How to Find Out What is Eating up my HD space
Help! I have a MacBook that is just a little over a year old and it is almost at capacity. When I bought the thing I wasn't doing much with photo editing and now I am doing a lot. My 80G HD is full and I can't figure out what is eating up my space. Is there an easy way to see what is hogging all of the space on my HD? I have 14G in music, another 12-13 in photos- those I can identify. I just can't tell what else is eating up my space. I need to purge stuff but am just not sure where to start. I have an EHD that I can move stuff to but I want to get rid of whatever I don't need.
Is there a way to create a list in order by file size so I can see where all my space is going?
Thanks in advance for your advice.
Hi JennKRE,
you can use application called what size to see what inside your macbook:

you can use monolingual to get rid language you don't use:
http://monolingual.sourceforge.net/
use appdelete to delete application you no longer use:

Use Onyx to delete cache files, repair permission and optimize your HD:

Good Luck.

How do i find out what is taking up the most space on my phone?
I have the Iphone 4s and am having trouble syncing. It keeps telling me i have gone over the space limit. Is there a way to find out what is thaking up the most space? there used to be a bar on the bottom of the screen that told you how much space audio took, pictures, extra space was avalible, etc. but i dont see anything like that now.
Plug your device to your computer and open iTunes. There click on your device and it appears at the bottom how much space is each group of items usin (video, audio, music, photos, others...).
Hope that helps. -

Oracle version 8.1.7Assuming that [auditing was enabled|http://download.oracle.com/docs/cd/B19306_01/server.102/b14220/security.htm#sthref2916], the command
AUDIT CONNECT WHENEVER NOT SUCCESSFULThat will write audit records when there is an unsuccessful login. Depending on how you've configured auditing, those records will either be written to the SYS.AUD$ table, in which case you can query them through a few different views, or to a file on the operating system that you can grep.

"Web'n'Walk III" Huawei dongle, how to find out what Huawei model it is?
I just bought this "web 'n' walk III" UMTS Modem (USB) made by Huawei. I want to instal it but do not know if the enclosed software is out of date (MobileConnectDriver(2.9.2)) and works under SL. Does anybody know how I find out what type of Huawei dangle it is so I can find the correct software?
any tips as to how to use this smoothly as the stick is to SIM locked and I will use it with a SIM from an other provider (Stick is branded by T-Mobile).I worked out the model number, it is 'hidden' in small print on the back, in a larger number.

How to find out what is the lock key for the computer
How to find out what is the lock key for the computer?
You don't.
If you forgot or lost the password, all you can practically do is reset it.
The manner in which you do so depends on what version of OS X you are running. The older versions utilize the reset password utility on your recovery/re-installation disk/drive.
On Lion, you use the following technique to reset the Administrators password:
Boot to your Lion Recovery Partition, by holding down the Option key while starting, and then selecting the Recovery HD as the boot choice.
Once booted, at the top of the screen is a menu ..., select Utilities / Terminal from the menu bar.
In the Terminal window, type “resetpassword” (without the quotes) and press return. A “Reset Password” window will open. Select your boot volume (your SSD drive) if it is not already selected. Select your administrators username from the menu labeled “Select the user account” if it is not already selected. Follow the prompts to reset the password. Restart the computer from the apple menu. -

How to find out what Oracle version?
Hi,
Could anyone tell me how to find out what Oracle version is on your AIX/Unix machine? It looks like Oracle Installer doesn't use the native OS installation(installp,pkgadd) process, so I can't use lslpp/pkginfo to find out what filesets are installed.
Thanks
HQ.Hi!
As far ar Oracle version is concerned, you can find it at the database level after connecting to the database
select * from v$version;
i am not sure if there is someway to find at the o/s level.
Good luck
