  • I can't login, keep geting "Your  Startup Disk is Full" and asking me to delete file. if I cant login how can I delete files? Please help

    I Keep getting "your startup disk is full" ..... "You need to make more space available on your startup disk by deleting file..."  If I can't have an acess, how can I delete files. Please help..

    That means the hard drive of your computer is full, and you don't have enough free space on your computer, to do what you are trying to do. 
    You need to clear up space on your computer. 
    If you hard drive is full, check the following places to ensure they are not holding unwanted data.
    - your trash can in the dock
    - if you use iPhoto, your trash in iPhoto - launch iPhoto, and select trash in the left hand column.  iPhoto has it's own trash, and is often overlooked
    - your download folder - finder / home user / downloads - every time you download something, it stores it here. This is often overlooked as well
    - do you have more than one user on the computer?  If you do, ensure they are needed.  If not, delete them, and the contents of their home folders
    If you hard drive is very full, you may want to consider the following:
    - putting in a newer larger hard drive - (call you local apple store for prices on this)
    - deleting data off your computer
    - moving data to an external drive - (iPhoto Libraries, iTunes Libraries or iMovie events, as they are the biggest space hogs)

    The startup disk is the internal SSD in your MBA.  You may delete files by draging the file  to Trash (or clicking on them and then execute COMMAND+Delete).  Then empty Trash.

  • How can i delete apps for IOS 7.0.6 when i press the home key the "X" key doesnt appear

    how can i delete apps for IOS 7.0.6 when i press the home key the "X" key doesnt appear?

    Hi-
    This worked!. After updating to 7.0.6 a few days ago I was unable to delete apps. Called Apple support for help without success. I have NEVER entered a passcode to get in to restrictions so I know I didn't make this change (so I'm assuming that 7.0.6 did it for me). Apple wanted me to restore my iphone but thought I'd do more research first. Your advice solved the problem. THANKS!

  • How can I delete files in Diagnostics and Usage on my IPad?

    My IPad has very little space left.  I have deleted everything I can but notice there are files in Diagnostics and Usage.  How can I delete those files to free up space?

    By the way, those files in diagnostics and usage are probably not your problem, but the restore is the right step to take to solve your real problem.
    The problem is that you likely have corrupt files on your iPad caused likely by suspicious apps.  Restoring your iPad from a backup may help.  If not, restore as new, then sync your items back to your iPad very carefully and consider removing suspicious apps.
    Also check Settings > General > Usage to see if your expectations are met.

  • How can I delete files from My Mac Book Pro safely to create more space?

    Hi,
    I need to delete files from my Mac Book Pro and I am not sure how to do it safely without affecting my computers drivers or operations.
    In my Finder - All Files Section there are certain files in the Preview, marked as "PNG Image", Window Image, GIF image, XLM. when I look at them they seem scripted or sections of an image. How do I know which files are safe to remove
    I seem to find a lot of duplicated files - is there a way of stopping this from happening?
    Thanks from a little frustrated Mac Book user.

    Welcome to Apple Support Communities
    Transfer them to an external disk formatted in "MS-DOS (FAT)" with Disk Utility > http://pondini.org/OSX/DU1.html
    If you have the pictures in iPhoto, choose them with the Command key, go to File menu (on the menu bar) > Export, and copy them to the external disk. Then, connect your external disk to the PC and move them.
    If you have the pictures in Finder, steps are the same, but in this case, you will have to drag the pictures you chose to the external disk that you can find in the Finder sidebar, under "Devices"

  • How can I Delete files from LTR5 to move to Trash On OS 10.8.4?

