Can I delete visualvm folder in Library?

I found this folder called "visualvm" in my library, but I wasn't sure if I should delete the folder or not in case it has system files in it. So does anyone know?
it's at the very bottom on the finder screenshot.

I run the latest fat cat (10.7.3) with Java and all the latest patches. Also have VirtualBox and Fusion. No "visualvm" to be found anywhere in the computer, starting with my ~/Library.
Does it have anything inside? Beware, may have invisible items. Open Terminal and type the following commands to be sure nothing hides in there (substitute your local spelling for "Library" between the slashes):
cd ~/Library/visualvmls -la
Post back if anything shows up. Note that the . and .. directories are normal and should be there.

HT201302 i can not delete photos from photo library from my iPhone 4

i can not delete photos from photo library and onother folder contain same photo in the photo library from my iPhone 4
thnx

Delete them the same way you put them there. The sync process. Deselectg the album in itunes and sync.
Photo Album contains ALL synced photos and you can also view those exact same photos, not duplicates, from the albums.

HT201317 How can i delete the complete Photo Library?

How can i delete the complete Photo Library, as i can delete from the camera roll, but there dosent seem to be an obvious way to completely delete the Photo Library or items in the library either? There is no delete option like for the user generated albums...
I have tried deleting from the Camera Storage in the Settings menu, the delete appears but when pressed nothing happens.

I'm sorry but the way you worded the question I thought you were referring to iPhoto's library on the computer. I don't use an iPhone or the iPhoto app, so I can't answer your question in that regard.
Since you already marked the topic as solved when it was not, I recommend you re-post your topic. Just use a different topic title such as, "Help with iPhoto app on iPhone 5."

Can I delete iPhoto amd iPhoto library once Photos is in place

Can I delete iPhoto amd iPhoto library once Photos is in place, or iPhoto is still useful.

Yes - but don't.
Wait until Photos matures. Both libraries will live side by side. As will the apps. You can still open your iPhoto library with iPhoto.

Creating a new library for backing up, can I delete my old iTunes Library?

Hey there I was wondering this, I am creating a new folder for my library because the old one had a lot of music I decided to delete. My question is can I delete the old Library or would that prevent me from being able to use iTunes?
Thank you to anyone that helps

Either way. If you want to delete the current library and start a new one with the new songs, you can. If you'd prefer to add the new songs to the existing library, and then delete the current songs, you can do that too.
As long as you don't delete the songs that you want, you will be able to use iTunes.

In photoshop elements 12 I try to delete a folder but the delete option is grayed out. how can I delete a folder from my catalogue?

how can I delete folders from photoshop elements 12. the option to delete is grayed out an I don't know what the alternative options are

Got it fixed! The Folder was set to Open With Terminal!
Maybe when you moved it over from your other system, the Open With got changed? To change this, in your Finder, select the iPhoto library from your User/Pictures folder and do a Get Info on it Command+I.
Then change the Open With to iPhoto application!
Then from the Finder, double click the iPhoto Folder and it will be opened with iPhoto! WALLA it worked!

Can not delete corrupted folder

Hi there,
I'm using SharePoint Foundation 2010 and am having problem with one of the site collections.
It's a simple 'Team site'. The problem is that I can not delete the certain folder, which seems to be corrupted.
Symptoms:
if I try to delete it I receive error "Access Denied", even though I use farm admin account.
if I try to 'Manage permissions', I receive error "Can not complete this action".
if I try to 'Edit Properties' (rename library) I receive error "Access Denied".
'View Properties' works good.
Looking in WebDav, the folder doesn't exist.
if I try to create a new folder with the same name within the same root library, I receive error that folder already exists.
Steps taken:
1. the entire site collection was backed up (using Backup-SPSite) and restored (Restore-SPSite) to the newly-created site collection within another Web App
and content database - the corrupted folder was carried over and the issue remained the same.
2. tried to use .NET methods to delete this folder but received error:
$rabbit = Get-SPWeb "https://site1.sharepoint.local/BD"
$damaged_folder = $rabbit.GetFolder("Services/Technical Team/Mit")
attempted to delete:
PS C:\Windows\system32> $damaged_folder.Delete()
Exception calling "Delete" with "0" argument(s): "Cannot remove file "Mit". Error Code: 16389."
attempted to move to Recycle Bin:
PS C:\Windows\system32> $damaged_folder.Recycle()
Exception calling "Recycle" with "0" argument(s): "Cannot remove file "Mit". Error Code: 16389."
Looking at the properties of $damaged_folder, I've noticed that property 'EffectiveRawPermissions' was blank, while for the normal folder it was set to 'FullMask'
I've tried to update it but received an error:
PS C:\Windows\system32> $damaged_folder.EffectiveRawPermissions = "FullMask"
"EffectiveRawPermissions" is a ReadOnly property.
Any help is greatly appreciated!

I am facing the same
problem.
I tried to delete the folder with a powershell command and with a console application. The result is :
Exception calling "Delete" with "0" argument(s): "Cannot remove file "Folder". Error Code: 16389."
At line:1 char:77
+ [Microsoft.SharePoint.SPSecurity]::RunWithElevatedPrivileges({$folder.Delete<<<< ()})
+ CategoryInfo : NotSpecified: (:) [], MethodInvocationException
+ FullyQualifiedErrorId : DotNetMethodException
The last possibility it's maybe to remove lines on the database!
Does anyone has triedthis solution?
Thanks in adavance.

How can I delete a corrupted itunes library

My iTunes was freezing at the beginning after I have tried to load some mp3 files.
I got an advice to click "option" with the iTunes icon and I could build a new library.
Now, How can I delete the old corrupted one which is almost 100Gb??

