[QUOTE="vansmith, post: 1514340, member: 71075"] OS X doesn't have native write support for NTFS so I imagine that you installed something. However, I doubt that this is causing the problem. So, the issue here seems to be that the rm commands you ran were on your personal Trash but the files that you listed aren't there which might explain why they didn't go away. If I'm not mistaken, you said that the files were at (please correct me if I'm wrong): /Volumes/Seagate2tb/.Trashes/501/Adobe /Volumes/Seagate2tb/.Trashes/501/MISC\ files\ Mint\ 13\ Desktop /Volumes/Seagate2tb/.Trashes/501/MISC\ files\ Ubuntu\ 1204\ from\ old\ Mint\ 13\ Desktop /Volumes/Seagate2tb/.Trashes/501/Notes\ and\ System\ Info Have you tried using rm to remove those?
