IMac :: Can't Delete Trash / Saying Don't Have Permission To Delete
Mar 6, 2009I dual boot my iMac using Boot Camp and I'm having problems deleting a bunch of files in my Trash. A short history. I purchased a OWC external hard drive case and I've been going through my old hard drives which originally were used in my Windows XP computer. The drives were contaminated with Windows viruses and so I installed the drives one by one in the OWC case and proceeded to delete files and programs which I didn't need in each drive while in OS X and keeping the files I wanted to save in each respective drive. Now what I'm faced with is a Trash bin filled with Windows XP software (including Windows XP itself) which I cannot delete because OS X says I don't have permission to delete those files.

Intel Mac :: Can't Find User Account When Trying To Delete
May 6, 2012I'm using an iMac computer.Â
And the problem I'm having is the following:Â
I'm trying to delete an user account from my computer following the steps from apple.Â

So at step 3 they say I have to click on the user account I want to delete. But I cannot see the user account in the list. Â
It is the only account with an password, but that person doesn't know the password even with the clues for it. Besides that I currently don't have the option to contact him.Â

Intel Mac :: Trying To Delete Files / Locked Item That Can't Find
May 24, 2012I am working on clearing off some hard drive space, and my first step was to remove some unneeded items from an external HD to make some space there. When I drag the folder I'm trying to delete to the trash, I first get a message that the items will be immediately deleted (I think because my internal HD is quite full?) and that's fine because I do want to delete these, so I say OK. It starts the process of deleting, and counting how many files it's deleting, then gives me a message that the operation cannot be completed because item "xx" is locked. The only solutions I have found on here involve unlocking "xx" but my problem is, when I search the computer and/or the external for item "xx" nothing is found. I'm really not sure if the issue with item "xx" is an issue with the drive or with the computer, or what to do about it?? If it's the drive, I suppose I could back up what I do want to save from the drive then re-format it?

Applications :: Won't Work To Delete Mails In Imail / Can't Find Settings
May 19, 2009I have recently given up on anything PC and moved to Mac. Mostly I am very happy with my decision but a couple of things niggle me and I don't seem to be able to change them.
In imail when delete an email from any of my mail accounts or the inbox, imail automatically selects the next newest email. I would like it to select the next oldest email. Is there anyway of changing this?
I know this is quite petty! but I'm just used to it working that way in outlook and keep deleting email I want to keep.

May 25, 2010I forgot my admin password on my iMac recently and so i used the reboot with OS X snow leopard install disc to reset the keychain, but now on my login screen, it used to be just my account name, there is one called "Other" so i went into accounts in system preferences and tried to delete it but it isnt there?is really annoying me p.s. the "other account" isnt actually an account it says "Other" and when you click on it asks for your username and password...so i type in the admin accounts name and password (admin account is the only one on this computer), and it just opens up my admin account.

May 1, 2010I am hoping someone out there would be willing to assist me by getting a dump of their system SMC keys so I can do a comparison against my system. Ideally it needs to be done on a 2008 Alu 20in iMac with SMC version 1.29f1
You need to have SMCFanControl on your system and know where the smcFanControl.app is located.
Open Terminal
cd to the directory that has the smcFanControl.app
cd smcFanControl.app/Contents/Resources
type ./smc -l
select and copy the output and save/post
exit terminal
OS X :: Unable To Delete Bumptop From IMac
Jan 28, 2010I am pretty new at the whole iMac thing and the Mac OSX.. I need advice deleting applications and programs. I read somewhere that all you need to do is drag and drop the icon in the trash and it should be gone. Well I tried that with Bumptop and it didn't work. I liked the program a lot and I thought it looked cool but I don't have enough icons on my desktop to run it and make use of it. I dragged the icon to the trash but now I am stuck in Bumptop even with it in the trash?
