HT1766 MobileSync folder too big, can I delete?

If I switch my iPad backing up to iCloud, does that free up internal drive space?

No, I don't need these files for troubleshooting. Thank you gentlemen for your responses.

  • HT204259 What if I had my iPhoto "volume" on an external HD when I converted to Photos, so now I see a Photos "volume" on the EHD too.  Can I delete the Photos "volume" to allow import of the iPhoto volume onto my new bigger internal HD?

  • CatalogData folder too big on passive server in DAG

    I have a two Exchange 2010 server DAG.  One is active and the other is mounted but passive.
    On at least two of the replicated and mounted databases on the passive server, the CatalogData folder is too big.
    I noticed inside of them, they have old .ci and .dir files from last year.....really long ago and I need to get rid of them.
    Can I delete them safely without affecting the DAG and/or replication?  
    What is the best way to do this on the passive server without affecting any mail flow or the DAG?

    Simply stop the Exchange Indexing service on the server and delete the catalog folder and restart the indexing service. Or update-mailboxdatabasecopy  (ServerCopy) -catalogonly

  • I have a folder that I can't delete (in "Properties" it shows a blank for "Location")

    In Thunderbird I have a sub-folder that I am unable to delete (or perform any other action on).
    Nor can I delete any folders higher up the tree that contains this folder.
    In "Properties" it is shown as having no "Location".
    I need to delete it as I believe that it is preventing me from making a backup of Thunderbird (using MozBackup).
    How can I remove this folder ?

    Thank you Gnospen and Zenos for your contributions.
    I could not repair the problem with the "Repair" function at any level of the tree.
    Eventually I decide to live with the problem and copied the profile folder contained in the "Username\AppData\Roaming\Thunderbird\Profiles" Folder.
    I then copied that to the same location on my new PC (having first deleted the existing equivalent folder on there).
    I then edited "profiles.ini" to point at the copied-over profiles folder.
    I discovered that the sub-folder I had the problem with now had a location and I could access its contents too.
    A very useful (but unexpected) result !!!

  • Burn to DVD folder - too big to burn to DVD - Options please?

    I burned a large project to a DVD folder as PAL. I was able to burn that folder (VIDEO_TS) to a DVD using Nero without a problem.
    I then needed an NTSC version. I burned the same project to a folder as NTSC. I don't remember seeing any warning messages.
    When I tried burning the NTSC folder to a DVD with Nero, Nero complained it was too big to fit on the DVD. I imagine the over-sized burn is because of the higher frame rate of NTSC (30 vs 25).
    Question is: What are my options? I prefer not to use dual layer DVD's, and I prefer to burn to folder out of PE4 then use Nero or other to burn the actual DVD. I also don't want to cut out any of my source clips.
    I should say that I'm not overly concerned about final quality, so if I can simply use a lower bitrate or whatever, where is the best place to set that?
    (Edit) - Note that I had the check box checked that says "Fit Contents to Available Space", and it suggested 4.38Gb required. Did this not work because it is perhaps impossible for PE4 to forcast the exact requirement??
    Thanks,
    Dave

    Dave JM,
    If you took your project on the Timeline, sent it to Share, Disk and were in the DVD Burn area with the Burn to = Folder (4.7)....
    1. You did change the preset from DV PAL to DV NTSC?
    2. After you did that, you did have checked "Fit Contents To Available Space" and then said that it said 4.3 GB space required. Equally important, what was the Bitrate after it said 4.3 GB space required? I would like to know just how much lower it was than the High value 8.
    3. You say that you did not get any warning, such as one related to Data Rate??
    Also, when you made the Presets switch from DV PAL to DV NTSC, did you see any change in the Space Required and/or Bitrate that was shown in the Burn Area?
    If you did not, might it not be reasonable to look into the Nero Burn Video Files route more closely? I am just speculating that Nero Burn Video Files route might have different space required criteria?????
    It is not clear to me why you would get the job done using PAL and not NTSC? I might suggest that you look at the PAL/NTSC bitrate comparison in Premiere Elements and, if indicated, lower the NTSC bitrate to reduce the space required to one that works for Nero. The Quality is going to suffer. By lower, I mean the smallest possible changes to reach the goal.
    I know that you do not want to, but have you tried the Burn to Disc route for this NTSC project, just to see if it would work at all?

