How do I delete caches in Lion and which ones can be deleted?
you can delete all of them, they will be recreated as soon as the app opens again.
Clearing Local Caches
quit all open apps
open Finder press "shift+command+G" and type ~/Library/Caches
Drag all files and folders to the trash
Enter login password when prompted
Reboot
your system may seem slower after reboot, this is because the caches are being rebuilt.
Clearing Application Caches
quit all open apps
open Finder Press "shift+command+G" and type /Library/Caches
Drag all files and folders to the trash
Reboot

How do I delete pix. In the edit mode the "delete" tab is red and I can't delete any pix.
If the delete tab is red after you tap the edit button, then you have to select the pictures that you want to delete by tapping on them. A blue check mark will appear in the lower right corner of the photo indicating that it has been selected. The Delete button should then turn bright red after you make your selections. Tap the delete button and that should remove the photos. This will work for photos in the camera roll or the photo stream.
Photos that you synced to your iPad must be removed by "unsyncing" them using iTunes on your computer. Deselect the albums in the photos tab of iTunes and follow that with a sync to remove them. -
my iPhone 4s keeps showing more space being used for photos than i have -
i have deleted cache folders, unselect and reselect in iTunes I read one post

I downloaded the Keynote app to use on my iPad and because of iCloud, it is trying unsuccessfully to download onto my iPhone. How can I get it to stop attempting to download onto my iPhone? It says waiting and I can't delete it (no X to click). Thx!
Did you try shutting down the device? Resetting? Disabling iCloud? Disabling auto-update?
I'd find the problem that is keeping the download from proceeding and fix that so that the process can finish...sounds like it may be your connection or a server issue, in which case you may need to wait. -

I have photos from my computer saved on my Iphone and I can't delete them from the app photos. How can I delete them?
You'll have to deselect the photos in the photo pane in iTunes on your computer and then sync the phone again, this will delete photos that have not been taken with the phone but synced from the computer.

I updated to 7.0.2 and now some of my music has been removed and I can't find it, and music I deleted years ago has reappeared, and I can't delete it from icloud. My phone will also no longer sync with my computer. My phone has also been freezing regularly since I updated.
The reason, I included the annotation that I'd upgraded my Itunes, (On my Computer) is B/C in many forums - the very first question, *HELPERS* ask, is. "Do you have the latest version of Itunes downloaded on your computer." I wanted to knock out any obvious replies.
Now- "DO YOU have any idea,"... how your UNHELPFUL remarks, do absolutely nothing but hurt others that might not have the EXPERIENCE you have? How do you expect people to know things without asking questions? Whew! RUDE!!

Trying to use a new, larger external hard drive for my Time Machine backup. However, every time I start the backup, it gets started then fails. And, I can't delete the few files that did save on the external. Sort of a catch 22. Any ideas?
Is it a USB hard drive? USB hard drives have the problem of not giving full speed if they are hooked up on the same bus as keyboards and mice. Double check your profiler to make sure that is not a problem. If it is Firewire, make sure there aren't other firewire devices in use at the same time. I recommend not only keeping a Time Machine backup, but also a clone, and if you do use Time Machine, to make sure the Time Machine drive or partition is at least twice the size of the original drive.

I have a iPhone 4 and I can't delete the pictures in the photo albums. Can anyone help??
There are two ways to get rid of them on your iPhone:
1. Get rid of them on your computer, and then sync your iPhone to your computer using iTunes.
2. Plug your iPhone into your computer, open iTunes, click on your iPhone's row on the left, go to the "Photos" tab on the top right, and uncheck "Sync Photos", then click "Apply" in the lower right. -
