many Thanks!

  • Illustrator CS4 - frequently generates corrupt EPS files that will not parse

    I have used many versions of Illustrator prior to and including the CS lines.  I am currently running CS4 and this is the first time I have experienced this issue.  Approximately half of my EPS formatted illustrator files will not parse.  I use Quark Xpress 7 for my layout (never liked any of the Indesign programs).  If I try to generate a PDF with my CS4 generated EPS files placed at least 60% of the time the placed file will corrupt the PDF export resulting in no PDF being generated. 
    Further to this PDF export issue, if I attempt to parse the same EPS file into Photoshop, Photoshop will give me the error message "Could not complete your request because Photoshop was unable to parse the PostScript" and it will abort the attempt to open the file.
    Anyone else having Illustrator EPS file issues?
    Background info (if needed) Dual 2.0 Ghz, PowerMac G5, 8 gb RAM, running Tiger 10.4.11
    I have attached a sample Illustrator file that will not Parse.  It will open in Illustrator but not parse into Photoshop or if placed in Quark will not parse and allow for a PDF to be exported.

    Thanks for taking the time to write Steve. 
    I understand that I can drag and drop between programs.  Ultimately, when attempting to parse an EPS in photoshop I am merely doing it to confirm that the EPS is indeed corrupt. 
    As mentioned previously, I predominately use Quark Xpress for my page layout program and until I installed CS4 I have had zero complications with using EPS files.  Now I quite commonly can not export PDFs due to corrupt EPS files. 
    My question to the public is I am alone in this glitch or do others experience the same issue.  My first thoughts are that CS4 has a glitch and I should be expecting an update in the near future.  But, if I am the only person suffering from this issue than maybe I should be looking at my own software.

  • New to the Apple and I want to set up a user account that will not delete the guest users files and allow and preserve their personal settings after log out. Is this possible?

    New to the Apple and I want to set up a user account that will not delete the guest users files and allow and preserve their personal settings after log out. Is this possible?

    The built-in guest user account will not do this. Simply create a new standard account and call it "Guest" or "Guest Users" or whatever you like.
    Go to System Preferences > Users& Groups, click "+" to make a new account.

  • How do I delete a desktop icon that will not delete?

    I have ab Excel ICON on my destop that will not delete and cannot be moved.....
    Any ideas? I think Excel is corrupted, but the rest of the functions work okay....
    Thanks all
    Dan

    Better yet, I'll just give you the command and tell you how to enter it.
    Open terminal by opening up Launchpad and clicking on Utilities and then Terminal.
    Type this
         rm -R Desktop/NAME_OF_FILE
    replace NAME_OF_FILE with the the name of the file (including caps) and press Tab then Enter
    If that doesn't work, let me know

  • Itunes crashed and I have all my music on my Ipod and computer in files that will not all open, that is irreplacable. I do not remember ever using a encyrtion code so I am confused on saving my music.what do I do?

    Very Frustrated and Wasted Money Please Help Me...... Itunes crashed and all of my libraries would not download, the songs that did came back 3/4 times which caused me to put everything on my new Hard Drive,I am have a bunch of files and libraries from Itunes with music that will not upload back to Itunes and I have a bunch on my IPOD that is irreplacable....On top of all these this I do not remember my encryption code but never remember locking it either. Please tell me what to do to save my music or reset the code and do a new one and how do I save this music,I see it on my library when I plug it up.Also what file do I look for for all the purchased music I had? Also my Remote acts up which never happened to me as well...

    What do you mean by encryption code?
    - Do yu mean the for some reason when you want to restore from backup iTunes asks for the password?
    - Do you mean that it has a screen-lock passcode and you do not remember the passscode?
    Please provide more clear information. I do not really understand your poblem. I can't tell whee the music is, or what will not "upload".

  • How to fix a Domain file that will not open

    We have a Domain file on our Mac Mini that will not open - iWeb keeps saying that it cannot be found, even though it is in the Library/Application Support/iWeb folder. I transferred the Domain file to my GS, and I get the same response - if I switch back to the original Domain file (on the G5), all is well. Obviously, the Domain file from the Mac Mini has gotten corrupted, but cannot determine the exact problem (though I think it may be the index.xml.gz file). I've reinstalled iWeb, checked permissions, deleted (and re-created) the associated plist files - nothing. Unfortunately, our company's web pages are in that Domain file, and cannot perform some much-needed updates. Any help that can be offered would be most appreciated!!

    Have you tried double-clicking on the Domain file?

  • Advice on .jpg files that will not import

    I have .jpg files that are not importing into LR even though they open fine on my Mac. Is there anyway I can find out why LR will not import them? Any advice for dealing with images like this?
    Thanks.

    Usually it's due to Lr perceiving some file wonkiness that your Mac is less picky about (Lr prefers to keep details of such to itself...). ExifTool could probably fix it, without re-creating image data, if you knew how, but it might be simplest to just re-save the file using any software that will work, maybe save in tiff format, to prevent quality loss due to re-jpeg'ing a jpeg, and maybe metadata will be re-written in a format more palatable for Lightroom.

  • CR2 FILES THAT WILL NOT OPEN

    Hi,  I find my Camera Raw CR2 files will not open any more.  I use CS4 on a pc.  One camera I have been using is Powershot S100.  I read that ACR 5.7 was appropriate for my CS4 version of photoshop, but it will not work with this cameras files.     I read the tech notes and downloaded ACR 5.7 anyway .  I installed it in program files where the old plug in was located, but, as I feared, it wont open the CR2 files.  I then searched for the correct DNG file, which appeared to be 6.5, but it will not work with the powershot either.  Is there any DNG file that might work, or is there another solution short of buying a new version of photoshop, which I do not need or want? 

    Sorry, the question you asked is not about FormsCentral. So I suggest you to post a discussion in the forums of Camera Raw or Photoshop to get the answer: http://forums.adobe.com/community/cameraraw.
