Q: I tried to delete old backups (Time Machine) and trash won't empty. Thought I could free up disk space but it's definitely not working!

Tried removing the big backup files from trash when the trash wouldn't delete them and put them back in the back-up folders... that didn't work. Anyone know what to do? I ran Disk Utility permissions repair... didn't help.
