Can I delete one the 2 exact same files in Finder, without deleting the other one Automatically too?

I have backed up and have removed a User account. since then, I have 1 user account, but all files are duplicate. Instead of having 199GB on my disk, i now have about the double. Ifound some stuff to delete, but there are also apple apps that are double. Can i delete half of them, so that only one copie stays and not both delete?
Thanks for helping out.

no obviously not. it's not in the trash if you are worried copy the second copy and change the name to something else. then delete both and after deleting both rename the copy the same as the original.

  • Are PC World (UK) iMacs the exact same Spec as those bought in the Apple Store?

    I am looking to purcahse a 27" iMac Late 2013 model (Haswell).
    I have vouchers for Currys/PC World stores in the UK and want to know if the iMacs available in these stores are the same technical specs as those bought off the shelf in an Apple Store?
    I ask as some of the technical specs given in their online literature seems to differ from those described on the Apple site.
    I am looking to buy the £1,749 version but note that on the PC World website M-EO89B/A it doesn't show the processing speed to be 3.4Ghz but 3.2Ghz, which is the spec for the 'cheaper' 27". It also doesn't show the 802.11ac but 802.11n.
    However, if I am going to pay out this money then I want the best system available. So are the specs the same or is this just poorly worded descriptions on their site?
    Thank you.

    You should take it up with PC World, if possible with the store manager.   If they're promoting the ones you have seen that is one thing,  if it is standard stock, that is another.  In the case of the latter, ask if they can order to the specifications you prefer and make your order conditional on that.   And if that were possible, ask if the machine will be pre-loaded with Mavericks.

  • Can 2 Ipods have the exact same Itunes files?

    I have 2 30GB Video Ipods (5th gen I think). I would like to sync them to the same Itunes account on the same computer (including all the same folders). I have read the tutorial, but it sounds like they assume each Ipod would have different folders. Can 2 Ipods contain the exact same files? (I'm asking because my teenage son wants the same music I have.) Thank you.

    You can sync as many ipods you like to the same library/computer.
    You can select whatever you like ( including the same items) to sync to each device.
    Plug the ipod in, select what you want to sync and sync.

  • Can anyone tell me why a picture would change color when I try to download/upload it?  It is the exact same picture- chosen the same way and when it goes to any other program it changes the color (I've tried canvas on demand and mpixpro.  I've also tried

    Can anyone tell me why this picture changes color when I try to download/upload it?  It is the exact same picture I have taken from the same location.  The image on the left is via preview and the image on the right is what is shows like when I try to download it.  I have emailed it to myself and it shows fine on the computer and in CS4, but when I look at the download via my phone or on another computer it shows the wonky color on the right.  I have checked the color space shows RGB/8 bit.  Any ideas why or how to fix it?  It isn't with any one specific session.... and I've tried it on both my desktop and my laptop- saved image to an external hard drive and to drop box.  I've tried sending the image to canvas on demand, my email, mpxipro, POST editing- all the same result.  Please HELP!!  What am I doing wrong?

    Most of the time you see something like that. The image in question has a color profile other then sRGB. Some image viewers/displayers are color managed and others are not.  So the image do not look the same in all of the applications you use. So colors seem to change.
    Try converting it to sRGB color and see if then looks the same all around. Also I think PC and Mac displays are set to different gamma something like 1.8 and 2.2
    Though I'm colorblind I even see color variations.

    On a Mac, in Adobe Photoshop CC 2014, when adding audio to an edit, i get the message "Could not complete your request, because Dynamiclink is not available".
    When performing the exact same operation in Adobe Photoshop CC, i can add audio in the same way, no error message. Any ideas to solve this, anyone? Would be greatly appreciated.

    I tried to update and it keeps telling me to get the Application Manager. And this is what happens
    Adobe Application Manager failed and it told me to download the Adobe Support Advisor.
    Adobe Support Advisor told me that there was an issue:" cpsid_82829s1: "A restart is pending," bootstrapper error has occurred. "Token Number: 40-87772-063201122012
    I followed the instructions it gave me to correct this issue:
    If you receive the error "Installer has detected that a machine restart is pending. It is recommended that you quit the installer, restart try again," do the following:
    #Restart the computer and try the installation again.
    #If the installation fails, delete the InProgress registry key:

  • When I try to same an image under the command 'save as' it will only let me save as file types 'firefox document' or 'all files' and when I try to look at them later they dont work. How can I save an image as the same file type it is on the web site?!

