I'm not able to delete folders from my iDisk that appear to be shortcuts. I'm not sure how these folders became shortcuts vs. regular folders but when I move them to the trash and empty the trash, the next time iDisk syncs the folder is restored.



The folders with the little arrow on the left side are the ones I can't delete. Non-shortcut folders I can delete without a problem.

Any ideas how I can get rid of these unused shortcuts on my iDisk? I can't find anything on the Apple support site about shortcuts in your iDisk folder.

Thanks!

You can't delete those. Those are used by Apple to provide services related to .Mac/MobileMe.

Ahh, I guess that would explain it. Thanks.
