Get rid of the partitions on my macbook (black)
i recently made a partition for windows (through bootcamp) and instead of loading windows, i loaded Ubuntu, i didnt like it so i tried to get my 20gb of partition space back, now i cant, and in the process of trying to get it back my computer made another partition of 2gb. How do i get these 22gb back to just mac os x?
ps, i am in the process of restoring my laptop..
thanks for the help!
ok, so i got the big partitions deleted, but i have one left that i cant delete, its called "Linux Swap", it wont let me mount it to delete it. To delete the others I went to disc utility --> (my hard drive) --> and clicked partition on the top of it. i can make my hard drive from 96 to 111 gb, but when i try to apply this it says "partition failed", how do i get my 15gb back? and how do i delete this Linux swap, which has 1gb of my hd space

How to get rid of the partition? all options grayed out.
How do I get rid of the Windows partition? I went to the disk utility and selected my hard drive but all the partition options are grayed out. Similarly, when I select the NTFS partition, I cannot erase it.
I want to merge the partitions, create one single partition. I do not care if all the information is lost, only that my hard drive is unified and clean again. How do I do this?Hi,
Hi Ryan and welcome to Discussions,
have you looked inside your Applications/Utilities Folder for an app named 'BootCamp Assistant' ?
If there, consider yourself lucky
Don't run it yet, since it won't work with your current date and time.
Follow the instructions here http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1309?viewlocale=en_US to completely remove the BootCamp Windows partition and reassign the used diskspace back to OSX.
If you don't find the BootCamp Assistant in the Utilities folder, you have to boot from your OSX Tiger DVD to repartition your harddisk to one OSX volume and then reinstall Tiger and/or restore your OSX from a backup.

How can I get rid of the malware on my macbook air?
I have not downloaded any suspicious programs or clicked on any links but suddenly today, ads keep popping up on google and on websites like Tumblr, Facebook, etc. Pictures are even turning to ads, like the picture gets replaced with an ad for a farm game. I have disabled extensions, I have deleted cookies and cleared my cache, I have put chrome adblock on, and that keeps a lot of the ads away but the same 'mackeeper' link pops up on google search no matter what, as well as zeobit.com. I'm worried I'm going to have to get professional help.
There is no need to download anything to solve this problem.
You may have installed the "VSearch" trojan. Remove it as follows.
Malware is always changing to get around the defenses against it. These instructions are valid as of now, as far as I know. They won't necessarily be valid in the future. Anyone finding this comment a few days or more after it was posted should look for more recent discussions or start a new one.
Back up all data before proceeding.
Step 1
From the Safari menu bar, select
Safari ▹ Preferences... ▹ Extensions
Uninstall any extensions you don't know you need, including any that have the word "Spigot," "Trovi," or "Conduit" in the description. If in doubt, uninstall all extensions. Do the equivalent for the Firefox and Chrome browsers, if you use either of those.
Reset the home page and default search engine in all the browsers, if it was changed.
Step 2
Triple-click anywhere in the line below on this page to select it:
/Library/LaunchAgents/com.vsearch.agent.plist
Right-click or control-click the line and select
Services ▹ Reveal in Finder (or just Reveal)
from the contextual menu.* A folder should open with an item named "com.vsearch.agent.plist" selected. Drag the selected item to the Trash. You may be prompted for your administrator login password.
Repeat with each of these lines:
/Library/LaunchDaemons/com.vsearch.daemon.plist
/Library/LaunchDaemons/com.vsearch.helper.plist
/Library/LaunchDaemons/Jack.plist
Restart the computer and empty the Trash. Then delete the following items in the same way:
/Library/Application Support/VSearch
/Library/PrivilegedHelperTools/Jack
/System/Library/Frameworks/VSearch.framework
~/Library/Internet Plug-Ins/ConduitNPAPIPlugin.plugin
Some of these items may be absent, in which case you'll get a message that the file can't be found. Skip that item and go on to the next one.
The problem may have started when you downloaded and ran an application called "MPlayerX." That's the name of a legitimate free movie player, but the name is also used fraudulently to distribute VSearch. If there is an item with that name in the Applications folder, delete it, and if you wish, replace it with the genuine article from mplayerx.org.
This trojan is often found on illegal websites that traffic in pirated content such as movies. If you, or anyone else who uses the computer, visit such sites and follow prompts to install software, you can expect more of the same, and worse, to follow.
You may be wondering why you didn't get a warning from Gatekeeper about installing software from an unknown developer, as you should have. The reason is that the Internet criminal behind VSearch has a codesigning certificate issued by Apple, which causes Gatekeeper to give the installer a pass. Apple could revoke the certificate, but as of this writing has not done so, even though it's aware of the problem. This failure of oversight has compromised both Gatekeeper and the Developer ID program. You can't rely on Gatekeeper alone to protect you from harmful software.
*If you don't see the contextual menu item, copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. In the Finder, select
Go ▹ Go to Folder...
from the menu bar and paste into the box that opens by pressing command-V. You won't see what you pasted because a line break is included. Press return. -
How do I safely get rid of a partition?
hi
i recently bought a powrmac g4 off ebay with a 933 Mhz processor, 1.25 GB RAM and a 120 gig HD that was partitioned into 2 drives (by, i assume, the previous owner) with one of them running the OS. I just installed a new shiney Maxtor 200 gig HD and wanted to get rid of the partition in the 1st HD but still boot from it. The problem is that the OS already on the drive is newer than the one that I have the disk for, so if I erase it (the drive) then re-install the OS with the disk I have, it will be out of date. The other problem is that I'm not sure of the risks involved in this operation; there are some applications on the 1st HD that I don't have the disks for (as they came with the computer) that are valuable and I don't want to lose.
So...
How do I safely get rid of the partition on the 12o GB hard drive?
Thanks
DaveUse the Restore function of Disk Utility or CarbonCopyCloner to copy all the files from the 120GB HD to the new HD. Then boot to the new HD & use Disk Utility to erase & format the 120GB HD to one partition. (Make sure the new HD & files are working properly before you erase the old HD.)
You may be able to use only 128GB on the 200GB HD. Look at these links.

