Do i need to clean up local storage under safari

do i need to clean up local storage that is found
under safari

No. You do not need to clean up anything.
If you wish, you can empty caches.
Empty Caches
    Safari > Preference > Advanced
    Checkmark the box for "Show Develop menu in menu bar".
    Develop menu will appear in the Safari menu bar.
    Click Develop and select "Empty Caches" from the dropdown.
Best.

Need information on "Flash local storage" please

Does anyone know about "Flash local storage"? Where is it? what sort of data can be stored there? how you see it and delete it?
Friend wanted me to check out Pandora and reading through their FAQs I found this interesting tidbit.
Note that Flash Local Storage, which holds your Pandora account and log-in information, is shared globally across all user accounts and browsers on a computer. This means that even if someone visits Pandora.com in another browser... the last account left signed in to Pandora will appear the next time anyone visits Pandora.com on that computer.
It go me wondering what other data is being stashed into this "storage" without my knowledge.

No.
dogs got to it and now there are bite marks on it and the on and off switch was pulled off

What is "local storage" in Safari 5.1.7

Why is it in Safari 5.1.7 that it always takes a couple of reset Safari's to actually clear out local storage? Everything else always clears out, just local storage will pop back in ...

Might be the security fixes > Safari 5.1.10 for Snow Leopard

How does one clear the Local Storage in Safari 6.0?

I used to be able to delete the cookies in the Local Stiorage folder. But the old path ~/Library/Safari/LocalStorage doesn't exist anymore since the system got updated to OSX 10.7.4 and Safari 6.0. And as ever emptying the cache via the develop drop-down menue doesn't clear the cookies stored in Local Storage.
I am totally at loss, where these cookies are hiding in my system but really want to get rid of them. Firefox is an alternative but it is tiresome to use this browser as it keeps on blocking things I want to do or asking me a little bit too frequently for permission etc. Can anyone explain the Local Storage issue to me please?

hpr3, thanks for your response but you didn't read my post correctly. I am not referring to 'normal' cookies. The ones which are stored under the section Local Storage are special and survive the general 'clear all website data' action via Safari's preferences. I know several people have pointed this out before me. I was able to clear these cookies in the Local Storage folder before but it was always quite a lot of 'clicking through' to be done and one had to go through the Finder via user/library/safari/local storage etc. I recall there was a folder involved named Macromedia as well. But with the upgrade of the operating system and Safari this path doesn't exist anymore.
If you clear the cookies via preferences, then click out of Privacy and back in, you might notice that even though you haven't used your web browser at all, there are still cookies which magically re-appear. And they are tagged as Local Storage.
Now, can anyone else come up with a helpful answer?

Local storage resource need and use. How it difference from actual VM instance drives?

Hi,
I am not able to quite understand the use of local storage resource that we configure from service definition file. The local storage is not durable and provides access same as file storage we would typically use in local environment like c:\my.txt.
As this local storage is not durable; so is the information stored on (for example C drive) role instance VM. So what is the advantage we get by using local storage resource? Instead we can save it on C drive of role instance VM. Why local storage
is recommended instead of using VM's drive?
Please let me know your views.

Hi,
>>So what is the advantage we get by using local storage resource?
Because of the local storage is not durable, On a cloud service, we can create a small local storage where you can save temporary files, this is a powerful model for some scenarios, , especially highly scalable applications, please have
a look at below articlesfor more details.

Live migration to HA failed leaving VHD on local storage and VM in cluster = Unsupported Cluster Configuration

Hi all
Fun one here, I've been moving non-HA VMs to a HA and everything has been working perfectly until now. All this is being performed on Hyper-V 2012R2, Windows Server 2012R2 and VMM 2012R2.
For some reason on the VMs failed the migration with an error 10608 "Cannot create or update a highly available virtual machine because Virtual Machine Manager could not locate or access Drive:\Folder" The odd thing is the drive\folder is
a local storage one and I selected a CSV in the migration wizard.
The net result is that the VM is half configured into the cluster but the VHD is still on local storage. Hence the "unsupported cluster configuration" error.
The question is how do I roll back? I either need to get the VM out of the cluster and back into a non-HA state or move the VHD onto the CSV. Not sure if the latter is really a option.
I've foolishly clicked "Ignore" on the repair so now I can't use the "undo" option (brain fade moment on my part).
Any help gratefully received as I'm a bit stuck with this.
Thanks
Rob

