How Do I Remove Bootcamp and The Entire Windows Partition?
I have Windows running on my iMac with a partition. I want to remove it in its entirety to take the machine back to a 100% mac platform. Any thoughts?

Easily done!
Run BootCamp Assistant.app and restore to a single partition.
As with all these kinds of operations, if you do not have a complete backup of Leopard, you should not do this, or if you do without a backup and "stuff" happens, just remember my post here.

How do I remove Bootcamp and recover my disk space for my Mac OS X (Yosemite) usage?
I'm using MacBook Pro Retina (Mid 2014 version)
I've allocated 40GB for BootCamp, and 80GB left for my Mac OS X Yosemite for my initial configuration.
I need more space than ever now for my Mac OS and since I don't use my Windows 7 a lot, I thinking to remove my BootCamp partition and regain all the space.
Please advice what's the proper way for me to do that?Back up your data, choose Utilities from the Finder's Go menu, and use the Boot Camp Assistant to return the drive to a single partition setup.

How can I uninstall Bootcamp and Recover the partition for the Mac HD
How can I uninstall Bootcamp and recover the partition for the IMac HD?
Boot into OSX. Go back into the Bootcamp utility in the Utilities folder and re-run it. It will give you the option to remove the Windows partition and make the OSX partition fill the whole drive again. OSX will NOT be lost in the process. No re-installing necessary. Only takes a few minutes or less to complete.

I just bought and used my apple tv. I tried renting a movie but was asked to go to my itunes to verify my info. In the process, I ended up renting the movie 2x and had to accept to be able to get the PLAY button to pop up on the screen. I watched to movie but do not want to be charged 2x for rental.

How do I remove pictures in the photo library on my iphone 5? I need the space to download iOS 7.0.2. I have a MacBook Air and have transferred pictures from my iphone to iphoto.
Photos in the ?Camera Roll can be deleted by tapping on Select, then selecting the photos to be deleted and finally tapping on Trash.
Photos in albums that were copied to the device by syncing with your computer running iTunes are deleted by syncing again. But before clicking on Apply or Sync deselect the no long wanted albums in iTunes. Finally click on Apply. -
I have the Dropbox App on my iPhone 5, for my photos. I don't need all of the photos to be on my phone, and my Dropbox is full. How do I remove photos and, where do I move them to on my computer?
If you have DropBox installed on your computer, you should already have those images in a folder corresponding to the cloud folder structure. Simply copy the from there to any folder you wish them to be in.
And, if you delete them from the dropbox folder, then sync dropbox, they will be removed from all of your devices.
You might want to login to dropbox and have a look at the instructional tours.

or click on Getting Started after loggin in. -
Hello,
How to I increase the space between the top of tabs and the frame of the entire window? It was fine until Firefox updated and since it updated it reduced the space. Now the space is too thin which makes it more difficult to move the open window frame around when I need to grab something from Desktop. Image attached.In the image, see how thin the space is right above the tab? It was much wider before Firefox update so if any know how to make it wider again, please let me know. Thank you

6th gen nano says i have used 3gb of other memory: how do i remove this and how do i find what is in that part of the memory
The operating system for the iPod, album art, databases, etc. all make up the "other stuff". Think of it as all the backstage things required to make your ipod work.

How do you remove items from the assets panel that are duplicated?
How do you remove items from the assets panel that are duplicated?
If you add an item to a slideshow, you'll usually see 2 entries for that image in the assets panel - one represents the thumbnail, and the other represents the larger 'hero' image.
It sounds like you may have added the same image to your slideshow twice. You can select one of the hero images or thumbnail images in your slideshow and use the delete key to remove it. Then the extra 2 entries in the assets panel should disappear. -
