Pressing delete, as well as hitting command+E neither works. In the menu
bar, delete, and eject both are grayed out.

Subject: Re: Hiding a dmg from Disk Utility
Actually, tha'ts' normal. when you eject a dmg via the finder it remains
in the disk utility for some unknown reason. What I do is just cmd e on the
thing in diskutility or failing that I try and hit delete. this has been an
issue since I believe the snow kiddy, how ever I was fairly new to the mac
so never thought of it as abnormal. but yeah try this. you will see a lot of
dmgs in the disk utility that you did eject from the finder. I guess so it
you can remount it should you want to, I dunno.

What other location would I copy it to though? I think you’re possibly a
little bit confused. I’m not saying that the image is showing up in the
finder. It’s showing up in Disk Utility. I don’t think I can copy it
elseware. Yeah, I could copy the dmg file through the Finder to another
location, but, that’s not the point. It’s not a matter of moving/copying
the dmg file itself. It’s a matter of why is it showing on my list of
disks when it’s not even mounted in the first place through Disk Utility.
Does that make more sense?

OK, so am having a sort of weird problem.
A long time ago, I installed my copy of ProTools 10.0. Now, you
probably wonder what on earth that has to do with my subject line.
Actually, everything. Hear me out on this. This e-mail is not ProTools
related at all. The point being, I had to download 10.0 from the Avid
web site. They didn’t ship me a physical DVD. For this reason, and by
the way, the reason they didn’t is because I crossfraded from 9.0
M-Power to 10.0 standard. NOrmally, I’d a gotten a DVD, but because of
the crossgrade, I didn’t. That’s neither here nor there though. Point
is, when I donwloaded it, it came as a dmg file, which is basically the
exact disk image of the 10.0 DVD. So, I downloaded it, and obviously
archived it with all my other software which I have located in a folder
underneath my home directory. So now, when I open Disk Utility, then I
interact with the table of discs/volumes, I notice that 10.0.dmg is
still listed in the table. It’s not mounted, so it’s not like I can
command+E on it to eject it. I tried bringing up a context menu with
vo+shift+M, but that didn’t work. In my edit menu up in the menu bar,
delete is unavailable. When I went under the file menu to reveal in
Finder, that is how I figured out it was that DVD image. I suspect,
though not totally sure, that the reason it probably is over there is
because I’ve opened it in the past. Anyway, I don’t under any
circumstances want to delete the file. I need that dmg on my drive,
case closed. That isn’t open for debate. It’s absolutely paramount!
that I keep that file. This said, I don’t want it hanging out in my
Disk Utility. So, how the heck do I hide this darn thing? I just
looked on my sidebar in the Finder, and it’s not even pinned to my
sidebar either. The only place I’m seeing it is in Disk Utility. It’s
the weirdest thing I’ve seen. I mean, ok. I get Apple’s logic of why
they did this, more or less, for quick and easy remounting access, but
the fact I can’t get rid of it? I’m sure a sighted person could
probably just drag it out of the window, but then, where would they drop
it?I know how to drag and drop, that’s no problem in most cases, but
again, where do I drag the thing?
Anyway, thanks for any and all help.
Chris.
