HT1677 What is website data and why am I storing it?

In Safari advanced settings I have 14MB of website data.  Some entries have a large amount of data such as mail.google.com with 4.3 MB.  Google Mail in Safari is web based and I have no offline content except 1 small unread message in my inbox.  My contacts are not available when wifi or mobile is not connected so what is the "Webdata" and what would I delete if I deleted it?

Its not different. Clearing Cookies and Data in one fell swoop from the settings clears all of it at once. You also have the option of clearing cookies or any of the website data individually in the Advanced settings.
If you were having a problem with one particular website, you could go into the Advanced settings and clear the data for just that one site if you wanted to do so, or clear the data for selected websites. When you do it from the Clear Cookies and Data setting - you clear all of it at once, for all websites that you have visited.

  • Is Website Data and Freq. Visited Accurate?

    My partner is very offended by **** yet he has at least 6 on his website data and had a site (KindGirls) on his frequently visited sites show up.  He denies all of it though I said it was best to admit rather than not.  He is very against all of that (he says) and doesn't know why they are in the website data or showing up as frequently visited. He's only had phone 2 months or so and laptop is windows so icloud sharing. He does use google and has a gmail account.  Is he being truthful or is there any chance it is not accurate?  All my website data history is accurate on all devices.

  • Query as Web Services!!! What are its uses and why do we need it?

    What are its uses and why do we need it.. if other tools like Dashboard and crystal reports and Webi can connect to universe and create reports and Analytics...

    Hello  Rajsan Madhavarajan  
    Query as a Web Service (QaaWS) is a SAP Business Objects (BOBJ)  client-side tool that allows users to create and publish Web Services that can be made available over the Web.  Once these web services are created and published,  they can be consumed like any other standard Web Service in software applications including Xcelsius and Crystal Reports.   But first we have to understand what exactly is a Web Service.
    Web Service
    A Web Service is a software system that supports  interoperable interaction over a network from one computer or machine to another but is more commonly defined as a client and a server communicating data over the Web using the HTTP Protocol. Using Web Services along with Business Objects allows a live connection of data to be used in applications such as Xcelsius and Crystal Reports through a semantic layer called a Universe.
    Query as a Web Service (QaaWS)
    The two main components in QaaWS are the Client Tool and the Server.  The QaaWS Client Tool gives the end user an easy to use wizard that allows them to create Universe queries and publish them as Web Services.  Once the QaaWS is published, any user can securely access the data that the Web Service contains as long as they have access to that server. Have a look on  image below that shows the information flow to and from the server via the client.
    Advantages to QaaWS:
    Very easy to use and intuitive interface Familiar look and feel for people who have used Web Intelligence
    Leverages existing Business Objects Universes Shares metadata with Web Intelligence, Desktop Intelligence and Crystal Reports
    Maintains Business Objects Enterprise Security
    Allows live data feeds to be incorporated into Xcelsius Dashboards and Crystal Reports

  • Photo/Video editing PC build; what would you change and why?

    I'm in the planning phase of my first photo/video editing PC build.  I've done quite a bit of research to this point, and I've finally come to a decision on all of the components (I think).  After seeing how helpful everyone is on this forum, I decided to post my plan and see what everyone thinks.
    Miscellaneous info:  I am an amateur photographer looking to expand my horizons and venture into the video realm.  I will be running Windows 7 64bit with Adobe CS5 Production Premium and Lightroom 3 on a singe solid state drive and everything else will be on a 3 drive RAID 0 config.  Eventually I plan on purchasing a RAID card and a few more drives for a RAID 3 (or 5) config, but that won't be for a while.
    Ok, here's my planned build...
    Component
    Description

    So, what would you change and why?
    I'm looking forward to your responses!

    "I'll take your advice and go with Samsung F3s.  With the money I save  (by not getting the WD Caviar Blacks), I'll add a 4th drive and use the  RAID5 on the mobo until I can afford to upgrade to a proper RAID  controller."
    I might be a bit late, but wanted to let you know about motherboard software RAID configs (at least mine):
    I have an older system running an ASUS P5AD2-E Premium MB containing a Silicon Image 3114 RAID chip. I originally configured a RAID 10 array with four 74 G Raptors for speed and redundancy. Figured if I lost a disc, I could just rebuid the array. Come to find out, the Sil 3114 chip does not support rebuilding the RAID 10 array.
    I had lost a disc (disc was okay, just power to the disc was interupted) so was running on three. Fixed my power problem, went to rebuild the array and couldn't. So I figured what is the point of having a RAID 10 that I couldn't rebuild. Went to a RAID 0 with a backup disk.
    Never checked the documentation to see if software RAID 5 through the SIl 3114 was rebuildable.
    Mind you, I am not a computer guru nor all knowledgable about software/harware based RAID configs. But after talking to others who are the guru's, I found that I should stay away from the motherboard software RAID arrays and they mirror what Harm said about hardware RAID boards. But on a budget, the RAID 0 with a backup drive works for me.
    Just my 2 cents to help.

  • What is application memory and why does my macbook pro keep running out of it?

    what is application memory and why does my macbook pro keep running out of it?

