A very small post for people searching about this specific issue:
You’re trying to delete an icon/shortcut from the sidebar in Finder, under Mac OS X Lion/10.7.
Right clicking doesn’t work, because that folder does not exist, or maybe it points to a share using an old version of AFP or SMB that you can’t connect to, because some company that almost has the same name as a famous dog if you pronounce it in french is a bad company that doesn’t update the firmware on any hardware old enough to have a lot of important data on it.
What you need to do is hold command and drag it to Trash instead of doing a right click.

When installing vCenter update manager in a lab, I got this :
“Error 25005.Setup failed to generate the SSL keys”
It appears that since I have installed vCenter Server, vSphere client, and tried to install the update manager all in one sitting without rebooting, there has been some path confusion and it could not find openssl.exe (or the right version of it). Allowing it to roll back, rebooting, and trying again fixed the issue for me.

Having issues similar to:
Trying to enable EFS on a specific OU, while it’s disable at the top of the structure or domain?
Recovery certificates from two different GPOs mixing up instead of being replaced?
Overall EFS GPOs looking like they aren’t merging properly?
Well, it’s not because EFS GPOs are supposed to behave like black magic. Turns out there’s a bug, Microsoft’s aware of it, but doesn’t think it would be a good idea to FIX IT on Windows XP and 2003.
Thankfully, all it means is you need to edit your GPOs from a Vista, 2008 or Windows 7 machine.
KB : EFS may not be enabled expectedly after you disable a policy and this policy turn off the EFS feature
Opening my EFS GPOs in Windows 7, switching the Allow/Don’t allow and applying the ‘change’ fixed my GPOs. A few minutes later, and stuff was behaving like it should’ve been… Can I have those wasted hours of my life back, Mr. Ballmer?

You might have had some computers not communicating properly with your WSUS servers.
After looking at the WindowsUpdate.log file, you notice an error, WARNING: WU client failed Searching for update with error 0x8024400e .
You then find info about
1) This error being related to Office 2003 Service Pack 1, and that unapproving it fixes the isse
2) Microsoft having released a patch for this issue that you can install on your servers.
But in reality, the issue might be…
3) You’re retarded, and called a computer group on your test lab .. Group! .. With the ! !

After switching to iWeb, I setup my iPhone to get my email on their IMAP server.
I have made a typo when entering my password for outgoing email. After trying to send an email, it kept on retrying, and I didn’t notice. The battery got drain in a matter of hours.
I noticed the mail application saying “1 message unsent”. I fixed my password, sent another message, which worked, but the “stuck” message stayed stuck.
I decided to delete the account completely. Fine, it’s gone!
NO!
Somehow, my Usage stats were EQUAL to my Standby time, and sometimes were not available at all. I could charge the phone, not use it for 2 hours, and it would say Usage = 2hours, Standby = 2 hours. It was obvious something was still trying to send in the background.
If you get a similar behavior ( Usage equal to standby ) , you might want to try doing a restore. That’s what fixed it for me, and it’s pretty straightfoward.
I hope the next firmware fixes that bug, because it could mean that anything else interrupting an outgoing message could drain your battery overnight. It should retry a few times, and prompt you..