  • Display is too big, can't see the menu bar.

    I have a 32" tv that i connected it to my mac pro. I see te display, but it is too big. I can't see the menu bar. I've tried changing the resolution, holding control and scrolling, and changing the display size on the tv settings. Any suggestions?

    If there are no size settings on the TV that work (some TVs don't have the correct settings) see if there are Overscan or Underscan settings in the Mac's Displays system preference.

  • Deleted User folder in finder, can I delete it?

    Hey guys, so I've recently come across a folder in my favorites column in finder called Deleted Users. What is it exactly? and can I delete it? Using omnidisk sweeper I've found it's been taking up 40+gb of space on my HDD. Thanks for the help!

    System Preferences gives you the option to keep an user folder when you remove the user, and that's the folder where it is stored. You can remove it from the sidebar without any problem by holding the Command key and dragging it off the Finder sidebar.
    That folder should be in /Users, so go there and delete the folder if you don't need the files stored in it

  • Temporaryitems folder in cache- Can I delete it's contents?

    HI all,
    I'm just discovering that the Cache folder is the culprit in taking up most of my Disk space, as I always use an external hard drive for all of my content.  So--how do I delete the cache folder contents? I discovered that the largest folder in there is called "Temporaryitems" and has only two things  that are amounting to 40 gigs of space. Can I delete these things or will it reak havoc?
    I've search the web for an hour and didn't find anything specific to this question.
    Thanks!!

    Restart the computer. If the files remain, they can just be deleted.

  • Scans are too big Can I re-size a scan?

    I scan a lot of contracts and I just bought my photosmart 7525 today.  I scanned a contract but it would not email to my account.  i'm thinking that it was too big for my email account.  The size was only 9.25 mb but it still seemed like a lot because the contract was only 24 pages of written word.  No photos!  Is there a way to re-size my scans?  If I scanned the same document from the office, it would only be about 1 mb.
    Thanks!

    Hello baseballrob3,
    Welcome to the HP Support Forums!
    I understand you are looking to have the Photosmart 7525 scan an image / several pages of images and have them save in a smaller size.
    What is the Operating System installed on the computer you are scanning with, Windows or Mac?
    I was looking into the scanning options, (using similar software to this printer on Windows 8.1) and found a couple ways to lower the file size. If you do not need to scan in color, choose Black and white. Lowering the DPI / PPI will hugely impact the saved file size.
    Let me know if you are able to find those options within your scanning software, and if it was helpful.

  • My downloads are making my computer run too slow - can I delete?

    Help! Call me stupid, or computer illiterate or whatever. But, I don't know what to do. All of my music is stored in ITunes. My computer is running really slow and I am running out of space. Can I delete my music without losing it? Will it still be held in my Itunes account? Thanks for the help

    You need some kind of backup. If you just delete it from your PC and keep it on your iPod, when you need to restore your iPod (and you will, at some point) your music will be lost.
    You'll either have to reburn CDs you own, or repurchase music from the iTunes store.
    You only get one download from iTunes:

  • Empty Applescript folder in Applications - Can i delete?

    I have deleted an applescript folder in my applications folder as it was empty and i thought that it related to some software i was removing. I have a macbook too and saw that the folder is in my applications on that as well. Again, there is nothing in there.
    Can the folder be deleted. If i need it can i copy it across from my macbook.
    Hope you can help.

    I don't have any such folder on any of my SL macs. it's not part of the OS. it's something one of your 3rd party apps created. you can delete it if you want to.
    it could also be that it's a leftover from an upgrade from leopard. there was such a folder at in /Applications in leopard. but it's not used in snow leopard. the upshot is still the same - you can delete it.

  • Backup files on PC becomes too big, how to delete files not needed and where to delete them?