Hi Simar
Thanks for the advice, I've now got the VM back in a stable state and running HA.
Just to finish off the thread for future I did the following
- Shutdown the VM
- Remove the VM from the Failover Cluster Manager (as you say this did leave the VM configuration intact)
- I was unable to import the VM as per your instructions so I copied the VHD to another folder on the local storage and took a note of the VM configuration.
- Deleted the VM from VMM so this removed all the configuration details/old VHD.
- Built a new VM using the details I saved from the point above
- Copied the VHD into the new VMs folder and attached it to the VM.
- Started it up and reconfigured networking
- Use VMM to make the VM HA.
I believe I have found the reason for the initial error, it appears there was a empty folder in the Snapshot folder, probably from an old Checkpoint that hadn't cleaned up properly when it was deleted.
The system is up and running now so thanks again for the advice.

How do I download a movie to my phone? when I click 'rent' through itunes, I get a message that there is not enough available local storage, but I can manage my local device storage usage in 'Settings'. I have activated icloud, but this has not helped.

How do I download a movie to my iphone 3G? When I click 'rent' in itunes, I get a message that there is not enough available local storage, but I can manage storage on my device in 'Settings'. I have activated icloud, but don't know how to change my storage so that I can rent and watch the movie on my phone. thanks for any help you can give.

I always do my Rentals with the itunes program on the computer.
Make rental from itunes store. It will show in movies under library, DO NOT click to play it. Plug in the device to the computer. Click the name of the device on left. Click on movies. There is an option to copy to the device. Sync. obviously you still need space on ipad to put rental but you can have it take computers hard drive space until you need it.

How can i get more local storage space on my iphone 4

I want to put more song on my iphone 4 but it keeps saying i dont have enough local staorage space. How can i get more local storage space on my iphone 4?

You don't. Delete 'stuff' you don't need or buy a phone with more storage. you can not increase or upgrade the internal storage in the iPhone.

Do I need to keep a local copy?

All of my music is on a single external drive.
Once itunes match upoads/match all of my music, do I need to keep the external drive connected to one of my computer?
Can I store the external drive in my safe or even trow it out and keep everything on the cloud without any local storage?
Thank You

Thank you for your response. However I am still puzzled about having to keep a local copy. To be safe, this mean that I also have to keep a backup of my local copy as well.
If you care about your data, yes you should. Redundant backup plans are what keeps data safe.

ITune Match has a copy my entire song collection as both links to my songs known to the Apple Store and cloud copies of my songs it could not match. So effectively iTunes Match has my entire 10,000 song collection but I am still forced to keep a backup of my song collection in a safe or on another cloud service like Dropbox or I risk loosing it all when my local drive eventually fails!
It's not a true copy. Think if it as a mirror. For example I purchased the recently remastered early Rush albums on CD. There was one album in each box in 24-bit, 96 kHz which I have ripped and then converted to AAC @ 256 Kbps for the highest quality AAC track I can get. Now, most of these tracks were matched to tracks in the iTunes Store (which is fine since I'm going to be listening to them on my iPhone), but they are not the same tracks that are in my iTunes library. If I had a disaster I would not be able to restore the tracks I spent to much time on, I'd have to settle for the tracks I can get from the iTunes Store. For me this is not an optimal solution, which is why I keep local backups.
If none of this is important to you, or if your other personal data is not important to you, then by all means don't backup. The choice is yours. But if you do not backup you will eventually lose data.

