How to delete Yosemite and return to mavericks

On my Mac Pro desktop I have downloaded the upgrade to Yosemite from Mavericks, now I have no mail and hundreds of pounds worth of software that won't work with this operating system, all my reading lists and links are gone from safari. How do I put it back to how it was?

It'd be easier to remove the crap that is incompatible and causing the problems.
If you want to go back to your previous OS, boot into Recovery and Erase the drive. Then, restore from your backup.

    My two old white MacBooks run perfect with Snow leopard, but my 2011 17" i7 Macbook Pro is a dead slug with yosimite installed.
    Tried the start with C held down, also with option held down.  All it does is beeps at me three times, then again three times..... 
    I want to remove yosimite and install Snow leopard from dvd as yosimite runs worse than a Windows OS.
    Can it be done, what do I need to do please?
    Examples of faults,  even with a 1tb solid state drive and 16 gig of ram, it is incredibly slow.  Took four hours to install Logic 8 last night, I still have to reinstall logic 9 upgrade.   On the White MacBooks I got both 8 and 9 installed in under an hour and a half all up.
    Beeping on startup means failed RAM.
    Slowness is usually caused by incompatible third-party system modifications.

  • How to delete Analysis and Analysis Project in SDA ?

    Hii
    Please tell me how to delete Analysis and Analysis project in SDA .??

    Hi Rahul,
    in most cases the Identifying Check Item might be used.
    The rating of each Check Item will be determined by the assigned Check Steps. The rating of an Informative Check Item does not contribute to the rating of the Analysis Structure (e.g. a business process step etc.), while the rating of an Identifying Check Item does.
    The purpose of such behaviour can be explained with the usage in different Analyses.
    In the Analysis Project one will assign Check Steps to an Informative Check Item in cases where you want to get processed additional Check Steps, that might be not yet validated in that combination and/or that might cause higher Analysis runtimes.
    During the creation of an Analysis one can control to include these Informative Check Items for the current Analysis. With the results of the Informative Check Items one might refine the Analysis Project, which will be used for the next Analysis created.
    The data for workload Check Steps are coming from the workload statistics in the managed system and the values displayed are dialog steps performed in the period(month) selected.
    I hope that the information given is helpful somehow.
    Best regards,

  • Our daughter figured out on her own how to delete songs and apps from her IPAD2. Her parents would like to know how to delete such files and then how to prevent our daughter from doing it.

    Our daughter figured out on her own how to delete songs and apps from her IPAD2. Drives us crazy since we continually have to reload these files. Her parents would like to know
    1. how she did it (delete files) and
    2. how to prevent her from deleting files in the future.

  • How to delete documents and data off of iphone 4s

    Im trying to free up some room on my phone. I got rid of some apps and movies and did what i can but when i plug my phone in there is more Documents & data then i have as apps and music. i just want to get ride of some documents that are saved in my phone but  dont now hot to delete them.

    Document & Data on iPhone is junks files including browser history, cookies, logs, caches of photos and videos, database files stored by your apps. You’ll notice that some apps while being very small themselves have accumulated a lot of data. An example of this is shown in the image below, you see that the Facebook app is 109 MB whereas the Documents & Data stored is 1.2 GB. This 1.2 GB is what goes into your “Other” data.
    These apps on iPhone don’t provide a way to delete Documents and Data, uninstalling and reinstalling the app is not the best option here. With the help of CleanMyPhone or PhoneClean you can delete the documents and data on iPhone without deleting the app itself.

  • How to delete photos and videos from iphone after transferring them to iCould?

    iPhone 4S
    iOS- 8.1.1
    After transferring photos and videos from my iphone to icloud, how to delete photos and videos from my iPhone 4S 

    Thanks to both of you for your replies.
    For some reason, the Camera & Scanner Wizard has started to detect the phone now. Maybe it will stop again in the future, but for now it's OK.
    I do have iTunes installed, and the iPhone's still not appearing in Windows Explorer. I might reinstall if the problem recurs.
    Yep, it's an official Apple cable, but it's a bit old. I got it with my iPod a few years back. Maybe i should start using that as the charger cable, and the new cable i got with my iPhone for syncing?
    Thanks again for your replies.

    Can you pinpoint what 'diagnostic and usage data' you are referring to?  More details would be helpful including the model MBP you are using and the OSX.
    Ciao.

    You would have to restore the iPad and set it up as new. The data would eventually come back as you use the iPad so you may as well not worry about it. It uses very little space on the iPad.

  • Remove latest macbook update "yosemite" and return back to "maverick"

    Hi,
    I have just updated my macbook pro to the new software "Yosemite", now my drawing program, AutoCAD does not open...
    I really need this program for work... Is there anyway i can remove this update and return back to my original system, (maverick) i think it was...

    If you have a complete backup or clone of your Mac before you installed Yosemite, you can erase the Mac and restore the backup.

  • My apple and itunes id are synched but my icloud is an old apple id and I can't figure out how to delete it and change to current Apple Id. i tried to delete it but I have to have the oassword and the knes I know of are not working. Thanks for any he

    I have an iPad 2 with most recent update 8.1.3. I have been experiencing connection problems, wifi dropping all the time. I get the prompts to enter passwords for iCloud and i Tunes all the time. I finally synched my Apple ID with my iTunes ID but the iCloud is still connected to an old email. I cannot figure out how to delete it as iCloud is not accepting the password I am using. I go round and round with changing passwords, etc. What am I doing wrong? How can I sync everything?

    Hi, Abril_Perez17.
    This may be related to a new feature embedded in iOS7 that shows all purchased music by default.  Go to Settings > Music, then turn off Show All Music.  See if the issue ceases once the feature has been disabled.  This information is located on page 63 of the user guide below.

