Can i delete iMovie cache files

Is it OK to delete files or do I still need on 2nd hardrive when I back up

In principle it is always possible to delete cache files and it is never necessary to back them up - However, I would not advise touching them unless you are clearly running out of disk space (in which case you probably don't have eneough space for imovie to work well).
Precisely which files you you propose to delete?

Can I delete Legacy Cache Files?

I've upgraded from CS to CS4 and find what I think are local cache files in photo directories from both versions. It appears CS wrote AdobeP8M.md0, AdobeP8P.tb0 and AdobeP8T.tb0, while CS4 writes .BridgeCache and .BridgeCacheT. Can I delete the many GB's of Adobe P8* files with no ill effects? I no longer use and have uninstalled CS. Thanks

As far as I know you can always delete cache files because they will rebuild.
It may take some time.

Can you delete iMovie video files without affecting a project?

I downloaded files from my recorder and created an iMovie. I didn't use every recorded file.
Now that I've created a project can the orginal files be deleted to save space?

If you never ever want to edit that project again, and if the raw footage contains images that are not important to you, and you never want to use those clips in a future project you can delete them.
The important thing to remember is that your video clips are stored in Events. The Project only contains a text file that has the paths to the event clips and instructions for how to put your video together.
When you finish a project and SHARE it using the Share menu, you are creating a finished version of the project. So if that is all you will ever need, you can delete your events and even your project.
What a lot of people do is to have a large external drive to store old events on. See instructions here.
https://discussions.apple.com/docs/DOC-4141
Also, if you create a camera archive (for AVCHD camcorders) of your raw clips, you can re-import your event clips later.

Is it safe to delete the cache file folder from library

is it safe to delete the cache file folder from library ?

As I understand it Robo doesn't really 'do' third-party
source control. We use SourceGear Vault, but really only as a
repository for the files. We can't really work concurrently because
Robo needs exclusive access to the top level project files. But it
kind of works for us, because we're on opposite sides of the globe.
I see what you're saying on the 'local' versions of (say) the
cpd files conflicting. If anyone else has an informed view, I'm all
ears. We've set it up this way ourselves - I don't know of anyone
doing the same. If someone tells me this is a bad idea, I'm happy
to think again.
Cheers!

How can I delete an old file from my library on iTunes

Occasionally I have to replace PDF manuals with ones that have been updated. But after I sync the new file the old one remains on my Mac itunes library. How can I delete the old file? So far all I do is deselect the old file but it's still there. Sooner or later there will be more old files then current ones making it hard to manage.
Thanks in advance.

You can do this with or without the iPad connected to your Mac.
Launch iTunes on the Mac. Click on Books under the Library heading. Click on the PDFs. Then click on the PDF that you want to delete in order to select it, and go to Edit>Delete and follow the on screen prompts.
if you are using iTunes 11 and do not have the sidebar enabled, and wish to do so, go to View>Show sidebar or use the keyboard shortcut OPTION+Command+S.
If you do not want to enable the sidebar, the library items can be accessed in the button in the upper left corner of the iTunes window.

Trying to use a new, larger external hard drive for my Time Machine backup. However, every time I start the backup, it gets started then fails. And, I can't delete the few files that did save on the external. Sort of a catch 22. Any ideas?

Is it a USB hard drive? USB hard drives have the problem of not giving full speed if they are hooked up on the same bus as keyboards and mice. Double check your profiler to make sure that is not a problem. If it is Firewire, make sure there aren't other firewire devices in use at the same time. I recommend not only keeping a Time Machine backup, but also a clone, and if you do use Time Machine, to make sure the Time Machine drive or partition is at least twice the size of the original drive.

Where can i find the cached file?

where can i find the cached file?.
while one video was getting cached . I could see the cached file in the cache directory that mozilla firefox uses which in my pc is .....Local Settings\Application Data\Mozilla\Firefox\Profiles\uujksq39.default\Cache. but later on when the full video was completely cached i couldnt find the file existing in that directory and i still have my session of that firefox opened and can watch the video from the firefox session.
since the cached video is still there ,there most be some place where the firefox is storing that file. is it the case that when the file is big (greater than some threshold value) firefox stores in some other directory?

You can do a search an the about:cache page.

Can I delete the PDF file's content in Adobe Reader plug-in?

I create a plug-in for Adobe Reader, when I open the PDF file, can I delete the PDF file's content in the plug-in?

The people here are visitors who might have knowledge and might choose to share it, if they have the time, and feel like answering a question. Your questions, instead, suggest that you think it is someone's job here to answer your questions. If you want it to be someone's job, you should raise a support case. This too will require patience.
You will not welcome this advice, I am sure, but it is well not to try to use your own deadline to try to make other people feel the problem is more urgent to them.

Evernote: Can I delete the imported file???

If you are a premium suscriber to Evernote, can you delete the original file (i.e., PDF, Excel, ...) that was imported into Evernote or do you need to keep it for future editing, sharing or such?
It seems Evernote copies the imported file and puts it into the Evernote folder located in the hidden Library directory (user/home/library/application support/evernote).

How can I delete hidden video files from the iPad?

How can I delete hidden video files from the iPad? These files were created on my MBA and when I changed the media type to iTunesU and then copied it to my iPad via iTunes, they did not appear. I can see them using 3rd party software, but they don't have delete functionality.
Thanks
York

Interesting note: I can see the files when I use the search function, but when I tap either file, I return to my home screen. The video does not open. I can transfer the file to my MBA, and it plays fine, but I cannot figure out a way to delete them.

Corrupted files on the HD. Input/output errors might require erasing and reformatting the HDs. See http://www.thexlab.com/faqs/trash.html for more info. BTW, there's no recycle bin on a Mac, only a trash can and the containers are referred to as Trash.
