My imac connected to the company windows-based server, onsite not remote. When, in the OS finder (10.6.8), I go to delete a file or directory that resides on the window-based server, the trash progress panel appears as usual. Not infrequently it will just hang there appearing to be active but no progress occurs on the progress bar. So the X is chosen to stop or cancel the process. A new panel appears, and while appearing to be active, again, just hangs there indefinitely.
The question then is this: Is there a way via the Activity Monitor, Terminal, etc. to interrupt this deleting process in the Mac OS? Currently, I have to force shutdown and reboot to eradicate the ever-deleting panel. Finder relaunch does not solve and only eliminates the finder until I force reboot. It does not appear to be permissions related as I am alerted immediately before the delete begins if that is an issue.
Any assistance is appreciated.
Thanks
iMac, Mac OS X (10.6.8), i7-2.8ghz, 8gb ram
