Cannot delete an old vault that is not being used.

Cannot delete an old vault that is not being used. I get the following notification: The operation can’t be completed because the item “#3 Vault-GTech RAID mini-1TB” is locked.  I placed this vault on a external HD until I set up a new vault with the same name in Aperture.
Now I want to delete the older Vault. Any suggestions?  Thank you, Bob Stern

OK think I have it, but you'll need to use the terminal window and sudo to do this If you never used either then read this carefully before you begin.
start
Open a terminal, go to /Applications/Utilities and click on the Terminal app.
Type the following but do not press return: sudo chflags nouchg
Make sure to enter a space at the end of the above command
Go to Finder, locate the vault and drag it to the Terminal window at the end of the above command. The mouse pointer will turn into a green plus sign showing you your are dragging the file.
When you let go the full path of the vault will be at the end of the command, now press return.
If this is the first time you are running sudo you'll get some text telling you to be very careful. You'll also be prompted for your password, enter it.
Back in Finder in the Info window for the vault the Locked checkbox should be clear.
that's it
good luck, post back if you have any troubles.
regards

  • How do I delete places in the organizer that are not being used?

    In Elements Organizer 12, I think I accidentally created a "place" on the map that I do not want to apply to any photos.  When I try to do conduct an advanced search, the place is appearing as a checkbox.  I do not want this place to show up in the search field, as we have never been there.  How do I remove places that are not associated with any photos?

    If you are accessing emails from multiple devices, you are better off using the IMAP protocol. Then the devices sync with the server and they are all looking at the same information. With POP, you are going to get your emails spread about, some on Outlook, some on the iPad. It could get very confusing.
    By default, the iPad will not delete from a POP server. Instructions for changing this are here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3228

  • How to remove the bufgs that are not being used

    Hi,
    I have a IP block that has BUFGs that may or may not be used depending on which design the IP block is used. If they are not used I would like them to be removed but the tools are not consistent, sometimes they remove them and sometimes they do not.
    How do I specifically tell Vivado to remove a BUFG in the .XDC file?
    I've seen someone suggest to use the following attribute in the VHDL file but I need something in the XDC file
    attribute buffer_type of drck_i : signal is "none";
    Thank you,
    Luis

    Hi 
    If the BUFG instance is instantiated in the IP or your design then the buffer_type attribute will not work.
    The opt_design trims the unconnected instances during implementation. Ensure that the BUFG does not have  DONT_TOUCH property set on it which might affect trimming.
    Thanks,
    Deepika.

  • How to identify SQL_PROFILES that are not being used?

    In dba_hist_sqlstat table were found 26 Sql_Profiles, some of them are not used.
    Questions:
    - Is there any way to identify which one are not used?
    I tried verifying DBA_SQL_PROFILES but this does not help to much.
    - Analyzing one by one, Is the only way to find why they are not used?
    Thanks,
    Deyanira

    Hello;
    You should be able to Join the views DBA_USERS and DBA_PROFILES to see whats in use. ( or not in use )
    select distinct
      profile
    from
      dba_profiles
    where
      profile not in ( select profile from dba_users )  On the second question I would ask the DBA.
    Best Regards
    mseberg
    Dan is correct. I have misread the question. Sorry about that.

  • How to free space that is not being used?

    I have a tablespace with very few data (0.18 Mb) but somehow Oracle is using 10Gb for this tablespace, the tablespace is this one:
    Tablespace Name and Mb FREE_SPACE USED_SPACE TOTAL_SPACE
    HIST_PROMOTIONS_IDX 10099,8125 ,1875 10100
    The tablespace is composed by this 3 data files:
    FILE_NAME ALLOCATED_MB USED_MB FREE_SPACE_MB
    /oraindices/IRI9/data/HIST_PROM_ID1.dbf 5000.00 .06 4999.94
    /oraindices/IRI9/data/HIST_PROM_ID2.dbf 100.00 .06 99.94
    /oraindices/IRI9/data/HIST_PROM_ID3.dbf 5000.00 .06 4999.94
    Is there any way to reasign the space usage for this tablespace?
    thanks

    If I read this correctly, only a couple of MB are used in that tablespace.
    The resize should work, but you'll still have 3 datafiles where 1 would suffice. Also, sometimes, it will give you an error because blocks are located towards the end of the file.
    I would create a new tablespace using the size being used and move the objects in the large tablespace into this new one (move tables and rebuild indexes). When all is completed, take the large tablespace offline and, if all works well after a couple of days, drop that large tablespace.

  • How do i set system preferences to delete file cache that is not being used

    My file cache is using over a GB of memory.  How do i set the system to free up memory that is being held but not used?

    It's normal since Mavericks for almost all memory to be in use, either by applications or by the file cache. That's what you should want, since unused memory is going to waste. The relevant measure of whether memory is in short supply is what Apple calls "memory pressure."
    Apple's explanation of memory pressure is here. If you want a more detailed, technical description, see here, and for the source code, see here.

  • I have changed my icloud user Id and password, but the old user ID still pops up and ask my password. I cannot delete my old icloud account.

    I have changed my icloud user Id and password, but the old user ID still pops up and ask for my password. I cannot delete my old icloud account as it keeps asking password of my old user ID. how can I rectify the problem?

    Hey HKKL,
    Thanks for the question. I understand you are having issue relating to the iCloud account after changing your Apple ID email address. The following article addresses this issue and potential resolution:
    iOS 7: If you're asked for the password to your previous Apple ID when signing out of iCloud
    https://support.apple.com/kb/TS5223
    3. Change your Apple ID temporarily
    If signing out and back in to iMessage or FaceTime didn't work, try these steps:
    1. Change your Apple ID to the Apple ID you used previously. You shouldn't need to verify the email address.
    2. Tap Settings > iCloud and try to sign out.
    3. Change your Apple ID to the new email address that you want to use. You'll need to verify the email address.
    4. Tap Settings > iCloud and sign in with the new Apple ID.
    Thanks,
    Matt M.

  • I have 3 PC's.  Two of them I use at 2 different locations and only use them 6 months a year.  So, if I have Icloud for my calendar, and turn on a computer that has not been used for 6 months, does all the old information on that computer to go Icloud?

    I have 3 PC's.  Two of them I use at 2 different locations and only use them 6 months each year.  When I turn on a computer that has not been used for 6 months, does all of the old information from that computer end up in Icloud?  Does Icloud push all the new calendar and contact items over the old items?

    A reset may help. Tap and hold the Home button and the On/Off buttons for approximately 10-15 seconds, until the Apple logo reappears. When the logo appears, release both buttons.

  • HT1657 How do I delete a rental movie that will not load on my iPad

    How do I delete a rental movie that does not load

    Have you tried swiping across the progress bar and see of a delete button comes up that way?
    Or try Settings>General>Usage>Storage>Videos. If the movie appears in the setting, try the edit button in the upper right corner.
    You can also try resetting the iPad and then see if you can delete the download.
    Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up.
