Vashaun, if you have systems networked, you can use one system to delete items from annother. this seems to work better. You still have to empty the trash on that system though. permissions repair is a part of sisc utility found in the utilities folder on your Mac. go to applications folder and you will find utilities, open that and open disc utility. find permissions repair and click it, find the disc you want to repair in the list, tab to and click repair disc permissions, click repair not verify. It takes a few minutes. this should be done when you have installed an application, performed an update or deleted a lot of files.

restart your computer, run permissions repair, move the item to the trash. How big is the item? It might be better to do it through the network.On Oct 9, 2007, at 7:38 PM, VaShaun Jones wrote:Yeah, but after trying to move something to the trash it says it is still in use. I am sure it doesn't take over 24 hours to delete nine items. Is this normal and if not what should I do?On Oct 9, 2007, at 5:54 PM, marylee925@xxxxxxx wrote:That is normal, not good, but normal.
