I can't delete from secondary hd. error 1401.

I can't delete from my secondary drive. No "ignore ownership" shows up on its info window.

Yes but that had no effect.So I used a program I had downloaded a while agao called Batch mod. It offered the option to change ownership on selected volumes etc. It solved the problem Immediately. BTW Last year, after two months of getting suggestions from apple on how to fix permissions problems with no results, I downloaded this program and it worked instantly. Please check it out for yourself. And if you are permitted,please reccommend it to others.

Updated to iTunes 11.1 and many of my podcasts were, as far as I can tell, deleted from my account. 'This American Life' in particular, cannot be redownloaded for free and I want the unlistened podcasts I accrued to come back! Any tips or suggestions?

Updated to iTunes 11.1 and many of my podcasts were, as far as I can tell, deleted from my account. 'This American Life' in particular, cannot be redownloaded for free and I want the unlistened podcasts I accrued to come back! I'm also afraid that if I sync my iPod now, the podcasts that I have on there but have been removed from the computer, will also be removed from the iPod.
Any tips or suggestions?

What really cheeses me off here is that Apple isn't allowing users enough customization. With each update of iTunes (and the OS and iOS) we're forced to give up something that worked well for the way we want to use the app and make do with fewer (and lamer) options. If Apple keeps this up, they're going to start losing customers fast. I mean if this isn't fixed soon, I'm pretty sure I'm going to give up on iTunes, and then I'll probably go ahead and get a Galaxy when I need to replace my iPhone.
What I don't understand about how they won't let users delete the list of available podcasts now is why? How is this making it a better program? I can understand that not all users are capable enough to right-click on a feed and select "Show all available episodes", so I can see why they want the complete list to be the default (and, surprise, it already was). But to not give users the option to delete that list? It's inconsiderate because it makes navigating feeds with a large back catalogue really frustrating. I'm flabbergasted that no one at Apple considered all the podcast feeds that keep hundreds of episodes available when they removed this feature. It smacks of rank incompetence.
What improvement were they trying to make here anyway? There was nothing wrong to my mind about how podcasts were managed in previous versions. Whatever improvement they were trying to make here, they should have realized that many users would at least want the option to keep things the way they were.
And reverting to a previous version is no solution. I can't sync my iPhone with the new iOS without this update, and (while I do have some issues--specifically how you can't play podcasts in the Music app anymore) I do like the new iOS.

I have emails that I can not delete from my Junk mail folder. How do I permanently delete them?

I have emails that I can not delete from my Junk mail folder. How do I permanently delete them?

Weird.
Someone might stop by who has experienced/fixed/read about this before. In the meantime...
By "re-indexed my email" do you mean you rebuilt the mailbox via the "Rebuild" command in the Mailbox menu? Did you try that for all the affected mailboxes?
Also, you might try experimenting with the settings in Mail, Preferences, Accounts having to do with whether junk mail messages are stored on the server and whether they are to be deleted.
Does this behavior persist when you are not connected to the internet?

If I saved something on my external drive as a back up / time machine can I delete from laptop without losing anything?

if I saved something on my external drive as a back up can I delete from laptop without losing anything?

No. Eventually, Time Machine will delete it from the backup. Time Machine is not a storage concept, it's a backup concept. If you need permanent file storage, then get another drive for that.

What can I delete from Extensions and System folder?

I just installed System 10.4 bundled with Classic Mode on my eMac. There seemed to be a lot of things that got installed that I won't need, such as: printer drivers, iChat, Quicken and World Book Encyclopedia. What can I safely delete from the Extensions folder that will not affect the operating system, keeping in that want to run on programs in Classic Mode? Is there anything else I can delete along these lines that will free up hard drive space? Is there anything I can safely delete from the System Folder?
I chose the Archive and install for installation. It says it created a "Previous System Folder". Can I delete this Previous System Folder to make it run faster?

A standard install loads you up with a pile of unneeded printer drivers, foreign fonts and foreign language support. Did you do the optional install that allows you to omit these space-eaters? If not, as this is a new install, you might consider reinstalling and exercising the optional or custom install options.
Back in the OS9 and earlier days when hard drives were tiny and RAM was expensive, it was a real help to rid one's self of the extra unused extensions. They had "open" and easily understood file names making it a no-brainer to drag those extensions to an "unused extension" folder outside the System folder.
Of all the eMacs made there were only two basic logic board architectures. The first would accommodate up to 1 GB RAM and the second could handle a total of 2GB RAM. Do "About this Mac" from your Apple menu and, in the resulting window, click the "More Info..." button to launch System Profiler.
In Profiler's first screen you can tell which architecture you have. The second line in OS 104 is "Machine Model" followed by a code:
code "PowerMac4,4" --the first architecture, with USB 1.1 and a max RAm of 1GB
code "PowerMac6,4 --that later and desirable USB 2.0 logic board that can do 2GB RAM.
If you have a 4,4 the RAM for that model is listed here:
http://eshop.macsales.com/MyOWC/Upgrades.cfm?sort=pop&model=146&type=Memory
"PC-133" RAM is preferred in 4,4 eMacs for best function.
The same vendor has RAM for the 6,4 here:
http://eshop.macsales.com/MyOWC/Upgrades.cfm?sort=pop&model=223&type=Memory
I've bought 90 percent of my RAM from this vendor for the last decade and can vouch for their product quality and customer service.
The point is that maxxing out your RAM is not expensive and saves you a lot of grief from deleting some file with a cryptic OSX name that the computer really needs.

