    Interesting problem, finder freezes on one user

    Simbalala, you sir, are a genius. I had to do "rm BRAVHART*1*.jpg" for 1-6. The images starting with 0 wouldn't delete, but at that point doing "rm BRAVHART*.jpg" worked. I'm on my main account, nothing seems to be missing, everything seems to be working, life is good. I am eternally...

    Saw your edited post, got the same "list too long" response. I wonder if I did the same command but after the *added 0, than 1, than 2, than 3, than 4, than 5, than 6 would do it.

    I can get to terminal, though I've never used terminal before. I have admin rights on the other account, but it still won't let me access the files from my account.

    iMac G5 running Tiger Well in my infinite boredom I drunkinly tried to make an image sequence out of the movie Braveheart using Quicktime Pro. I don't even know why I guess I just wanted to see what would happen. I set the computer to its task and went to bed, in the morning the computer was...
