Clearing out old software
I am trying to clear out all remnants of old software, before upgrading to Snow Leopard. (I don't want to do a clean install, just put everything in order before doing a normal one.) For example, I discovered that my trial of Retrospect 8 had left the engine running, so to speak. I just now managed to remove that (after a bit of research).
I also see that MacFUSE has left a preferences pane. I don't know what this software is, but suspect it was installed by some other software. Anyway, it has a button to Remove the software, but when I press it, it says the software doesn't seem to be installed. How do I get rid of this preferences pane, and make sure all trace of MacFUSE are gone?
And how do I make sure there aren't other half-uninstalled things lying around?...
TIA

Is there any way so that I Being able to clear out old data from the Order
Hi Friends,
Is there any way so that I Being able to clear out old data from the Order Gate forecast, tolerance, and confirmed order to date tables on a monthly basis?
Means I want data in data table for particular time (I want that if suppose today is 13-11-2008 then my data table must contain data from 13-10-2008 to 13-11-2008.
Is it possible thru ABAP development or thru any t codes ?
Any pointers will be rewarded.
Regardshi,
Before archiving you have to put the Deletion flag for the object(May be for PO, MMR etc as per your req.)...
After that the you use the archiving procedure to archive the docs which are already flagged for deletion...
For MMR you use the transaction SARA...and its respective object for the archiving....
You can use the SDN search to see the many threads on it...
Or use this link as per your req. and make the search...

How can I clear out old process data? In my test environment, I have several hung tasks that will not terminate. The tasks exist, but the process they were associated with no longer do.
There was a bug in 8.0 that I believe is fixed in 8.2 where tasks assigned to a group were not removed when the process was terminated.
Your easiest solution right now is:
- create a dummy local user called "dummy" or something like that
- go into adminui/process management/task management, find the tasks, and allocate them to the dummy user.
They will still be there, but at least they won't irritate anyone.

How to clear out old WWV_FLOW_FILES
I'm updating an application that does a file upload into wwv_flow_files and then puts the data into a collection which is maintained thru a series of forms.
The application has DELETE_ALL_COLLECTIONS to handle the clearing out of the collection and our Purge Sessions is set at a day.
The problem I see is the application doesn't have a delete for the on the WWV_Flow_Files table for the data loaded.
How can I delete the old data, or do I have to now delete the data from WWV_FLOW_FILE_OBJECTS$ for the ID's I know should be deleted?
Does the Admintrator tool have a purge on WWV_Flow_Files like the Purge Sessions?
Thanks

Why won't trash clear out old time machine folders?
I have moved older folders into trash and when I click on Empty secure trash, it loads, gives me the banded progress, the goes away, never giving me the solid band that it is clearing out trash.
Any suggestions?You're not supposed to delete folders from within Time Machine. Time Machine uses very specific journalling and indexing and if you delete folders in there you run the risk of losing all access to your backups.
That being said try emptying the trash non-securely. If that is not visible as an option go into Finder -> Preferences -> Advanced and uncheck Empty Trash Securely. -
Hi there... I'm brand new to these forums so if I am being totally redundant here, please excuse.
I have a PowerBook G4 that is just about 6 months past the extended Applecare Protection plan.

