Umm, why don't you just press cmd option shift backspace to empty the trash?

Hi all, I'm posting to both lists, so I hope filters don't break, but
here's something I received last night called apple soundtrack from a
friend who helped me set up skype on the mac, and the youtube channel
this came from is solomania9, and here's the url for the video, and if
you want to hear the original source as it was uploaded, just add at
the end of the url

Now, for a question about dealing with the trash, and that is, that
when I would try and delete the trash, using the following steps, go to
the dock with vo-d, right arrow to the trash, and once there, down
arrow to empty trash, and press enter, a dialog would come up, but it,
apparently, would be hidden from me, because immediately, the computer
would go into this busy mode, and I would lose speech with voice over,
and I have a mac mini, so how does one empty the trash successfully
with a mac mini?  I couldn't find the okay buttons or any of the
buttons in the dialog, and I don't know if it was because of that, when
I shut down, my mac mini didn't shut down, or maybe it was trying to
update, not sure, but I hit the power button, and held it in, until the
computer shut off, re-started the machine, and shut down, and it did
the same thing, and this time, I waited, and it shut down after about a
couple or 3 minutes, but I wonder what I did, or what was going on to
make it do that?  The person who helped me with skype helped me with
the trash, but I wonder if the mac mini's have a problem with the trash
folder, or is this a weakness in the mac operating system?  Thanks in
advance, a loaded question, but hope somebody can help me out.

Marty
