Hard Drive Full - Dock doesn't appear

Hi,
Problem with iMac OS X 10.6.8.
When I start my Mac it says that the Disk is Full.
I can log in with any user.
Logging with the administrator account, nothing appears, neither the dock.
Although when I log with a user account, that has Mail selected to open at startup, it opens Mail, but it's not possible to open any other Applications neither the dock appears. Mail doesn't receive or send emails.
I can reboot using the Snow Leopard startup disk and done Repair Disk Utility saying that everything is ok.
I have Daylite Server on this machine which makes automatic backups (I believe the lack of space is because of that).
Could you please give me a help. Is it possible to delete files using terminal starting up via the Snow Leopard installation?
Can I delete files connecting the iMac to a Powerbook via Firewire cable?
Thank you.

Can I delete files connecting the iMac to a Powerbook via Firewire cable?
Yes, I think that's a good way to go. Study the details of connecting via Firewire in the article below.
How to use and troubleshoot FireWire target disk mode
At a guess, it is usually media that fills a person's hard drive, so target that data, for the best effect.

Help! Dock doesn't appear, font type of hour/battery changed

I've just installed iLife '11 and:
1) dock disappear (if I move the mouse over it's not working)
2) font type of data/hour and batter changed
3) icons don't appear (on application/utility etc)
4) system is incredible slow. When I type it freezes for a while.
What should I do? please help me!

I think I understand.
You can also try to reset the PRAM, here are the instructions:
_PRAM RESET_
• Shut down the computer.
• Locate the following keys on the keyboard: Command, Option, P, and R. You will need to hold these keys down simultaneously in step 4.
• Turn on the computer.
• Press and hold the Command-Option-P-R keys. You must press this key combination before the gray screen appears.
• Hold the keys down until the computer restarts and you hear the startup sound for the second time.
• Release the keys.

Pages 5.5: app doesn't appear in dock or tab bar when open

We are seeing this issue on the two macs in our office we tested (mine and a coworkers). To reproduce it:
Open pages
Click "Done" on the open/new document window (or simply close all documents you have open)
Click the desktop to send Pages to the background
If you Cmd+Tab, Pages doesn't appear for us. It also doesn't appear in the dock. Activity Monitor shows the app is still running and using spotlight to "open" it again brings it back to the foreground.
Is anyone else having this same problem?
Pages 5.5 2109

Newly downloaded apps will appear in the column on the left. The images on the right show what is installed on the device. Perphaps the logic has changed slightly with older builds also including what would be synced as well. Untick the box that says Automatically sync new apps and you can choose whether or not to include a new app instead of syncing, then removing.

The icon of faceTime doesn't appear in the dock just space for it

The icon of faceTime doesn't appear in the dock just space for it and i can turn on the faceTime when I click to the space

If the above doesn't work, try a reset.
1. Hold the Sleep and Home button down (together)
2. For about 10 seconds
3. Until you see the Apple logo (very important)
4. Ignore the red slider

Time Machine doesn't appear in Launchpad since upgrading to Mountain Lion

Since upgrading to Mountain Lion (I'm using 10.8.1), Time Machine doesn't appear as one of the apps when using Launchpad. I can't figure out where it "went" but how do I get it back into Launchpad?
It's still in the Applications folder and in my Dock but I'd like to know why it isn't in Launchpad any more?
Thanks.
Sheri

Open Terminal and copy:
sqlite3 ~/Library/Application\ Support/Dock/*.db "DELETE from apps; \
DELETE from groups WHERE title<>''; DELETE from items WHERE rowid>2;" \
&& killall Dock
Go to Applications and drag the apps to Launchpad

Minimize button doesn't appear.

The minimize button doesn't appear in Photoshop CS for Mac, and I don't know how
minimize the program and it's harming my workflow. I'm a new user on Mac.

Thanks for your responses, someone here should have passed for this silly thing.
I mean this is a very basic problem.
I'm using this function 'Hide Photoshop' but it's strange since Photoshop doesn't appear at Dock when I use this.

Mavericks doesn't appear in application folder, how can I get it there?

Mavericks doesn't appear in application folder, how can I get it there?
It is downloaded. I can see it in Launchpad, when I click on it will open en start the installation, but that's not what I want, I want to have the program in the application folder. I hope someone knows how?