Processor Speed: 1.33 GHz

I just got an iPhone and went to activate it only to find that I was still using 10.3.9 and couldn't do it. So I go get 10.5 and install it. When it came time to do the software updates, I didn't have enough room on my hard drive. The capacity is a bit under 56 GB and I have less than 2GB available now that I have installed 10.5. What is the most efficient way to go through and weed out what I don't want or need, without accidentally deleting something important?David:
Are the hard drives you are recommending the kind that install internally?
They are. You can have them professionally installed or, if you are a bit handy, you can do it yourself with directions from ifixit.
Here are few tips you may find helpful:
• Print out the ifixit directions as well as the screw guide ahead of time.
• Be sure you have the right tools. You don't want to damage the screw heads or you may never get them out. And the Torx 8 screw driver is critical.
• I use small medicine cups one for the screws in each step. I nest them so that the last ones out and the first to go back in are on top. You can use an ice cube tray, egg carton, dixie cups etc. (Some users report cutting up the screw guide and placing the applicable section in each container.)
• Be very careful pulling out leads. Hold the lead as close to the plug as possible and wiggle (the plug ) to loosen its grip. Don’t hold the wires and pull as that can damage the cable, or worse, in some instances pull the wires out of the plug. Indeed, some users have pulled the socket off the logic board! Use needle nose pliers or tweezers if you can access the plug, or nudge the plug with a small instrument to help loosen its grip.
• Use force gently in removing parts. Separating upper and lower case takes some doing. Use a plastic tool (spudge) so as not to leave marks.
• Refer to the screw guide when reassembling computer. Putting longer screws in the wrong place can perforate the circuit board.
what is the effect of the different speeds you mentioned (7200 vs. 5400 rpm)?
You would think the 7200 rpm would be the faster of the two. However, bench tests have shown that is not necessarily the case, and the 5400 rpm perform as well as the 7200 rpm. You can opt for greater capacity than greater speed without losing much
Do I need more RAM?
The maximum RAM capacity for your computer is 2 GB: 2 - PC-2700 DDR333 200-pin SO-DIMM. You currently have a 512 MB module in one slot and a 256 module in the other. I suggest that you replace the 256 MB module with a 1 GB module, which will give you a decent 1.5 GB. You can upgrade the other slot either now or at a later time, if you think you would like to do so.
Please do post back with further questions or comments.
Cheers

I am taking over a website that someone else designed using
Front Page. I use Dreamweaver 4. I was able to download everything
she had on the remote file with ease to my local file. But now
I’m having weird problems updating the site.
Site address is
http://www.cmsanm.com.
First I created a folder called “NEW” for
creating new pages and making changes. The first page I created is
“index.” That uploaded OK onto remote site but when I
try to view the page, I get error message “HTTP 404 Not
Found.” I know the address is correct
(www.cmsanm.com/NEW/index.htm).
OK, weirdness #2 – She had many “OLD” and
“OLDER” files on remote site with a bunch of junk
I’ll want to get rid of. But one folder is called
“www” that contains all the pages that are up there
now. If I put my “NEW” folder within the
“www” folder, it will display on the web with the
“NEW” address extension listed above. But it
doesn’t have the “www” extension, even though
that is a valid folder and that’s where everything is.
Weirdness #3 – When I try to delete new folders and
files I uploaded, it won’t let me. It says “An FTP
error occurred – cannot remove remote folder [folder name].
550 Can’t remove directory: No such file or directory.”
I’ve tried deleting all the files within the folders first
and I can do that, but can’t delete the folders.
It’s really a messy thing now and I have no clue what
to do to fix it. Any ideas from the nice pros out there?
Thanks!

the address IS correct; I clicked on the link above and went
straight to your page. No 404 error for me!

wild guess: why are there many ? in your text quoted above?
Are you using a special keyboard and
special characters? If you use such characters to name your
files and folders you upload, that might
be why you're having problems?

Sorry if I wasn't as clear as I could have been. I'm trying to clean out the Journal mailbox after exporting the messages to a .PST file. I've tried formatting the date different ways and when I check it the format seems OK. For some reason I'm
still getting the same error. I've tried this which was suggested and I received the same error listed above:
Search-Mailbox -Identity JournalMailbox -TargetFolder inbox -TargetMailbox jimk -SearchQuery "Received:'${$startDate}'..'${$endDate}'" -DeleteContent -Force
For some reason the -SearchQuery is not accepting the variable.
Thanks, JimThank You Yan Li! I ran commands both ways and still received errors. Here's the first command and the error message:
Search-Mailbox -Identity JournalMailbox -TargetFolder inbox -TargetMailbox jimk -SearchQuery "Received:"$startDate".."$endDate"" -DeleteContent -Force