    my set up is
    mac 0s 10.8.4 using mac book pro 2.7 GHZ with 16GB having Lacie usb 3 thunderbolt external drive storing photos and LTR 5 catalogue to do my LTR processing of 24 mg files from D600 SLR
    I have the LTR5 installed and am using it only to find out cannot move file(s) to Trashcan( MAC latest version) that doesn’t support the volume I have the photo files in. LTR5 only will permanently delete them via LTR5 only . Its an annoying step to rid the file – Is this a Bug? LTR 4 moves file(s) directly to Trash with no issues. The other LTR versions had no problem .
    I don’t recall LTR5Beta having this issue when trying to move file to trash. I was beta tester .
    LTR dialogue also says , file could not be moved to Trash folder as volume isnt supported . I have checked all preference panes to see if i can open up the trash to LTR5 discarded Files from my lacie drive where they are stored  . Often I'll move  files to trash then retrieve later from trash to import back into catalogue.
    It was suggested trying new “test” catalogue .So. I created new catalogue which acted same way; failure to move files to trash.
    As result , I have created a ” new” Trash folder within LTR5 to move discarded Files into temporary holding space; then, empty the folder contents within LTR5 as needed.
    It’s awkward , inefficient . But, it is a temporary solution in holding files until  its decided to permanently delete files. This is a short term solution till Issue is corrected.
    Does anyone else have this problem? Suggestions? 

    Thank you for sharing this thread #Post 31. Ill try permissions tweaking and see of that works .
    This was a first for me being a beta tester for LTR5 . I do  wonder when I bought the  upgrade and Downloaded LTR5  that bug  appeared  beacuse of being a beta tester .
    Trying to rule out all sorts of things here :
    Wonder if  doing a  an uninstall  and doing a reinstall will help?  Would it be a realistic painless step?
    Yesterday I worked on LTR editing files from Hard drive  many hours with bug active .
    Then all of sudden it was working ( Th1s is 3rd time its happened). If I close LTR5 then reopen later bug  appears again. I cant yet isolate the cause for  files to move and be trashed normallly!  Earlier I have trashed prefs .  Also,creating test catalogues didnt work . Tried other older drives; that failed. Will try internal drive.
    LTR 4 and earlier was bugfree so this is first time i have encountered a stubborn bug . Its as bad as mosquitoes buzzing.
    Wonder if the reinstall is best guaranteed solution other than uncheck my permissions.?
      I really appreciate the info from thread 31. Thank you .
      I'll get the bug booted.

  • How can I delete files?

    This sounds simple, but I've been having troubles with RealPlayer, so I thought I'd try reinstalling it. This means that I have to delete all RealPlayer files currently in my computer before reinstalling it. The problem is that I can't remove some of them. Some of them just reduplicate themselves when I drag them into the TRASH, and I can't delete any of them by clicking on the DELETE button. What am I missing? Incidentally, I haven't tried to contact RealPlayer because everytime in the past that I tried to get help from them, I ended up sending them a message saying that their "help" service is completely worthless. They're really bad. Incidentally, I started this because I couldn't listen to any of the RealPlayer files that I have. The RealPlayer icon would indicate that the song was playing, but there wasn't any sound. Yes, I checked my sound by playing songs from my iTunes library. No problem there.

    My Realplayer version 10.1.0 works fine. Rather than
    attempt to delete your version, have you tried
    dowloading the latest version and installing it? It
    will simply overwrite the previous one.
    If you want to delete applications and all their
    associated files, try downloading the free
    AppCleaner. Works a treat!
    I already had version 10.1 installed. Since I posted my inquiry, I finally managed to delete every remnant of RealPlayer--or so I thought. I then reinstalled version 10.1, but it still doesn't work. Part of the procedure of installing RealPlayer is to double-click on the file you have just dragged into the Applications folder. The problem is that when I did that, a RealPlayer song icon appeared, which didn't play. It said that it was playing, but it wasn't. I'd like to delete the file for that song icon, but it only appears when I double-click on the RealPlayer icon in my Applications folder. Strange to say, I can't find it . I've tried Spotlight and I've tried searching every part of the computer, but it's hidden somewhere and only appears when I double-click on the RealPlayer icon in my Applications folder. Incidentally, RealPlayer is prone to such problems.
    Oh, thanks for the tip about AppCleaner. I'll download it now, and I'll use it to delete that pesky RealPlayer song--as soon as I can find it.

  • How can i delete files on an external hard drive

    I am trying to transfer all my photos from iPhoto onto an external hard drive.  The external hard drive appears to be full.  How do I delete the files on the external hard drive so I can add the photos.

    If you have a few, you can easily use the drag 'n drop method: just have the external attached, open it in the Finder, and drag files to your internal's trash can. Empty the trash before disconnecting the external (or the files will not be deleted). Make sure you have the files backed up somewhere before ditching them on the external drive (unless you absolutely do not ever need them again).
