How to get rid of unwanted folders?

On the iCloud Drive i have several App-folders i don't want. One for Scripteditor, one for Preview, iMovie etc.
I dont´t want them and i don´t need them. A quick look in the library showed only the folders for personal stuff, and the iWork apps. Has anyone an idea how to get rid of them?

How to get rid of the Folders which hold the attachements

Before upgrading to Maverick I had a folder called Mail Attachements where all my attachements went in. When looking for an attachement it was very easy to look for it as I could organise it alphabetically or by date. Now eacht attachement is in a folder named with a combination of Letters and Numbers and I have to open every folder to find my attachment or transfer it into the folder which is so time consuming. Is there a way to get rid of these folders??

How to get rid of old folders from Network window?

I'm not sure if this is a network question or a Finder question ...
In my Network window are a bunch of old folders, left over from a couple of MS Windows machines that I touched at some point but will never meet again. I can't delete them. Their permissions are set to read-only. I tried to give myself delete permissions with chmod but was told it was a read-only file system. So how do I get rid of these old items?
Thanks for the help.
Paloma

I have more information which my be helpful. I think the directories which are created in /Network are in part originated from a list of previous workgroups.
Open Directory Access, authenticate, then select SMB/CIFS and click Configure... . The top menu displays a list of workgroups. What I seem to get is a list of all the workgroups I've ever been connected to and this list largely corresponds with the directories created in /Network. Sadly, you can't delete these workgroups from Directory Access.
More intriguingly, the directories go away when I'm not connected to a network so somewhere in the system there is a list of workgroups stored away. The only problem is where? I heven't been able to determine this yet.
Also, I think workgroups and domains may be interchangeable here.

How to get rid of unwanted brush border

I'm using a freeware 'blood splatter' brush but when I place it down there's an ugly border surrounding it - same thickness as brush stroke. It's not part of the actual brush effect itself though.
How do I get rid of it?

Actually i was doing it wrong - I just dragged the brush out onto the page and this makes the border appear.
However if I use the brush the 'correct' way - by drawing using the pencil tool then with the line still selected pick a bloody splatter brush - the colour of the brush is it's default black and not what I has selected - in this case green.
How do I change the colour of the brush or do some brushes just support a single colour?

How to get rid of unwanted popups

Every time I open a website, there are annoying popups that would show up. Sometimes it would also ask me to allow or trust a certificate, which I am unsure of. I would really want to get rid of them because I am quite concerned that it may be a virus or something. I just wanted any advice whether I can do something about it on my own or do I have to go to the apple store to get further help.
Please help!

Sometimes it would also ask me to allow or trust a certificate, which I am unsure of.
You should never permit the installation of something you are unsure of.
You may have inadvertently installed adware. You do not need to download or install anything to fix it.
For a description of how this may have occurred, how to avoid it in the future, and for Apple's recommended actions read How to install adware. Apple's instructions are linked in the Recovery Procedure near the end of that document. Read and follow them carefully. Pay particular attention to the easily overlooked passages directing you to restart your Mac when required.

Import from iPhoto: how to get rid of unwanted copies and thumbnails?

Hi,
Browsing through my 37000 images - mostly imported from iPhoto, I recogize that a lot of them are (for some strange reason, or error on my part) imported twice.
It typically manifest itself like 2 project files like this:
2003-05-16-21-2
2003-05-16-21-2 (1)
....with a lot of the content in the 2 projects being identical. I also get quite a bit of projects with names ending with .."Thumbs" containing small images.
Is there a way of safely removing identical copies and thumbs without having to traverse all the folders/projects manually?
Best regards,
Kjell Are

How to get rid of Unwanted brush overlay in CS5?

Recently I've had this problem in Photoshop where if (on any color besides black) I lift my pen up the color overlaps.
Here's a screenshot as example.
The star to the left is what happen if I draw without lifting my pen (using one continuous stream of color) and the star to the right is the result I get when drawing normally.
I don't understand why this is happening. Opacity and flow are both at 100%. I checked under Transfer and both the jitters are at 0% as well.
Can someone please help me fix this?

If the opacity is less the 100% every time you add an additional brush on top of a previous stroke the overlap area will become more opaque more saturated.
When you use a single continuous stroke without stopping when you overlap area Photoshop does not increase saturation. This enable you to fill an area with a single color shade. If you have a tablet you can vary the paint opacity laid down by setting the brush transfer to pen pressure or be clicking the opacity icon in the option bar. Adobe paint and brush engine is highly adjustable make that very complex.

HT6196 how do I edit a movie clip to get rid of unwanted parts of a clip

how do I edit a movie clip in thelatest version of I movie to get rid of unwanted parts of a clip

You can split a clip into pieces using Quicktime Player. See:
http://support.apple.com/kb/PH5879?viewlocale=en_US&locale=en_US
for details.
Second question:
I don't know what you want to acheive but yhe only way I can think of to move a precise time into a clip is to select it and trim it - whilst trimming the time amount trimmed is displayed. Stop when you have the right amount then position the playhead there. You can then 'untrim it' and he playhead will be at the desired spot.

How to get rid of the default playlists?

Hello! I'm using an iPhone 4S on iOS 8.3 and I went into iTunes on my desktop computer and removed the default playlists (90's Music, Recently Added, Recently Played, Top 25 Most Played) and for some reason they won't go away on my phone. Before today they weren't on there and must have added themselves after I synced my new music. The playlists are not on iTunes anymore and there is no way to remove them via my iPhone. Does anyone know how to get rid of them???
