Delete Confirmation Warning.  I want back.

When I use to push delete a photo it would give me a warning saying are you sure you want to delete. There was a check box that said "Dont ask again" I checked it. after a few mess ups I want the warning back. How do I get it to warn me again????

It is not outdated.
iPhoto is still storing this flag as the  "DontAskAboutDeleteConfirmation" key in ~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.iPhoto.plist
Deleting or editing this file will bring the prompt back.
But in the newer McOS X versions (since MacOS X 10.7.) are two things different:
The user library hidden by default, so it is not so easy to access the preferences files in the library
And after changing the preferences a restart is required, because of the changes in the process system. Otherwise deleting preferences files may not have any effect.
Either reveal the hidden user library:
To open the hidden User Library:
Use the Finder's "Go" menu.
Click "Go", then hold down the options key, until you are seeing "Library" in the drop down menu appear and click it.
In the Finder window that will open navigate to the folders  "Preferences".
Quit iPhoto. Remove ~/Library/Preferences/com.apple.iPhoto.plist .  Restart your Mac.
Or use an editor to change the preference.  Download and install Pref Setter from this link:
http://www.nightproductions.net/prefsetter.html
Move it to the Applications folder, select it, and ctrl-click it. Select "Open".
Type "iPhoto" into the search field and search for com.apple.iPhoto.plist
In the editor pane enter "delete" into the search field and search the entry "DontAskAboutDeleteConfirmation"
change the flag to "false" or "NO"
Save the file.
Restart your Mac.

    Your redemption code was used to acquire an activation code.  The activation code is what you need to use when you want to reinstall/enable the software again.  Check your Adobe account online to see if the number(s) can be found there.

    thanks. somehow after restoring it, ipod on my phone had another option to download them onto my phone (even though they would play so no idea) but then it allowed me to swipe the songs to delete them so they are finally gone from my phone!!!

  • I made an album just now. I went back to delete the pics from my camera roll but my only option is to "delete everywhere." I want to leave them in the new album I made..  How i can delete them from camera roll without deleting from other Album i made

    I made an album just now. I went back to delete the pics from my camera roll but my only option is to "delete everywhere." I want to leave them in the new album I made..  How i can delete them from camera roll without deleting from other Album i made

    The way that I understand that it works, is that the photos are not copied into the new albums, instead it just points to the photos - the number of photos on the iPad in Settings > General > About doesn't increase when you create new album so I assume from that that it isn't copying the photo, just pointing to it. So if you delete the photo from the camera roll you will therefore also be deleting all the pointers to it

  • I deleted my itunes library (after backing up) now i want to restore from TM to my MBA but its saying there is not enough room even though the library is 22GB and there is 27GB free on my MBA??

    Hi everyone,
    I deleted my itunes library (after backing up to my time machine) to download a large torrent,  now i want to restore my itunes library to my MBA from time machine but its saying there is not enough room on my MBA even though the library is 22GB and there is 27GB free on my MBA??

    Here's something else to consider:
    Since Snow Leopard, OS X uses a Decimal count for file size. iTunes however still uses a Binary count. What that means is: your iTunes library shows one size, while the folder shows another. Depending on the size of your library, this can be a pretty big difference.
    Yours won't be that much, but it may be enough to prevent it from moving to the MBA from the TM.

  • I want to delete photos that I have backed up from my computer, but when I go to select there is a faded trash can icon which I cant access

    I want to delete photos that I have backed up from my computer, but when I go to select there is a faded trash can icon which I cant access

    If you copied the photos in question to your iPhone by connecting to itunes on your computer you need to do this again. Start itunes on your computer, connect your iPhone, select your iPhone in itunes and select the photos tab. as long as you are connecting with the same computer you should see, in the Photos TSB, a list of the photo albums on your computer. Those that were synced previously have a check mark and are selected. Deselect those you no longer want on the phone and then click on Apply or Sync. The deselected albums will be deleted from your iPhone but they will remain on your computer.
    if you only want to remove a few specific photos from various albums on your iphone, then move those photos out of the albums they are in on your computer. Then sync with iTunes. The photos you removed from the albums on your computer will be deleted from the albums on your iPhone when you click on Apply or Sync.

  • My iPhone says that I don't have enough storage to update one of my apps so I went to delete stuff that I didn't need but every time I select what I want to delete my phone freezes, goes back to the home screen and doesn't delete anything.

    First thing to try is to reset your device. Press and hold the Home and Sleep buttons simultaneously ignoring the red slider should one appear until the Apple logo appears. Let go of the buttons and let the device restart. See if that fixes your problem.

  • I unchecked the ask first before compacting, now it takes 20 to 30 secounds to delete each messages i want to turn the ask first feature back on

    i unchecked the ask first before compacting, now it takes 20 to 30 secounds to delete each messages i want to turn the ask first feature back on, I hate the thunderbird email when any button is pushed for whatever feature the software goes haywire, plus when using a virus protection is also goes haywire what is up

    Compacting occurs when a set amount of disk space is recovered. The only way that could occur on every delete is if you have the threshold and your message size set the same
    Tools menu (alt+T) > options > Advanced > disk space and set the limit to 100Mb and compacting should happen very rarely
    If things go haywire every time you change a setting like your describing, you have far more serious issues than you are seeing. I change setting almost daily to replicate what people here tell me is happening. Usually I can not replicate their problem, let alone make things go haywire.
    If I can untangle User Agent strings, It look like your using windows 7 with internet explorer and no anti virus. You provably need to remove a virus or two before anything will work correctly.