Need Help with Backup and Storage

Over the past few months I have been making the transition from PC to Mac. A "clean install", if you will.
In addition to iPhones and iPads, we now have a new Mac mini which serves as a HTPC and general home computer, 2 laptops (Air and Pro), all connected (some wirelessly and some wired) through AirPort Extreme and extended AirPort Express.
The one missing piece of the puzzle is backup and storage. I have no backup (which can't continue) and the only storage is on the hard drives in the various devices themselves.
After spending days pouring through this forum and others, I am now thinking about getting a 2TB Time Capsule for backup and a 6TB G-Raid for storage.
The G-Raid, I'm assuming, will have to be connected directly to the mini by Firewire. As it will largely be used for storing our DVDs and CDs, I don't think that's an issue but wonder if it will be easy to move files between it and the other devices?
Are there any flaws in this plan? Is there a better way of doing it?
I would appreciate any comments.

The one issue you will have is that you have multiple
iDevices, multiple computers and multiple users. If
you are using iTunes to manage your media, you
will need to put the media storage on a computer that
will be running all the time and have iTunes running on
that and set up for Home Sharing. Then, on each device,
you can select what material gets copied to the device
and what material will stream only.
As far as backups, I personally maintain clones on portable
drives for each of my computers and, depending on the data,
backup data on USB memory sticks or additional portables.
As for my media, I have a pair of 2TB drives connected via
USB to an Airport Extreme Base Station and have my media
files stored there. One is the main and the other is a backup.

Retrieve variable value from local Storage and display on canvas

Hi
I'm working on a project that has multiple html files (the projects are split into 12 so 12 different edge projects and im linking them via window.open()). I have a variable that keeps track of correct answers stored in LocalStorage html object. I have managed to get the localStorage variable to increment up by one each time the object is correct however my last step is to get the variable and them display the result on the canvas. I have tried
var outPut localStorage.getItem(' ') method to retrieve the variable then used the set and get method to display the result however it doesn't work. Im not sure if I need a for loop to go though the localStorage and get the elements
Code:
// insert code to be run when the composition is fully loaded here
yepnope({nope:['jquery-ui-1.10.0.custom.min.js','jquery.ui.touch-punch.min.js'],complete: init}); // load the jquery files
sym.setVariable("myScore", 0);
var c = localStorage["myCount"] || 0; //loading from localStorage
function init(){
sym.getSymbol("barLimit").$('scrubber').draggable({start: function(e){
},drag: function(e,ui){ // start: ... // Find original position of dragged image
var leftLimitScrubber = sym.getSymbol('barLimit').$('scrubber').position().left; // position of the scrubber
var rightLimitScrubber = sym.getSymbol('barLimit').$('leftLimit').position().left;
var LimitTwoLeft = sym.getSymbol('barLimit').$('rightLimit').position().left;
if(leftLimitScrubber == rightLimitScrubber){
sym.getSymbol('correctBar1').play('in'); //
sym.getSymbol('nextButton').play('in');
sym.getSymbol('incorrectBar1').play('out'); //
sym.getSymbol('thumbsDown1').play('out'); //
sym.getSymbol('thumbsUp1').play('in'); //
sym.getSymbol('congrats').play('in'); //
localStorage["myCount"] = parseInt(c)+1; //Converting string to number, and then saving it
console.log("numberOfCorrectAnswers", localStorage["myCount"]);
var finalScore = sym.getVariable("myScore");
finalScore = c;
sym.setVariable("myScore", finalScore);
sym.$("Score").html(finalScore);
} else if(leftLimitScrubber == LimitTwoLeft){
sym.getSymbol('incorrectBar1').play('in');
sym.getSymbol('correctBar1').play('out');
sym.getSymbol('thumbsUp1').play('out');
sym.getSymbol('thumbsDown1').play('in');
axis: "x",
containment: "parent"
       //for (var i = 0; i < localStorage.length; i++){ // iterate throught the local storage
         //var getItem = localStorage.getItem(localStorage.key(i));
          //if(getItem == 'numberOfCorrectAnswers' ){
The above is the code for the 12th project in this projects it needs to display the variable inside the object localStorage and display on the canvas.
Any help will mean a lot. Thank You in advance
P.S edge animate has a lot of bugs hard to code in

