[QUOTE="dynasaur666, post: 1653170, member: 327858"] Hi guys; thanks as usual for the quick replies. Yep, unfortunately I tried to delete using finder rather than time machine. I was probably high on diet coke at the time (3am today). I've tried force emptying trash using the option button; it didn't work but came up with a slightly different error code this time. 'operation couldn't be completed; error code -8003' i'm anxious to use a terminal command to force empty as i've heard of some of the ways it can mess your system up. Any thoughts? [/QUOTE]
