Make sure to move all messages you want to keep to Local Folders before deleting an account.
To delete an account:
AppMenu button - Options - Account Settings
In the Account Settings window select the account to be removed in the left pane. Then choose 'Remove Account' from the 'Account Actions' drop-down menu at the bottom.

How do you delete folders within collections in mini bridge?

How do you delete folders within collections in mini bridge?

his chapter on Mini Bridge where he talks about organizing your photos getting rid of some and making a folder or file sorry not certain of the terminology under Collections in mini bridge to acess your "keepers" perse.
Not familiar with this book but if Scott is talking about using mini bridge for sorting images he is way out of line. Mini Bridge (to my opinion next to useless since they screwed it up for CS6 but that is another discussion) should be seen as a shortcut to Bridge itself when working in Photoshop on complex tasks of image or album compilation and prevent you from switching back and forward between the two applications while working on a project.
Unfortunately some people thought that it might be useful to add more functions to it and now users start believing they don't need bridge itself for this.
Please use Bridge itself for sorting etc and also try to get hold of a copy of 'Real World Camera Raw' written by Bruce Fraser and Jeff Schewe. They have an edition for about all CS versions and this book will let you know how to really use the power of Bridge and Adobe Camera Raw

How do I delete folders listed in Time Machine that are no longer good?

I AM TRYING TO DELETE FOLDERS ON MY TIME MACHINE THAT I NO LONGER NEED:
MY TIME MACHINE FOLDER SHOWS AT PRESENT:
DIGI FILES_PE
DIGI FILES-PE-ACDS
DIGI-ACDS
HARD DRIVE
IPHOTO-PHOTO-PREV-PE
PREV-ELEMENTS
WORKING
I WANT TO DELETE:
PREV-ELEMENTS
DIGI FILES_PE
DIGI FILES-PE-ACDS
When I checked the Help INstructions it tell me to Highlight the file and click the Actions menu (Gear icon) from the toolbar.
Select “Delete all backups of <this file>”.
BUT...when I do that the Gear icon only shows "Move to Trash" Not “Delete all backups of <this file>”.
So when I try to move the old folders to the trash it tells me that the operation cannot be done?

See Pondini's TM FAQs for starters.

How to transfer Outlook folders to Thunderbird in bulk?

Have been using Thunderbird to send and receive emails but need to transfer folders from Outlook to T bird folders. Already transferred some individually but takes to long. How to transfer in bulk?

How did you transfer from Outlook to TB? There are a couple of free programs that convert Outlook pst files to eml files, and the latter can be imported to TB with an add-on, or dragged from Explorer into a TB folder directly.

Hi Aristotle222,
Welcome to the Support Communities!
Files and folders are created by the Macintosh OS, not a specific application.
The link below will explain how to create folders and subfolders, and organize your data using Finder.

Can anyone advise on how to recover deleted folders?

Hi
Someone in our home accidently trashed a folder and we are looking for a utility to recover the files (un erase).,
We used DATA RESCUE II but when this program recovers the files it re names them in a numeral sequence which is hard to use when application recall documents by there names., so we like to recover the deleted trashed files in there original folder sequences.
Can anyone advise on what application can recover the files erased in the trash and restore them in the state as they where with original names and all?

You say that when you delete a file and then empty the trash it is wiped off the planet, I recently flew in to a rage that I couldn't down load a different version of quick time, because a newer version was already installed, so I started ditching all the quicktime files spotlight revealed for me
But getting the same notification, as I was emptying the trash, all of the sudden my desk top, Finder ,desktop hard drive icon disappeared and half my applications stopped working , it was System/Library/Frameworks/Quicktime. framework/Versions/A/Quick time Referenced from:/Applications iPhoto. App/content blah blah blah for each non working application, and right away I knew I was up ***** creek,
I am able to view all that I used to see in the finder by either opening a new email and adding an attachment and looking through my computer while I am browsing , Omni disk sweep, shows that some of these system files are still in the trash, but I cant access the trash except to delete them through disk sweep,
Are these the ******* that are keeping a different Quicktime version from opening , My thought was to retrieve them from the trash using a fire wire connection to my iMac and trying to put them back, other wise ill back up using target disk mode, and just do the **** archive and install, if not erase and install

In photoshop elements 12 I try to delete a folder but the delete option is grayed out. how can I delete a folder from my catalogue?

how can I delete folders from photoshop elements 12. the option to delete is grayed out an I don't know what the alternative options are

Got it fixed! The Folder was set to Open With Terminal!
Maybe when you moved it over from your other system, the Open With got changed? To change this, in your Finder, select the iPhoto library from your User/Pictures folder and do a Get Info on it Command+I.
Then change the Open With to iPhoto application!
Then from the Finder, double click the iPhoto Folder and it will be opened with iPhoto! WALLA it worked!

