I have around 1650 items in my trash bin, tried to secure erase, but after deleting the first ones it stopped and 16305 are still in the bin.

When I boot my MacBook Air I get this message, twice. Insecure Startup Item disabled
/Library/StartupItems/Intego Backup Assistantâ has not been started because it does not have the proper security settings. How do I disable these messages? Intego is no longer needed and most files have been deleted.
I can't seem to delete out of date bookmarks from the bookmark folder.

I have MacBook Pro version 10.9.4. I can't add or delete items on my dock . Whenever I try to press the icon and try to drag it, it shows a option bar. I want to edit my dock, but I can't. I tried to reset my .plist, killall Dock, and set my dock options to default, but the dock still refuses to move.

Woke up this morning late, so I didn't check the weather online like I usually do. Unplugged everything from my MBP (including an external display) while it was still asleep, tossed it in my back after it slept again, and headed out the door. When I got to class, all of my desktop items are gone. Macintosh HD, mounted dmg's, some files, and some other things are all gone off my desktop. They obviously still exist and I can open them from Finder

I've been organizing some files on my external hard drive and after I had all the files where I wanted, I had to delete all the individual folders that they were in. They are all aliases which is really weird and I have no idea what happened. When I try to empty trash nothing happens, no pop up or anything tell me what's wrong. When I tried to secure empty trash I get this

I have a few items in my downloads stack, but 3 of them that don't exist in the folder anymore are just sitting there. I can try and move em out but i get the "circle with a slash" thing. And if i drag them to the trash, nothing happens. If i click on them to open it says "application cannot be found"

I deleted all of my Connect 360 folders, and removed it from the preference panel, leaving me with just a Connect360.prefPane sitting in my trash. When I try to empty the trash, I get the following messages:
The operation can't be completed because the item "Connect360Helper" is in use.
The operation can't be completed because the item "NRCommon" is in use.
The operation can't be completed because the item "EDCommon" is in use.
The only applications I have running are Adium, Bowtie, iTunes, Safari, Transmission, and Finder. I thought it might still be linked to finder, so I quit that and tried to empty, still not luck. So I don't think it's being used in any of my applications.
