Is there a way to remove individual deleted e-mails (as opposed to having to empty the entire contents of the folder) from the trash folder in the Evolution e-mail program? If not, you can do this in Outlook, why would this option not be included in Evolution?
View 3 Repliesi recently install NTFS-Config and Auto-mount my NTFS_partitions... They are now successfully mounting in Start-up, but whenever i try to remove something(within) NTFS partition, the removing item is not going to Trash,its just deleting that item permanently,
My fstab :-
Code:
# /etc/fstab: static file system information.

# <file system> <mount point> <type> <options> <dump> <pass>

I'm using Ubuntu 10.04.
I recently modified the nautilus to show the trash icon as it didn't come by default on the Desktop.
I have a problem because the trash keeps showing items in it. When I put my mouse over it it keeps saying "6 items", however, when I open the trash it is totally empty.
Code:
sudo find / -name "Trash"
And couldn't find anything that let me fix this.
I'm using Evolution, latest version for Linux. For some reason, I can't get the deleted items folder in the mail view to expunge. Is there some reason why emptying the trash suddenly doesn't work? It worked for the first few days of using Evolution, but now it just doesn't work -- the deleted items just stay there.
Here's the error message:
Error storing '~/.evolution/mail/local/Handle Later (mbox)': Error storing '~/.evolution/mail/local/Sent (mbox)': Error storing '~/.evolution/mail/local/Inbox (mbox)': Summary and folder mismatch, even after a sync
I seem to have all email settings still working, contacts and tasks all seem to be complete. I've rebooted - haven't been prompted for anything in particular.

Neither will it expunge with right click on trash -> empty trash..e.Close Evolution and open your file browser. Go to /home/put-your-ubuntu-login-name-here/.evolution/mail/localThere are 2 files (Junk.cmeta and Trash.cmeta). I deleted the Trash.cmeta file and opened Evolution again.When you reopen Evolution, it creates a new Trash.cmeta file.

My son left for the Air Force Academy and when he left he told me and I was on my own so I am doing my best to learn. Everything was going fine but today I encountered a problem.
When I tried to empty my trash in the Evolution Mail program, I encountered this error message:
Error while Expunging folder.
Error storing '~/.evolution/mail/local/Sent (mbox)': Summary and folder mismatch, even after a sync
I googled the error and found this solution:
I first used Evolution File > Backup Settings. Then I went to my .evolution/mail/local and deleted all files that had an extension of:
.index
.cmeta
but NOT .data
When restarted it takes a few minutes to rebuild. Then I was able to successfully delete everything in my trash folder. I have looked and looked and I cannot find the .evolution/mail/local folder. How to get to it. Or perhaps am I using the wrong corrective action. If that is the case, then what should I do.

View 4 Replies View RelatedI accidentally deleted an important folder from my desktop and now need to get into the trash folder to restore it. I thought that it is und by opening my home folder (nautilus?) and that is shows up in the list in the pane on the left. Now I only see two items listed there - "Home Folder" and "File System," and the trash folder is not in either of them. Not even if I select to view hidden files.I know how to get to it from the command line and view what is inside:
Code:
cd ~/.local/share/Trash/info; ls
But I would prefer to navigate to it in the gui
I started an upgrade from Ubuntu 8.04 to 10.04 and it stopped with the message: Ubuntu desktop is listed to be removed but is on the removal blacklist. Then it restored back to 8.04. I don't know how to resolve this - it would be alright to remove the old Ubuntu desktop.

View 3 Replies View RelatedI 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:
Code:
# NTFS partition /dev/sda1
UUID=5D924B8408514F71 /media/MediaDrive ntfs rw,auto,users,nosuid,uid=1000,fmask=137,dmask=027,utf8 0 0
I recently added another user to my system. My principal user has ID=1000 the new user has ID=1001, they both belong to the group id 1000.
I have an NTFS partition that I am now able to mount for both the users at boot with this line in the fstab:
Code:
UUID=F472BDC372BD8ABE /media/OS ntfs-3g quiet,defaults,uid=1000,rw,utf8 0 0
The point is that if I don't put the option
Code:
uid=1000
I cannot move files to trash but only delete them if I put it I can move files to trash but only if I am logged in as the user with ID=1000 I have tried to change the option and use the groups logic instead of the users (groups are there for this purpose aren't them?) and change the option into
Code:
uid=1000
since both the users belong to group 1000
but the result is that in this way none of them can trash anything (only delete permanently) I have also tried to create a .Trash-1001 folder did not work either
Is there a way to be able to use a Trash folder (or different trash folders I don't mind) and be able to trash files for different users in NTFS?
how the fstab line would look like?

