Can't empty the trash with file with strange name

I have an old file named "ˇ¡␀␀ˇ¡␀␀␀" ␀ 9 "9" which is not removed when I emptied the Recycle Bin. I tried to rename it but it does not accept the changes. Using the Terminal doesn't work either so far:

Mac - Pro: deletethis me$ find. -inum 425884608 - remove

find:-delete: rmdir(./ˇ¡␀␀ˇ¡␀␀␀"9\006␀"9): invalid argument

What can I do?

Have you tried to use the option + command + delete?

If this does not work, it may be trash to another volume, such as windows.

  • can't empty the Trash because of locked elements and certain permissions

    I want to well to empty the trash, but am getting blocked by two numbers, starting with:

    (1) ''there are some elements locked in the trash. " Do you want to remove all items, including those locked or just unlocked items? »

    Unlike previous messages or suggestions on the support Forum, this text box does not actually identify the locked objects, not their names, places or anything like that. Similarly, when I press Option with Secure Empty Trash, it scatters only my Finder window such that I can not select anything.

    I have browsed through the trash looking for ASCII files or other weird characters and have removed these (created a new folder on the desktop), but this has not changed anything.  When I try to Secure Empty Trash again, the same note appears.

    I tried the two options offered by this text box ('Remove all items' or 'Remove Unocked items'), but regardless of my choice, the following text is displayed:

    (2) the operation cannot be performed because you have not granted access to some of the elements. »

    I guess that brings me to permissions, but given that the article "troubleshooting permissions in Mac OS X - Apple support issues" has been archived and is no longer updated by Apple (from Jan 2016), I'm hoping to get information updated here.

    Please help me!

  • I can't empty the trash to Simple Mail

    This is the second time I ask this question. The last time, it only gave me a link to a non-Mozilla site, and they can't help me.

    I tried activation of the box "to empty the trash, leaving", but it has no effect.

    I've tried right-clicking on the trash folder and clicking on 'empty', but I get an error message: invalid response: no such message.

    I'm now store 250 read the messages in the trash and climbing. I need real help, please.

    As I have said here - https://support.mozilla.org/en-US/questions/964370?esab=a & s = & r = 2 & as = s - the first time you have posted using Simple email.

     There is a support thread for the Simple Mail extension over here:

    Sorry, I don't use that extension and can't help you.  

    This extension is not made by Mozilla, even if AMO hosts that extension is done by a 3rd party. There is a link on the download page - Support site - AMO, which is the link that I posted in your first question about Simple Mail. Each developer extension has a responsibility to support their expansion. We try to answer questions about the extensions that are familiar to us, but like I said before, I do not use this extension myself. And since nobody else has replied to your other two offers on Simple Mail, I can only assume that anyone else coming here is familiar with this extension.

  • How can I empty the trash when "empty trash" is not bolded

    When I go to file in the trash, empty the trash is printed light instead of bold.  What should I do?

    Hi BevGranfor,

    ·         What you mean exactly when you say "Empty trash is light Print instead of"BOLD"print"?

    ·         Did you do changes on the computer before the show?

    ·         What happens when you try to empty the trash?

    ·         You receive an error message?

    I suggest you follow the article in the Microsoft Knowledge Base and check if it works.

  • Error 50 while emptying the trash

    I can't empty the trash error 50.  It seems that the number of documents and folders contains a character "null" at the end of their names.

    Yes, null files. You use Windows at all? If so, you can delete them in Windows. Otherwise, it is best to leave them alone. There they interfere with the normal functions of your Mac, erase and reinstall OS X using Internet for recovery.

    B: what process stops responding when you click the delete key?

    C: it may simply mean that the file permissions are not configured to allow you to access the files on a flash drive.  Do you know if there are security settings applied?

  • I have a Nikon D 810 camera and Photoshop CS5.  I downloaded camera 8.8 Raw and DNG converter.  I can't open the raw (.nef) files, and treat them with the DNG Converter. What's not?

    I have a Nikon D 810 camera and Photoshop CS5.  I downloaded camera 8.8 Raw and DNG converter.  I can't open the raw (.nef) files, and treat them with the DNG Converter. What's not?  Thank you!

    As I said earlier, the DNG Converter works ONLY on files, not on files.

    Do not target the individual files.  Target Of THE FOLDER that contains them.

    Make sure that said FILE DO NOT contain any other files , you have already settled before, or your settings will be eliminated when re-converted to DNG.

    No need to write long explanations.  More messages are, the more chances you have of receiving relevant responses.
