How to delete unwanted background rendered files ?

In the timeline, we naturally made many changes over and over again.
And if everytime we made changes in the timeline, FCPX renders it to ProRes 422, then our ext HDD will be very fast fill up of unwanted rendered files. How do we delete these files ?
My Rendering background has been turn on from day one !
Thanks

From page 401 of the FCP X 10.0.6 Manual:-
Delete render files to free up disk space
Project and clip render files are stored in your Final Cut Events and Final Cut Projects folders. Over time, these files can accumulate and take up disk space. If you want to free up hard disk space, you can either delete unused render files or delete all of the render files for a particular compound clip or Final Cut Pro project.
Delete project render files
1 Select a project in the Project Library.
2 Choose File > Delete Project Render Files.
3 In the window that appears, choose to delete Unused Render Files Only or All Render Files, and click OK.
Delete event render files
1 Select an event in the Event Browser.
2 Choose File > Delete Event Render Files.
3 In the window that appears, choose to delete Unused Render Files Only or All Render Files, and click OK.
Thank you, Ian !

How to delete unwanted microsoft word files...PLEASE!

I would love to know how to delete files in microsoft word that are saved under my documents. The only way I can delete a saved word documsnet is when it has ONLY been saved to the desktop, then I drag it to the trash. When it has been saved to my documents or on the harddrive anywhere, there is no way I can find to delete it. And since I want to clean up my word documents I need to delete the files I no longer use.
Does anyone know how to do this?
I know microsoft word is not an "apple software" but it did come on my mac, and when I had a PC (a compaq) it was easy to delete fiels I no longer used. So I thoguht the best way to get an answer for this would be to contact apple support.
Please someone answer, I have been trying to find this answer for months! Thanks!

Late post for the archives--another fix:
I'm guessing the problem is trying to use File | Open to bring up a window that shows files, and delete from there. This works in Windows, but not on the Mac (true for any program, not just Word).
On the Mac, you have to delete files from within the Finder (the equivalent of Windows Explorer). Go to the desktop and hit apple-N (cmd-N) to bring up a Finder window. Set it to Column View. Now you can browse to any location on your harddrive and drag a file to the trash.

How to delete unwanted timezones from Calendar app on Yosemite?

I upgraded to Yosemite and one of the problems I had with Calendar App had something to do with Time Zone.
I realized that Calendar added California time as default. So now I want to delete the unwanted time zone, but cannot find a way to do so.
How does one remove or uncheck a time zone in iCal (Mountain Lion)?
I found this forum and tried, but as the last person who posted said, it doesn't work on Yosemite.
Does anyone know to delete unwanted timezones from Calendar App on Yosemite?
Thanks.

Thank you for your response.
However, I am not asking about how to change the timezone on Mac. I'm asking about how to delete unwanted timezones on Calendar app.
Here I have 2 Pacific Time's. They are basically the same, but sometimes my computer choses one of the other without my intention. And when it does, it keeps showing (PST) on next to the starting time which I do not want. In order to avoid that, I'd like to delete "Pacific Time (America/Los_Angeles)". From the link you provided, I'm not finding the solution to this. I might be looking at a wrong spot and if so please be patient to guide me through.
If my question still doesn't make sense, please click the link to the solution for the same problem on Mountain Lion in my original question. You might understand my question better from it.
Thank you.

On a 5230 highlight the route you wish to delete, then hit the search bar. The keypad appears, then just press the backward pointing small white arrow on the far right hand side of the screen about half way down and it will then say "Delete selected route?"

How to delete definitively a audio files?
Thank's

If on a track remove the audio, then in the Media Bin select it and under Audio File choose Show File(s) in Finder. Now delete the audio from the Media Bin and trash it also in the Finder, save your project and the audio will be gone for good. If you want to keep the audio in the Finder then you skip trashing in the Finder of course!
Have a nice day!

How to delete unwanted apps from itunes

how to delete unwanted apps from itunes cant figure it out

What do you mean delete from iTunes? You can't do that on an iPad. You can delete apps in iTunes on a computer. If you want to delete an app on the iPad, tap and hold down on the icon until the icon wiggles, then tap the X appears on the icon to delete the app. Tap the home button when finished.
You really need to explain in more detail what you wNt to do. Maybe this will help.

How to delete unwanted pages?

Greetings all:
I'm very new to using FrameMaker, and I seem to be struggling with deleting unwanted pages. I was hoping someone could help me with this problem.
Thanks!

