Is there any alternate way of deleteing without using finder?

My Mac os x has full memory... Totally 100% cpu usage and now when I log on it will not show my backaround or display the dashboard or any menus so I cannot launch finder to allow me to delete files, also will not launch any applications and gives 'cannot connect to the agent" error message, twice. Oddly the speach icon (the round blue icon that comes up when you use the speech function) still appears and i can use that to get to system preferences from there I am stuck. I need to delete files but can't.
Can some one help me?

Welcome to the Apple Support Communities
Press Shift key when your Mac starts, so you can delete files or copy them to an external disk

  • My iphone was stolen, when i tracked my phone its already offline so without hesitation i deleted it. Is there any other way to track it using serial number? or make the phone good as a dead iphone?

    my iphone was stolen, when i tracked my phone its already offline so without hesitation i deleted it. Is there any other way to track it using serial number? or make the phone good as a dead iphone?

    Sorry, there is no way to track your phone. Call your carrier, & if they offer blacklisting, have them blacklist your phone.
    Since you're running iOS 7.0. the phone is useless to anyone but you, as it cannot be re-activated without knowing your Apple ID/Password.

    with some 5.0.X.X OSes, the BBm is a core application and cannot be removed.
    BUT other 5.0.X.X OSes, the BBm has become an addon application and can be removed. (i.e. 5.0.0.436 and on 5.0.0.462)
    if you have the first category OS, I suggest you try and install BBm for example using AppWorld. Maybe by upgrading BBm, it will become an addon.

    Hey Posada143, You can still try the rice thing, but do not expect much, as roaminggnome has stated. The rice only works if you do it ASAP and leave the iPod off-- do not attempt use, turn on or charge until it is completely dried out. This is probably academic at this point but remember this for the next time: The drying can take 10 days. You put the uncooked rice and iPod in a sealed bag, change the rice every couple of days. This creates a low humidity environment and draws the moisture out of the iPod, but it takes time. Turn your iPod on to earlier, and you run the risk of shorting out, damaging the components inside. Even if done correctly it can spotty. If you do get the iPod to work (and this may require Resetting, Restoring or attempting to place it in DFU recover mode) the first thing you do is make backups, because you never know how long it will continue to work. As for your pictures, if you can't get your iPod to work, you can try data retrieval companies, however; there is no guaranty it will work and it tends to be very expensive. In the future get in the habit of as making backups, because you just don't know. And invest in and use a water tight case. Hope this helps, Good luck. Cheers.

  • Is there any collective way to have Lightroom 5 find lost files?

    Though I have tried to move folders and files only with Lightroom, I note that a good number of my images shown in thumbnails in Library cannot be opened because Lightroom 5 cannot find the files.  I assume I have moved files among drives accidentally without Lightroom's knowledge.  I also note that I can control click and try to find individual files.  Is there any way to do this find process for entire folders or drives?  Can I import files from a drive (which is the original source of the lost files) in mass and run them through the import function on Lightroom and return them directly to the file from which they were imported?  Would this create a new thumbnail in Library but duplicate the files in the affected folder and drive?

    Lightroom isn't going to allow you to import images a second time. In the left-hand panel of the library module you can Ctrl-click on a folder and choose to update the folder location or find the missing folder. Have you tried that?

  • Help: there is a way to delete duplicate files in itune?

    every time when im importing music on my itunes is storing the files in the itunes music folder. now i have to backup this folder and the size is more than 80GB. i found that there are many duplications of songs. is there any easy way to delete duplicate files and songs that are unchecked from itunes playlist?
    thank you

    Robert Jacobson has written a duplicate removal script which you can download here:
    http://mysite.verizon.net/teridon/itunesscripts/
    You imply that your duplicates are unchecked. You can create a playlist containing unchecked tracks. This would allow easy manual deletion.
    You need two playlists.
    First create a smart playlist called "checked" containing checked items:
    Uncheck "Match the following rule"
    Check "Match only checked items"
    Live updating checked
    Next create a playlist with the following rule:
    Playlist is not checked.
    Match only checked items not checked.
    Live updating checked
    This second playlist should have all your unchecked tracks in it.
    Then you can use shift del to delete the tracks from you library.

    I Moved to Venezuela From Canada 4 Month ago.      I had some apps on my iphone that I had to pay with my creditcard to download, I used to have the App: Wahtsapp it cost 0.99$ I bought it when I was i Canada and I coould use my creditcard, But I deleted "Whatsapp" but I was not a proble, because  I had a security copy on my computer, But I needed to Update the apps and I couldnot do it, because I had to put my payment imformation, But I actually i have some troubles with my creditcard, so i cant use it.
    is there any other way to change my country without putting my payment information, that way I can update my apps without having to put my payment information.

    You must have a valid form of payment for the app store in the country you are using. Most app stores are separate legal entities to comply with local laws. It is possible to have an account without a credit card, however; see: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT2534

    Restore from a previous backup to reclaim some of it.
    Still want more, Restore in iTunes, setup as New.

  • My documents on my iCloud storage got automatically deleted, is there any possible way to recover them? They're nearly 1GB and very important to me.

    On January 26th, I downloaded iCloud for Windows and logged in using my account which was the same with the one on my Mac. 2 days later, at 3:27 PM January 28th, my 1 GB of documents on my iCloud storage got deleted automatically. I'm saying this because at that time I was sleeping and both my Mac and my Windows PC are turned off, and I'm home alone, besides there was no suspicious login reported to me by Apple.
    So is there any possible way to recover these documents? I'm a teacher and they're very important to me. My Time Machine wasn't enabled so using it is useless.
    Thank you so much for any help.

    Please please help me, if you know how.

    My daughter has had her Razr for about 9 months now.  About two weeks ago she picked up her phone in the morning on her way to school when she noticed two cracks, both starting at the camera lens. One goes completely to the bottom and the other goes sharply to the side. She has never dropped it and me and my husband went over it with a fine tooth comb. We looked under a magnifying glass and could no find any reason for the glass to crack. Not one ding, scratch or bang. Our daughter really takes good care of her stuff, but we still wanted to make sure before we sent it in for repairs. Well we did and we got a reply from Motorola with a picture of the cracks saying this was customer abuse and that it is not covered under warranty. Even though they did not find any physical damage to back it up. Well I e-mailed them back and told them I did a little research and found pages of people having the same problems. Well I did not hear from them until I received a notice from Fed Ex that they were sending the phone back. NOT FIXED!!! I went to look up why and guess what there is no case open any more for the phone. It has been wiped clean. I put in the RMA # it comes back not found, I put in the ID #, the SN# and all comes back not found. Yet a day earlier all the info was there. I know there is a lot more people like me and all of you, but they just don't want to be bothered so they pay to have it fix, just to have it do it again. Unless they have found the problem and only fixing it on a customer pay only set up. I am furious and will not be recommending this phone to anyone. And to think I was considering this phone for my next up grade! NOT!!!!
