Delete file automatically

hi all...
i need your help about some matter...
recently we face some problem regarding on how to clean the old file automatically in portal. The problem as below...
''Currently we are sending seven reports per day to PEP. We store them with a time stamp (date of creation). That means there is no overwrite and the used space will increase every day .So, we would like to delete all files that are older than 30 days. (The only exeption are reports that have been created on the 1st day of the month. These shall not be deleted.) Is there a possibility to do this automatically? Else I will have to clean-up the reports manually every now and then which will be a lot of effort.
is that possible to do like the user want?
thanks in advance

Hi,
I would not recommand to write a portal application which launch this script.
When you are familar with writing portal applications than it is much more easier to write a portal service which can be assigned to a KM scheduler task and run on an regular interval.
This portal service go through your folder and delete all files in the KM which you do not need anymore.
An alternative way of cause is to use the mentioned script (keep in mind that you do not want to delete the first file of the month) by using the WebDAV access to the KM repository. For example you can assign a drive letter to your Portal Repository when using Portal Drive. In this case you can use as well the mentioned scripted.
Best regards

Deleted files automatically return

Hi there,
I have a strange problem. Somehow when I delete a collection of .torrent files (and empty secure my trash), after a while the deleted files 'automatically' return in my movies-folder. I want them deleted...
What can cause this problem?
It drives me crazy!

The deleted files reappear after several minutes, I can't find what triggers this.
In a terminal session this came up:

OS X :: Mac Trash Bin Deletes Files Automatically?

How i can stop the automaticall empty trash?
when i move a file to trsh , i recieve the massage from the finder asked me the password, thereafter, i do Ok , then the file move to trash, when i open the trash i found it empty automatically

Please take these steps if you're prompted for a password when moving items in your home folder to the Trash.
1. Triple-click anywhere in the line below on this page to select it:
~/.Trash
2. Right-click or control-click the highlighted line and select
Services ▹ Show Info in Finder (or just Show Info)
from the contextual menu.* An Info dialog should open.
3. The dialog should show "You can read and write" in the Sharing & Permissions section. If that's not what it shows, click the padlock icon in the lower right corner of the window and enter your password when prompted. Use the plus- and minus-sign buttons to give yourself Read & Write access and "everyone" No Access. Delete any other entries in the access list.
4. In the General section, uncheck the box marked Locked if it's checked.
5. From the action menu (gear icon) at the bottom of the dialog, select Apply to enclosed items and confirm.
6. Close the Info window and test.
*If you don't see the contextual menu item, copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. Open a TextEdit window and paste into it (command-V). Select the line you just pasted and continue as above.

How to stop iTines from deleting files automatically

I'm running the most recent version of iTunes on a 64 bit Windows 7 box. iTunes deletes all podcasts immediately after a single play. In settings, "use default settings" is unchecked; "Episodes to keep" is set to "All episodes". Anyone got any ideas?

Open the Preferences panel (from the Edit menu on Windows, Dreamweaver menu on a Mac), and select the Site category. Make sure there's a check mark in the checkbox labelled Dependent Files: Prompt on put/check in.

cor-el,
Thanks for your prompt reply. However, the sources you gave do not seem to apply exactly to my situation. I have attached some screenshots that show what the dialogue box looks like for a pdf download, and what my settings in the Apps panel of Options are. You will note in the first screenshot that I have checked the box to handle this file type automatically; however, the next time I try to download a file of that type, the same dialogue box appears looking exactly like the one shown, so checking the "automatic" option appears to do nothing. The files to be downloaded from my Gmail messages are not generic or altered file types - they are shown as pdf, doc, docx, etc. So while your intent was good, your post did not help. Thanks anyway.

I have deleted my "Automatically Add to iTunes" file

Hi,I have deleted my "Automatically Add to iTunes" file and I would like to know how can I have it back.

There are quite a few "Automatic ..." options available for iTunes, but I don't believe there is any specifically worded as you have indicated.
What exactly are you trying to do (or not do)? We need more information. Thanks.