what you need to do is to create a text box and set a default value of zero. Once that is don't you need a code on the stage which grabs the value form the localStorage object. I used the .text() jquery method to display the value on the canvas. So the zero will be replaced with whatever the value of the localStorage is.
You also need a if statement to check if the localStorage is undefined, if its not then grab the value and display on the canvas.
e.g
var number = localStorage['finalValue']; // for the sake of completeness I had to put this line of code
if( number ! = undefined){ // if not undefined so the object exits then ...
     sym.$(' (text identifier) '). text(number); // note text identifier is the name of the text box you create in edge
} // Done

Moving Photos from iCloud Photo Library to Local Storage

Scenario - I've a fully migrated library of photos/videos using iCloud Photo Library on iPhone and Mac. It's near the limit of the iCloud storage plan I purchased and want to retain. I'd like to move older and less frequently used content from iCloud Photo Library to more permanent archival storage.
[This is for two reasons. First, I prefer to use the Full Resolution setting on mobile devices, and that will be impossible as the entire library grows beyond the storage capacity of even the largest mobile devices. Second, I don't feel the need to pay for super-sized iCloud storage for content rarely needed and only needed on a Mac.]
The only option I've identified in Photos to do this is to Export (and delete from iCloud), which exports the original photos, but does not preserve useful Photos metadata and organization, such as Albums.
What one would might like to see is a way to designate selection portions of the Library for local storage only (including backup within the Photos app library package), so those photos can be manipulated within Photos alongside iCloud content, but don't consume iCloud or mobile device space. Or, in the alternative, one would like to see a way to Export content to merge into a separate Photos library package, preserving the metadata/organization. In that way, one could maintain one Photos library as current iCloud synced content, and one or more local-only Photos library packages with archival content (with, importantly, the Export function to move content between the two preserving metadata).
Does anyone know if there's a way to do this? If not, Apple, would you consider coming up with a way to address this need?

{quote:title=Nissin101 wrote @ 3:36pm EMT:}{quote}
Well I was able to move photos from the camera roll to the photo library by sending *the pictures via email to my dad's blackberry, then saving them to my computer from his phone, then putting them back on into the photo library*.
This is what I said originally.
{quote:title=Nissin101 wrote @ 4:08pm EMT:}{quote}
Alright I guess that answers my question then. However, just as I said I was able to transfer photos from my camera roll to my photo library, so at least that is possible.
I never said that I did it directly, neither did I mean to imply that I was looking for a direct solution. This I guess is where our misunderstanding comes from. I just did not feel like repeating the whole process I went through. Regardless, I would rather this thread not derail into who said what and whose misunderstanding who. I now know that it is not possible to get pictures from the photo library to the camera roll in any way, so my question is answered for now at least.

Adobe Flash FAIL: Adobe Flash Player local storage settings incorrect. Module 'Resume' feature may not work on this computer.

Using a Windows 2012 RDS Environment, we have users connecting to a CPD website, and as part of the CPD they need to run a systems checker. When they run the systems checker they get the following error message: "Adobe Flash FAIL: Adobe Flash Player local storage settings incorrect. Module 'Resume' feature may not work on this computer". All users are connecting to this environment with Windows CE Clients,I have checked the setting on Adobe Flash and they seem correct but as each user has its own profile on the RDS session, is there something that I should be setting for each user. I have added the website to the trusted sites and it has made no difference. Any ideas

It sounds like what's happening is that Flash Player can't write or read from the local shared objects in the user's redirected home directory because we disallow traversing junctions in the broker process. This behavior was disabled to address a vulnerability identified in some of John Forshaw's research into the IE broker last year.
You can enable this behavior by adding the following setting to mms.cfg:
EnableInsecureJunctionBehavior=1
That said, you can probably gather from the name of the flag that we don't really recommend this approach, and disable this attack surface by default. There's some risk that a network attacker could craft content that abuses fundamental issues with how Windows handles Junctions to write to arbitrary locations.
Unfortunately, there's not a simple or easy workaround that I'm aware of (but it's been ages since I've administered a Windows domain) for this kind of NAS/SAN-backed terminal server environment where Flash is not able to access \Users\<user>\AppData\Roaming\Macromedia\Flash Player\ without traversing a junction.

