Period? All brands etc, no scripts, puggins hacks anything?! That sucks.
You see, I have a usb mp3 player, I get music from Itunes by dragging to the finder or disk icon, but the player has a hidden "trashes" folder on it, that the files move to when trashed. So When you delete files from the player, Finder still thinks that the capacity on the disk is taken and I have to unhide the trashes folder to remove them. Annoying huh.
Thought I'd got round it by moving the files to another folder on desktop 1st instead of trash, but of course this just copies the files - for some reason cutting isn't an option?!...anyone know a way round this?

iPods are the only mp3 players that work with iTunes.

What about Folder Actions, do you know of one that would make a folder cut a file from it's location rather than copy, then I can just drag files off the usb mp3 player, without making stuff add to the hidden trashes folder?