Hi there, my iMac has automatically been deleting files from my thumb drive when I try to open them. The lost files aren'tin the trash or anywhere else I can think of. Any ideas?

If one drive works and the other doesn't that points the finger at the errant drive. They are cheap, replace it. To check formatting right click it in Finder and choose Get Info and look for Format type. Finally do you eject it when removing it or do you just pull it out of the USB connection?

Will a Mac automatically delete files/videos/pictures from an external hard drive?

I plugged in one of my external hard drives that contained documents, photos, and videos formatted from Windows. When I plugged it into my MacBook none of my files were on the external hard drive and I didn't see any prompts asking if I wanted to reformat my hard drive so I'm not sure if it was automatically deleted. Will a MacBook automatically delete files, pictures, videos from an external hard drive?

No.
What format is the external drive?

How to permanently delete files from trash?

I usually see TV series online. Every time I visit to the website, it automatically downloads a Mac_Installer file to my Downloads folder. I delete the file without opening it and secure empty the trash. When I visit the website again, the same file is downloaded to my Downloads folder, and the "previous deleted file" from the trash can reappears on it. How to solve this matter? My computer is a MacBook Pro and is running OS X Mavericks.
Thanks.

Try erasing free space using Disk Utility.
Erase free disk space
When you delete files in Mac OS X, your Mac deletes the information used to access the deleted files but doesn't physically remove them. Although the space used by the deleted files appears as free space, the deleted files remain on the disk until new files are written over them. As a result, these files can be recovered. Erasing free space does not delete any other files on your disk besides the ones that you already deleted.
After the drive is connected, launch the Disk Utility application in any of the following ways:
Type the first few letters of its name into Spotlight. Select it from the results.
Go Finder > Applications > Utilities > Disk Utility
Go Launchpad > Utilities > Disk Utility
Once you are in the Disk Utility app, select the disk or partition you would like to erase from the left.
Select the Erase tab.
Choose the Erase Free Space button.
Use the Slider to choose how many times you would like to write over the free space.
Select Erase Free Space.
Note: After this process starts, you can cancel it at any time without harming any of your data. You might see a message stating that you are running out of disk space. This is normal and to be expected. You can ignore this message.
When the process is complete, you should have the same amount of free space. If you do not have the same amount of free space, try restarting the computer.
I hope I helped.

TS4009 How do I clean up mail in my icloud? I have already deleted old mail on all devices, and emptied the junk & deleted files, but it still shows that I am at max on my icloud. What do I do to free up space? (photos & apps do not take up that much roo

How do I clean up mail in my icloud? I have already deleted old mail (from all my e-mail accounts) on all devices, and emptied the junk & deleted files, but it still shows that I am at max on my icloud. What do I do to free up space? (photos & apps do not take up that much room). When I go to manage storage on any device & it will display how much room each program or app is using, it still shows that my e-mail is taking up the most room. Is there a way to actually log on to the icloud server to manage what it stored there? If so, how do I do it? Also, on a related subject, why does my mail not sync accross all devices? ie. when I delete an email on one device, why do I still see it on all my other devices? How can I change this?

Mail is backed up automatically. If you make backups automatically, open Mail application and then, open the Time Machine app (in /Applications/Utilities). You will access to the Time Machine interface, and you will be able to see all your mails of all the backups you have, and you will be able to restore them. It means that your mails are backed up onto the Time Capsule

How directly delete file from iPod Classic?

What a pity that when listening to the music file and press and hold the center button in the menu that appears, there is no "Delete file".

Given that the product line has been withdrawn I suspect there is little merit in sending your idea to iPod Feedback but it is there if you want it. What I used to do was give such tracks a one star rating and use smart playlist rules that would automatically exclude tracks with one star so they would be removed on the next sync.

Cannot delete file ...bug?