VSphere 6, can't use FT with local storage

Hi guys,
Now that I have figured out that when turning on FT without shared storage results in no datastores being shown in the FT dialog box in the web client, I've run into a different problem (thus the new discussion topic).
When I turn on FT for a VM that is on local storage, I am now able to select the datastores, but when I select local storage for the secondary VM, I get a bunch of errors that tell me the secondary host can't reach the .vmx file (of course - that's why I needed the shared storage - for these little files). Shouldn't FT be copying the .vmx file and whatever else it needs to be shared to the right spot, since I've told it where that is? Do I need to move my VM to shared storage, then move my VMDKs and stuff to local storage manually?
Here's a screenshot of the dialog:
Here's the current hardware setup:
ESX1:
- IP: 192.168.220.51
- Datastores: ESX1-LocalStorage and NFS
ESX2:
- IP: 192.168.220.52
- Datastores: ESX2-LocalStorage and NFS
My primary VM for FT is on ESX2, and trying to get my secondary on ESX1.
Thanks!

The availability guide isn't accurate (I'll work on getting it corrected). The requirements for FT storage are:
- Shared storage: FT config file, tie-breaker file, primary VM vmx file
- Local storage: all other files (VMDKs, etc).
The limitation with this however is that FT can't move or replicate your VM files to a new location, so if the host where the primary VMs VMDKs are stored is unavailable FT won't be able to spin up a new secondary.
Example:
3 hosts (A, B, C)
Primary VM running on A - VMDKs stored on local storage
Secondary VM running on B - VMDKs stored on local storage
If host A fails, the secondary on B will take over and become primary. However, until host A comes back on-line FT will not be able to create a new secondary.
Does this make sense?
Hi, gs_khalsa,
That does make sense. It isn't all that I think people were hoping it'd be. I think a lot of people were envisioning setting up 2 or 3 hosts in a small environment with no shared storage, and using FT as a share-nothing setup that would ensure a VM never goes down as long as at least one host is alive and the VM isn't corrupted. It's 99% there, but the need for shared storage (that is presumably HA storage, since we don't want the storage to be our single point of failure) for 3 little files kills the vision. FT not being able to spin up a new secondary on a 3rd host seems like it could have been done, too, since FT obviously knows how - it just doesn't automatically assume it should use that 3rd host. Maybe it's more complex that it sounds to actually achieve. At least we have multiple vCPU support now, which is a big step forward. Maybe these smaller milestones will come about in sub-version upgrades *crosses fingers*.
By the way, I appreciate your responses - they've been very helpful in understanding how what I thought the new FT was and where that idea is off target. Thank you.

How do I get rid of the 'local storage' dialog once I deny it?

Whenever I try to view a video with IE11, an Adobe Flash Player Settings dialog opens up, covering the center of the video, saying:
Local Storage
www.whatever.com is requesting permission to store information on your computer.
Requested: up to 10 KB
Currently used: 0 KB
Allow or Deny
If I Deny, the unwanted, permanently annoying dialog remains, obscuring the center of the video and ruining the user experience, even though many videos still continue to run perfectly fine behind it.
My expectation is that once the question has been asked and answered, this ridiculous dialog needs to disappear!
I've intentionally set my Flash Player control panel to ask me whenever a site wants to store info on my HD, so I can avoid local storage whenever possible, yet occasionally be able to decide, depending on circumstances, to allow local storage to cure occasional jerky streaming video problems. The only other choices are to prevent all sites from storing, or allow all sites to store.
Is there a setting that will make this dialog go away once I've answered the question?

I suspect you are running into a "clickjacking" issue, specific to your system's dpi, video driver, or some related component. Please see this post for details:
