trash trouble

Lilly Q · Apr 30, 2013

Hi. I'm Lilly Q and I can't empty the trash on my iMac OS X 10.6.8. I get error code -8003. Any suggestions? Thanks.

Hi,
You can try this, (clicking this link will launch the AppleScript Editor on your Mac) it's an AppleScript compiled by our very own awesome Walrus666. Just press Run in the top left of the window that opens and enter your Admin Username/Password when prompted.

You can save Walrus666's cool AppleScript to your HD if you think it's solved your issue.

Thanks, Spawn_Dooley. It worked and I saved the script. Sorry for taking so long to reply; I only just got brave enough to try it.