This appears like a bug to me...see if you agree.
A file opened for read-only access and memory mapped using the map method of FileChannel cannot be deleted even when the channel is closed. An example of this is the simple Grep.java example from NIO modified only to try and delete the file. On Win2K, the delete fails. Once the channel is closed, it should be able to delete the file. Is this a bug?
import java.io.*;
import java.nio.*;
import java.nio.channels.*;
import java.nio.charset.*;
import java.util.regex.*; public class Grep {     // Charset and decoder for ISO-8859-15
private static Charset charset = Charset.forName("ISO-8859-15");
private static CharsetDecoder decoder = charset.newDecoder(); // Pattern used to parse lines
private static Pattern linePattern
= Pattern.compile(".*\r?\n"); // The input pattern that we're looking for
private static Pattern pattern; // Compile the pattern from the command line
private static void compile(String pat) {
try {
pattern = Pattern.compile(pat);
} catch (PatternSyntaxException x) {
System.err.println(x.getMessage());
System.exit(1);
} // Use the linePattern to break the given CharBuffer into lines, applying
// the input pattern to each line to see if we have a match
private static void grep(File f, CharBuffer cb) {
Matcher lm = linePattern.matcher(cb);// Line matcher
Matcher pm = null;// Pattern matcher
int lines = 0;
while (lm.find()) {
lines++;
CharSequence cs = lm.group(); // The current line
if (pm == null)
pm = pattern.matcher(cs);
else
pm.reset(cs);
if (pm.find())
System.out.print(f + ":" + lines + ":" + cs);
if (lm.end() == cb.limit())
break;
} // Search for occurrences of the input pattern in the given file
private static void grep(File f) throws IOException { // Open the file and then get a channel from the stream
FileInputStream fis = new FileInputStream(f);
FileChannel fc = fis.getChannel(); // Get the file's size and then map it into memory
int sz = (int)fc.size();
MappedByteBuffer bb = fc.map(FileChannel.MapMode.READ_ONLY, 0, sz); // Decode the file into a char buffer
CharBuffer cb = decoder.decode(bb); // Perform the search
grep(f, cb); // Close the channel and the stream
fc.close();
// Try deleting the file =================================
boolean deleted = f.delete();
if (!(deleted)) {
System.err.println("Could not delete file " + f.getName());
System.exit(4);
// End try deleting file =================================
} public static void main(String[] args) {
if (args.length < 2) {
System.err.println("Usage: java Grep pattern file...");
return;
compile(args[0]);
for (int i = 1; i < args.length; i++) {
File f = new File(args);
try {
grep(f);
} catch (IOException x) {
System.err.println(f + ": " + x);

Here is the minimal code that demonstrates this. It opens the file specified on the command line, maps it to memory, prints it out, and then tries to delete the file.
There is no question about calling close on a File object. The close method is invoked on a stream or a channel. In the case of a channel, it should automatically close the stream. However, in this code I am closing the stream and the channel.

I have an iMac 5.1 with Mac OSX 10.6.8 and 2 GB memory and an L2 cache of 4 GB. lately I have been receiving error messages of " start up disk almost full; please delete files." is the start up disk the same thing as the hard drive?

I have an iMac 5.1 with Mac OSX 10.6.8 and 2 GB memory and an L2 cache of 4 GB. lately I have been receiving error messages of " start up disk almost full; please delete files." is the start up disk the same thing as the hard drive? I opened the hard drive and from the column on the left of the menu I've selected "search for" and under that " all images" then "all documents" I've deleted a few files from each. Are documents and images that I have deleted from here also deleted from the folders on my desktop?

