How to remove old stuff

I do have some misbehaviors on my Macs user accounts. I thought about instaling a new clean system and a reformatting the harddisc before, but when I like to import the user accounts, I will get all old stuff from the previous installation back to my Mac, which seems to make the trouble.
Is there anywhere a tutorial what I have to delete and were, in case of making a user account back to what is, if a new account is created?

All folders are empty. A find found this stuff in my home library folder:
Folders:
~/Library/Caches/Adobe/Fonts
~/Library/Application Support/Adobe/Fonts
~/Library/Application Support/…/Indesign/…/CompositeFont
~/Library/FontCollections

How to remove old owner

How to remove old owners name/apple Id out of my Iphone, because i cant upgrade ani Apps, because THE name/account of THE old owner is coming up olthe time, after THE upgrade to Io7
I own à legal Iphone-4/16mb with à legal Apple Id.

Only the old owner can remove their ID. This is Activation Lock, an antitheft protection system. Unless the previous owner releases the phone it cannot be used by anyone other than that owner. See: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5661 for what the owner of an iPhone should do before selling or otherwise disposing of the phone.
For more information on Activation Lock see: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5818

Remove old stuff not solved, so asking this

I had a post some days before were some guys tried to help me in removing old stuff which let Fontbook.app crash on start at one user account.
I may try in case this trouble is still not resolved, removiing all fonts from my system and reinstall them from the system dvd as they would be installed by installing a fresh system. Well, since the user libraries do not have any fonts installed, the /Library/Fonts could simply be emptied by me, what do I have to consider deleting the system fonts from /System/Library/Fonts amd it this possible? Will I be able to install all fonts from the system dvd?

Cool, looks kinda like the new Matrix-like effect!
In all seriousness. I'm not sure if this is going to help, but I got problems like this when I used plasma with OpenGL in 4.3.3. When I switched to it, I had the icon artifacts like you have. Did you switch plasma to use OpenGL, or possible, just possibly, 4.3.4 uses OpenGL by default and you got the bug still????? Possibly you could try to switch back to raster and see if the problem gets fixed:
kquitapp plasma-desktop
plasma-desktop -graphicssystem raster

That depends entirely on what "old stuff" your old provider installed on your system. It's common for there to be nothing of the sort. If you identify your old ISP, someone who has experience with that ISP may be able to offer advice.

How to remove old audio/video

I have recently moved most of my photos and videos to an eternal hard drive but I am not sure how to remove everything from my HD. I deleted everything out of Iphoto and deleted the trash but if I do a search for video it still shows videos in Iphoto. Also I am not sure how to remove all of the old video from Imovie without doing any damage.

I deleted all of my pictures/videos from Iphoto, emptied the Iphoto trash, and got 30 gigs of storage back. Now it was showing an empty library but if I searched for all movies there were a ton left in Thumbnails, originals, etc. Hidden folders in the Iphoto Library. So even though I couldn't see any photos left in Iphoto I decided to delete the enitre Library and start over. I dragged the library to the trash and I got another 30 gigs of storage back! All for hidden backups of files that I thought I had deleted.

How to remove old signed in devices from iCloud.

How does one remove old signed apple devices from iCloud? I erased devices, deleted backups, but they still show up.

Hello Kalyan
I raised an OSS note for this and below is the reply from SAP. Thanks for your support.
Thank you for your query.
To delete the old class their are 2 options available to you .
1 )
To delete the old class you have to remove the assignments of where
it is used . Please access the old class in CL03 and then the menu
path "Environment - Where used list"
Once all assignments are removed you should be able to delete the class
2)
You could use a change number created in transaction CC01 to delete
the class from the classification view.
Please review note 166530 which explains about the deletion of
classification data.
Please refer to the online documentation at help.sap.com and the
Classification section where it states :
Once you have used engineering change management to process
characteristics, characteristics of a class, or classifications, you
must use engineering change management for all further changes.
I hope the information is of help , please test carefully on a Non
Productive system first

How to Remove old updates from Software Update service

Running a 10.10.2 OS X Server and have a lot of old Update files I need to get rid of. I have followed instructions on...
Mac OS X Server 10.4 or later: Removing old updates from Software Update Server
...but getting this error...
No such file or directory
...when typing...
grep swupd /etc/swupd/com.apple.server.swupdate.plist > ~/Desktop/update_list.txt
Any help would be appreciated, thanks.

I don't use Apple's own SUS software I use Reposado instead, however it is my understanding that the locations of files used by Apple's SUS software have been moved with Yosemite/Server 4.x.
Try looking in the following locations
/Library/Server/Software Update/Config/
/Library/Server/Software Update/Data/
/private/var/db/swupd/

How to remove old iWeb pages off internet which are no longer in iWeb program?

This is my current looking website - www.pholife.co.uk
which goes to - 'www.pholife.co.uk/pholife/Start.html'
when googling 'pholife tom bird' an older website under the same domain name appears in the search list before the pholife/start.html page
The old website and various pages -
http://www.pholife.co.uk/pholife/pholife/Home.html
this website ^^^ was the same project as the professional looking one which i changed 6 months ago. If people google me, they will be led to a page which isnt the page I wish for them to see as it is ranked higher in the google search as it is older.
Some how along the line I removed the second 'pholife' from the URL so my new looking website has a different path I suppose.
How do i remove the 'www.pholife.co.uk/pholife/pholife/home.html' website all together, i have opened the package contents of iweb in application support but not sure where to start.
Lastly how do i remove the pholife/start so when people go to my website the URL is simply 'www.pholife.co.uk' in the URL bar, would it involve a homemade nav bar?
Thanks in advance!

Connect to your server and remove the files and folders you do not want there.
In time Google will forget about them.
If that's too much, simply rename the folder of your old site and never mention it to anyone.

How to remove old Ipod from Itunes?

Hi.
Have bought a new Ipod Classic 80g as wanted more space.
Used to have an old ipod mini 4g.
How do I remove the association of the mini from itunes?
Now when I buy music from istore it still thinks it is for the mini not my new classic so I have to enter my apple id again to authorise songs for the classic. It then says I have used up two of the 5 devices I'm allowed. (1 for Classic and 1 for Mini)
So, how do I tell iTunes I no longer want to sync with the old mini?
thanks.
Ed

Given some xml and an xsd, how to remove extra stuff in the xml.

The problem is as I validate or parse the SAXParseException it produce only gives me the localName. Is there a way I can keep track of something detail like the XPath as I validate or parse??? Thank for the help in advanced

forgot to mention. Basically, I want to try to validate and find all the errors in the an old xml, then be able to fix the errors to end up having an valid xml file.

How to remove old backup files from time machine? Lion OSx

Hi everyone,
I am just wondering how to efficiently and safely remove the old backup files from time machine? I tried once with command, but it damaged my extra-disk... Does Lion OSx have fixed that?
Many thanks
Hong

Blue-
Time Machine will automatically delete back-ups as the need for space arises. If you want to delete a certain file (application, document, whatever) and have it gone for good you can do that as well.
The best place on the web for information about Time Machine is...
