    Backup your data off the machine to a external drive (not TimeMachine) and disconnect.
    Create another Admin account in System Preferences and log into it, delete your Admin Account and reboot.
    Optional: Open Disk Utility and Erase Free Space (Zero good enough, 7x for military level, both take time)
    This should be good enough to remove just your account and data without the hassle of reinstalling the OS and all new programs again.
    However if you need that level, then c boot off the 10.6 disk (or command r boot on Lion) and use Disk Utility there to Zero or 7x erase the OSX drive/partition, quit and reinstall OS X. Much more work that likely is unnecessary in your case.
    Good Luck.

  • I am an Entrepenuer as well as Business Manager related to Residential Developer and Construction, I am considering in buying a MacBook Pro 13" or an Ipad. I need advice on What should I get appropriate to my type of business?

    Don't know What is best for my type of business?

    The advice I give is one writes documents on a Mac while one reads documents and writes short notes on an iPad.  The iPad is great for surfing the net and is more portable but will not do heavier tasks as well as a Mac such as creating and editing documents, spreadsheets, and presentations.  The data you create is more secure on a Mac; it has better storage and backup features.  So for a read-mostly device the iPad work great but if you get into creating and editing documents then the iPad can fall short.
    For a portable Mac consider a 3 lb. 13” MacBook Air or a 3.5 lb 13” Retina MacBook Pro.  For your applications they have similar capabilities and similar portability.  The non-Retina MacBook Pro weighs a lot more (4.5 lbs).

  • Every time Firefox open I get an error message stating "Unable to start the Bluetooth stack Service". What does this mean and what should I do about it, if anything?

    This occurs ever time I start my computer. It does not seem to impact anything I do. I just click OK and it goes away with no apparent harm.

    Thank you so much for answering a question that has been bugging (no pun intended) me for so long. I am not a technical person at all, as you can see by my assumption that this was a Firefox and not a Windows situation, and I would have continued to just kept on hitting the OK button forever. I opted out by disabling the option but I copied the solution to a Word document and placed in a file just in case I needed to reverse in the future. Thanks once again for your quick response and interest in helping. Ed

  • What does "java not detected" mean and what should I do about it?

    I am a teacher who teaches partly online. While trying to use Screen Recorder in Kaltura Media Space to record my desktop with audio voiceover, I encountered this message in red and was not able to use this device? I am not sure what the message means or how to fix this. I am using MacOS 10.9.1 and Safari. MediaSpace is provided by our school system, so I am not able to use my iPad to do this.

    Do you have a Java Preference Pane in System Preferences? if not, Java isn't installed and from your description, it sounds like it may be required. You can also try running this Java Test.

  • Gray lines (like etch a sketch lines) have appeared on my iPad 2 screen. Why and what should I do about them?

    Gray vertical lines have appeared on my iPad 2 screen. Much like an etch a sketch. What are they and is there anything that can be done about them?

    Do they stay in the same place whichever way up you hold the iPad, and do they still show when you've got an app open ?
    Have you tried a reset to see if they still show after the iPad has restarted ? Press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.
    If that doesn't fix it then you could try restoring to your backup and/or resettings back to factory defaults. But you may need to contact Apple.