You should never, EVER let a conputer hard drive get completely full, EVER!
With Macs and OS X, you shouldn't let the hard drive get below 15 GBs or less of free data space.
If it does, it's time for some hard drive housecleaning.
Follow some of my tips for cleaning out, deleting and archiving data from your Mac's internal hard drive.
Have you emptied your iMac's Trash icon in the Dock?
If you use iPhoto, iPhoto has its own trash that needs to be emptied, also.
If you store images in other locations other than iPhoto, then you will have to weed through these to determine what to archive and what to delete.
If you use Apple Mail app, Apple Mail also has its own trash area that needs to be emptied, too!
Delete any old or no longer needed emails and/or archive to disc, flash drives or external hard drive, older emails you want to save.
Delete any other mail in your Junk folders. Also, look through your Sent Mail to see if there is anything that can be deleted.
Other things you can do to gain space.
Once you have around 15 GBs regained, do a search, download and install OmniDisk Sweeper.
This app will help you locate files that you can move/archive and/or delete from your system.
STAY AWAY FROM DELETING ANY FILES FROM OS X SYSTEM FOLDER!
Look through your Documents folder and delete any type of old useless type files like "Read Me" type files.
Again, archive to disc, flash drives, ext. hard drives or delete any old documents you no longer use or immediately need.
Look in your Applications folder, if you have applications you haven't used in a long time, if the app doesn't have a dedicated uninstaller, then you can simply drag it into the OS X Trash icon. IF the application has an uninstaller app, then use it to completely delete the app from your Mac.
Download an app called OnyX for your version of OS X.
When you install and launch it, let it do its initial automatic tests, then go to the cleaning and maintenance tabs and run the maintenance tabs that let OnyX clean out all web browser cache files, web browser histories, system cache files, delete old error log files.
Typically, iTunes and iPhoto libraries are the biggest users of HD space.
move these files/data off of your internal drive to the external hard drive and deleted off of the internal hard drive.
If you have any other large folders of personal data or projects, these should be archived or moved, also, to the optical discs, flash drives or external hard drive and then either archived to disc and/or deleted off your internal hard drive.
Good Luck!

How do I delete files from the start up disk?

I keep getting the messsage that my start up disk is full and I shoudl delte files, which I have tried to do, by putting stuff inthe trash and emptying it, but that does not seem to be enough and I keep getting the message. ireally don't ahve much stored on my computer except for a lot of photos. Could the photos be the problem?

Empty the Trash if you haven't already done so. If you use iPhoto, empty its internal Trash first:
iPhoto ▹ Empty Trash
Then reboot. That will temporarily free up some space.
According to Apple documentation, you need at least 9 GB of available space on the startup volume (as shown in the Finder Info window) for normal operation. You also need enough space left over to allow for growth of your data. There is little or no performance advantage to having more available space than the minimum Apple recommends. Available storage space that you'll never use is wasted space.
If you're using Time Machine to back up a portable Mac, some of the free space will be used to make local snapshots, which are backup copies of files you've recently deleted. The space occupied by local snapshots is reported as available by the Finder, and should be considered as such. In the Storage display of System Information, local snapshots are shown as "Backups." The snapshots are automatically deleted when they expire or when free space falls below a certain level. You ordinarily don't need to, and should not, delete local snapshots yourself.
To locate large files, you can use Spotlight. That method may not find large folders that contain a lot of small files.
You can more effectively use a tool such as OmniDiskSweeper (ODS) to explore your volume and find out what's taking up the space. You can also delete files with it, but don't do that unless you're sure that you know what you're deleting and that all data is safely backed up. That means you have multiple backups, not just one.
Deleting files inside an iPhoto or Aperture library will corrupt the library. Any changes to a photo library must be made from within the application that created it. The same goes for Mail files.
Proceed further only if the problem isn't solved by the above steps.
ODS can't see the whole filesystem when you run it just by double-clicking; it only sees files that you have permission to read. To see everything, you have to run it as root.
Back up all data now.
Install ODS in the Applications folder as usual. Quit it if it's running.
Triple-click the line of text below on this page to select it, then copy the selected text to the Clipboard (command-C):sudo /Applications/OmniDiskSweeper.app/Contents/MacOS/OmniDiskSweeper
Launch the Terminal application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid.
Paste into the Terminal window (command-V). You'll be prompted for your login password, which won't be displayed when you type it. You may get a one-time warning not to screw up. If you see a message that your username "is not in the sudoers file," then you're not logged in as an administrator.
The application window will open, eventually showing all files in all folders. It may take some minutes for ODS to list all the files.
I don't recommend that you make a habit of doing this. Don't delete anything while running ODS as root. If something needs to be deleted, make sure you know what it is and how it got there, and then delete it by other, safer, means. When in doubt, leave it alone or ask for guidance.
When you're done with ODS, quit it and also quit Terminal.

