Weird Unix-files in the waste-bin

I have a fairly new MacBook and just found a couple of weird looking unix-files in my waste-bin. Obviously the names are quite odd, not to talk about the dates they were supposedly last changed. I'm pretty sure, those are no files/programmes I deleted at any point, so I'm slightly confused what to make of this. I only stumbled over them when deleting the content of the waste-bin and being told that it contains some "protected" files.
Any advice on this would be much appreciated!
Thank you!

Here's a screenshot of the content.

  • I have sent a file to the trash bin. When I come to empty the trash bin everything goes out except this one particular file and I get a note saying the file is 'in use' but it is not. How can I delete this file from trash?

    I have a Macbook Pro with OS X Lion 10.7.2. I have sent a work file to the trash bin along with many other files. When I empty the trash this one particular file remains and I get a message that this file is still in use. I have tried returning the file to my documents, opening it, closing it and then sending it to trash and again I try to empty trash but the same message comes up - Q - How can I trash this file permanently?

    First just try logging out and back in.  Whatever is holding on to it may not be running after the logout thus freeing it so you can trash it after logging back in.
    You might also try Trash It!
    Lastly, look at the following for suggestions:

  • HT1364 help I just completed this task to free up my hard disc and be able to upgrade my iTunes but when I re-opened iTunes it is a blank new account! When I copied the iTunes file to the recycle bin it made me effectively empty as I copied over as it was

    Hey can someone help???
    I just completed this task (support.apple.com/kb/HT1364) moving my music to an external HD to free up my PC hard disc and all went well until I re-opened iTunes and it is a blank new account!
    I also don't can't access anything from the recycle bin as when I copied the iTunes file to the recycle bin it said it was too large to copy over so made me effectively empty as I copied over as it was so big.
    Any help gratefully recieved or where I can get some, I am going round in circles. I also don't know which itunes operating system I have, it is around 3 years old.

    hi i had the same problem today when i updated my itunes to latest version. however, i have just found my songs in the 'itunes media' folder. this was accessed through 'my music'  then keep clicking through until you find itunes media and all my library songs were in there and i then just added these files to my library and all were restored however, i have lost all my playlists but at least my 700 songs are back. very dissapointed with apple that they have let this happen with their latest update, the previous version was miles better than this one . hope you find them. stevo

  • Cannot move files to the trash bin

    Hello,
    I recently upgraded from Snow Leopard to Mountain Lion and have since also changed the administrator on our MacBook Pro. My account (formerly the admin) can no longer move files to the trash bin. My wife's account (now admin) has no problem doing so. When I try dragging a file to the trash I get "Finder wants to make changes, type the administrator's name and password to allow this."
    Not something I wan't to be doing every time. Please help.
    Thanks,
    the RouleauFamily

    Thanks for your reply. The permissions looked fine.
    Here is the fix I found at http://www.thexlab.com/faqs/trash.html which worked:
    If the affected account is:
    Then type the Terminal command:
    Your Admin account:
    sudo rm -ri ~/.Trash
    Another user account:
    sudo rm -ri /Users/user_name/.Trashwhere user_name is the short name of the affected account.
    Warmly,
    Olivier

    You installed an app right? The menu options are a bit different for s60v3 and s60v5 or s60v2 devices, so the thing is go to the application manager, it is inside Menu>Settings (or tools). If I remember correctly, s60v3 devices have the menu>tools>phone>applications. However I could be mistaken (you could check your manual). Anyway, once you get to the application manager, look for the particular app you want to remove and select options>uninstall.

  • Show organizer files in the project bin.

    In the project bin the default option is to "show open files".  But there is an additional oprion in the drop down menu "Show files from Orgainzer".  I am just learning to use elements 8 and am reading a book that describes this and see the drop down menu in my program but when I choose that option nothing is displayed.  The open file thumbnail goes away but nothing from orgaizer replaces it.  Is this a bug in the program or am I doing something wrong?   Julie

    Sorry for the perhaps silly question, but did you send multiple files from the organizer to the editor? It's not just a shortcut to see all the photos in the organizer--it only shows the images you've sent over for editing. Are you saying you did send a bunch of files and they still don't appear? If you click back to the organizer do those images show the red band with a lock on it?

  • I moved itunes file to external hard drive and want to move the file on my pc to recycle bin. When I move i get an error message that it cannot delete ituneshelper.dll access is denied. Can I move that file to the recycle bin?

    I am trying to free up space on my pc and moving itunes files to external hard drive. I have followed instructions and believe I have file copied to new drive, but I am having trouble moving file to recycle bin as the instructions say. I am getting the following error message: cannot delete ituneshelper.dll:access denied, make sure disk is not full or write protected and file not in use. I know the file is not in use when trying to move. Any help would be most appreciated. I am on Windows XP.

    Yes. And you should not have moved that folder. Put it back. To move your iTunes library move the folder from User's Music.

  • Error while transferring data to a Unix file using the FILTER 'gzip'

    I have to particularly use the 'gzip' filter to compress the files that are placed in Unix directory through ABAP code. This filter was working fine initially and I was able to get the files saved correctly however lately I am getting a short dump at the TRANSFER command. the runtime error 'DATASET_PIPE_CLOSED'. Kindly guide me as to how i can avoid this.

    there is o relation of infoobject name in flat file and infoobjet name at BW side.
    please check with the object in the BW and their lengths and type of the object and check your flat file weather u have the same type there,
    now check the sequence of the objects in the transfer rules  and activate them.
    there u go.

  • I have accidentally downloaded the Mackeeper to my I mac and am now unable to get rid ofit. I have tried dragging it to the waste bin but it wont play ball any ideas?

    Help i am unable to remove it from my computer

    MacKeeper is highly invasive malware* that can de-stablize your operating system. It is also unethically marketed and a rip-off. Positive reviews of it are known to have been paid for by the developers, Zeobit.
    Further opinion on it and how to uninstall MacKeeper malware:
    http://applehelpwriter.com/2011/09/21/how-to-uninstall-mackeeper-malware/
    Do NOT download or use the ‘MacKeeper uninstaller’ from the Zeobit site, as this will cause even more damage to your operating system.
    This is also worth reading:

  • My iMac has locked up. I accidentally asked to restore an item in the waste bin and everything stopped. I tried powering down and up. Also tried the safe load. Shift power up restart for troublesome third party programs. Still no luck

    Please disregard this as persistence worked. Safe mode and restart finally worked. Best wishes to everyone out there who sees this.

    Hi Hussien,
    Please help me that
    1. Create a file under the %FND_TOP%\bin directory called testhost.cmd
    In the file put the following two lines:
    ls >> testhost.txt
    exit
    2. From the %FND_TOP%\bin directory, do the following:
    copy fndcpesr.exe testhost.exe
    I understood the above 2 steps, the below one, is making confusion. Can you explain that what application i have to choose. 3. Register testhost (use 'testhost' for the Execution File Name) as a concurrent executable in Oracle Applications.
    4. Register a testhost host program as a concurrent program in Oracle Applications.
    5. Add the program to your report group.
    Awaiting for your explanation clearly to go ahead.
    Please explain me that which application i can choose while define the executable and program.
    awaiting.
    Thanks
