Cannot move to the trash in the finder

Since the installation of OSX 10.11.4 I can't move a file to the trash in the finder. Is the only option that is displayed when I select "move to trash".

"Are you sure you want to delete [filename]"- and a 'yes' deletes the file.

I want to move files to the trash, as always, I have and delete them when I emptied the Recycle Bin. It is a safety net that is completely missing today.

I checked the permissions and other suggestions in your forum and nothing solves the problem.

Seems to be that something related to 10.11.4.

In the Finder, right or control click on a file and then click on: move to the trash

Then, you can empty the trash when you want.

  • Cannot move all the files as windows explore crashes - it happens every time when you use an external hard drive (several readers have been tested and work on other machines)

    I need to move files on my laptop, but windows crashes Explorer everytime I try this. This also applies when you use an alternative program to explore. It didn't happen last week but regularly spent the last six months. It is now that I need to migrate these files (mainly the images, but also the music and office documents).

    The error in the Event Viewer log States the following: start the application failing application Explorer.EXE, version 6.0.6002.18005, time stamp 0x49e01da5, failed module unknown, version 0.0.0.0, time stamp 0x00000000, exception code 0xc0000005, offset 0x02db07e0, process id 0 x 1650 error, time 0x01ca547fd1de6851.

    Make sure that the device is compatible with Vista, the Vista Compatibility Center: http://www.microsoft.com/windows/compatibility/windows-vista/default.aspx.

    If you need to get pilots to leave the computer dealer or the manufacturer of the device (NOT of Microsoft Updates).  In fact, you must disable automatic updates in Windows Update driver as follows: http://www.addictivetips.com/windows-tips/how-to-disable-automatic-driver-installation-in-windows-vista/. Follow these steps: http://pcsupport.about.com/od/driverssupport/ht/driverdlmfgr.htm.  Once you have the drivers, you can install them via the Manager device as follows: http://www.vistax64.com/tutorials/193584-device-manager-install-driver.html.  You need to find the NAS device and the NICs in particular - but it would not hurt to look at all the when you're there.

    Go to start / Control Panel / Add Hardware and select the first option (recommended) to see if the system can detect the device.  If this does not work, choose the second and provide the information requested on the device.  You will be asked for drivers - have their practice.  Follow the prompts to install the device (NAS).  Make sure that it is plugged in and turned on when you do so, or he not be recognized.  It's the hard way of installing a hardware device, but your system obviously isn't automatically recognize it then do it manually. Here is a brief tutorial on how to do so: http://www.web-articles.info/e/a/title/Windows-Vista :-Running-the-Add-Hardware-Wizard /.

    I hope this helps.  Good luck! Lorien - a - MCSE/MCSA/network + / A +.

  • Launch of non-functional quick toolbar. Folder of application data for this profile accidentally moved to the Cookies folder, cannot move to the right place and make quickstart functional again.

    Toolbar start fast is the only app that has problems.  I can't start him because I have no permissions.  As this occurred, the Application Data folder somehow finished in the Cookies folder for this account.  It cannot be carried over to the location appropriate without disabling the Quick Launch toolbar.

  • Cut the bottom of the window. Cannot move in the view.

    My wife is visually Imapired and can not see the screen unless it's on a low resolution. When we open some windows may not be resized or scrolled down so we can get to the bottom of the window unless that change us to a higher resolution.

    Is it possible to move it to the top in sight? We tried Alt + space years moving window with the button up arrow but it just goes back down.

    I'll post a picture in the moment.

    Set the screen resolution to the recommended, then, in the same place as the resolution, click on the link on the far left called "make the text an other superior items.  This aid of CIO, rather than resolution, but it keeps your space and keeps things crisp and clear.  You will not be disappointed.
