Ok, hey thank you so much for all your help. I tried to install the OS x on an external hard drive but it wouldn't let me. I'm going to take it to the apple store and see if they can suggest anything. Thanks again.

Even when I just do cd /Users it says "no such file or directory" preceding everthing is says: -bash-2.05b# does this mean anything? or do I need to change this some how?

Hey thanks for all your help, but it keeps on saying "no such file or directory" I put my user name in all the places, but I'm not sure I am using right short name and I'm not sure what it could be since i've tried every name I could think of. I think i'm just screwed here. Do you know...

What do you mean by "short" username? I tried doing that and it came back saying: mv: rename /Users/username/.Trash/username.sparseimage to /Users/username/: No such file or directory

thank you but I still cant seem to figure it out it says -bash: sudo: command not found any other ways? thanks.

I have no idea how to use the terminal commands to remove somthing from the trash. Can you explain, or do you know somewhere to point me where I can learn? Thank you.

I did the same thing as dmggreenberg. So my sparse image file is in the trash but I did not empty it, and now I can't log in under my user name. When I try to boot from the disk it wants to install the OSX again. The problem is I only had 3 gb of free space and not enough for the entire OSX...