In addition to deleting files, what can I do to speed up my MacBook?

Hello!
My MacBook Pro (mid-2010 w/ 16gb of memory and 250gb hard drive) has been running really slow. I know I need to delete a ton of files as my internal disk is near full. My questions are:
My system report says the majority of disk space is being taken up by "Other". What can I delete to whittle that down?
How can I use this EtreCheck report to improve my MacBook's performance?

Thank you!

"etrecheck" is of no use for solving this problem.
For information about the Other category in the Storage display, see this support article. If the Storage display seems to be inaccurate, try rebuilding the Spotlight index.
Empty the Trash if you haven't already done so. If you use iPhoto, empty its internal Trash first:
          iPhoto ▹ Empty Trash
Do the same in other applications, such as Aperture, that have an internal Trash feature. Then restart the computer. That will temporarily free up some space.
According to Apple documentation, you need at least 9 GB of available space on the startup volume (as shown in the Finder Info window) for normal operation—not the mythical 10%, 15%, or any other percentage. You also need enough space left over to allow for growth of the data. There is little or no performance advantage to having more available space than the minimum Apple recommends. Available storage space that you'll never use is wasted space.
When Time Machine backs up a portable Mac, some of the free space will be used to make local snapshots, which are backup copies of recently deleted files. The space occupied by local snapshots is reported as available by the Finder, and should be considered as such. In the Storage display of System Information, local snapshots are shown as Backups. The snapshots are automatically deleted when they expire or when free space falls below a certain level. You ordinarily don't need to, and should not, delete local snapshots yourself. If you followed bad advice to disable local snapshots by running a shell command, you may have ended up with a lot of data in the Other category. Ask for instructions in that case.
See this support article for some simple ways to free up storage space.
You can more effectively use a tool such as OmniDiskSweeper (ODS) or GrandPerspective (GP) to explore the volume and find out what's taking up the space. You can also delete files with it, but don't do that unless you're sure that you know what you're deleting and that all data is safely backed up. That means you have multiple backups, not just one. Note that ODS only works with OS X 10.8 or later. If you're running an older OS version, use GP.
Deleting files inside a photo or iTunes library will corrupt the library. Changes to such a library must be made from within the application that created it. The same goes for Mail files.
Proceed further only if the problem isn't solved by the above steps.
ODS or GP can't see the whole filesystem when you run it just by double-clicking; it only sees files that you have permission to read. To see everything, you have to run it as root.
Back up all data now.
Install the app in the Applications folder as usual. Quit it if it's running.
Triple-click anywhere in the corresponding line of text below on this page to select it, then copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C.
For ODS:
security execute-with-privileges /A*/OmniDiskSweeper.app/*/M*/* 2>&-
For GP:
security execute-with-privileges /A*/GrandPerspective.app/*/M*/* 2>&-
Launch the built-in Terminal application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad and start typing the name.
Paste into the Terminal window by pressing command-V. You'll be prompted for your login password.
The application window will open behind other open windows. When you scan a volume, the window will eventually show all files in all folders, sorted by size. It may take a few minutes for the app to finish scanning.
I don't recommend that you make a habit of doing this. Don't delete anything as root. If something needs to be deleted, make sure you know what it is and how it got there, and then delete it by other, safer, means. When in doubt, leave it alone or ask for guidance.
When you're done with the app, quit it and also quit Terminal.
