Are Classic 9 OS files necessary?

I hope this is the right place to post this question..
I've been clearing up space on my hard drive and deleting lots of files and programs I don't use etc..
When I purchased my little bubble, iMac Flat Screen, it had both OS X and Classic 9 OS installed. It's been years now and I have yet to need or use Classic (at least to my knowledge).
Could somebody please help me figure out if it's okay to delete all of the Classic files and if it is okay, what is the best way to totally uninstall Classic? Would simply dragging it to the trash suffice? Would deleting Classic somehow affect OS X? Are there any unforseen pitfalls to deleting these files etc?
Sorry if this is a bit of a sophmoric question; I just wanted to see what a few of you thought. Thank you for any help and advise.

Thank you for responding to my question, Duane.
There are no Classic OS files in my Applications Folder, but when I search for "Mac Classic OS" in my hard drive, seventy-two folders show up.
When I open any of these folders, it seems each one has a plug-in stored in them. Each plug-in has a different name.. for example, one is called, "Extrude", one is called, "Smart Blur" another "Solarize" etc etc.
Every one of these files has a differnt plug-in, but they all have the exact same name, "MacOSClassic"; Parent "Contents" ;Date Modified "July 10, 2004, 5:58PM" ;Size "--" ;Kind "Folder".
Is is okay to delete these seventy-two "MacOSClassic" flies?

  • Are all the *.wsdl files in "output" folder necessary?

    When I generate a BPEL process from JDeveloper then the output folder contains sometimes (but not always)
    many *.wsdl files. Are these *.wsdl files necessary (for the subsequent deploy process)
    or can I prevent the generation of them into output folder?
    Peter

    I dont think they are required for deployment.

  • Are those files necessary

    hi
    i am new at oracle ebs
    are those files necessary ? i want to delete them. they are too many and backing up them is much time consuming operation
    $OAD_TOP/admin/out/PROD/ (/data/PROD/prodcomn/admin/out/PROD/)
    oxxxxxx.out files
    259000 files 64GB size
    thanks for your replies.

    These files are the output files of the concurrent requests. If you delete it manually from the server, you will not be able to view the output of the associated concurrent programs.
    The proper way to purge these out files (and/or .log files under /data/PROD/prodcomn/admin/log/PROD/) is by running "Purge Concurrent Request and/or Manager Data" concurrent request on regular basis, and select ALL parameters to purge CM log/out files as well as concurrent requests log/out files.

  • Is there any way of undoing a shuffle? The CDs I downloaded to iTunes have all been shuffled. As most of these are classical, it is inappropriate to have them separated into songs that play any old time. Can I restore them to the original albums?

    Is there any way of undoing a shuffle? The CDs I downloaded to iTunes have all been shuffled into individual 'songs'. As most of these are classical and folk, it is inappropriate to have them separated into songs that play any old time (ie, a movement from Beethoven's 5th symphony followed by a folk song followed by one excerpt from Vivaldi's Four Seasons, etc. Can I restore them all to the original albums and make sure the shuffle doesn't happen again?
    Thanks!

    Thanks! That has worked, but only partially - there are still some Beethovens mixed in with the Vivaldis. I'm sure I installed these as total albums.
    I have noticed that too from time to time, I generally move the files into the correct folder and fix the index in itunes when one won't open, occasionally.

  • Are "working copies", "project files" and "editing files" the same thing?

    Hello.
    I have just joined the Adobe Forums as a newbie starting right at the bottom. I am still unfamiliar with the terms "working copies", "project files" and "editing files".
    I wonder if someone will help me to know the difference between these terms.
    I have just started the Dreamweaver tutorial, "Creating your first website, Part 1: Set up your site and project files" (http://www.adobe.com/devnet/dreamweaver/articles/first_website_pt1.htm).
    The tutorial read, "You've now defined a local site folder for the Check Magazine site. This is where you keep the working copies of web pages on your local computer.".
    Are "working copies", "project files" and "editing files" the same thing?

