i made a multi-session disk using windows [on a dell] and i couldn't access the second session on the the MB so i opened up the disk using parallels and i dragged the file i wanted to move to the desktop of OSX.. i quit parallels then i didnt want the file my my desktop so i dragged that to the Movies folder.. instead of moving it it copied it.. now i have 2 files that are both locked and i cant delete or edit either of them.

i did do a search re: locked folders but i didnt find anything re: parallels/OSX specific.

some one please help. its using up 2+2gbs of space. i would at least like to delete one of them and still unlock the other copy for editing.

thnks

Hey yeah that JUST happened to me like 10 minutes ago and I was trying to figure out what to do. Did you ever get that figured out? How to trash a locked file? PLEASE let me know. Cheers, drex