    When I try to save an image under the command 'save as' it will only let me save as file types 'firefox document' or 'all files' and when I try to look at them later they dont work. How can I save an image as the same file type it is on the web site?!
    == This happened ==
    Every time Firefox opened
    == I updated to one of the firefox versions (Not sure which one it was)

    Thanks Alex, but sadly I already tried that. Neither .docx or .xlsx files show up in the content list. They both show as a Chrome HTML document so changing how Firefox addresses those doesn't help since it thinks its the same type of file. I don't think I can manually add files into the "Content Type" left side nav.

  • Can I create a custom XMP panel but using the exact same fields from standard XMP panels?

    Hi,
    I am new to XMP and not very technical, so please excuse me if this sounds like a stupid question!
    I have managed to create my own custom panels for Photoshop using the Generic Panel method with my own custom fields and they work fine. However what I need to do now is create a custom panel that uses the exact same fields from some of the standard panels. The reason being is that I have 4 fields that need to be integrated into another non-adobe system (Extensis Portfolio) that recognizes standard XMP fields, but at present these 4 fields are spread across different standard panels and it would be much easier for the user in Photoshop if they were all together on one panel.
    An example field is the "Additional Model Info" field that currently resides on the standard IPTC Extension panel. If I fill in a value in this field on a JPEG then open the the image in Extensis Portfolio, then the field is also filled in in a field called IPTC - Model Info, displaying a key of Iptc4xmpExt:AddlModelInfo.
    Is there a way I can take this standard field and use it on a custom panel, so that it can still be filled in in Photoshop and the value viewed in Extensis Portfolio? Sure I can create a custom panel and create a field called "Additional Model Info" but I can't figure out how to connect it to the corresponding field in Portfolio. I tried changing the  xmp_property name="Iptc4xmpExt:AddlModelInfo" but this just broke the panel.
    Is what I am trying to do possible and if so how and can it be done using the Generic Panel method?
    Many thanks!

    I am trying to do the same thing but with only the IPTC Keywords field. Searching everywhere but no luck.
    Thanks!

  • Bridge search criteria doesn't find files but the exact same criteria finds files in the Finder

    I am wondering if anyone has been having the same problem that I have been having. I can't seem to get any results back from the Bridge when I create a smart collection but when I enter the exact same criteria in the Finder I get lots of results. I took a screen shot of both programs if any one can catch something I am doing wrong. To me it looks exactly like the same search criteria in both apps.
    Here are the screen shots:

    Hi Holly,
    I've been doing a lot of reading on and off and my office just decided to get a server and either extensis portfolio, or canto cumulus, both are software packages that have been designed from the beginning to do exactly what we want.
    The drag is that they are expensive, but I was spending so much time trying to tweak out bridge and trying different scripts and blah blah blah, that I wasn't taking pictures, so that's what we decided to go with.
    I've worked with Canto Cumulus in another job and it is really great, some people told me to check out extensis so I'm looking into both right now.
    Sorry, but that's the best solution for us, just use something else instead of bridge for the network.

    I went to my local Apple store last weekend with a similar issue on my 2007 C2D MBP and they quoted me a price of around £60 (excluding VAT) to replace the optical drive. That's about the same price as the external optical drive a bought for my RMBP.
    Alternatively you could just buy a 3rd party external drive if you want to save cash but note that the external Apple superdrive is not compatible with MacBooks with built in optical drives.

  • HT4528 Can I delete all the e-mails on my iPhone without going through them one by one?

    Can I delete all of the e-mails on my iPhone without going through them one by one?

    I am not synced through iCloud and the e-mails do not seem to be anywhere I can locate them on my computer.
    Is it possible that Apple has access to some record in AOL that tells them how many e-mails I have received through them through the years even though I have deleted them on the computer, at least as far as I know I have?
    And why would AOL keep such a record anyway?

    Doesn't sound like any hard drive failure to me - more a Finder preference.
    Finder -> Preferences -> General -> Show these items on the desktop -> Hard disks
    The startup disk is sometimes treated differently from other disks (such as external and network disks) and I'm guessing this is a simple preference setting, although I might be wrong.
