After hitting the delete key - the window that says "deleting x items" just stays there forever and files are not ever deleted.
Any suggestions?
iTunes 12-OTHER, OS X El Capitan (10.11.1)
I think we are on to something.
I can copy a file to the TC root - but it won't let me copy a file to the folder with the files I want to delete.
I can delete the file that I send to the root.
Yes, which proves it is a permissions issue..
You do not have permissions for the directory that was created from another computer. Create your own directory and you will then have permissions to copy files to it and delete files from it.
It is remarkably hard to keep up with how Apple is changing this stuff.. as from Mountain Lion (which is my regular OS) it is much less of a problem.

Which was my original thought, but I was confused when slackyhacky mentioned that everyone did have access to the files.
Time Capsule issue?.....or.....operating system issue?

TC has not changed. I cannot see that any differences in folders is going to be result of the firmware.
This is an OS issue.. 90% sure.
It is indeed hard to reproduce though.
I did test it.. When I create a folder on the TC from ML or from El Capo I can open files on both..
I can also delete files.. so I do not have the same issue as the OP.
However I don't have a setup where I can use two computers running El Capo.. or not yet.. working on it.
I guess another question to the OP.. do you have current user with full admin rights on the computer??
I can't delete files on my time capsule
