trash won't open

[katy]

Hello,

When i click on the trash icon from the dock it will not open, any ideas? This has just started happening the past few days.

I'm using a Macbook.


Thanks,
Katy

What steps have you tried so far? Does it happen every time, or only sometimes? If you make a new user account, does it still happen?

its started working again. But it does have a folder now named "recovered trash' there....which i would only expect if my mac has crashed recently..which it hasnt..

hmm

Thanks anyway

Did you restart or did it just let you in with the folder inside? Sometimes that recovered folder shows up in there after restart but yours is a recovered trash folder...interesting

Might be the same though