In my Thunderbird I have 2 inboxes and deleted folders, 1 set in local folders 1 set above. How do I get back to only having one inbox and one deleted folders.

I have one account in my Thunderbird mail. Some days ago I discovered I had two inboxes and two deleted folders. One set appears in the list at the lefthandside above local folders and the other set is under local folders. My outbox also appears under local folders.
I have deleted or moved all the mail entris in the inbox which appears under local folders.
How do I delete the superfluous inbox and deleted folders? How do I move the outbox so it appears above the local folders in the list? Many thanks for your help.

Surely as I only have one account, I should only have one inbox. How does my POP mail decide into which inbox to put my incoming mail? The two inbox icons have the downward pointing arrow. One inbox is the first entry in the list (below my email address) and the second is the first entry below local folders.

How can I recover deleted folders - also - question about editing/deleting msf files

Context: My wife accidentally deleted a series of folders from Thunderbird v.24.6.0
She says that the system warned her that there was "not enough space" or something like that (she doesn't remember clearly) and asked her if she wanted to "delete them permanently" (or something like that), but she pressed "yes" anyway. She then freaked out, and when I came in to see what she was screaming and crying about, she told me the above story.
SO, after spending the last 2-3 hours reading through help articles and finding my local Mail file/structure, learning about Mork and msf and compacting and X-Mozilla-Status codes, downloading Notepad++ and poking around through some of the files to familiarize myself with their format ... here I am trying to learn how to restore the folders.
Here is where I am at so far:
1. When I went to the Activity Manager, it shows the folders that were deleted, one below the others in a list with the title "Deleted folder foldername" with a dozen different folder names.
2. When I look for the one of the folders that was deleted in the Mail/path/foldername" - I open it (the one without the file extension) in notepad++ and it is empty. There only exists line 1 and there is no text in it (vs. the other folders I check that have the emails in standard From_line format.
This concerns me greatly and leaves me stuck. Did TB actually delete and compact the folder? Are they really deleted, not just X-Mozilla-Status deleted?
3. I don't understand how to restore a folder. I know I can go into a folder and change the X-Mozilla-Status for individual messages - but how to I restore the entire folder? I don't understand how the msf related to the deleted files/folders. It seems like there would be an entry/code somewhere that tells TB - "don't read this entire folder" that I could reverse/edit. I can't figure it out on my own.
4. I understand that, if I delete the foldername.msf file, TB will compact the foldername file. I think I should NOT do this because it will permanently delete the files I want to restore - right?
Any help would be appreciated. I have an unhappy wife. Thank you.

The message she garbled I would assume is that the deletions were to large and that the deleted folder would be bypassed. So all the normal recovery from the trash is simply not possible. There is no Thunderbird magic available unfortunately. So your reduced to using operating system undelete software. I have no idea how that will go, but I just downloaded this http://ntfsundelete.com/download and it does appears to do the job, even if the close text is so pale as to be hard to see.

How can I delete a duplicate drive in the folders area?

Not sure how I ended up with a shared network drive duplicated under the folders area of Lightroom 3.6. Maybe it was a user error but now my network drive where I have 15,000 pictures appears twice in the folder area and it is constantly updating (since there are quite a few pictures).
How can I delete the duplicated drive? I have "removed" all the folders under the duplicated drive (and made it disappear) but the drive keeps coming back as the synchronization process will add all the folders that exist on that drive.
The two drives with "Volume_1" in the name are actually one shared network drive (I only have one).
I actually removed my network drive mapping (N:) to fix the problem but that did not even work; LR still found a duplicate name for the same network drive and started to synchronize (again). Help!!

I found pretty good super users and a solution here:

I am moving all my iphoto pictures to seperate folders outside of iphoto. I have found iphoto slighlty cumbersome. After I move all pictures from iphoto to a separate file how can I delete all the iphoto photos without deleting the ones in the file?

I am moving all of my iphoto pictures into seperate folders becuase iphoto is great, but a bit cumbersome when I need to transfer all the pictures to a external drive.
1) After I move all pictures, how can I delete the iphoto pictures without destroying the ones I have in files
2) how can I ensure that I have sucessfully captures all the iphoto files so when I delelte from iphoto I have not forgotten any
3) is there a way to determine what duplicate pictures I have?
Thanks!

If you Control click on the iPhoto Library, you'll see a list of folders - one named "Masters". Inside of this folder are all of your original, high-res photos. You can copy them to other folders if you like.
You can't delete iPhoto pics without deleting the ones in the iPhoto Library.
You can copy all of your Masters pics out of the Library, ensuring that you won't forget any.
I don't know of anyway to determine if there are duplicate photos - most (if not all) have a unique name assigned.
Good luck,
Clinton