How do I get rid of the "other" space on my macbook air?
I have 11" Macbook Air and mostly use it just for music and as a home computer and do not have a lot of documents or anything that take up a large portion of the storage. When I look at the storage though it has this "other" portion that takes up almost half of my storage. How can I get rid of the "other" space on my computer?

Bearing in mind that 'Other' consists of emails, contacts, appointments, data, document files, OSX and its libraries and more, I would be very careful what you delete. It is not just backup, it is your stuff. -

How do I get rid of the spinning pinwheel on my MacBook? I'm assuming I need to clean it up, but not sure how.
A little more information is needed. Which model MacBook? Which version of OS X? How much ram is installed? Finally how much free space is left on your hard drive?

How do i get rid of a bot on my macbook
How do i get rid of a bot on my macbook?
I seriously doubt you have a bot; more than likely someone hacked into your Gmail account and got your password. Everybody always immediately blames the computer - and if you had a Windows machine or are running Windows, then, yes, possible. Having a Mac - not so much. You could have inadvertantly gotten some bad email attachment, but that can't harm your Mac.
So, first: are you running Windows? If yes, get some antivirus software and run it on the Windows partition.
Second, when you say your password "is being changed" - this is happening without you or Gmail doing anyting? Immediately open a different account with a very difficult to guess password and send an email to your contacts explaining why you have changed your email address - also tell them to ignore anything further with your old address. Inform Gmail (if possible - don't know how that outfit works) that you wish to close the "old" email account immediately.
Third, download ClamXav - free AV software for the Mac and run it to see if there is something.
Please do all three steps right away and post back with results. -
How do I get rid of the pop-up ads in Safari, OSX 10.9.3
Hello,
I've just bought a MacBook Air one month ago and it's been working fine till recently when all of a sudden I get redirected to various pages whilst surfing the web. It seems the first page to load on the popped up tabs is Adcash.com. This problem occurs on varoius websites, but not on all of them. For instance I don't have this problem with apple.com and other secure sites. Is this some kind of virus, malware or similar?
Apple support hasn't been able to help me and I've tried to remove cookies, and looked around here for help, to no avail. One thread contained advice to remove certain files on my hard drive but none of those files were present on my disk, so I was back to square one. What can I do to get rid of the pop-ups?
This is my first Mac and I'm not particularly computer litterate so I hope you guys can help me out.
Thanks in advance!1. This procedure is a diagnostic test. It changes nothing, for better or worse, and therefore will not, in itself, solve the problem. But with the aid of the test results, the solution may take a few minutes, instead of hours or days.
2. If you don't already have a current backup, back up all data before doing anything else. The backup is necessary on general principle, not because of anything in the test procedure. Backup is always a must, and when you're having any kind of trouble with the computer, you may be at higher than usual risk of losing data, whether you follow these instructions or not.
There are ways to back up a computer that isn't fully functional. Ask if you need guidance.
3. Below are instructions to run a UNIX shell script, a type of program. All it does is to collect information about the state of the computer. That information goes nowhere unless you choose to share it. However, you should be cautious about running any kind of program (not just a shell script) at the behest of a stranger. If you have doubts, search this site for other discussions in which this procedure has been followed without any report of ill effects. If you can't satisfy yourself that the instructions are safe, don't follow them. Ask for other options.
Here's a summary of what you need to do, if you choose to proceed:
☞ Copy a line of text in this window to the Clipboard.
☞ Paste into the window of another application.
☞ Wait for the test to run. It usually takes a few minutes.
☞ Paste the results, which will have been copied automatically, back into a reply on this page.
The sequence is: copy, paste, wait, paste again. You don't need to copy a second time. Details follow.
4. You may have started the computer in "safe" mode. Preferably, these steps should be taken in “normal” mode, under the conditions in which the problem is reproduced. If the system is now in safe mode and works well enough in normal mode to run the test, restart as usual. If you can only test in safe mode, do that.
5. If you have more than one user, and the one affected by the problem is not an administrator, then please run the test twice: once while logged in as the affected user, and once as an administrator. The results may be different. The user that is created automatically on a new computer when you start it for the first time is an administrator. If you can't log in as an administrator, test as the affected user. Most personal Macs have only one user, and in that case this section doesn’t apply. Don't log in as root.
6. The script is a single long line, all of which must be selected. You can accomplish this easily by triple-clicking anywhere in the line. The whole line will highlight, though you may not see all of it in the browser window, and you can then copy it. If you try to select the line by dragging across the part you can see, you won't get all of it.

Copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C.
7. 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. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid.
Click anywhere in the Terminal window and paste by pressing command-V. The text you pasted should vanish immediately. If it doesn't, press the return key.
8. If you see an error message in the Terminal window such as "syntax error," enter
exec bash
and press return. Then paste the script again.
9. If you're logged in as an administrator, you'll be prompted for your login password. Nothing will be displayed when you type it. You will not see the usual dots in place of typed characters. Make sure caps lock is off. Type carefully and then press return. You may get a one-time warning to be careful. If you make three failed attempts to enter the password, the test will run anyway, but it will produce less information. In most cases, the difference is not important. If you don't know the password, or if you prefer not to enter it, press the key combination control-C or just press return three times at the password prompt. Again, the script will still run.
If you're not logged in as an administrator, you won't be prompted for a password. The test will still run. It just won't do anything that requires administrator privileges.
10. The test may take a few minutes to run, depending on how many files you have and the speed of the computer. A computer that's abnormally slow may take longer to run the test. While it's running, there will be nothing in the Terminal window and no indication of progress. Wait for the line
[Process completed]
to appear. If you don't see it within half an hour or so, the test probably won't complete in a reasonable time. In that case, close the Terminal window and report the results. No harm will be done.
11. When the test is complete, quit Terminal. The results will have been copied to the Clipboard automatically. They are not shown in the Terminal window. Please don't copy anything from there. All you have to do is start a reply to this comment and then paste by pressing command-V again.
At the top of the results, there will be a line that begins with "Model Identifier." If you don't see that, but instead see a mass of gibberish, you didn't wait for the "Process completed" message to appear in the Terminal window. Please wait for it and try again.
If any private information, such as your name or email address, appears in the results, anonymize it before posting. Usually that won't be necessary.
12. When you post the results, you might see the message, "You have included content in your post that is not permitted." It means that the forum software has misidentified something in the post as a violation of the rules. If that happens, please post the test results on Pastebin, then post a link here to the page you created.
Note: This is a public forum, and others may give you advice based on the results of the test. They speak only for themselves, and I don't necessarily agree with them.

How do I get rid of the pop-up on my ipad2 that wants me to login to iCloud for an account i changed to a new userid?
It is an iPad 2, 64GB, with wifi and 3G, running the latest iOS 8.1.2, with 43.7 GB available. I am not using the cloud. Everything I need is backed up, so loss of the information on this device is not critical.
About 2 years ago I canceled this account and created a new one when I abandoned my road runner email and change to gmail. Tech support talked me through the transition then and it is fine on all my devices (iPhone, Mac-mini, Macbook Air) except the iPad 2, which i use the most. The same thing happened to my mothers iPad 3 a few months ago, with the same repeating pop-up after changing email/appleid accounts), Apple support helped me restore hers, but mine is no longer a covered device.
This issue started about a year ago, I can cancel the pop-up but it continues to returns, it went away for a few months, then somewhere in the last few months it started happening daily, now it cycles through about every 5 - 15 seconds. Can't do anything, I have reset the iPad 2 all that did was delete my existing settings, it will not accept the old password all I can do is cancel it (until it returns again).
Need the directions to delete the old appleid and accept the new applied on this device.Does this apply?

How to undo the "never store password for this site"?
A friend did this on my computer on a site where I'm very frequently logging in. How can I erase this preference just for this site, i.e. I want Safari to ask me again whether I want my password stored and then answer yes.
