Let us see again...
You have created files whose names have characters that have a special
meaning for the shell: (, ), and whitespace. In this case you have
to make an escape sequence to reference them. This is made using
"\" before the special character.
Try this:
rm \(.\)_Final\ Pro\ 3\(System\ ID\ file\).dmg
now, if this file is the only one ending in ".dmg" you can try:
rm *.dmg
