PcP2 suddenly dies, can't delete failed Xgrid jobs

Hi,
I have an XServe running 10.6.7 with Podcast Producer and XGrid set up and, until lately, working.
A user submitted a job via Podcast Transfer and the job died about 85% through the job. All jobs after that fail almost immediately. I see the six last jobs in the XGrid Admin (three from a while back that submitted successfully, the bad job, and two tests since then). I can't delete any of the jobs in the XGrid Admin.
I have restarted the services, the server, mucked about in the sqlite database, but with no luck.
Any ideas how to clean this stuff out?
Thanks,
Miles

To add to this, I can run the Mandelbrot tool and see the jobs being processed by the XGrid, but anything new from PcP fails.

Can't Delete Oracle Database Job

i created an oracle database job and some of them is only a sample test job. i need to delete them but the delete option is not enabled. it looks like all the other oracle database job that i created can't be deleted. please advise thanks.

it does not have. i guess a dependencies should not cause the problem because other jobs that does have dependencies can be deleted. it is only the oracle database job that can't be deleted. thanks.

Can I delete failed save files?

My overall goal is to take my higher resolution FCPX project and export it as a web playable smaller movie. I tried export movie, but ran into the problem I'm going to ask about. Next up I'll try exporting using Compressor Settings, that'll probably achieve what I want.
So, as I went through the export movie steps, expecting to see something that would ask me about the dimensions of the movie (it never did ask), I let it go ahead and do its thing. After clicking Save I just saw the cursor spinning, so I went to bed.
This morning I found that it has filled my drive, and there were 14GBs of High Quality Media files. I had to force quit FCPX.
Now I have the original project, with a file structure of Final Cut Events/eventname/Original Media, etc, and also Final Cut Projects/New Project/Render Files/Thumbnail Media/ and High Quality Media and Peaks Data too.
Deleting All Render files for the event doesn't remove those files. Is there a built in way to delete the failed-save files, or can I safely manually delete the files? At least the 14GB of high quality ones?

I believe those folders were made during the export stage, certainly the "New Project" name is what I let it use. The Final Cut Events folders do seem to have the original media, so I'll give it a try deleting the high quality export files.
Thanks for the encouragement!

All of a sudden I can't delete mail!

This morning I deleted large amounts of trash and junk mail. Now when I try to delete new e-mails I get the message: "The message XXXX could not be moved to the mailbox “Trash — POP Account” The operation couldn't be completed. File exists."
Any suggestions on how to fix this?
Thank you.

Quit Mail. Force quit if necessary.
Back up all data. That means you know you can restore the Mail database, no matter what happens.
Triple-click anywhere in the line below on this page to select it:
~/Library/Mail/V2/MailData
Copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C. In the Finder, select
Go ▹ Go to Folder
from the menu bar. Paste into the box that opens (command-V), then press return.
A folder window will open. Inside it there should be files with names as follows:
Envelope Index
ExternalUpdates.storedata
Move those files to the Desktop, leaving the window open. Other files in the folder may have longer names that begin as above. Move those files, if any, to the Trash.
Log out and log back in. Relaunch Mail. It should prompt you to re-import your messages. You may get a warning that the index is damaged and that Mail has to quit. Click OK.
Test. If Mail now works as expected, you can delete the files you moved to the Desktop. Otherwise, post your results.

Pinter won't print; can't cancel failed print job; cannot print anything

If I try to cancel a print job, the printer dialog box claims the print job is being deleted, but it never is. The only nway I can get rid of the message and clean up the print queue is to reinstall the printer. This is absurd. HP's help is anything but. What is the problem. I have a Deklsjet 1660.

Can't delete effects, layers or anything

All of a sudden I can't delete anything. Dumped the only motion pref I could find and no dif. Why so much unstable Apple software??
Motion 1.01
OS 10.4.3
Plenty of RAM
Brad

Yes, I found if the timeline tab isn't pulled away it works. So much for floating boxes tho esp. when you need the viewing room. Just more Apple instability.

Can't delete photos using Image Capture

I just upgraded from an iPhone4 to 5s....all of a sudden I can't delete photos using Image Capture like I used to. The "delete" menu item is grayed out. The "delete after import" checkbox in the lower right is available, but I don't need to download all of these photos videos. I poked around in the iPhone settings but didn't see anything which seems to control this.

Hey guys, I had the same problem on iOS 8.0.2, I couldn't delete any pictures from my Mac neither in Image Capture nor in iPhoto. I've just figured out how to resolve this. You have to disable iCloud Photo Library (Beta) under Settings > Photos & Camera. Since it seems to be an iOS 8 related issue, I'm not sure if I am referring to the same problem as in the original post but I thought I'll let you know anyway.

Can't delete emails from "read only" Mail account

I am trying to delete emails to clear hard drive space.
On one of my computer's accounts (ONLY one), the mailboxes have the heading "read only", and I can't delete emails. I don't remember selecting this setting, and I can't find it anywhere.
Can someone please point me in the right direction--how do I turn off the "read only" status of the InBox? And--is that why I can't delete emails??
Thank you!