Hi Irene; welcome to the club!
Assuming your file is stand-alone, you probably have the pagination set to double-sided and "make page count odd"... so a trailing left page would always be generated.
If your file(s) are in a book, the pagination of Chapter 1 is actually controlled by how Chapter 2 is set to open, and so on through the book. If Chapter 2 is set to start on a right hand page, Chapter 1 will generate a blank page at the end of the file, if it's required to make Chapter 2's opening page happen correctly. This ripples all through the book. Note that pagination in a book is controlled by the book file -- right click one or more component files to see the pagination properties.
In either case, you can temporarily delete the extra pages by using Special > Delete Page, but it'll pop back up when the file is saved / reopened unless you track down which pagination property is causing it and change that setting.

How can I re-connect rendered files at the other FCP and different drives

Hello all.
Does anyone know how to re-connect rendered files in another work station.
This is feature film and we need to render effects before playback. It seems to take so long time.
We have really unconventional setting. We use 2 FCP stations and separated media drives.
Our resolution is AppleProRes 444 23.97P 1920x1080 which is very high res for just off-line editing.
I was wondering if I can create new project which has just the sequence
and render at the one station. Then copy rendered files to the other FCP station. I tried, but when the FCP asks for "reconnect" they can seem to do it. - we cannot output DVD at my station and the editor wants to keep working till just before the output.
Exporting QT is another way to make DVD, but it takes 7 hrs vs. 1.5 hrs length film and we cannot have time to do it .
If anyone knows the tips, please let me know. Thank you

FWIW, FCP often doesn't reconnect render files very well. It's usually best just the re-render.

How to delete or overwrite .csv file

hi...
i need some help here..can anyone teach me how to delete or overwrite an existing .csv file.?..in my .csv file there will be two columns which is column 1( 8 length) and 2 column ( 4 length).
please...i need the answer asap..really appreacite your help..thanks...

Well, deleting or overwriting a file should not depend on the size of the columns. You just overwrite the file with the new data. What have you tried so far?
If you want to overwrite individual data points, you would read the file, modify the data in memory, and overwrite the file with the changed data. Overwiting individual values directly is only recommended for binary files unless you can guarantee that each value occupies a fixed number of characters and the offset can be calculated from first principles.

How to delete unwanted transfer rules from the pool

Hi experts,
I want to know how to delete the unwanted transfer rules from the pool on the right hand side of the transfer rules. I realized I don't need them. I get a warning icon with them sitting in the pool.

You can't delete it yourself. All you can do is hide it so it doesn't appear on your purchased list, as explained here: iTunes Store: Hiding and unhiding purchases. iTunes store support may be able to do this for you if you contact them by filling out this form: https://ssl.apple.com/emea/support/itunes/contact.html.

How to delete unwanted iphotos? (not edited originals)

How can I delete unwanted photos in iphoto? I don't care about deleting originals that I have been edited, I want to remove trash shots from my computer while working in iPhoto. So is there a way to delete photos from DB, w/o going into the finder. I can take 50 shots in 2 mintues. Until I upload in iPhoto, mess with them, I can't tell good from bad. I don't want to store all forever. Help?

atlantalee
Always remember the golden rule. Don' make any changes to the iPhoto Library Folder - the database - in the finder. Do everything working in iPhoto.
It's hard to tell what's good and what's not until you get them into iPhoto or check in Preview.
Dealing with them in iPhoto is the easiest way to do it . Look at them right after you import. You can select multiple shots by holding down the COMMAND key while clicking on the ones you want to trash. You can also use the shift key to get rid of a bunch all in a row. Click the first to select, then click the last holding down SHIFT - that will select all in a row.
Then go to the Photo drop down menu and delete or trash the photos selected.

How to Delete unwanted Apps for ever?

Sometimes we download 'apps', which may turn out just duds or NOT as good and functional as we expect them to be. Then we decide to delete and though they are deleted from iPad ( 4th Gen) or iPhone, the same remain in the iTunes and show up at the time of synching under App section. The "Remove " option works only for deleting an app available on the device but not from iTunes ( computer) apps section. How can we Delete unwanted Apps for ever?
Sometimes I wonder why Steve infused so mauch control into such mundane issues as deleting undesirable stuff?It irritates to the extent sometimes I feel, whatever is said Windows based OS is much more user friendly and truly functional...