What can I delete from what folders to A) get more space and B) speed up machine. 2009 Imac Intel based Leopard

If you start deleting things in hidden system folders, or in an /Library folder you may very well mess up something.
That is why I say limit what you delete to your User folder only and only those files you've put or created there. Start messing with anything system or application related without know exactly what you are doing and you risk fubar'ing something.
There are in fact many places in the system areas that will appear to be redundant, but they are not so just because they have similar path or file names.
Also, how much free space do you have with just a freshly rebooted system? If your system does not have much RAM (given the apps your normally run on it), it may be creating quite a bit of swap space. That will be flushed out with a reboot, but if your system is RAM limited, then it will just grow back. In such a case, more RAM would help.
Use Activity Monitor to look at your RAM and swap use over a few days of normal use - look particularly at the page outs, as that will tell you how much virtual memory is actually being used on the drive. If page outs are high (thousands to 10's of thousands or more) your system is RAM limited, and your drive will be filling up with swap files.

The podcast stuck and i can't delete from my iphone

I try to download podcast but there was an error. Then when i open my podcast it was there but it didn't play.
Also i can't delete it. Anyone has an idea about that error. How can i delete it?

Go into iTunes and check "Sync Podcasts" then sync, uncheck "Sync podcasts" and sync, than do it again and it should take care of everything. Worked for me
Or just go into Settings -> General -> Usage and Select music - than hit delete and re sync from iTunes. That will clear all the audio caches from the phone

N97 What can I delete from C: in order to make spa...

I am using Nokia Messaging with my Gmail account but, due to low memory problems on C, I am obliged to delete my incoming mails almost every hour in order to make space. Problem is that I cannot delete on the phone without sync which means that the mails are also deleted on the server which is not ok if I want to keep some mails for further reference.
So, I have to find more space on C but what can I delete without affecting the normal operation of the phone ?
For instance, can I delete OVI store or APIBridge ?
It is time that Nokia issues a new firmware allowing a better use of the memory !!!!
Thanks in advance for your help.

Hi, first you could change messagememory - copy messages from C to E and delete them from C afterwards. Open the onboard browser and delete privacy data. About messages - you will have to set up your mailaccount again on E - delet whats on C.
All apps as facebook, fring, nimbuzz etc can be installed at E. Install everything possible on E. - You could delete ovistore and use it through the webbrowser instead. - I think Carman does that.

Need to know how records can be deleted from a talbe when user hits cancel report

If the user hits the cancel report when the report is processing the records in the records never gets deleted from the table.
If anyone knows how this can be done, please help me.
Thanks in advance.

If your database is 8.1.6, you can try to use temporary tables. The data inside them is automatically deleted when the session (report) ends.
Also the data is private for each session, so no other user can see the data you have in the temporary table.
Did you think about the situation when two users will run the report at the same time? How are you handling this (the fact that their data may be scrambled...) The Oracle temporary table eliminates this possibility.

Does anyone have any idea what could be the problem?

"Recent" (at least on Windows) is not an actual folder; it's just a list of recently used files/documents. I clean such things using CCleaner.

TA20637 I have a print job that I can not delete from the queue.

When I try it says "job is completed and can not be deleted from queue" but it seems to be stuck (and keeps reprinting rather than letting me print other documents). What do I do? I tried clearling the printer queue by turning the printer on and off but that is not dumping the cache.

So, you can't select it in the queue and Delete it the usual way...
If nothing else works, you may need to remove printer from the list in System Preferences Print & [Scan/Fax] pane. Then add it back.
And if NOTHING else works, you can also Reset printing system. This removes ALL printers from the list and resets the overall printing system. The command is in the same System Preferences pane. Right (Control) click on the list of printers and select Reset printing system. This time, you'll need to add all of your printers back.

HT4847 Can't delete from iCloud!

I don't seem to be able to delete documents from iCloud. Tried it on 2 different devices (Mac Mini and iPhone), press Delete, or Delete all and everything seems to be deleted, check again in 5 minutes and everythign is still there.

What kind of documents are you trying to delete.
If Pages documents: On iPhone, invoke Pages, on the Documents page, tap Edit. Then tap a doc icon and press the trash can. If you next check the mac mini, look in Pages. The deleted file probably still appears, but that is the local copy of the file. Right click it and get a menu that includes Delete File. Choosing that will bring up the warning that if you delete the doc it will be deleted from icloud and all other devices. If you have a second device, like an ipad and watch it's Pages document page, you should see the file icon gone (in my test, I saw the icon, but it disappeared shortly after).
I think the bottom line is that using a device, the file will be deleted from icloud, but on a mac, the file still comes up, but it's the local copy of it. (The mac keeps a local copy, that's why you can open such a file even when the mac is not connected to the internet.)
Another way to delete a file in icloud:
Try logging into icloud.com with a browser and delete files from the iWork page.