  • Resetting playlist deletion confirmation

    When i first got itunes i didn't use playlists very much, so the first time it asked me "are you sure" when i wanted to delete one, I checked "Do not ask me again" or whatever. Now I use them more and I want to avoid accidental deletion, but how do I turn the delete confirmation back on? Thanks
    iBook G4   Mac OS X (10.4.7)   768MB RAM

    I quit iTunes, moved the .plist file, restarted iTunes, and like you said.. it prompted me with all those questions you get when you run it for the first time ("Do you want iTunes to look for music in your Home folder?" to which I said "no", and "Do you want iTunes to keep your Music folder organized?" to which I said "yes", etc.).
    All my playlists and songs were still there. The only problem I saw was that after iTunes updated my songs (presumably because I answered "yes" to the second question above), hundreds of little exclamation points showed up next to most of my songs (the one that means "file not found"). I suspect this might be because much of my library's contents are located on an external hard drive.
    I started over, deleting the file again and this time clicking "Cancel" as soon as the first "welcome window" appeared. The update step was skipped, and everything else looked normal (except for the presence of the annoying ministore panel which I have always had minimized...). But even though none of the exclamation points were there initially, as soon as i tried to play any that had had them in my last attempt, they would come up "file not found".
    So if i'm right, I have two options: keep the fresh .plist file and enjoy deletion confirmation to my heart's content... or replace the old one and be back where I started. I tried this last and found that all my old preferences were there (boo!) but it had no problem locating all my songs (yay!).
    Any ideas?

  • How can I delete latest update and go back to old one

    I have had nothing but trouble with the new update to 3.1.3 and want it OFF my phone. I want to delete it and just go back to business as usual. Does any one know how to do it? I was told that if I just do a restore, it will reinstall the latest version of OS any way. I hate the new mess I have with latest update.
    HELP!!!

    sorry, but it just looked like this last update was not ready to release and has caused so much trouble that Apple would have a fix or allow us to revert to previous level.
    You are probably not well enough informed to decide whether an upgrade is 'ready to release'. Remember there are millions of iPhones upgraded and only a very small minority with issues - many of which pre-existed 3.1.3
    I haven't had phone for very long now, but it is very frustrating to have a defective OS and phone. I would have thought this would be the place to do things LEGALLY, not hack the phone like I see on GOOGLE
    Hacking the phone is the only way to revert unless you have backups. Hacking the phone is not something that is discussed in these forums.
    You haven't even posted your problems so perhaps start there ?

  • All songs deleted, and cant get them back onto ipod.

    okay, so the other day my ipod all the sudden lost all of its 700 sum songs and all the music in my ipod library got deleted. but its still on my general computer. i have no idea how this happened.
    i took my ipod [i pod touch] to best buy, where i bought it 6 months ago, and the geek squad person said that i need to update my software on the ipod and update itunes.geek squad updated my ipod while at best buy, but she told me that i need to update itunes on my computer and i should just be able to get my songs back onto my ipod. when i hooked my ipod up to my computer when i got home, i could not find where to update itunes. and nothing happened to my ipod.
    i called bestbuy and re-told them the problem i was having. GS told me to first plug in my ipod to my computer [which i did] then sync the songs back onto my ipod.... that did no good.
    then GS proceeded to tell me to just drag and drop the songs i want back onto my ipod, that are on my computer into my music library then re-sync my ipod..... once again this did not work. and my library is not locked so there is no reason as to why this should be happening. the GS person told me that he has never heard of anything like this and that he does not know what to do.
    any help?!?

    OMG......this just happened to me...except my library is still there. I've tried re-installing itunes, restarting, & everything. It still doesn't recognize my ipod. I updated my iTunes/iPod to the newest version since it keeps asking me everyday and when I did it, it erased all of my songs & apps. I admit, my iPod was jailbroken, so I had apps on it that I'm afraid I won't be able to get back. I avoided updating my iPod because I was scared that it was gonna erase my jailbroken apps off.....but someone told me that it was best to always update regardless. I didn't think it was gonna erase my music though....it was completely full too That's not such a big deal since it's still on my computer. The main prob. is that I can't put it back on. I've tried going back to an older version and it keeps telling me that the newest version is installed and that I'm not allowed to do that. When I try to go to the iTunes tab on my ipod, it doesn't go...the same with the videos & music tabs. The only thing that works on my iPod is Safari & youtube.
    HELP ME TOO.......PLEASE! I need my music. This is the 2nd iPod that's given me ****. I'm going to Creative Zen next if nothing can be done.

  • SRM - Delete confirmation (service entry sheet)

    Hi,
    we have the 5.00SRM.
    The user tried to post twice the same confirmation (service entry sheet) so the system replicated the first one in R3 and the second is in error for the Purchase order lock (message class SAP-T100 message-id BBP_ADMIN 010).
    It's right that the second is in error (Luckly!!!), but now we don't know how delete it (the second wrong confirmation), because in the confirmation transaction the delete button is inactive. Now the user need to create a new confirmation for the same purchase order, but since now all the confirmations for that purchase order go in error.
    Please, help me ... I looked all SAP notes and forum messages but I didn't find the solution.
    Thanks

  • Reset delete playlist warning

    ok, ive searched for topics regarding this with no luck.
    ive turned off the warning dialouge that pops up when i first deleted a playlist a while back. how do i reset that warning to pop up again. im having serious problems accidently deleting heaps of my playlists.
    thanks

    absolutelly the same thing is happening to me, and it seems like the reset warnings option is missing in iTunes 7...
    In order to reset these warnings you have to manually hack into the program, which is not the greatest solution, but the only one I've found so far...
