Click on the item in the Finder's sidebar with the house icon and verify that you are able to write to this folder in the Sharing & Permissions section of the Get Info window, and that it isn't locked; if it is already set this way and you get that error, open the AppleScript Editor in the /Applications/Utilities/ folder and run the following:


do shell script "mkdir ~/.Trash"


If you get a message stating that the folder exists, run the following:


set theUID to (do shell script "echo $UID")

do shell script "chown " & theUID & " ~/.Trash" with administrator privileges

do shell script "chmod u+rwx ~/.Trash"

tell application "Finder" to quit

delay 2

tell application "Finder" to run