[PS] C:\scripts>.\CleanOutOldMsg.ps1

Restore to clear out old firmware etc
I've been getting a lot of dropped calls. At a Genius Bar it was suggested that I do a new phone restore, because there were traces of old stuff (firmware and os stuff I think). I did that, but lost my app settings. I realize that I can right click on my phone in iTunes and restore from backup, but will that also restore the old stuff that I'm trying to eliminate?
IOW, is it possible to do a new phone restore and maintain my old app settings? I'm mainly concerned about data like my mileage settings from a mileage app.The only traces of stuff from 2008 would be the data included with your iPhone's backup.
This link provides the data that is included with your iPhone's backup which is updated by iTunes as the first step during the iTunes sync process.
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1766
When restoring your iPhone with iTunes, it is completely erased first followed by the firmware being re-installed. After the firmware is re-installed you are prompted to restore from your iPhone's backup, which is the default selection. The other selection is as a new iPhone or not from your iPhone's backup. Either way, the iPhone is completely erased first followed by the firmware being re-installed. Any traces of stuff would be from your iPhone's backup only if you restore from the backup.
3rd party app settings and data created and stored by a 3rd party app is included with your iPhone's backup. If you restore as a new iPhone or not from your iPhone's backup, all 3rd party app settings and data created and stored by a 3rd party app will be lost. Restoring from a backup is all or none - you can't pick and choose which data that is included with the backup is restored and which isn't. -
Help clearing out old programs after upgrade
Before upgrading from 10.5 to 10.6, I had moved my application shortcuts into subfolders (i.e. Office Apps, Multi-media, etc). The upgrade did not find them and these icons remain in those folders. When I try to launch the Apple programs, a message states that this is an old version and cannot run.
How do I safely remove those old programs?Here's Uninstalling Apps.

Is there any way to clear out old text message after x many days?
Having the issue right now with my text messages where sometimes the phone opens the text message chat with a certain person and not show any messages. None of the message will load, and I can imagine this has to do with the amount of texts in that chat since it doesn't delete them even after say 30 days. I have texts from way back in Febuary. After searching around on the phone, it doesn't seem to be a feature that will remove texts after so many days. Either I have to clear the entire chat or deal with the messages having to load but that takes 10 minutes. I'd rather not delete the most recent messages but rather messages from however many days ago.
Any plan for BB to release a setting like this? Almost postive the phones had this feature on the older devices now but not on version 10.1 and after looking at the 10.2 release the feature isn't advertised.Hey fuzzymonkey30,
Welcome to the BlackBerry Support Community Forums.
Thanks for the question.
This feature is not available in BlackBerry 10. We appreciate the feedback though.
Let me know if you have any more questions.
Cheers.

How can I clear out old apple mail sent items?
If I delete them, they just move over to mail trash. If I try to empty the trash it toggles the same mail back to the sent folder?
Mail/Preferences/Accounts/Mailbox Behaviors - check to see if store sent messages on server is checked. You can also set a delete time there.

Clearing out previous password history
Hi everyone! As part of our User maintenance is to clear out old user password histories. Just want to ask if there's a way that i could clear out the old/previous password history of a user?
Thank you very much in advance!
Regards,
BrailleWow - to get a response from The John Burton, I feel so honored!
No, John, I believe that you are talking about when you are on the Account Identification Screen. I am talking about when you have confirmed the customer and are on the Interaction Record Screen and you realize that you want to exit without adding a record. By clicking on END, it exits but creates a blank interaction record. When I click on Cancel, the screen exits to the Home Page but when the user goes into the interaction record for the next customer, the details on the botton of the screen (Last Interactions) is from the previous customer. It is as the Cancel does not clear out the previous information.
Thanks for your time,
Simon
