How do I remove Apple Mail from my hard drive? Over 10,000 downloaded into my mail and continues to freeze up---  I just want to use my gmail account directly

I go to Gmail to do my email yes, in my browser, but ya know how sometimes you click on a website to email someone and it pulls up apple mail, and then tons of email dump into apple mail and it frequently causes my computer to lock up and have to shut down w/escape.  I thought it would be  better to take it off if I could

  • How can i remove write protection from a Hard drive

    Cant write to HDD on win7 keeps saying "the disk is write protected"  Drive is in a removable IDE caddy, I put the drive in a USB caddy and was able to format the drive, but still get the same error when i try to write to it, I took ownership of the drive and it shows me as the owner. The drive was used in XP previously but i no longer have an XP system since upgrading to Win7. I have removed the partition with Paragon drive copy and re partitioned the drive, renamed the drive but still gives the same error.

    I used succesfully diskpart (on my Windows 7).
    In "Command prompt" (Start -> Run -> cmd) type "diskpart" and press enter.
    (I wrote "cmd" and then on right click menu I clicked on "Run as administrator").
    In diskpart utility (in the same dos window) you have to type "list volume".
    You can see your disk (I see all my 4 partitions on the disk that give me the problem) with a progressive number index.
    Type "select volume #" and press enter, "#" is the number corresponding to your disk/partition.
    Wait the response.
    Then type "attributes disk clear readonly" and wait (I wait 2/3 minutes) for the result.
    It says that operation was completed, and I can write on my partitions (and run checking/scanning on it).
    Hi,
    The hard drive I had problems with had 3 partitions and at least one was write-protected. Just to make sure I used the above "diskpart" commands on each volume and it cleared the write-protected attributes and was able to format the 10Gb partition I used
    just for storing the Pagefile.sys file.
    The write-protect attribute on this WD AV 1Tb h/drive may have been added as it was previously used in my Foxtel IQ box. I used Ghost 11.5.1 to clone my failing WD 1Tb h/drive that had 1376 delays and 50 bad sectors when scanned with HDD Regenerator
    onto the previously used Foxtel IQ h/drive.
    Cheerz ;)
    Thanks again, I was pulling my hair out to find a solution.

  • How do you remove photos permenantly from the hard drive using iPhoto 11?

    Was just wondering if this is possible as removing photos in iphoto leaves them on the hard drive and I don't want to waste disk space.

    btw it's set not to copy photos into the iphoto library
    This creates the problem.
    When you opted to run a Referenced Library you took on the resposibility for managing the files. You get the from the camera to wherever you store them, and if you want to delete them you get them from there to the trash after deleting them from iPhoto.
    iPhoto will not delete files it does not manage.

  • How can I remove bad takes from my hard drive?

    I am relatively new to Logic Express and I am a lame keyboard player so I have to do lots of punch ins to correct my sloppy keyboard playing. It sometimes take 4 or 5 takes to get one good one. Is there a shortcut key that I can use that would erase those bad files off my hard drive? There is just so many of them and they use tons of space.

    You want to clean up after recording. In other words you only want to keep the tracks that are in the arrange window....Not the bad takes...to do this Click on command 9 to open the audio window...from the local menu..select edit..click on select unused files...all the unused takes will be highlighted..from the local audio file menu..click on delete files...this is a permanent operation and will delete all other takes...just make sure you don't need these for any other sessions...

    Hi,disc wiped ,OSX10.9 back on ,how do I restore my data from external hard drive ?Any help welcome .

    There's Setup Assistant and Migration Assistant. The cleanest way to do it is Setup Assistant, but you only get that option once when you fire up a fresh install of OSX. If you're past that, you could reinstall OSX by booting with Command-R, or you could use Migration Assistant.

    if you use iTunes match in order to create space and remove music from your hard drive, does that happen automatically when you subscribe and upload your music or is there another step to remove the music from your hard drive once you've uploaded to iTunes match?

    Welcome to the Apple Community.
    iTunes match won't automatically remove content from your computer, if you want to do that you will need to do it manually yourself.

  • How can I erase deleted items from the hard drive?

    How can I erase deleted files from the hard drive?  Will my machine run faster?

    If you've already deleted the files and emptied the Trash they are already, in effect, erased. At least the disk space they occupied is now available.
    To be able to offer help we need more information about which Mac you have, which OS you are running, how much RAM you have installed, how much hard disk space you have available, etc.
    Go to the Apple Menu>About this Mac - copy and paste the contents of the report here (deleting the serial number of your machine). Once we have that info, I'm sure someone will have some suggestions.

  • How do I copy existing songs from Computer Hard Drive to IPOD 30GB

    How do I copy existing songs from Computer Hard Drive to IPOD 30GB? I am slightly learning disabled and have been unable to figure out how to add and or update. Thnaks

    If the songs are in iTunes and the iPod is set to sync automatically, the songs should already be on the iPod; if they aren't, follow the instructions in this article and post back with any error messages.
    If the iPod is set to sync manually, drag the songs onto the iPod in the iTunes source list.

  • What is the best way to remove personal data from the hard drive in preparation for selling my old Mac?

    I am going to sell or perhaps donate my old Power Mac G5.  Is there an easier, yet comprehensive way to remove my data from the hard-drive?  My best approach is dumping anything I do not want found into the trash.
    I am running Mac OS 10.5.8 on the powermac G5

    For better security than the simple Erase (which does not actually over-write the data blocks, only clears the directory), choose Security Options, and Zero all data, one pass.
    After a Zero all data, the only way to recover the data is to dis-assemble the drive in a clean room and use expensive test gear to recover a little of the data. That is good for all but Military Secrets.
    If you really trust no one under any circumstances, remove the drive and beat it to death with a hammer.

  • How do i put the song from the hard drive back in the new itunes library?

    I had a laptop with music in the itunes library. I put the music from there in a hard drive. I bought a new laptop. How do i put the songs  from the hard drive back into the itunes library on my new laptop.

    A possible cause is a problem with the file places.sqlite that stores the bookmarks and the history.

  • How do I move iTunes content from my hard drive back to the cloud?

    I travel a lot for work and have been using my MBP to watch movies on the plane.  Obviously, this requires me to download them to my hard drive.  With a smaller SSD, though, I'm finding the need to free up some space.  Does anyone know how to remove a movie (or any iTunes content) from my hard drive while making it still available through iCloud streaming?

    If these are iTunes purchase, you don’t move them to the cloud. They are already there.
    Just delete them in iTunes.
    They will still appear in iTunes with a cloud icon.
    Note if you delete a movie, you will not be able to stream it while on the plane...
