rMBP Yet another bug: thrash won´t empty before restart

[Pagga]

My Retina MBP is only a week old and has quite a few bugs (that admittedly aren´t very serious). This is the latest:

When I install a new app and delete the dmg file into the trash, it cannot not be emptied before a restart because "another program is using the file". This is a common prob, but now it happens with every app. Help?

Eject your disk image (DMG) first, close all finder windows related to the DMG, nothing to do with rMBP, it`s OS X. At present it`s best to consider Lion as an interim OS as Mountain Lion will be far more appropriate for Retina systems.

btw my Early 2008 15" MBP does the same on Snow Leopard from time to time

Exactly! Too many are blaming issues on the MBPR, rather than recognizing they have nothing to do with a particular Mac model. While the MBPR may have some issues, they are not as many as people claim. In this case, it's purely a matter of the user not understanding how Mac OS X works.

I would suggest learning the basics of Mac OS X.

I have an early 2011 model and this happens to me. I guess I don't know how to use OSX.

I would suggest learning the basics of Mac OS X.

Or better yet, the basics of Unix, processes and open files.
