Can i safely delete the indexedDB folder from profile? 3gb+ is alot

saving a backup of profile and discovered 3gb folder indexedDB was wondering if its safe to delete...or what it is even for.

This folder is used for use by applications to store data for offline usage.
*Firefox/Tools > Options > Advanced > Network > Offline Web Content and User Data
You would normally have to give Firefox permission to store data this way, so you should know where it comes from.
You can inspect and manage the permissions for all domains on the <b>about:permissions</b> page or for the current domain via the "Site Identity Button" (globe/padlock) on the location bar and click "More Information" to open "Page Info" and go to the Permissions tab.

If I move a mailbox from my imap account to "on my mac" can I safely delete the folder from the mail server and still be able to read the messages?

You certainly can.
Be aware that the emails you move to local storage ("on my Mac") will be the only copies that remain.

Can't rectify a problem after trying to delete the Movie folder from iDisk

A little while ago I deleted the folder named "Movies" from my iDisk. I had never used it so I thought I could just get rid of it. Since then whenever I start the laptop, presumably at the stage it syncs the iDisk, I get the message.. ...There is a problem deleting the folder "Movies" . You do not have permission to delete this folder. You can check your permissions in the Info panel in the Finder.
Its as if the command to try to delete this folder is undoable but simply won't go away. Its really irritating. I accept I'll have to live with the folder, I just want to get rid of the recurring message.
I can see now that the Movie folder is one I'm going to have to live with!
How can I get back to the default folder setup so this message doesn't come up any more.
By the way, The "permissions" on the iDisk say that I have read / write privileges.
Many thanks... iain B

I accidentally deleted the documents folder from my hard drive. can I recover it?

I accidentally deleted the documents folder (and its contents) from my ibook hard drive. Can I recover it?

It takes a really expensive data recovery service to get back things that have been deleted.
You could try Data Rescue 3, if you're desperate to get the documents back.

System Requirements:
http://www.prosofteng.com/products/data_rescue_sysreq.php
If you want to try this, stop using the iBook immediately, and wait until you get the recovery software because every time you save something to your hard drive (even if it's only a link in your browser history), you risk overwriting the files you deleted.

Can I safely delete the backup on my iPhone?

I recently upgraded from an iPhone 4 to an iPhone 6. I backed up my 4 to my computer and then transferred all the info from it (contacts, etc) to my 6. But the backup of the 4 is still on my iPhone 6 and since it's taking up a lot of space I'd like to delete it from the 6 but not my computer (in case I need it again). I just want to make sure that deleting it on my phone won't also "sync delete" it on my computer (I'm not totally sure how syncing works).

Syncing and backing up to iTunes are two different things:
Sync your iPhone, iPad and iPod with iTunes using USB - Apple Support
Create and delete iPhone, iPad, and iPod touch backups in iTunes - Apple Support
But the backup of the 4 is still on my iPhone 6 and since it's taking up a lot of space I'd like to delete it from the 6 but not my computer (in case I need it again).
Not sure what you mean delete the back up from your iphone 6

Can I safely delete the contents of Content.IE5?

I'm running MacOS 10.6.8 (Snow Leopard) and using Bootcamp 3 (I think) so run Windows XP SP3. My Bootcamp drive is formatted in FAT32, There is a hidden folder in Windows called Content.IE5 where, as I understand it, Internet Explorer stores all of its temporary files. My folder has grown to over 700 MB, and it doesn't get any smaller when I click on the delete temporary files button in IE.
The folder itself is invisible in Windows, but I can see it when I navigate through the Bootcamp drive in Mac OS.
I found two links regarding this problem, one from Microsoft
http://support.microsoft.com/?scid=kb;en-us;301057
http://www.paessler.com/blog/2009/04/17/prtg-7/how-to-get-rid-of-huge-default-us erlocal-settingstemporary-internet-filescontentie5-folders
As the second link explains, there are severral issues that make it quite difficult to clear the contents of this directory, such as the fact that it belonds to the "default user" and the fact that it is always in use. But as a Mac user running Bootcamp, I have the ability to navigate directly to the directory while running Mac OS and delete the contents manually which otherwise is not possible when running in Windows! My question to the community is should I do it? Or rather, has anyone else attempted this, and if so, did you brake anything in Windows or did it all turn out honky dorey?
Many thanks.

Thanks. The clip in the events folder is in Apple Intermediate Codec.
A clip from the same video in the Original Movies folder is also in Apple Intermediate Codec but with larger pixel dimensions. I'm assuming this isn't H.264 as you mentioned should be there? See attached images.
The original movie is shot in 1080p AVCHD. But when I imported it into iMovie I did so at the iMovie optimised 920 x 540px as most movies I edit will only ever appear online for the moment (I do archive original HD footage from important footage to the iMovie Camera Archives for future use).

I accidentily deleted the "yesterday" folder from my history list. How do I get it back (the folder, not the contents)?

I meant to delete the contents of the "yesterday" history folder, but accidentily deleted the folder itself (with the little clock in front of it) by by right clicking, then choosing delete from the dropdown menu when "yesterday" was highlighted. Can't figure out how to put that folder (or collection site or whatever it is) back on the list. Thanks for any help you can provide.

Is there any way to delete the favorites folder from the mac mail sidebar?

I recently made the mistake of flagging two email messages. Immediately I now see a "Flagged" icon in my Mac Mail sidebar, right under the Inbox. I the "unflagged" the messages. They went away but the Flagged icon won't. It now seems to be a permanent fixture of my mail sidebar. Is there any way to move, relocate or delete a mailbox icon you don't use and don't want to see?

There's no "downgrade" from OS X Server 10.6 Snow Leopard Server to client.
Acquire the current OS X client software, boot the DVD and use Disk Utility to erase the target disk, and reinstall the software.
Leaving the box with the server software running, with the services stopped, adds negligible performance overhead. If any.
