Empty the trash to release more HD space.

Hi, I have a PPC Running OSX 10.5.4 and I want to delete the User "Guest"and "Shared"Folders on my HD, they won't let me change the permissions and I keep getting errors that say the permissions should be 0 and are 501 and having files i can't delete that

Hi, I have a PPC Running OSX 10.5.4 and I want to delete the User "Guest"and "Shared"Folders on my HD, they won't let me change the permissions and I keep getting errors that say the permissions should be 0 and are 501 and having files i can't delete that go on and on ad infinitum... I think it's a virus or a corruption? Can anyone tell me or help me and let me know what I'm dealing with here or wether I'm mistaken and should leave it alone?
I'd appreciate it.
Thanks,
Matt

Why do you want to delete those? What have you done so far to do that?
I doubt that Mac has a virus. On the other hand, your attempts to deleted those folders may have caused corruption.
Two other comments:
1) Is there a reason that Mac hasn't been updated to OS X 10.5.8?
2) You've been misled by the poor field labeling on this Web site into trying to type your entire post into the "subject" field. In the future, just put a short summary of your post into that field.

Thanks. I might use it soon...
Does it automatically make folders named after the volume labels? And does it handle the conversion of spaces and non-alphanumeric characters to octal codes?
I could read the script but it would be faster for everyone reading, if you leave the answer as a reply.
I also think that there should be some major work done on modernizing the fstab, either by replacing it with a better implementation of file system mounting or changing the file structure and adding in better handling of non-alphanumerics. I don't want to have to look up a stupid octal table every time I type in my labels.

Get AppZapper, a free program that removes apps. Make sure everything has been removed by checking with Spotlight once the app has been zapped.

My mobile was stolen and I want to delete the data on it without deleting it from iCloud, how can I do that?

My mobile was stolen and I want to delete the data on it without deleting it from iCloud, how can I do that?

Welcome to the Apple Community.
You can erase it with find my phone if you had enabled it, this doesn't wipe the data in your iCloud account.

HT4910 iCloud won't let me erase my previous backups because it says its being used by another iPhone? the apple store recently replaced my old iPhone with a new one, and I want to delete the old backup, how will i do this if its still syncing to my old i

this is the error it gives me :/ how will i go about deleting my old iphone if i dont have it??

This should clear up on its own and allow you to delete the account, however it can take 3-5 days before this happens.

I have backed up my disk using Time Machine. Now I want to delete the backed-up files from my hard drive. But when I do and reconnect the external hard drive, the files are also deleted on that. What do I do?

I have backed up my disk using Time Machine. I then deleted the back-up files from my MacBook hard drive.
I then reconnected my external hard drive and find the files I deleted from my hard drive are also deleted from
my external hard drive. Can someone tell my what what happened? I'm confused.

Hello,
Time Machine is not a good way to do that, when it eventually needs more room it deletes old Backups to make room.
If you really want to keep Files but remove them from the Internal Drive, then I'd get another external drive to copy or clone them to that is not used for TM.

How can i restore an ipod touch 5 if the owner sold it to me and doesnt want to delete the account and i bought it online

i bought an ipod touch on ebay from a seller and the seller told me he bought it from someone but they refuse to give him the info to unlock icloud and im stuck with an ipod on activation mode with icloud account on need help

You don't. It's a brick. Return it and get your money back.
the seller told me he bought it from someone but they refuse to give him the info to unlock icloud
That's a pretty clear indication that it's stolen. If the seller won't refund your money, file a claim with eBay. If that doesn't pan out, then turn it over to the police and give them all the information you have on the seller. Maybe if you tell the seller you're going to do that, they'll be more inclined to refund your money rather than face criminal charges.

How can I control stepping motor with PCI-7344 & UMI-7764? And I want to know the simplest circuit that I can do by myself?

Now I don't want to by commercial stepping motor driver, I want to do it by myself. I want to know the simplest driver circuit to drive and control my stepping motor (+5V 4 phases).

From the 7344's perspective, in open loop stepper mode, the only necessary outputs are the pulse train for steps and a TTL flag for direction. You can also set it for CW/CCW mode, which will output two separate pulse trains: one for clockwise motion, one for counter-clockwise motion.
If you only need to decode the signals into four phases and not amplify them above 5V, then a small IC might work for you (as long as you don't need a lot of current). A reconfigurable FPGA could be programmed to decode the incoming signal and output the four phases pretty easily. However, I honestly believe your best bet is just to buy a recommended amplifier for the motors.
Good Luck

I downloaded some music on my iPhone through iCloud and I want them off the phone now. How can I get rid of the songs??

I just got the iPhone 4 and decided to put some music on it so i used the iCloud system. when they were downloading i decided i didnt want some of themso i stopped the sync. Now the songs are stuck onthe phone but they are greyed out and wont play... i cant figure out how to remove them! help please!!
P.s. i tried to redownload them and it didnt work either.. just made duplicates.

In the iTunes Store click Purchased in the Quick Links section on the right.

I just bought an audiobook, it says I cant sync it to my phone because it can only sync with one library at a time and it wants to erase my phone completely. How can I get an audiobook without erasing my entire library of 2500 songs and other books?

How can I sync a new audiobook without having to erase my entire library?

Put the audiobook in the library on your computer, then sync to the phone.

The item "safari.jsp.download" can't be moved to the Trash because it can't

I understand there is no way around the poor server quality issue, but I have received the following error when I visited a site and gotten an automatic download:
The item “safari.jsp.download” can’t be moved to the Trash because it can’t be deleted.
Is there a way around this. I hate the fact the icon is staying on my desktop. I can't move it to a folder, Applications, or the trash. Any thoughts?

Hi,
You need to quit Safari either from the Safari menu bar, Safari / Empty Cache or Command + Option + E on your keyboard.
Move the file to the Trash. Now empty the Trash.
Relaunch Safari.
More insight to the .jsp file here.

I am trying to delete duplicate songs in my library, when I click on the duplicate and go to edit to delete it, it asks me if i want to delete the playlist!

I am trying to delete duplicate songs in my library, when I go to edit to delete it, it asks me if I want to delete the playlist!

Apple's official advice on duplicates is here... HT2905: How to find and remove duplicate items in your iTunes library. It is a manual process and the article fails to explain some of the potential pitfalls such as lost ratings and playlist membership.
Use Shift > View > Show Exact Duplicate Items to display duplicates as this is normally a more useful selection. You need to manually select all but one of each group to remove. Sorting the list by Date Added may make it easier to select the appropriate tracks, however this works best when performed immediately after the dupes have been created. If you have multiple entries in iTunes connected to the same file on the hard drive then don't send to the recycle bin.
Use my DeDuper script if you're not sure, don't want to do it by hand, or want to preserve ratings, play counts and playlist membership. See this thread for background, this post for detailed instructions, and please take note of the warning
to backup your library before deduping.
(If you don't see the menu bar press ALT to show it temporarily or CTRL+B to keep it displayed.)
The most recent version of the script can tidy dead links as long as there is at least one live duplicate to merge stats and playlist membership to and should cope sensibly when the same file has been added via multiple paths.
