Can I delete the Patch zips that are taking up a few GB of my hard drive?

In the Adobe folder under 'AdobePatchFiles' there are about 34 zip files that are taking up nearly 3GB of my hard drive. I don't see why I'd need these zip files, but I just wanted to check first before I delete them.

You can delete them, but be aware that this may cause issues with future updates when the installers check for those backup files and they are not there... It's always best to leave such stuff alone.

HT203180 How can I delete old rental movies that are still on my iPad, but no longer viewable?

How can I delete old rental movies that are still on my iPad, but are no longer viewable because the rental has expired?

I have a similar problem. The default answer on the web is to open Videos on your iPad, then touch and hold the movie you wish to delete, then tap the little cross that appears. Alternatively, you can connect to iTunes, select your device in the list, scroll down to the Rentals summary and delete from there.
I have a problem with both of these solutions! The Video App on my iPad does not contain any video icons, just an option to browse my shared library, so I can't delete it from there... ANd in iTunes, the movie in the Rntals tab on my device summary is greyed out, so I can't do anything from there either. But the movie is taking up 2.5 Gb....
Can someone please offer an alternative to resetting the device entirely?!

Bare in mind that Sync is only oneway, from PC to your device. Unless you have the same music on your PC, iTunes is going to wipe out what you have on your device if you are syncing to a new library.
You can only transfer Purchased music over to Itunes on your PC.

As for you own music, you may have to use a third party software. A good Free one is called Sharepod which you can download from Download.com here:

How do I delete Photo Stream photos that are taking up hard drive space in my Masters folder, but not actually appearing in any event, or on the interface at all?

A couple months ago, I activated photo stream using my apple ID. I was under the impression that all the photos uploaded to my photo stream would only use server space on icloud and wouldn't actually utilize disk space, or at the most, the option was available to only download specific photos to my hard drive. My hope was that I could upload the photos to a specific drive, and view the uploaded thumbs or low-res comps on any device as a reference.
This is not the case.
What I have found is that iphoto has been automatically downloading any and all photos uploaded to my photo stream. Not just the thumbnails, the entire thumbnail + all resolutions. I shoot RAW photos so in my case, the original averages about 15-25MB per photo.
I have been uploading directly to an iphoto library on an external hard drive specifically designated for handling all my RAW high-res images.
What has been happening is all those RAW files are also being uploaded directly to my iphoto library on my iMac and eating up memory which I cannot reclaim, even after deactivating my Photo Stream in preferences. We're talking almost 100 GB of memory is tied up right now.
I don't want to just go in and start deleting files and folders in my Masters folder, since I have heard this will break iphoto, but the photos in my photostream do not show up in any event and I need to reclaim the hard drive space.
How can I safely delete them?

If the files are loose inside the iPhoto library package here's one way to get them out:
1 - open your library, select all of the photos in the library and add a unique keyword, XXXX, to all of them.
2 - Rebuild the library with iPhoto Library Manager as follows:
Using iPhoto Library Manager to Rebuild Your iPhoto Library
1 - download iPhoto Library Manager and launch.>Click on the Add Library button,
2 - select the library you want to add from those in the selection window.
3 - make sure that in the rebuild window the checkbox "Scavange orphaned photos" is checked.
4 - now that the library is listed in the left hand pane of iPLM, click on your library and go to the Library ➙ Rebuild Library menu option
5 - in the next window name the new library and select the location you want it to be placed. Click on the Create button.
Note 1: This creates a new library based on the LIbraryData.xml file in the library and will recover Events, Albums, keywords, titles and comments. However, books, calendars, cards and slideshows will be lost.
Note 2: Your current library will be left untouched for further attempts at a fix if so desired.
3 - open the library, create a smart album with the criterial "Keyword is not XXXX".
4 - the smart album will include those photos that were not visible in your original library. Select them and use the key combination of Command+Option+Delete to move them to the iPhoto Trash bin.
5 - empty the iPhoto Trash bin via the iPhoto ➙ Empty iPhoto Trash Bin menu option.
6 - empty the Trash bin in the Dock to remove the files from your hard drive completely.
Be sure to read Note 1 above. You can use the new library without your books, slideshow, etc. and it will not contain those errant files. Of course delete the original library if the new one is satisfactory.

Can I delete tmp-archive files that are really large?

I have two extremely large files. I'm trying to take back some memory (only operating with 2 GB free space, and that's not good).
Ran Disk Inventory X to see my largest files, and found these two gems with 32.25 and 44.62 GB.
Now, I've been to one link I found discussing possible solutions:
http://forums.macrumors.com/archive/index.php/t-1474738.html
However, I'm not super tech savvy. Basically, to try and see if another program would clean these up, I downloaded both TinkerTool System and Main Menu. Ran each of them, but neither cleaned up those files.
Are they essential files? Does anyone know if I can delete them?
Thanks

In that location, there is usually just -caches and -tmp directories with no other folders.
Their presence would result from an old installation that has not cleaned up after itself.
Those two files have been there a long time; since 2011.
Given that you are short of disk space, deleting them would be a good idea, by dragging them to the trash, but you will need to be in an Admin account and you will have to supply your password to complete the operation, given that they have been installed by the system.

How can I delete topic index keywords that are no longer associated with a topic?

I am trying to clean up the index of an older Robohelp project before it becomes part of a merged webhelp project. I do not want to include any of its index keywords or topic keywords. I've managed to remove most of them, but I have a group of troublesome entries that refuse to go away. In fact, they cause RH8 to crash. I am running Windows XP.
Looking at the code in Visual Studio, it appears that an instruction is pointing to field which contains "zero". (see image below)
I have tried creating a new index and deleting the old index, but RH just keeps adding these topic keywords (in bold typeface) to the new index. If the keywords are no longer associated with a topic, where is RH storing these disassociated keywords? If I open the .hhk, it is empty.

Not sure why RH crashed when deleting a portion of the topic keywords manuall
y from the index pane, but I was finally able to remove them with the Remove Unused Keywords tool. Duh! Thanks anyway!

Deleting the scheduled workbooks that are no longer valid - via script

Hi,
I would like to delete the results of the scheduled workbooks (created by users other than me) with scheduled workbooks status like 'Error while running query" or "Report Expired" or "EUL has changed, reschedule report". From Discoverer Administrator (version: 10.1.2.1) --> Tools --> Manage Scheduled Workbooks --> search by user, I can only delete one scheduled workbook at a time. Is there a way to delete these via a script of some kind?
If any one has a sample script and if you can share here that'd be awesome.
Thanks in advance,
-Esther

Ran into Note:459747.1 from metalink. It has information to identify the scheduled workbook results etc., But according to the note in this note "Note: The tables mentioned here should never be updated or deleted manually."
But the admin tool allows to delete one scheduled workbook result at a time based on the status.
Any information here would be beneficial...
Thanks

I recently lost my hard drive; after downloading iTunes on my new computer can I download the CD's that are on my iPod to the computer?

Can you transfer the albums from the iPod to iTunes on the computer while sync the two without loosing what is loaded on the iPod?

Content purchased from iTunes can be redownloaded.
Content acquired from other sources will need to be reloaded from those sources, iDevices are NOT backup devices.
The simplest solution, restore all the media from the backup of the old computer.
