[QUOTE="Mr Bobbins, post: 84964, member: 8957"] Also try going to the 'get info' again and look at the 'Ownership & permissions' tab. Click on the lock symbol, enter your admin pass and then change the details (click arrow tab to open) so that you are the owner and that you have 'Read & write' permission. Then click on the apply to enclosed items. Now you should be able to look at and delete the files. If not then do the same for the individual files inside the folder. [/QUOTE]