View 2 Replies View RelatedStraight to the problem on my [Ubuntu 9.10].I cannot delete or empty my .Trash-1000 folder on my flash drive. I tried changing permission with chmod but no way, I cannot empty the folder via the Ubuntu main trash option 'Empty Trash'. I read a bunch of threads but no way.Do you know a solution that works to this problem?Even further. Do you know a way to tell nautilus to avoid using that folder in my USB devices and use instead the normal trash folder on my system?
View 5 Replies View RelatedI have been using Ubuntu 10.04 (32 bit) as a headless workstation, running a VNC screen. Worked perfectly for about 3 weeks, then suddenly, I lost the Drag and Drop capability, for all applications.For example: Dragging and dropping to move items on the desktop does not work. The item simply pops back to the original location. Dragging and dropping to move items from one folder to another does not work. Same behavior -- the item just pops back to the original location. Dragging and dropping Bookmarks in Firefox does not work. The attempted Drag and Drop is ignored. Copy and paste still works fine.The problem does NOT occur when using an attached monitor (primary display screen :0).After much Googling (including these forums), I suspected that the changed behavior was caused by an update (from Ubuntu Update Manager). I confirmed this with the following:Reinstalled Ubuntu 10.04 fresh from the live cd.Configured minimal networking and installed VNC server.Tested Drag and drop -- works okayApplied pending updates (116) from Ubuntu Update ManagerTested Drag and drop -- not workingI am using vnc4server and openssh-server installed from the repositories using Synaptic.
View 7 Replies View RelatedI'm a beginner at backing up my Ubuntu system, but I've set Simple Backup to do a backup once a week. I deleted the oldest of these files, but now it's sitting in my Trash and I can't empty it. I get a permission denied error for the folders within the backup folder in the trash, yet I can't restore the folder either - Ubuntu says it 'failed to determine the original path' for the folder. I've just discovered this in Xubuntu Jaunty, but I'm confident the same will happen in any other WM I choose (I have several installed - I like variety ).
It's not a huge file, but it's hanging out there and I'd like to get it either deleted or restored. Possibly I oughtn't to have deleted it in the first place (it usually lives in /var/backup, which I can't access except as root). The files, which I probably deleted /as/ root, show up in my user trash rather than root's trash. I found the trash in ~/.local/share/Trash/files, but I'm not sure if just deleting them as root would be a good.
I formatted an old pen drive and noticed that when I deleted files, the free space was not going down. Then I hit Ctrl+h and saw a folder named .Trash-1000. Is this only needed if someone if using Windows or can it be safely deleted?

Once I had installed Fedora, I first deleted the outdated backup, intending to make another fresh one but then I realised that somehow the original files hadn't copied from OpenSUSE onto the USB.
The situation I'm in now is that I only have the outdated backup in the trash can so I need that back but I get the following error message when I try and recover it:

I have an old hard drive w/XandrOS that I decided to make external storage. I didn't bother wiping it. I figured I could just replace files on it like .mozilla folder.I currently have OSS 11.3 where I chose to copy and paste .mozilla from OSS to external HD. I was denied access to copy over certain files.Then I made the bonehead maneuver of trashing .mozilla from the external HD. Now, my trash can says that my access is denied to "cookperm.txt" and other files. I attempted to restore it, but it can't because the new .mozilla file is the external HD.Wow, did I corner myself. I could really use some help. Just want to eliminate that old

Of course I can always create an extra folder outside of my ~ and then symlink what I don't want encrypted into it, but I'd rather that it's possible to create like, ~/.ecryptsfs/excludelist with a list of paths that shouldn't be encrypted.
Does anyone know how to add a fully working (icon changes) Trashcan to the Desktop Folder View?I don't want the plasmoid/widget on the Desktop or on the Task Manager Panel.I can right click -> Create New -> Link to Location(URL), but the icon doesn't change.If the Desktop Folder View is a plasmoid, I guess I'm asking can a plasmoid (trash can) run inside another plasmoid (desktop view) %-)
View 5 Replies View RelatedI've been looking into libtrash to give me the ability to recover files that users mistakenly delete from Samba/Netatalk/ProFTPD shares.But I have some questions about getting a specific libtrash configuration.We have a RAID6 shared files partition and all our users have full read and write access to /mnt/raid6/shared through Samba/Netatalk/ ProFTPD...Reading through all the docs supplied with libtrash it seems to suggest that the trash folder can only be located in the user's home folder.
This has prompted a couple of questions:
1) Having gone through the docs, I can't find a place to specify the location of the trash folder.I can specify the name of the trash folder, but it seems like it's automatically created under the user's home directory.I'm looking to have the trash folder also stored on the RAID6 partition.Because the boot/OS drive is a smaller 120GB drive, and the RAID6 is 4TB. So if someone deleted 3TB of files, the trash folder wouldn't be able to take them all as the trash folder's on the 120GB boot drive.
Is there a way to specify the absolute location of the trash folder?I'd like to have a single trash folder for all users of the machine.
2) Since this is a server, most of the daemons will be running as user nobody/samba/ whatever. Not an actual interactive user account with a home folder etc.
I have read the note about this in the docs and it seems that user nobody will need write access to the trash folder in order to put files in there.However it will rarely be the case that it's an interactive user removing files from the terminal. I'm only looking for protection if any of the server daemons remove files.
Does libtrash run in the background or is it only active when an interactive user is logged in?Since it seems libtrash is activated by a variable in /etc/profile
Is libtrash suitable for what I'm looking for?Anyone got any alternate suggestions for what I'm trying to do?Is there something I could be doing on the filesystem level? The FS of the RAID 6 array is ext3 but can always change that if there's something better out there!OS is CentOS 5.5 64bit
Is there a way to remove the Computer, Trash, and Home folder from the desktop and have them just in the panel? I like a clean desktop with no icons, and would like to use the top panel as a "dock" of sorts.
