Re: OX10.1.5

[Andrew Rodger]

If I understand this correctly, the message is telling you that you 
cannot throw away the item because it is in use still.  Have you tried 
quitting out of the application which opened the item? This will 
usually overcome this problem in my experience.

Got a G4 running OSX 10.1.5 and when I try and empty the trash can it

used to rebuild desktop regularly and use disk first aid so what's the 
equivalent to this now? I opened Disk Utility but option to run First 
Aid is greyed out, and I haven't had chance to upgrade Norton yet.
