I have two problems. I cannot delete files from the Gallery I have a Droidx by Motorola I click on the files and select all then touch delete and they are still there.
In downloads I have four files that all say the contents could not be downloaded but I cannot delete these as well.

Yea!!! the long press worked! after pressing down and holding the message "clear from list " appeared and of course I said yes --- 4 times and the download list is cleared
Thank You
are these stored on your SD card or on the device itself?
I think on the phone but I'm not sure
When I access settings and go to the "SD card & Phone storage" the only function that is light up is "Unmount SD card"
Does this help?.
Ok one problem solved. I unmounted the SD card and then remounted and the files in the gallery disappeared.
The four files in the downloads are still there. Any idea how to remove them?
Downloaded files are usually stored in the Downloads or Download directory on either your phone memory or the SD card. The easiest way to delete these files is to connect your phone to your PC is "Disk Mode" and simple delete them from the drive letters that get loaded.
Steps:
Another alternative is to download a File Manager app from the market and use it to browse your device storage and delete the files. Some popular file managers are Open Manager, And Exploere, Astro File Manager, AndroZip File Manager. Once a file manager has been installed, note that the SD Card is easily visible, however your phone storage can be found under a directory named emmc in the root directory (/emmc).
Hope this helps!
no luck. I tried it all. The problem appears to be that the files did not download here's what appears in download history on the device

cannot download. The content is not supported on this phone
this message appears 4 times and no matter how I access it I can't find it to erase it
If the download list is showing the issue, you can try deleteing it from the list.
Open the Internet app-> Tap menu-> More-> Downloads
Long Press the item you wish to delete, and from the popup menu, select Delete.
If this also does not solve your problem, I will recomment clearing data for the Internet App. This will however mean that you will have to re-create your bookmarks and re-add your passwords etc etc.
Hope this helps!
