How to remove unwanted Document History?

I'm creating an eBook in InDesign, saving to .pdf and adding multi-media content in Acrobat Pro 9. The final .pdf file has a great deal of extraneous information stored in its Metadata, including a complete list of information on every single instance of the 'Saves' of the original document back in InDesign, going right back to the beginning. In a large document I have that has been built slowly over a long period, this list is now over 400 items long, and I can't find a way to delete it.
To find it, open that kind of .pdf in Acrobat, and look under the: File / Properties / (Description Tab) / (Additional Metadata button)
From the list in the left menu, select 'Advanced'
Open the disclosure triangle marked SMP Media Management Properties
Open the disclosure triangle marked xmpMM:History (seq container)
You then come across a list of items, each one representing a single instance of the original document being saved back in InDesign.
There is a 'Delete' button nearby, but no what what I select, I can't seem to make any of this stuff get deleted.
All this extra data must be bulking up the file, and I'm trying to keep the file size down. How can I get rid of this stuff? (Doing a 'Save as ...' back in the original InDesign file doesn't help either, as you would expect.

Wait a minute! I just tried that ... clicking only one checkbox - under 'Discard User Data' selecting 'Discard Private Data of Other Applications'. And the file size dropped from 20.5Mb to 3.5Mb! And with no visible change in functionality! Was there likely to have been that much crap in there? I'll have to explore this ...
Thanks for the tip!

How to remove unwanted plugins (and no I don't want to read any unrelated articles that never answer your question)?

I want to clear out the unwanted plugins in Fire Fox . One plugin even has a warning about not using it (Java Deployment Toolkit). But every time I ask "how to remove a plugin?" , I am redirected to an article that doesn't answer the question. And then the circular argument begins again without ever actually answering the question.
IS IT NECESSARY TO UNINSTALL FIREFOX TO REMOVE A PLUGIN??????

Plugins like ex Flash and Java etc are not installed in Firefox like Extensions and Themes are. They are on system and Firefox has found and is making use of them. This is why you can only activate/deactivate which tells Firefox to make use of that Plugin on system or not.

How to remove unwanted rounding

I created a custom KF (ZBILL_QTY) with the fix unit = Dozen. with 0.000 decimal places in the properties of KF
And write a routine to get divide 0BILL_QTY (Base UOM = 'PC') by 12 and save into the ZBILL_QTY.
The problem is the figure display in the report always round up which I don't want it
i.e 0BILL_QTY = 1 PC I expected ZBILL_QTY = 0.0833 DZ but the it display 1 rather.
I check the record in the cube and it display 0.0833 correctly and i also set the number of decimal places to 0.0000 in the query.
Please advise how can i remove unwanted rounding ?

hi ,
Although that should work fine but if not can u try:
1.Is scaling factor for that KF is on or not,i mean test different setting with scaling factor ,Mostly it should be "not defiened"
2.A silly try ,create a formula and use this key figure in that and don't change any setting of decimals,and see uo to what place decimals it gives in report.
Thanks

How to remove Draft Documents using DIAPI?

DIAPI help says that Remove Method is not supported because "SAP Business One does not allow to remove a document object from the database".
However, in SBO UI, you can remove Draft Documents. Is there another way or workaround in DI API for deleting Draft Documents?
Juha

Juha, why do you think so?
The following snippet shows you how to kill Purchace-draft:
SAPbobsCOM.Documents oDraft;
oDraft = (SAPbobsCOM.Documents)pCmp.GetBusinessObject(SAPbobsCOM.BoObjectTypes.oDrafts);
oDraft.DocObjectCode = SAPbobsCOM.BoObjectTypes.oPurchaseInvoices;
oDraft.GetByKey(<DraftDocEntry>);
resCmpTo = oDraft.Remove();
if (resCmpTo != 0)
pCmp.GetLastError(out errNum, out errStr);
MessageBox.Show("oDraft.Remove(): " + errNum.ToString() + "n" + errStr);

I want to purchase Apature, but In the advertising blurb I dont see how to remove unwanted objects from a photo. I know it can be done in Adobe Elements, but I would rather Apature.

I want to purchase Apature, but in the advertising blurb I dont see hoe to remove unwanted oblectsfrom a photo. I know it can be done in Adobe but I would rather have Apature.

What DiploStrat said.
To expand a little bit: Aperture allows you to assign a graphics program (such as PSE) as an "external editor". In general, you use Aperture to organize your photos, to develop them (make them as good as possible for each use), and to publish them (create share-able files). Your external editor is used when you want to create a new graphics file, which is what happens in all "destructive pixel editing".
Aperture provides tools to remove sensor spots from skies (and like operations), but for removing people and billboards you'll want a proper compositor, a/k/a a graphics program.