  • Firefox seems to be prompting me w/ potential email address when i have to put in one for a user name, i don't know how to delete those and stop it...thanks for the help

    Every time a box pops up in any kind of site where I have to fill in a user name or password, Firefox tries to prompt me w/ old email address and emails. I don't want that to happen and don't want those email shown...how do I delete those and keep that from happening?

    Hi Irene,
    You should always pay attention when installing software because often, a software installer includes optional installs, such as this adware. Be very careful what you agree to install.<br>
    Adware gets on your computer after you have installed a freeware software (video recording/streaming, download-managers or PDF creators) that had bundled into their installation this browser hijacker.
    You can use the below steps to revert back to adware-less Firefox.
    1) <u>Reset Prefs</u>
    *Navigate to '''about:config''' in your Address Bar
    *Press the "I'll be careful, I promise!" button to proceed
    *Search for <b>trovi</b> and reset all prefs that pull up by right clicking > Reset
    2) Remove any programs that you don't recognize or remember installing from your Control Panel (Start > Control Panel > Uninstall a Program)
    3) Remove any extensions that you don't recognize or remember installing from Firefox.
    *<b>Firefox 29 and above:</b>(Press the menu button ([[Image:new fx menu]] > Add-ons > Extensions)
    *<b>Firefox 28 and below:</b>[[Image:Firefox Button]]> Add-ons > Extensions)
    4) Download ADW Cleaner to wipe out any remnants of the adware.

  • How to delete CS and ID objects

    Hi
    How to delete configuration scenario including all objects in ID so that it should not come back if I do reject changes in ID change List
    Thanks,
    srini

    Srinivas,
    You can delete the individual objects under the configuration scenario and then delete the configuration scenario. If you think that you may use some of the objects in future then you can just remove it from the scenario. after deletion , go to activation tab and activate it , this would complete the deletion procedure. Reject chnages would bring back the deleted stuff back to scenario so don't use that.
    Hope this helps
    Thanks and Regards

  • How to delete paragraph marks (returns) without affecting spacing, like at the top of the next page

    if you have a large document and you add two returns at the end of every major section or group but one of the two returns goes to next page, how do you keep that return so it doesn't mess up spacing if something is added earlier in document but get rid
    of it so the top of the page is the same as the other pages? I was wondering if there was something like a hidden return that would hide the paragraph at the top of the page but if more information was added before it, it would act like a regular return. Hope
    this makes sense.
    Also do you know what the paragraph maker with a dotted box around it is? I was trying to solve the above problem by trying different keys with the return key, e.g. control + return gives you a page break, shift + return gives you a soft return,
    control + alt + return gives you this funky paragraph symbol that seems to erase lines in front of it at least it did when I printed out a page using them.

    Thank you! I've never used Styles but have used the formatting. I just didn't want to have to go to the bottom of every page and change the paragraph formatting but format painter helped a lot. Thanks again.
    You could also use a heading style for the start of your next major block of text which is formatted to have a page break before. Styles are at the heart of Word formatting. Take the time to learn about them to save a lot of time and hair pulling.
    Read the
    link that Stefan gave you. If you want more, see
    Understanding Styles in Microsoft Word.

  • Delete in xsql:dml vs xsql:delete-request and returned rows attribute

    There is a difference in the number of rows returned between using a delete in xsql:dml vs xsql:delete-request. If I issue a delete via xsql:dml and the row I wish to delete is not in the table, then I get a result with rows equal to 0 as expected. However if I issue a delete via xsql:delete-request and the row I wish to delete is again not in the table, then I get a result with rows equal to 1.
    It appears that the value of rows in the response to xsql:delete-request is the number of rows to be processed, ie the number of rows in the posted document, whereas the value of rows in the response to xsql:dml is the number of rows processed in the database.
    I'd expect that the result that we want is the number of rows processed in the database. Thus xsql:delete-request should use the rows attribute in the response to reflect the number of rows processed in the database and thus be consistent with xsql:dml, and possibly use another attribute to reflect the number of rows to be processed.
    The same problem occurs with an update in xsql:dml vs xsql:update-request.
    http://aetius/xsql/demo/dmldelete.xsql?cxn=demo&bind=ename&ename=COMPAQ&sql=delete+from+EMP+where+ENAME+%3d+?
    result is
    <xsql-status action="xsql:dml" rows="0"/>
    where dmldelete.xsql is
    <xsql:dml
    null-indicator="yes"
    connection="{@cxn}"
    bind-params="{@bind}"
    xmlns:xsql="urn:oracle-xsql">
    {@sql}
    </xsql:dml>
    http://aetius/xsql/demo/reqdelete.xsql?cxn=demo&table=EMP&key=ENAME
    where posted document is
    <ROWSET><ROW><ENAME>COMPAQ</ENAME></ROW></ROWSET>
    result
    <xsql-status action="xsql:delete-request" rows="1"/>
    where reqdelete.xsql is
    <xsql:delete-request
    connection="{@cxn}"
    key-columns="{@key}"
    table="{@table}"
    xmlns:xsql="urn:oracle-xsql">
    </xsql:delete-request>
    Steve.

    If you post as an HTML parameter, then you can directly reference the parameter value as either a lexical parameter:
    <xsql:dml>
    insert into foo(xml_column) values ('{@paramname}')
    </xsql:dml>
    or as a bind parameter:
    <xsql:dml bind-params="paramname">
    insert into foo(xml_column) values (?)
    </xsql:dml>
    I'd recommend the latter since it's more robust to the presence of quotes in the XML that's being posted.
    If you post the XML HTTP body, then you'd have to write a custom action handler that called the getPageRequest().getPostedDocument() to get hold of the posted XML Document.
