Jun 20, 2010I have an NTFS partition automatically mounted in fstab. I have read many forums and have done what they have to try and fix this problem, but it still won't move the files to the NTFS trash folder. What can I do to make this work?Here is my fstab entry:

May 13, 2011This started happening last week. Whenever I try to delete a file that is not in my /home directory I get the message:
Cannot move file to trash, do you want to delete immediately.
I have found a couple threads in the forums about this issue, but it has always been associated with windows or samba shares.
This is happening on my computer, not on a shared folder or through samba. Its a little frustrating to say the least.

View 1 Replies View RelatedUbuntu :: User (vs. Root) Cannot Move To Trash, Only Delete, On Ext3 Partition?
Jan 9, 2010I just wanted to post this in case it helps anyone else. I have all my personal files (photos, documents, etc.) saved on a separate ext3 partition (so I don't have to worry about them on new installs, etc.). When I tried to delete files, however, I always received the message: "Cannot move file to trash, do you want to delete immediately?".
After much searching and failed fix attempts (mostly unnecessary messing with fstab), I found this post, which is now archived (or I would have replied there):ttp://ubuntuforums.org/showthread.php?t=759544. And frediE's solution, with a couple tiny modifications, finally solved the problem! (So huge thanks to frediE! ). irst, I found my user id, which is 1000, by going to the System > Administration > Users and Groups menu, selecting my user name (e.g. jnewm), clicking "Properties", andselecting "Advanced".
Second, I created a folder on the root of my partition called ".Trash-1000". (I may have needed to use "gksu nautilus" from a terminal to create the folder, I don't recall.)Third and last, I navigated to the root of the partition in my terminal and ran: sudo chown -R jnewm:jnewm .Trash-1000. Followed by: sudo chmod -R jnewm .Trash-1000 (I doubt this second step was necessary, but I'm listing it just in case). (confirmed unnecessary)
Ubuntu :: Can't Move Files In Host To Trash - Prompted To Delete Permanently
Jul 23, 2011ubuntu 11.04
ubuntu classic
wubi
When I try to delete a file in the host directory (and sub-directories), I see the prompt, 'Cannot move file to trash, do you want to delete immediately?'
I googled this issue and see some solutions that require editing fstab, but not sure if that's the right approach in wubi, and not so sure what edits I would make in fstab anyway.

Programming :: Bash Script: Move Files To Trash Instead Of Deleting?
Jul 10, 2010I've tried a number of suggestions found on the internet and none of them work. Here's one:Code:mv "$x" ~/.Trash/...where $x is the pathname of the file passed to the script.I've also tried different paths to Trash - on Desktop, in Home folder, in my user folder, it makes no difference. Either nothing happens, or more often, the file is simply copied to my desktop or userfolder with the name "Trash".What is the actual path to the Trash folder and how can I move files there? I'm using Ubuntu 10.04.

Jan 16, 2011I edited fstab so that my Windows disk partition will be automatically mounted when I log on.

View 3 Replies View RelatedUbuntu / Apple :: "Move To Trash" Keyboard Shortcut ?
May 5, 2010Aluminum Macobook 5,1, on Ubuntu 10.04
I'm quite happy with my set up now... there's really just one issue that's been nagging at me. "Move to Trash"
I would greatly like a keyboard shortcut for this... but unfortunately, there is no "delete" button on the mac keyboard (well... there IS, but it functions as backspace).
I would like to set up a keyboard shortcut, but I don't know what the command is to "move to trash" as opposed to simply removing a file. Anyone know how I can do this? I just want to get ctrl-del (I have command mapped to ctrl) to move files to trash like in OS X.

View 7 Replies View RelatedUbuntu :: Re-map The Delete Key To Something Other Than "move To Trash"?
Jul 28, 2010it seems that even after several years of bouncing around the idea on the forums and in the idea bin, etc., Ubuntu still has no "confirm move to trash" feature. The problem is, I have cats who love my keyboard, and they sometimes press the "delete" key, moving my files to trash behind my back. It's not a sufficient precaution just to review my trash before emptying it (for various complicated reasons with which I shall not bore you), nor would it be practical even if it were sufficient. So the obvious alternative is this: disable the "move to trash" function of the "delete" key!So, is there any way to do that? Perhaps re-map the delete key to a different function? I'm not an ubuntu expert, but if it will solve my problem then I'm willing to put some time/energy into a technical solution. I just need a place to start!

General :: Put Trash Can On Mint 11 Desktop
May 17, 2011I've just installed Mint 11.04 on one of my machines (Based on Ubuntu 11.04 - but with older Gnome, rather than Unity desktop). One preference I have is for a trashcan on the desktop. I have found instructions for installing a trashcan on older versions of Mint, but have not been able to get any of them to work on Mint 11. I just end up with a text file on the desktop that doesn't recycle deleted files.
View 2 Replies View RelatedUbuntu :: Empty Trash Command For Files (Desktop Recycle Bin)
Aug 28, 2010I mount /home on a logical partition. Files and directories that I trash from here go nicely into the recycle bin, and I can right click on it and choose "Empty Trash" with no problem. Files off of the root directory in directories that I "own" (i.e. /mydir/*) do not play as nicely. I went ahead and followed instructions from another post, namely:
Code:
sudo mkdir /.Trash
sudo chmod 1777 /.Trash
And after trashing some files from /mydir, there is indeed a subdirectory with my uid (1000) and files that I trash from /mydir are going in there. However, the recycle bin on my desktop remains empty, and the only method I have for deleting said files is by deleting them from the /.Trash/1000 folders through the command line. So my question is: Is there anyway that I can trash files from /mydir, see them appear on the desktop recycle bin, and empty the trash without the need to rm them directly through the command line? Not sure if it will help, but here is my fstab:
Code:
# / was on /dev/sda1 during installation
UUID=4129f389-92be-459e-8bbc-928c1440f718 / ext4 errors=remount-ro 0 1

Fedora :: Cannot Find The Trash Icon On Desktop?
Jan 21, 2010I have another complaint:I cannot find the Trash icon. I want to clean up my disk space. I googled how to delete files and I wasn't sure which way was best. I sometimes use the 'trash' and 'empty trash bin' except I cannot find the icon.I assume there is a command for doing that but after googling, there are only a few (OLDER) posts or articles of doing it in older versions of Fedora and they're all Gnome-based. My install is KDE.
