How do I delete a partition so that I recover the disk space?
I partitioned my terabyte hard drive to run Mavericks (as well as Yosemite). I followed the Genius instructions from the local store and used Disk Utility to delete Macintosh HD Mavericks. The Disk Utility message said the partition was deleted but it is still there. Only Mavericks was deleted, not the partition. So I have over 600 GB there empty. How do I make that disk space available to Yosemite?
MikaelK:
Are you deleting the photos from the Main library section of iPhoto or from inside an album? If it's from an album you must use the CommandOptionDelete key combination followed by emptying the iPhoto trash.
If you did delete the photo from the main library then I'm as in the dark as Lori.

How to I delete messages(Saved) so that I can create enough space for my update?
If by "update" you mean you are trying to update iOS, then the way to do this is to use iTunes on your computer to perform the update.
Plug your iPhone into (the current version of) iTunes on your computer. Let it sync. Then do "Check for Updates" from the iPhone's summary page in iTunes. -

How do I delete web site addresses that appear in the navigation window drop-down menu?
In Explorer you can quickly delete any web address in the navigation window drop-down list. Also, only addresses that I actually type into the navigation window appear in the drop-down. I like this system.
But in Firefox, I cannot discern the rules at work. Web addresses appear and disappear in the drop-down list seemingly at random, and no way to delete addresses.Selecting "Never Remember History" will make you enter [[Private Browsing]] mode, so be careful with selecting that.
See:

* [[Clearing Location bar history]]

How do I delete a partition on a hard drive?
I have a 2012 MacBook Pro with OS X Lion (don't know the version), I installed windows 7 shortly afterwards and primarily used that. I've now sold the laptop but need to delete the windows partition and that's where the problem started. The original Mac partition stopped working, so I deleted the content on the bootcamp partition and reinstalled OSX onto that one, now I am unable to delete the original partition so only half of the 500GB hard drive is available to use. Can anyone tell me how to delete the old partition so I can then just re-install OSX so it's ready for its new owner? I also have two recovery HD partitions. Please help!
make it easy, kill 2 birds with 1 stone
reboot holding 3 keys - option, command, r - you should see a spinning globe, if not try again
open disk utilty, select your HD on the left and erase/reformat as mac journaled
exit du, choose install OSX
result - no more windows or other random partitions and a fresh OSX like out of the box -

HT1657 How do I delete a rental movie that will not load on my iPad
How do I delete a rental movie that does not load
Have you tried swiping across the progress bar and see of a delete button comes up that way?
Or try Settings>General>Usage>Storage>Videos. If the movie appears in the setting, try the edit button in the upper right corner.
You can also try resetting the iPad and then see if you can delete the download.
Reset the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider if it appears on the screen - let go of the buttons. Let the iPad start up. -

How do you delete a purchased song that doesn't give you the delete option when swiping? This was a free song when I first got my pad. Now I can't delete it. I only get the play option, or to download it again. The song is "Twinkling Lights", I think that's right.
Any help with this would be greatly appreciated.
Thanks!I think it is in the cloud, so how do I delete it? Also, I have IOS 7.1.1

How can I delete old rental movies that are still on my iPad, but are no longer viewable because the rental has expired?
I have a similar problem. The default answer on the web is to open Videos on your iPad, then touch and hold the movie you wish to delete, then tap the little cross that appears. Alternatively, you can connect to iTunes, select your device in the list, scroll down to the Rentals summary and delete from there.
I have a problem with both of these solutions! The Video App on my iPad does not contain any video icons, just an option to browse my shared library, so I can't delete it from there... ANd in iTunes, the movie in the Rntals tab on my device summary is greyed out, so I can't do anything from there either. But the movie is taking up 2.5 Gb....
Can someone please offer an alternative to resetting the device entirely?!
