I have one week old MBP r with a 500 gig ssd. I looked at my storage and im using 147gig for back up. I've backed up onto a time capsule. So what is this 147gig of backups and how do i delete it?

This is my first Mac, and i was just browsing around when i went into storage and i saw i was using 43.97 gigs for audio, 44.72 gigs for movies, 7.96 gigs for photos, 5.4 gigs for apps, 147.16 gigs for backups and 70.81 gigs for other.
I've backed up onto a time capsule that i also recently bought. So i would like to know what constitues the "Backups" on my hard drive and how do I delete it to free up more space

    I have been trying to watch tutorials on how layering works. All I want to do is this: I have one image of a radio with a white background. I need to have just the radio extracted, then on a new layer (white one/blank/plain) I need to copy and paste the image of the radio two times. How can I DO THIS!?!?!?! Thanks!

    In Editor, go to the expert tab.
    Open picture B, the one you wish to select the radio from to add to another picture.
    Use one of the selection tools, e.g. selection brush, lasso tool, to select the object. You will see an outline ("marching ants") once the selection is complete
    Go to Edit menu>copy to copy the selection to the clipboard
    Open picture A, then go to Edit>paste
    Use the move tool to position object from picture B.
    In the layers palette you should see picture A as the background layer, and the radio B on a separate layer.

  • HT1349 My one week old iphone 4S went dead and will not turn on even by plugging into wall outlet or MacBook Pro, besides taking back to Verizon is there anything I can do?

    I have a week old Verizon iPhone 4S and it went dead and I have tried plugging into the wall outlet and into a MacBook Pro and pushed all the buttons but nothing. Besides taking back to Verizon is there anything I can do?

    Thanks. I also found that holding the home button and on/ off button at same time for 15 seconds turned it back on.

  • What does this error message mean and how do I solve it? "Sorry, one or more of the following command-line tools was not found:  /usr/bin/lsbom, /bin/pax, /bin/mkdir, /bin/chmod, or /usr/bin/update_prebinding."

    When I try to open up this program, Pacifist, I receive this error message. Here's a screenshot. http://i.imgur.com/v717w.jpg What does this error message mean and how do I solve it?

    It sounds like some of the Unix Executable commands were removed (or the permissions to those were modified) out of the /usr/bin/ folder.  You can try opening disk utility and repairing permissions on Macintosh HD or you can reboot your computer and holding down option-r when it comes back up to reinstall Lion again.  This will not delete your personal information or applications you have installed but it would be best to back it up to Time Machine before you do.  The article on how to do this is here. (http://www.apple.com/macosx/recovery/)  I have had to do this before and it works like a charm.  It should fix your issue but grab a cup of coffee because its going to take about 35 - 40 minutes depending on how fast your computer is.

  • Small hair/dead pixel behind screen 10 weeks old MBP

    Hello,
    I have a 10 weeks old MBP and now I was browsing the web when I noticed a very small hair behind my screen
    it's aprox 2-3 mm in length but it really annoys me because of 2 facts
    It's in the centre of my screen
    My MBP is 10 weeks old!
    However it also could be a line of dead pixels.
    I already read some threads about this and most of them say that I have to go to the Apple store,
    but I live in Belgium? I don't know if the service is the same as in the US?
    thanks!

    Hello Michiel0lb,
    No, I'm sorry but I can't be that positive.  I don't use MBP, I have never seen their guarantee and the interpretation of a fault has to be with the examiner ... in your case, Switch.    That said, if the fault is visible any decent company would want to see you satisfied whether it means cleaning, replacing the screen or the whole MB for that matter.   10 weeks is not a long time and Apple is a decent company.
    I can (just) make the fault out though I'm sure it is more visible in reality.   Be sure to approach Switch in person and phone first to confirm they are able to handle a warranty matter.   Re-sellers often have facilities to repair on the premises or they will send the machine back to an Apple base if the matter is serious.    But if asked when you phone, don't say any more than your screen has developed unusual marks that could be faulty pixels.    For your own satisfaction you must ensure it is examined.
    Post back with your findings ... and good luck,

  • Week 23 MBP ships with new MLB?

    I have a week 23 MBP 2Ghz Glossy, does it have the new MLB installed? I really dont want to wait on hold for ever just to find out that mine already has it.
    TIA
    -Tyler

    Then whew... I have a week 26!
    The problem is: not all week 26 have the new boards I think they started using them somewhere in week 26. I, too, have a week 26 and I have the old board (and the whine).
    An indicator on whether you have the new board or not is the following: if your MBP came with Mac OS 10.4.6, then you probably have the new version. Otherwise you definitely don't.
    If your MBP doesn't whine, I'd not worry about it anyway

  • Hello. I have an iphone5 and I use it for a hotspot for mylaptop and printer. Does any one know a device that will extend its range? I have tried a Netgear and Belkin range extenders without any luck. Thank you!

    Hello. I have an iphone5 and I use it for a hotspot for mylaptop and printer. Does any one know a device that will extend its range? I have tried a Netgear and Belkin range extenders without any luck. The Belkin was closest to working. IT could find my iphone but when it create a new network, both the laptop and printer could not find the new extended network. Thank you!

    Hi - you can do what you want to do with AirPlay from your iPhone - but unfortunately it is not as easy as the people in the Apple store told you - your first problem is that you have a non Apple router - you cannot extend a non Apple router wirelessly with the Express - you can only join the network and connect an ethernet device to it - you can however connect via ethernet and have it create a wireless network of its' own - you can set this up from your iPhone or the XP - but this is a complicated setup and would involve many different discussion areas of this forum - therefore I would suggest that you use your 90 days of support and consult directly with Apple to do this - go to this link - http://www.apple.com/support/contact/

    If you need to extract the drive's content you can remove it and install it in a $10 USB enclosure. It will be readable by any recent Mac.