    Why would the raid level make any difference at all?  My data files are all stored on a RAID 4 system and seems to do pretty well.
    Murray *ACP*,
    If I may elaborate on this,
    being completely new to Dreamweaver, my reason for having wondered whether it would be a good idea or a bad idea to have these files on disks that are in RAID 0, was because the term project files in the Dreamweaver Tutorial had me thinking of Premiere Pro project files and the performance increase working with such project files in a RAID 0 setup, which (provided there is backup) is especially beneficial if you have large or complex projects, long time-lines and a tight deadline,
    especially considering that as fill rates of disks go up, and as the number of disk activities on a disk go up, performance goes down, sometimes by 50%, and that the more tracks you have in your project, the more strain is put on your disk, and the more applications you have open, the more your pagefile is used, especially on systems with limited memory.
    Therefore, as RAID 0 offers the best performance increase over a single disk,  I immediately thought of the concept of project files related to Premiere Pro when I came across the term project files in the Dreamweaver Tutorial, being unfamiliar with the definition of project files in Dreamweaver world, hence my need to define project files related to Dreamweaver with reference to disk setup and file management.
    However, if I understand correctly, my conclusion is that RAID 0 is not necessary for Dreamweaver project files, since the local site is not disk intensive, unless you have a huge website to build ?
    Also, if I understand correctly, in website design, you want to minimize local files and use your hosting company to store and retrieve info from ?

  • All files are converted to Word files in my email program

    after siging in to change my pdf files into word files now all my files inserted on e-mails are transformed into word files...how can I change this please ?

    Hi Ulrsfch,
    When you convert a PDF file to Word, the PDF file remains on your system. So, files should not be automatically converted to a different format because you've signed on to ExportPDF. What may be happening is that the filename association has changed on your system, and your operating system has associated different file types with the .doc or .docx filename extension.  Are you on Mac OS or Windows?
    I look forward to hearing back from you.
    Best,
    Sara

  • Windows Server 2012 R2 RDS: RDS Users are unable to delete files from their desktop

    Hello,
    We are working with Windows Server 2012 R2 RDS. We also implemented User Profile Disks. This is all working fine without problems. The only issue I have is that normal users are unable to delete files from their desktop. They are getting a message:
    you'll need administrator permission to delete this file, with the prompt for administrator access.
    They can edit, copy, rename, cut and paste files. But they cannot delete a file from their desktop.
    I checked the security permissions of the files on the desktop (for example a normal self-created PDF file) and the users are owner and have "Full Control" over the files.
    I checked the file permissions and took a look under "Advanced", selecting the specific domain user and checked the "Advanced Permissions" and the user has the "Delete" option checked. So he should be able to delete the
    file.
    I am guessing this is UPD related issue, or something in GPO. But I already unlinked the GPO objects, that I felt could be the source of this problem, but without results.
    Could someone give me a hint on where to look? It's kinda annoying to users, that they can't delete their own files.

    Hello Bria,
    What you should check first, is the NTFS permissions on the User Profile Disk to begin with. See if the user has full control over the items that are in the UPD.
    Also check the GPO's that are enabled for the user and computer account. You can check that by running: gpresult /h <path>\gpresult.html
    There are two GPO settings that could prevent the user from deleting his/her own items: 
    User
    Configuration\\Policies\\Administrative Templates\\Windows Components\\Windows Explorer\
    Hide these specified drives in My Computer
    Prevent access to specified drives in My
    Computer
    There might be other GPO settings, that block deleting items on the UPD, but can't think of any out of my head.
    I can only think NTFS and GPO settings that might prevent the user from deleting items. In my case it was a GPO setting, that I didn't suspect.

  • What are the basic .jar files to be set in web dynpro project classpath

    Hi,
    I am having a problem while customizing the ESS. I used DTR, DC and imported configuration. After that, I created project from one of the DC(say ess/jp/addr). Later when I open an iView from any Web Dynpro component, I am getting lot of errors without even making any modifications.
    I closed the project and reopened it and reload & rebuilt, but it doesn't solved my problem. In my classpath settings I couldn't find any jar files except the jre_lib. Could you please let me know what are the basic jar files we have to set in classpath and where to get them from. We are using NWDS 7.0.06 version.
    Can you please let me know how to solve this or any other way to work around this.

  • Where are Thunderbird e-mail files stored on my computer?