  • Finder not able to view folders and files on EHD after updating to OS X 10.9.4

    I can see still see 'Hitachi' in the 'Devices' Sidebar, but I am not able to view folders and files on this Hitachi XL2000 2TB FAT32 Hard Drive (EHD) that is USB connected to the iMac below.
    Late 2013 Apple iMac (27-inch Display 2560 x 1440), 3.4GHz Quad-core Intel Core i5, Turbo Boost up to 3.8GHz, 8GB 1600MHz DDR3 SDRAM - 2X4GB, 512GB Flash Storage, NVIDIA GeForce GTX 775M 2GB GDDR5, Magic Trackpad, Apple Wireless Keyboard and OS X 10.9.4 Mavericks
    All was fine until I updated from OS X 10.9.3 to 10.9.4 earlier this week, so now when I double-click on 'Hitachi' it just loads and loads with nothing happening and never displays the folder and file contents of the EHD.
    Also, confirmed that Hitachi EHD has been removed from Spotlight indexing per System Preferences > Privacy > + > Hitachi and it was so this does not seem to be an indexing issue.
    I have used OnyX and Apple Disk Utilities unsuccessfully to try and fix this problem.
    Interestingly, Backblaze online backup still sees the EHD and connecting this EHD to a Win 8.1 PC also sees the EHD.
    Further, I ran the commands below in 'Terminal' to make sure the drive was visible and got the following results which shows that the EHD is not hidden.
    iMac:Applications john$ chflags nohidden /Volumes/Hitachi/
    iMac:Applications john$ GetFileInfo /Volumes/Hitachi/
    directory: "/Volumes/HITACHI"
    attributes: avbstclinmedz
    modified: 07/10/2014 23:26:44
    Finally, I installed XtraFinder and am still not able to see the contents of the EHD, but when I installed OmniDiskSweeper I can navigate the EHD folder tree with no problems and can see the contents of the EHD, but when I try and open up a file it opens Finder which loads and loads and nothing happens.

    Apple Support was quite helpful, but in the end I will wait to do a clean install of OS X Yosemite which is due in the Fall and not try and fix OS X 10.9.4 Mavericks.
    It turns out that I run backups on my '/Users/john/Library' and the size of this folder before the 10.9.4 update was 1.07 GB and after the update it is 806.9 MB which is baffling, but in the end all of these problems should be resolved with a clean install of OS X Yosemite.
    One lesson learned for the future is that I will wait on installing an update until it has been in the wild for awhile as a quick OS X Mavericks Finder Problem search and similar searches show there could be an issue.

  • Hi, I have Photoshop CS5 and cannot view my RAW files. Can anyone help me, please?

    Hello,
    I have PS5 and I cannot view my raw files. Can you help me?

    Hi Gautam,
    You are right thank you. I check the article and my camera canon 6D

    I did so research, I tried to open my PS5 and went to help \ update and I
    tried downloading update like 4 times each time there was a message "there
    was an error downloading this update. Please quit and try again later".
    I just need camera raw 7.3 so I can work on my raw files. Maybe you will be
    able to help. I appreciate in advance.

  • Cannot view folders in mini bridge

    Hello,
    when trying to use mini bridge in ID CS6, I cannot view folders. I can look at drives, and places such as desk top, but it will only find individual image files, and cannot find any folders. As most of my assest are in folders, this is exceedingly frustrating. I remember CS5 not having this issue. Is there a preference or setting I am missing, or is this how Adobe always "improves" their products when they update.
    Any help is appreciated.
    Thanks

    I have done that, but it still does not find folders. Specifically, let's say folders within folders. I mentioned that I can find places, such as desktop, but it won't find 'folders' on my desktop. Just indivdual files. Here is a screen shot of what I mean. On my desk top, I happen to have a folder of assets, but it is not finding it when I have 'desk top' highlighted in the navigation. This is a problem that there seems to be now answer for.

  • I have my library in AIFF format on my iMac. I want to converte all in Apple less loss on my macbook pro. how can i do? becouse if i converte the files, i find on library the two version, AIFF and Apple lessloss....

    about 300 CD imported on my IMAC in AIFF version.
    I want to create the same library on my macbook pro, but Apple lessloss to use for ipod and other device.
    I import on the finder'S macbook pro all the library ( many gigabyte in AIFF version). I open Itunes, add to library the folder, on preference i set Apple lessloss, but itunes import AIFF version.
    If i converte on itunes the files, i find all the two version: AIFF and Apple lessloss. I cannot remove manually all the file AIFF....
    Duplicate files is impossible to remove with 11 version...

    Select 'Songs' then 'List'. Click on the top of the 'Kind' column to sort by type of file, thus bringing all the AIFF files together. (If you don't have a 'Kind' column, enable it in View>View Options).
    Click on the top AIFF file in the list, then shift click on the bottom one to select them all. Hit the delete key. At the prompt, be sure to choose to move them to the Trash or they will disappear from the list but remain in the actual Library in the Finder.