How to Remove Unwanted HTML Text Appearing in Compiled Help Topics

I am working on a RoboHelp HTML project in version 7.03.001. Recently, when checking files into source control, the program we use informed me that two of my topics (htm files) and the index file (.hhk) were "conflicted."
When I examine the compiled topics, I see a string of HTML code at the very top of the topics, above the topic titles. Here is an example:
When I look at the HTML view, for the same topic, this is what I see:
Temporarily removing this line of code did not resolve the issue. The unwanted text was still displayed after compiling.
Another thing to mention is that several strange files also appeared in various project folders--files associated with the suspect topics and index:
I don't know what these files are for or if they can be deleted. In addition, I generally don't do much work in the HTML code, so I was wondering if anyone might know what would cause this and also how it can be fixed.
Thanks for your help!

Those additional files look like revisions of the files that have the problem. If you open up the files that have a suffix of .mine, .r64214 and .r65414 do these have the same issue? if sounds like you have a source control file version issue here but it is hard to tell without some more detail. Hope this gives you some clues for things to look at but do come back if you need further help.

How to remove unwanted audio using audio effects?

The audio effects in question: http://help.adobe.com/en_US/premierepro/cs/using/WS1c9bc5c2e465a58a91cf0b1038518aef7-7d80a .html
I've been meaning to learn how to do this for a while so I thought I'd get started.
I want to learn how to clean up my audio. I don't have very professional audio gear, I'm using a Rode videomic pro on a canon 60D so the quality isn't the best but it's ok for now. There is a lot I want to learn but right now there are 2 things on my mind:
1. I have a deadcat wind muff on my rode but still when the wind hits it I get this unwanted wind sound on my soundtrack. I know there has to be a way to remove or reduce this somehow using the audio effects.
2. Slight white noise over my audio. I know this is a result of recording directly from my camera but there has to be a way to reduce the white noise in order to get clearer audio. I've seen people recording right out of their camera and they have way better results than me.

I know there has to be a way to remove [wind noise]
There is. It's called ADR.
there has to be a way to reduce the white noise
There is. Better equipment.
Sorry but, I think you may be expecting to much of your post production tools.

How to remove unwanted contacts in the Messages app

im having a problem with the messages application. everytime i want to start a new chat and look for a certain name my old Icloud contacts pop up. i always click the and press on "remove ___ from chat" but it only works for like 5 mins then they pop up again. its really annoying because i always send pictures to my phone using the Share/Messages and i always think i could end up sharing it to one of those unwanted contacts. ive done everything possible to remove them i even made a new icloud account but its no use. not even my phone has those contacts anymore i dont know why its doing that. any suggestions?

Hi Tidbits,
I ended up going to Best Buy, where I got my LG G3 Verizon phone. The Tech tried everything to correct the duplication, but could not find how to do it. He deleted everything, and went back to factory settings. Darn if the duplicates didn't come back.
He went to my Verizon account, and went to the Verizon Cloud. Clicked on Contacts, and there were all the duplicate contacts. He deleted the duplications, leaving the original for each contact. BINGO the problem was solved.
I am using the Standard Messaging instead of Verizon messaging Plus. The Tech said that if I had been using Using Verizon Messaging Plus this may not of happened. I just down want the added cost of Messaging Plus.
Thanks for the response.

How ro remove unwanted Product Categories in SRM 5.0 Extended Classic

Hello Everyone,
I have an issue with unwanted Product Caterories in production SRM. I have read seveal articles on using tow different code to delete the PC, but can't seem to get to a good solution.
1. use t-code Com_Hierarchy and delete the PC, but my trash can is grayed out and I'm not sure how to get it clear.
2. use com_product_delete_single and notes that i have to register and then fill in a table COMC_PR_TOOL_RE. when I try this in DEV the table is not define and the proces doen not seen to go anywhere.
Can some help me is either case, I like number 1, but thatjust seem to easy.
Thanks,

Sammy,
in the COMM_HIERARCHY transaction go inside the hierarhcy for the Product Groups, F6 to change the mode in "change mode" and then doble click on the Product Category you want to delete. Then you can see the trash can is active and you can delete a Category.
NB: the system give you a warning message that the source system is not srm. Just jump it with another Enter.
Hope this can help you.
Best Regards,
Maria