    I used iTune to manage iPhone and iPad. iTune will back up content of both devices. I found that recently the backup files become too many and used up a significant amount of my PC harddisk. How do I go about to delete old backup files to release harddisk space? Thanks.

    Backups for iPods, iPhones, and iPads are fairly small in size... 60-70mb approximately.
    I seriously doubt they are filling your hard drive or using a significant amount of space.
    You can remove backups via iTunes
    Edit > Preferences > Devices
    Select the backup or backups and delete them.
    Here's the Apple support article about backups: http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1766

  • My itunes has created a duplicate podcast folder. How can I delete this? I can't sync my podcasts to my ipod because there are now two Podcast folders.

    How do I delete the duplicate podcast folder? Because there are two podcast folders it is stopping my ipod nano from syncing when i plug it in.  I have searched the libraries on the hard drive but this extra podcast folder can't be found.

    I have figured out a workaround that may work for you.  It doesn't address the cause of the problem but it has gotten me past the problem.  Note: Mac OSX
    1.  Make note of all of the podcasts that you currently have in each of your folders.  You will need this to get back to your current position if you choose.
    2a.  Right click on the first of the two folders named Podcast.  (Command Click, two-finger tap, as appropriate.)  Delete should appear as an option.  Select it.  All of the contents and subscriptions in that folder will be lost.
    On my system, Delete appeared as an option only on the first of the two folders named Podcast.
    2b.  I deleted the contents of the second folder but, in retrospect, I don't think that was necessary.
    3.  You should now be left with just one Podcast folder.
    4.  Go to the iTunes store and resubscribe or download the podcasts you wish to restore.  All of the podcasts should appear in the one remaining podcast folder.  When I hit refresh to check, it did not crash this time.
    5.  Sync to your ipod.  I got a warning message about the mismatch, said ok and let the sync proceed.  It appears to have worked, as it did on my ipad.
    Messy but it worked.  Hope it helps both you, evechoc and ifan94. 
    Good luck!

  • Parallels partition too big, can I make it smaller?

    I only have about 3 gb left on my 120gb drive, and it seems that Parallels has taken about 30 gb of my 120.
    Can I make that partition smaller, easily? I really don't want to reformat or reinstall.
    Thanks in advance.

    Ok, but 7.72 GB free on a drive with ~112 GB capacity (which is the real capacity of a 120 GB drive) means you have less than 7% free space. Running that close to the edge will cause problems with your system. In other words, you sholud be looking to delete (or archive to external storage) some files, either inside your Parallels VM or elsewhere on your Mac (movies, iMovie projects, maybe you have lots of music, etc.).
    You can use freeware such as Disk Inventory X to see what's taking the most space on your HDD.

  • Folder too big for DVD

    If I try to Share - Burn a DVD of a folder and the size of the folder is larger than the capacity of the DVD, will it share it over several DVD's? Basically, we've had family visit who have taken photos and now I'm trying to burn them to a DVD for them.

    Terence,
    Correct. It's only a replacement for the 'burn' part, when one's files exceed the capacity of a DVD.
    I should use the shareware 'FileJuicer' to extract originals from an iPhoto Library; but, lacking that, one could try using a 'Smartfolder' to assist, unless the photos to burn must be selected individually.
    Having iPhoto 5, I prefer to automatically move my photos using 'Image Capture' from my camera to 'Pictures', which is adjusted to the largest icon size, to preview them. I edit duplicates using the least difficult editor needed for the photo, then move one 'shoot' to a folder appropriately named. I have a text document with paragraphs of common keywords that I select, drag, & edit to the EXIF data in Preview (or later, in iPhoto); then I drag the happy folder to iPhoto. Because JPEGs are already compressed, I can archive 'Pictures' regularly (without its iPhoto Library) to optical media for relatives who have Linux or Windows.
    iPhoto's greatest asset, to me, is its ability to fit many photos on a letter-sized piece of photo paper and print to paper well. (The photo canisters are cute, though.)
