Fix an iDisk 'file busy' error
Authored by: johnnysokko on Sep 12, '04 05:34:01PM

Here's what I did. Had the exact same problem, running 10.3.5. Open your IDisk, don't highlight the file (this will make it seem like it's in use). Go to the file you wish to delete by clicking on the icon area only (not the entire line), HOLD that click, drag the file to the trash can. You'll be prompted, hit OK, all should work fine. For some reason you can't use the old Command Delete routine with these files. Used to be IDisk would allow this, and may still, but if you're having problems that command won't work again (from my experience). If normal opening of IDisk doesn't work, open it not from the sidebar but using the finder Go menu.
