computer aggravation


my western digital 500GB DH is pissing me off. I am trying to delete everyhting off it but it wont let me. Any ideas how to make it happen. I am selecting all and when I go to EDIT TAB to move ot trash it is not highlighted or even giving me the option. I am also clicking the files and moving them to the trash icon manually but it states it can't delete them. Why and how the fuck is that possible? I wan tot clean the harddrive of all files and then save my itunes as it is now.

I did. The instructions say APPLE MENU, select control panels > extensions manager

When I click the apple icon I see no "CONTROL PANELS" or extensions manager to select.

plug in the drive...
open disk utility (in applications, utilities)...
select the external drive...
click the 'erase' tab...
for format, select mac osx extended (journaled)...
name the drive...
click 'erase'.

PEACE OUT, OLD DRIVE!





If I fail math, there goes my chance at a good job and a happy life full of hard work.

A lot of people ask me what kind of music I like. I love "soul music". My "soul music" isn’t a style, genre or niche. It’s music that is genuine. It’s a painful lyric, a dirty bassline, it’s a harrowing vocal, it’s feedback, it’s an anthem, it’s a love song, it’s anarchy. I’ve got my personal favourites but in the end it doesn’t matter who or where it comes from... so long as it’s good and it's real.