I've had trouble with JavaMail starting on July 21st. I've used the same code for months, but all of a sudden, I can't delete messages from Gmail using the DELETED flag. I open the folder as READ_WRITE, grab the messages from the folder, set the DELETED flag, double check to make sure the DELETED flag was set, then close the folder (setting EXPUNGE to TRUE). Nothing happens. No exception is thrown or message is given, and no messages get deleted from the inbox (they just remain sitting there). I've tried calling the EXPUNGE method manually after setting the DELETED flag, but then it complained that the underlying implementation could not execute the method because the message was READ ONLY!!! I'm out of ideas. I've posted on Google's forums, but every other .NET and command terminal commands seem to still be working. I'm wondering if Gmail altered their configuration to become more compliant with the IMAP protocol, and JavaMail (or its underlying implementation) is still not 100% compliant?
Thanks for your consideration.

Mail-gmail can't delete emails

Hi,
I use Mail with gmail. After lots of configuration, now it finally works fine... (not with the suggested configs on gmail help page...) But I was looking for something the other day and typed a keyword in Mail's search field and I surprisingly found tons of emails from March and April. I deleted them back then I guess, but now they are there, but not the actual emails, when I click on them, there is nothing in the text field, they are not in any of the mailboxes, so only the email's sender, subject, date sent in the upper window... I cannot delete these. I tried the Rebuild command, used Onyx, no help... How can I get rid of them?
Thanks,
Qtty

I was backing up my iPhone and importing photos onto iPhoto at the same time , then suddenly it says no more space available (i had 48GB before i do this and now i have 18GB) i can't find the back up or the photo anywhere , how can i delete them ?

Empty the Trash if you haven't already done so. If you use iPhoto, empty its internal Trash first:
iPhoto ▹ Empty Trash
Do the same in other applications, such as Aperture, that have an internal Trash feature. Then reboot. That will temporarily free up some space.
According to Apple documentation, you need at least 9 GB of available space on the startup volume (as shown in the Finder Info window) for normal operation. You also need enough space left over to allow for growth of the data. There is little or no performance advantage to having more available space than the minimum Apple recommends. Available storage space that you'll never use is wasted space.
When Time Machine backs up a portable Mac, some of the free space will be used to make local snapshots, which are backup copies of recently deleted files. The space occupied by local snapshots is reported as available by the Finder, and should be considered as such. In the Storage display of System Information, local snapshots are shown asBackups. The snapshots are automatically deleted when they expire or when free space falls below a certain level. You ordinarily don't need to, and should not, delete local snapshots yourself. If you followed bad advice to disable local snapshots by running a shell command, you may have ended up with a lot of data in the Other category. Reboot and it should go away.
See this support article for some simple ways to free up storage space.
You can more effectively use a tool such as OmniDiskSweeper (ODS) to explore the volume and find out what's taking up the space. You can also delete files with it, but don't do that unless you're sure that you know what you're deleting and that all data is safely backed up. That means you have multiple backups, not just one.
Deleting files inside an iPhoto or Aperture library will corrupt the library. Any changes to a photo library must be made from within the application that created it. The same goes for Mail files.
Proceed further only if the problem isn't solved by the above steps.
ODS can't see the whole filesystem when you run it just by double-clicking; it only sees files that you have permission to read. To see everything, you have to run it as root.
Back up all data now.
If you have more than one user account, make sure you're logged in as an administrator. The administrator account is the one that was created automatically when you first set up the computer.
Install ODS in the Applications folder as usual. Quit it if it's running.
Triple-click anywhere in the line of text below on this page to select it, then copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C:
sudo /Applications/OmniDiskSweeper.app/Contents/MacOS/OmniDiskSweeper
Launch the built-in Terminal application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid.
Paste into the Terminal window (command-V). You'll be prompted for your login password, which won't be displayed when you type it. You may get a one-time warning to be careful. If you see a message that your username "is not in the sudoers file," then you're not logged in as an administrator.
The application window will open, eventually showing all files in all folders, sorted by size with the largest at the top. It may take a few minutes for ODS to finish scanning.
I don't recommend that you make a habit of doing this. Don't delete anything while running ODS as root. If something needs to be deleted, make sure you know what it is and how it got there, and then delete it by other, safer, means. When in doubt, leave it alone or ask for guidance.
When you're done with ODS, quit it and also quit Terminal.

Trying to use a new, larger external hard drive for my Time Machine backup. However, every time I start the backup, it gets started then fails. And, I can't delete the few files that did save on the external. Sort of a catch 22. Any ideas?

Is it a USB hard drive? USB hard drives have the problem of not giving full speed if they are hooked up on the same bus as keyboards and mice. Double check your profiler to make sure that is not a problem. If it is Firewire, make sure there aren't other firewire devices in use at the same time. I recommend not only keeping a Time Machine backup, but also a clone, and if you do use Time Machine, to make sure the Time Machine drive or partition is at least twice the size of the original drive.