Click the installer in Launchbar so it opens, don't proceed with the installation!
Look in your Dock for the installers Application icon.
Command+Click this icon in the Dock
A Finder window should appear with the installer selected, you can 'Get Info' on that item to see the full file path to work out where it is, or enable the 'Path bar' in Finder's view menu, that also shows the folder path to the selected item.
If you are hoping to install 10.9 on another Mac you may find it is best to create a bootable installer on a USB disk…

Or use Apple's instructions…

App folder in the dock doesn't contain all the apps in the main Applications folder

I have noticed recently that the App folder in the dock doesn't contain all the apps in the main Applications folder (the correct one under Macintosh HD).
This occurs whether in list, grid, automatic or whatever.
I've removed the apps folder from the dock and dragged in the current one and yet it doesn't show all the apps from the source folder.
Any ideas on why this is happening or how I can fix it?
There are 55 items in the Apps folder but only 51 are shown in the folder located in the dock.
If I drag it over (as per normal operation), all 55 should appear right?
Is there a limit on how many can be displayed?
Can the grid spacing/icon size be changed to fit them all in if that's the case?
Just dunno why this is happening???
Cheers

Not sure this is what you want, but if you are an admin user, try this instead. Right-click on /Applications (Applications in the hard drive icon folder, the root folder, not Applications in your user) and select Make Alias, then drag that alias into the Dock to the right of or below the divider (the Trash icon is in that area.) Your Applications will now open from that alias in the Dock. The "original" alias will remain in that location, while creating a new Applications folder in the Dock. I have done this for my home folder, Utilities, and Downloads as well.

Airplay option doesn't appear on iPhone; speakers not available from iMac

I have an iMac running Yosemite 10.10.2, an iPhone running 8.1.3, the Bang & Olufsen A8 speakers & iPad dock and Telstra's Netgear Cable Home Network gateway CG3100D–2BPAUS.
When I remove the iPhone from the dock it used to bring the AirPlay icon into view on the screen, but it suddenly stopped appearing.
I would also like to be able to stream directly from online radio via the iMac to the A8, leaving the iPhone free for telephone calls! But it seems that when AirPlay doesn't appear on the iPhone, the A8 also doesn't appear as a speaker output option on the iMac.
I have had a lot of problems with this A8 and find online many users also dissatisfied: seems unpredictable and intermittent. Have had network dropouts also but that is okay since restarting modem, A8, iMac and iPhone all together. Have searched endlessly but can't find instructions on how to enable or troubleshoot AirPlay.

Thanks, degree, I should have mentioned I've checked that page. The only bit I'm not sure of is that the page on recommended settings for routers wants the 2.4GHz channel width set to 20MHz and the 5GHz channel set to both 20 and 40MHz, but my router seems to have only one option: "Bandwidth: 20Mhz" or Bandwidth: 40Mhz". Everything else seems to be compliant.
I moved the speakers/dock into the same room as the router and iMac, in the adjacent corner so shouldn't interfere.

Why has my monitor suddenly begun to have a moiré pattern all over – it is even showing up on my icons on the dock? It appears to be very thin bright green vertical lines. I have a 2008 iMac which is running 10.6.8. What does this mean?

Why has my monitor suddenly begun to have a moiré pattern all over – it is even showing up on my icons on the dock? It appears to be very thin bright green vertical lines. I have a 2007 iMac which is running 10.6.8. What does this mean? I've attached some screen shots below.
Also experiencing some funky issues with my wireless keyboard. With new batteries, it will just stop functioning. Certain keys intermittently won't work. Also the fans go on as soon as I turn the computer on - some times they stay on and sometimes they don't. Ever since upgrading the operating system - I've been having many issues with this iMac. Not happy. Any answers out there?

Thanks for your reply LexSchellings, There is no disc in the drive and I went through the suggestions you put forward on the phone with Apple support without any luck. I can put a disc in but it pops straight back out again without registering on finder.
The idea of using an external drive was to enable me to avoid the cost and loss of productivity whilst machine in repair... if I have to take it in to get the old drive removed than I might as well have a new internal drive put in, although I do worry about the reliability of these apple drives given my experience with this one coupled with my limited online research ... on line forums seem to be full of people with the same problem (although perhaps searching such forums is bound to make it seem a common problem as users with perfectly working machines are less likely to post (?)) Your reply suggests that no external drive will work whilst the existing drive is in place.
As a postscript: I do realise that this is a user forum ...my secondary question was asking if anyone knows how to put forward a case/complaint to Apple... I can't find a link on the support page that would enable me to do so and I was wondering if anyone on this user forum had any ideas/experience..

(I think the daughter got he better end of the deal!) I believe if you change the password and user id one of the devices it will stop that from occurring. But I'm not the one to tell you how to do it; someone like "Illaass" (Illaass seems to know how to correct / fix almost anything!) will know how if you don't. Just look for the "cat" icon.

Can't delete file from desktop. Can't get info. Doesn't appear in ls -a. What?

Hi folks,
I file has appeared on my desktop. I believe it's a temp file created while downloading something in Safari. When I try to delete it, I get "The item x can't be moved to the trash because it can't be deleted":
I tried right click > Get Info, and nothing happens (the info dialog does not appear).
I tried ls -al on my desktop, and the file doesn't appear in the list:
How do I get rid of this thing? What is it?

Weird. I guess if this were happening to me, I would see if the thing is still there after a reboot. If it is still there, I would boot with command-R and use Disk Utility to verify and repair the disk (not permissions).
The file name indicates you were downloading something to run under windows. Do you have windows?