Hold the option key while clicking iTunes.

I can't delete songs from my library unless I'm in the bulk "music" tab. This will cost me hours of time to sort through. Help!

I used to be able to delete songs from my library from any playlist by holding ALT and pressing BACKSPACE. Now, this only works in the bulk "Music" tab which lists every single item in my entire playlist. I have about 300 items in my playlist that need to be deleted (They are remnants of deleted files and no longer point to an existing file location). I have a smart playlist that collects all these items, and in the past I would periodically just delete the contents of that list from the whole library. Now I can't do that. I thought of trying to modify all the items under a common album title so I could find the whole group in the "Music" tab and delete them there, but iTunes won't let me modify them because they don't have a valid file path. (That's exactly the reason I'm trying to delete them! AARGH!)
The only alternative I can think of is to look up every single item individually and manually delete them one by one, which would amount to a few hours of wasted time. I'm so frustrated. I don't understand why each progressive installment of iTunes does away with features that were helpful and useful when they existed. I feel like Apple hates me.Can anyone help me?

Use Shift+Delete to remove items from a playlist and the library at the same time.

I can't delete a more than 10 bookmarks at a time, I can't delete bookmarks folder

Firefox 25, Mac 10.8
If I try to delete more than 10 bookmarks at a time or a folder with bookmarks in it, FF hangs, then says there's a script that isn't running properly & do I want to continue or stop the script - I've tried continuing but it just hangs again, and I've tried stopping the script but it still hangs..
I've restarted FF, turned off Sync, turned on Sync.
I tried exporting my bookmarks to html, to edit them in a file then re-import them, but the file was incomplete - it did not contain all the folder in My Bookmarks.
Deleting bookmarks has been a pain ever since Sync was introduced, and Firefox doesn't have an official iOS app and the 3rd party ones don't work consistently, so I don't get much use from sync

I'm sorry, I wasn't clear in stating my problem.
I understand how to delete both bookmarks and folders containing bookmarks according to the instructions, and have done so easily in the past.
But, since update to FF25 I haven't been able to delete a folder with bookmarks in it or more than 10-12 bookmarks at a time.
I resolved the issue by quitting FF, importing my bookmarks into Chrome, using Chrome's import as FF also was not exporting a complete bookmark list. I cleared out some duplicates in Chrome, exported bookmarks from Chrome to an html file, removed the places sqlite file from my profile, deleted all FF bookmarks, and imported the bookmarks html file into FF, which created a new & functional places sqlite file with the same set of bookmarks as at the beginning. I can only think the places file was corrupted somehow during the update as that was the only file I had to delete to fix the issue - I can now move & delete folders with hundreds of bookmarks in them and delete as many bookmarks as needed at one time.
"There is no way to select more than one item at a time in the right pane in the mac environnement. " (sic)
I think you mean there is no way to delete more than 1 item at a time in the LEFT panel, the list of folders, not in the right panel, the list of bookmarks and the contents (bookmarks) of subfolders.

Can't Delete Empty Folder in Deleted Items

Running Outlook 2013 on a Windows 8.1 machine. Exchange 2010 on SBS 2011 platform.
I have an empty folder within the deleted items folder. I can manually delete all messages within the deleted items but I cannot get that empty sub folder deleted. My permissions are set to "owner". I'm getting a message that says, "outlook
is synchronizing local changes made to items in this folder. You cannot remove this folder until the synchronization with the server is complete". I've done shift+F9 in both the deleted items and the sub folder and that hasn't helped.
Please advise.

Hello,
I recommend you check if owa has the issue. If the issue doesn't occur on owa, the issue may be related to outlook.
I find a thread that has similar error for your reference.

Can't delete Apple folder in Common Files

I went to the Genius Bar today. They were not able to solve my problem but they did a full restart of my iPod and told me to reinstall iTunes on my home computer.
Before reinstalling iTunes, I followed Apple's instructions for deleting all Apple software on my computer (Windows 7). However, I have been unable to delete the Apple folder in the Common Files folder.
I searched for hours online for solutions to deleting this file. It looks like several people have had this problem and several suggestions have been made but nothing has worked for me.
Among the things I have tried are stopping and restarting explorer.exe. I also downloaded Byetunes but it looks like I can only delete one file at a time and there must be hundreds of files in this folder. This is madness.
I would deeply appreciate as complete a list as possible of ways to delete this file.
It should not be this hard to find out how to delete a file!
Thank you.

Followed the procedures as layed out in Apple Support online, but now I still can't delete the "Apple" folder in "Common Files" (during the 'verifying you've actually deleted iTunes' step...).
Do you have the iCloud control panel currently installed? If so, try uninstalling that. Can you do the deletion now?

I am trying to clean up my iMac hard drive and find a lot of space in a folder named 'Deleted Users'...what is this and can I delete it to save space?

If a user account is deleted and the data for that account is not deleted, it is placed there. Yes, you can delete the files there.

I have just imported Iphoto library into aperture library, can I delete now the Iphoto Library ?

Hi, I have juste imported Iphoto library into Aperture Library (did a copy) - can I delete my Iphoto library as I won't use Iphoto anymore ?
Thanks Hélème

Helene,
Both of those things you pointed out are mere *metadata*.
When you imported your iPhoto library, since you did a copy, your libraries are completely independent.
When I was in your situation, I moved my iPhoto library to an external disk and then went to the Aperture library to see how it behaved, even though i was 99.99% sure my iPhoto and Aperture libraries were separate.