    I have read the suggested articles and followed the instructions as best I can, but I still cannot figure out how to get to profile (the path revealed in "Troubleshooting Information," by clicking "show folder," was not what I found on my computer---one element in the supposed path, "AppData," simply was not there in the tree) unless I somehow missed a hidden clue. Furthermore, even if I manage to get to profile, I still don't comprehend how to move my e-mail files from there to a location on my computer that is easy to get to and to back up along with all my other data files.
    Perhaps my level of knowledge is too modest here because the assumption is that I know more than I actually do know. If that is the case, I apologize, but that does not resolve the issue. I wonder why the folders containing e-mails are not placed in an obvious and handy location to begin with, but that of course is a different matter.
    But right now, all I want to do is to (1) get to profile, (2) understand how to back up the actual profile (or profiles, if I ever have more than one, which I don't quite understand, either), and (3) comprehend how to separate out and move the e-mail files/folders located there to an easily accessible and obvious (to me) location. I would greatly appreciate some basic-level instruction on this.
    (I might mention that because it did not meet my needs generally, and also because it was most inconveniently down periodically, otherwise difficult to use far too frequently, and administered with shockingly scant attention to customer satisfaction despite its full-bore commercial nature, I abandoned AT&T/Yahoo web mail for a computer-resident POP client. I chose Thunderbird on the recommendation of a knowledgeable friend. I had used Outlook with relatively good success quite some time ago but have a fundamental aversion to patronizing Microsoft when I do not absolutely have to do so. That is why I am trying with much energy to get Thunderbird to work for me with some reasonable degree of convenience and functionality.)
    Thank you.

    ''re: A folder-copy isn't easy to read,''
    Only if you need to read a specific email as emails are not stored in separate .eml files. They are stored in mbox files which look like a long text document containing emails written one after the other in the order downloaded. But for backing up and reinstalling a Profle which contains all your data, it is stored exactly as required for reinstalling. It also stores all your preferences and account details and so on - eg: address books.
    ''re: if its not compressed it also includes all deleted files.''
    What gnospen actually means is 'compacted' not compressed. They are two entirely different things which should not be confused. You can easily empty the Deleted and Junk folders and then compact all your folders before backing up. This resolves this if it is of a concern to you.
    As gnospen says, ImportExportTools is an excellent tool for backing up emails - not your Profile, not your account settings and preferences and not your address books.
    You can choose to use to store emails as separate .eml files or HTML or plain text format or as a single text file or pdf format or export the entire folder in mbox format with or with subfolders.
    If you want to use ImportExportTools, Thunderbird needs to running, I would advise you go into Offline mode whilst backing up as you do not want your folders synchronising whilst performing this task.
    Here is a link to ImportExporttools addon:
    * https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/thunderbird/addon/importexporttools/
    I suppose what you need to determine is what do you want to backup.
    I would advise, if you want all your prefernces, account settings, address books and emails saved in one go, then copy the Profile to create a backup or use MozBackup tool.
    If you only want to backup emails then use ImportExportTools addon tool.
    If not backing up your entire profile, but you do want to keep a backup of address books then you can go to Address Book and select the address book, then Tools > Export as either LDIF or comma separated .csv file.
    Note: comma separated .csv files can be opened by other programs such as Excel and can also be easily imported into any email client or back into Thunderbird.

  • I recently upgraded to iOS 8. Looks like the pics I had in my messages are no longer appearing as pictures, rather they are appearing as JPEG files (not broken jpegs). I need to get these pics. Can't figure out how to do it. I'm on an iPhone 5C.

    I recently upgraded to iOS 8. Looks like the pics I had in my messages are no longer appearing as pictures, rather they are appearing as JPEG files (not broken jpegs). I need to get these pics. Can't figure out how to do it. I'm on an iPhone 5C.
    I've tried resetting my phone, looking for the pics in the new 'deleted' folder. I tried forwarding the jpegs to sees if they'll appear in a new message (but turnout the phone won't let me forward these pics). Apple is trying to say it's the 30 day reason, but I know that is not the problem. ALl of my pics older than 30 days were viewable. It is the upgrade that screwed this up. Help! Important pics!