    There is excessive swapping of data between physical memory (that is, the memory chips on the logic board) and virtual memory (one or more files on the startup volume.) That activity is relatively slow and causes the whole system to be less responsive. It can happen for two reasons:
              A long-running process with a memory leak (a kind of bug)
              Not enough memory for your usage pattern
    Please note that if the cause is a memory leak, installing more memory will not help. That's likely if you already have more than 4 GB of memory. Tracking down a memory leak can be difficult, and it may come down to a process of elimination.
    These instructions are for OS X 10.9 and later. Some details may be slightly different for earlier versions of OS X.
    When you notice the swap activity, open the Activity Monitor application and select All Processes from the View menu, if it's not already selected. Select the Memory tab. Click the heading of the Real Mem column in the process table twice to sort the table with the highest value at the top. If you don't see that column, select
              View ▹ Columns ▹ Real Memory
    from the menu bar.
    If one process (excluding "kernel_task") is using much more memory than all the others, that could be an indication of a leak. A better indication would be a process that continually grabs more and more real memory over time without ever releasing it. Here is an example of how it's done.
    The processes named "Safari Web Content" render web pages for Safari. They use a lot of memory and may leak if certain Safari extensions or third-party web plugins are installed. Consider them prime suspects.
    Another process often implicated in memory leaks is "inkjet4" or "inkjet8," which is a component of the HP printing software. If it's present, force-quit the process in Activity Monitor to solve the problem temporarily. Empty the print queues in the Printers & Scanners preference pane (which has a slightly different name in each recent version of OS X.) If you don't use an HP printer, reset the printing system. Otherwise, if the problem is recurrent, update the software (which may not help) or contact HP support.
    "Wired" memory should be a small part of the total. That memory is not swapped, but it makes less physical memory available which may then result in swapping. If you have a lot of wired memory, that's usually an indication of a memory leak in a third-party program that modifies the operating system at a low level. Ask for guidance in that case.
    If you don't have an obvious memory leak, your options are to install more memory (if possible) or to run fewer programs simultaneously.
    The next suggestion is only for users familiar with the shell. For a more precise, but potentially misleading, test, run the following command:
    sudo leaks -nocontext -nostacks process | grep total
    where process is the name of a process you suspect of leaking memory. Almost every process will leak some memory; the question is how much, and especially how much the leak increases with time. I can’t be more specific. See the leaks(1) man page and the Apple developer documentation for details.

  • What are smart mailboxes and why do i need both smart and "normal" ones?

    What are smart mailboxes and why do I need both smart and "normal" mailboxes?

    Hi Kingoftypos,
    Thanks for that clarification. So, now it appears that the ultimate purpose of a Smart Mailbox is to point to all emails that meet the criteria in a single place, so if they are spread among several mailboxes, you will be able to see them all together. Here is an article from Apple that describes it:
    A Smart Mailbox displays in one location messages that are stored in other mailboxes, so you don’t have to move messages between mailboxes. The messages displayed by a Smart Mailbox are based on criteria you define, and are automatically updated to include new messages that match your criteria. For example, you might create a Smart Mailbox that displays all messages found in all mailboxes from a specific sender.
    If you change a message in a Smart Mailbox, such as marking the message as read or unread, or moving or deleting the message, the change is reflected in the mailbox where the message is actually stored.
    So, adam, I would think that, if you had mail going to a lot of different places, and wanted to be able to see a particular set of those in a single place, you would use a smart mailbox. Maybe use the rules to direct your mail to different places to start with, but a smart mailbox to bring a set of common ones all together into a single smart mailbox?
    Maybe you have Rules move your Amazon mail to an Amazon folder and your Apple mail to an Apple folder, but then you have a Smart Mailbox that contains any mail that has the word "Receipt" in the Subject line?
    Just a thought....
    Cheers,

  • What are Layers? And why do I need them?

    WHAT ARE LAYERS? AND WHY DO I NEED THEM?
    Layers are an essential part of Photoshop. With Layers you can separate pictures or design elements from each other, as if they are stacked on pieces of glass. With all elements separate, you can move or change them independent of each other.
    Layers are used for many tasks, including improving your images' color or tone; merging two or more images in one Photoshop file; and creating Web designs and animations.

    PHOTOSHOP/ LAYERS BASICS - Reference Guide

    After creating the mask and applying adjustment, you can also adjust and change layer mask using selection tools or, the most common way, using brush tools.
    To have a more accurate preview of what are you doing, Alt + click on the layer mask thumbnail to show the mask in the image area.
    At this point, you will have a layer mask on your screen in large view, so it is easy to fine tune it, but you wont see how that affects your image.
    To seean  instant preview how changes on layer mask affects the adjustments, use New Window for (name of your image) from Window > Arrange.

  • What Is Memeo Backup and why is it on my MacBook Pro w/ Snow Leopard?

    What Is Memeo Backup and why is it on my MacBook Pro w/ Snow Leopard?  Does it slow down my Mac? Seems like someting has slowed down my Downloads, Updates, Backups, etc. & I don't know how to locate the source or how to fix. Any Wizards avail to share some Wisdom? I am using Ethernet Cable/Port for Internet Connection, I Use a Seagate  FreeAgent Go Flex Ultra-Portable Drive w/ Seagate's Firewire Adapter Cable.

    If this is really Memeo Backup and you want to get rid of it for a better backup program like Carbon Copy Cloner the the following shows all the stuff that Memeo Backup installer installs (based on Memeo Backup 2.5.141 which I found with a google search and downloaded):
    The primary file to disable Memeo Backup would be that file in LaunchDaemons.  Remove it and reboot and the rest is just taking up disk space.

  • What is 'Backing up' and why does it take so long even if my library is identical to my ipod?

    I've just plugged by ipod touch into the computer to sync it and it keeps telling me the ipod contains stuff that isnt in my library (eventhough my library is identical to the content on the ipod) and that if i dont back up i will lose this stuff, i clicked back up and now it has been backing up for over 2 hours! what is it doing and why is it taking so long?

    TC has to check to see which files need to be backed up. So its going thru the file directory and looking for any changes since the last backup. Do you have a lot of files on your Mac to check? Or are they just a small number but very large. If its the former, then that might be the culprit.
