I wonder if you can help. G4 450 512 MB OSX 10.2 Cubase SE
I loaded up loads of wavs and copied them on to the desktop . Then I dragged and dropped them on to the Keyboard User interface of Halion. and saved loads of different samples as a Bank of instruments Now I cant send these desktop files to the trash it wont delete them , says i do not have user access. So now I have deleted these banks but it still will not let me get rid of the individual WAVS, even to put them in a folder of any sorts. Ive got hundreds of them on the desk top!!! Any ideas,? |

It sounds like a permission problem.
You should be able to create a folder (ie "folder_to_delete")"on the desktop, then move all your wav file in this folder . Then go in the terminal (Applications/utilities) and type: sudo rm -rf Desktop/folder_to_delete type your admin password, and it's done. beware to name the folder without including any space (the easyest way is to name it exactly as in my example, an use the command i wrote asis) -------------------- Soif, MacMusic Webmaster