    As for iPhoto, it sounds like you were trying to move files around in the library. That is a bib no-no in Aperture or iPhoto.

    nas on airport extreme not recognized by time machine. same nas was previously used as time machine backup on different airport extreme. are there any configuration files that i can delete to fix this problem ?

    Time Machine has been working just fine, but in the last week or two it has given up the ghost. I reset the connections to the drive, and it will basically save a few bytes of data and then hang.
    Although Apple originally announced, prior to the release of the first 802.11n AirPort Extreme Base Stations (AEBSn), that it would support Time Machine backups to AirPort Disks, they removed that option before they did finally release the base station for sale.
    Since then, Apple has posted (as you have noted) that they DO NOT support Time Machine backups to AirPort Disks. As far as I know, they have not changed from that position and those who do these backups find that they become corrupted over time. Sorry, but it sounds like you just confirmed that for yourself.
    1) Has one of the recent updates either on the AE (firmware) or OSX disabled this function?
    No. Again, this feature has never been supported by Apple for every generation of AEBSn released.
    2) Are there any changes I can make to get this working again?
    If your data backups are critical to you, then you will want to use a different solution for your Time Machine backup destination drive strategy. I would suggest that you connect your WD My Book directly to your Mac in the mean time.
    Your other options would be to either use a Time Capsule (which interestingly does support TM backups to AirPort Disks) or a non-Apple solution like the Drobo FS or HP MediaSmart server.

  • Old Quark files are now Unix Executable Files

    I made hundreds of archive CD's with Mac's running OS 9 back in 1990's. They contain Quark files and .tif's. I've referred back to these CD's many many times over the years with no problems. My new iMac has the intel processor. I pop an archive CD in and all the files (with no extensions like "tif" or ".qkd" or ".eps") are now "Unix Executable Files" that won't open.
    I simply add an extension to the images files (like ".tif") and they work. HOWEVER, it's not so easy with the Quark files. I add ".qkd" to the file name and it still remains a Unix file.
    I launch Quark and try to open the file through the finder and it doesn't work. I took an archive CD to a friends house whose on a G5 and the CD worked properly with no extensions needed to be added.
    So I figure the problem is with the Intel/PC based processor. I shouldn't have sold my old G5.
    One forum claimed that a program called "File Buddy" did the trick for him. Does anyone have any other ideas other than me buying a non-Intel Mac.
    I love our new iMacs but I need these archive CD's to work!
    Thanks

    I automatically run OnyX once a week for maintenance, but it didn't help this situation.
    Those chores won't reset the LaunchServices database. Go to the Maintenance heading and click on the Reset tab. Turn on the check box for "LaunchServices database" (all other check boxes off). Click the Reset radio button and then Execute. Restart your Mac.
    OS X will automatically rebuild the database according to the applications on your hard drive, giving preference to Apple applications as they would be when you first install OS X. So if you have the Acrobat Reader set up to open PDF files, you'll have to do that again as they will be set back to Preview.
    Actually it's .qxd not .qkd for Quark XPress file extensions.
    That's it! I knew .qkd was wrong, but Quark 6.x won't show you the old extensions when you save a file, and I couldn't remember it (been using InDesign steadily for a while now).

  • The Change time of the file is getting modified when no changes are made to the file content

    While doing save operation of a MS-WORD file, (in my example "1M.doc" ) with client (Windows 8) and server(either Win 2008 R2 or Win2012 R2). Observing the following scenario.
     After Renames are done(eg, xx.tmp renamed to 1M.doc) , all the file handles are being closed one by one.
    When the xx.tmp file is closed, immediately followed by Create of 1M.doc, the LastWrite time values between Close and Create are same but LastChanged time values are different. The LastChanged and LastWrite times are noted from
    the Close Response and Create Response packets.
    No modification is done on the file between this last close and next create. So, why LastChanged time values are different for the file? We are observing this almost everytime with Win8- Win2k8R2/Win2012R2, but not observed
    till now with Win8-Win2012.

    Hi,
    Is only word files have the issue? You could refer to the articles below to troubleshoot the issue:
    The "Modified time" file attribute of a registry hive file is updated when an application loads and then unloads the registry hive file without making any changes on a computer that is running Windows Server 2008 R2 or Windows 7
