Fix unusable Trash on other volumes
Authored by: Anonymous on May 07, '06 06:49:16PM

Go into your external volume using Terminal. Then type:

cd .Trashes

When you're in there you can type ls and you should be able to see a directory with a name like 501. cd into that directory and most likely that is where you'll find your lost file. If you still can't see it type ls -al

This will list everything including hidden files.
