Remove item from dock sound keeps playing

So I finally got OSX Lion; I waited for 10.7.1 so I could avoid the first batch of issues.
In short, my thoughts
The NICE: Snappier
The BAD: Takes up more hard drive space, eats more RAM, Resume (aka start up's) are a pain and messy and can't be removed. takes a lot of configuration to get it like Snow Leopard, and even then, only with help of jitouch could I get things the way I liked them. Also when you click delete, or choose to delete a file on itunes, it neither move the file to trash nor give you the option to move the file to trash, you have to manually get and remove the file.
The Neutral: A bunch of Unecissary New Features, New iCal and Email that don't add anything to it, and allow no way to revert.
Alright so My issue. After doing a clean install of lion, setting everything back up etc.
I keep hearing this swooshing sound. like when you have an item on the dock and you removing, how it does that *Swoop* or *swoosh* it keeps playing at random times, like 2-3 times per hour? or more, i'm not sure. It kind of ***** though when im watching a movie and i hear *swoop* *swoosh*
I haven't installed any other programs yet, or done much of anything, but while watching a movie it gets annoying. I have resume off (or the thing that saves all the multiple versions of the same thing, i turned it off from general settings). May that be whats causing it? does anyone know what happening or what is causing it?
EDIT:
Someone somewhere else said it is
iChat contact signs off.
I hope thats it, I don't have my computer on me, can anyone confirm? I did a clean install btw.

I found that in my case it was Messages. It was the sound of my contacts signing in and out. once i checked the alerts prefrences in Messages, the sounds stopped.

Problem: The 'remove item from dock' sound keeps playing.

Hello guys,
I have a new MacBookPro. I haven't done so much with it. I have the last OS X Version 10.8.2. Since last week I don´t know how I keep listening the sound that dock does when an item is being removed. It sounds like Swoosh or Swoop. The sounds repeats like 7 times per hour. Sometimes I am watching a movie, or working with WORD, or sometimes I am not even touching anything and it always sounds. It is so anoying. I need help. Thanks for the time and any sugestion.

Unable to add or remove items from dock

First, sorry if this is a duplicate post - I did a number of searches and came up with lots of "frozen dock" and other bugs that weren't this one. There seemed to be pages and pages and after several I just gave up and posted myself.
For the past few weeks I have noticed that I have been unable to remove any items from the dock. It is not that I get an error message when I try to remove them, they just don't budge.
If an item is in the doc and the program is active, and I ctrl-click on the item - there is no longer a "Remove from dock" option.
Further if a program is in the doc only because it is running and is not "always there", the ctrl-click will no longer give the "Keep in dock" option either.
The lack of error message almost makes me think I have set some "feature" without realizing it - rather than encountering a bug.
However, I would very much like it to go away anyway
Anyone have any ideas?
Any help would be greatly appreciated,
Will

It sounds like you might have the 'contents-immutable' setting enabled on your "Dock". The only GUI available to an OS X client machine to adjust this setting is under "Parental Controls" in the "Accounts" pref pane - if your account is listed there as "managed", then it's possible that it may have become activated, in which case it should be possible to log out of the account, then in to an "admin" account and change the setting from there.
Unlike "parental controls" which manage the "Dock" through 'mcx_settings', it is also possible to set the property directly in the "com.apple.dock.plist" file in the user's "~/Library/Preferences" folder. Usually this wouldn't be expected to happen by accident - third party software is often involved when hidden settings are suddenly found to have been enabled.
If 'contents-immutable' has been set in the ".plist" file, one way to get rid of it is to move the "com.apple.dock.plist" file out of the "~/Library/preferences" folder, logging out and back in. The "Dock" will revert to default settings so it will be necessary to reconfigure it again. Alternatively, try opening "/Applications" > "Utilities" > "Terminal.app" and entering these commands:<pre>defaults delete com.apple.dock contents-immutable
osascript -e 'tell application "Dock" to quit'</pre>

How can i remove items from list that have been deleted when i click on them it keeps showing empty

how can i remove items from the list that have been deleted when i click on them it keeps showing folder empty

Actually, Reader SHOULD keep showing documents that no longer exist, I disagree. It's no big deal, and people will quickly realise why they can't open the file. They open more files, the old ones move off.
The REASON why it should not check is that checking whether a file exists can take a long time when things aren't good. For instance if a file server goes down, or a memory card is unplugged. That in turn would mean delays opening the File menu, and I've seen some software that can sit there for several minutes. That would really give people something of which to complain...

You need 3.54 GB of available space to download Mac OS X 10.7. Remove items from your startup disk to increase available space.

i recently upgraded my memory to 2gb to support download of lion. i am now receiving this message when i try to download lion:

Hi, Rick.
Your MacBook's hard drive is too full to accommodate Lion. How big is your hard drive, and how much space remains available on it?
It sounds as if you may be confusing RAM with hard drive space.
Check out this article on the subject:
http://www.ehow.com/about_5452977_computer-memory-vs-storage.html
It is generally recommended to keep a minimum of 15% of the total capacity of your hard drive as available space for smooth operation of your Mac.

How do you remove items from the assets panel that are duplicated?

How do you remove items from the assets panel that are duplicated?

If you add an item to a slideshow, you'll usually see 2 entries for that image in the assets panel - one represents the thumbnail, and the other represents the larger 'hero' image.
It sounds like you may have added the same image to your slideshow twice. You can select one of the hero images or thumbnail images in your slideshow and use the delete key to remove it. Then the extra 2 entries in the assets panel should disappear.

Removing Items from a TextArea/Pane Component

Hi All,
I have a question about text containers. Basically I'm reading Strings from a file and I'm displaying them inside a JTextArea. I'm adding new Strings to the JTextArea using it's append() method. Is there a way to limit how much stuff should the JTextArea hold ? After a while my application crashes with the following message:
java.lang.OutOfMemoryError
<<no stack trace available>>
Exception in thread "main"
This is because so much stuff got accumulated in the JTextArea that it eats up all available memory and the app crashes. My question is; is there a way I can remove items from the JTextArea ? Or is there a way to limit the size/number of Stings it can hold ? Or should I be using something else instead of the JTextArea ? Thanks in advance...
-Pete

int size = textArea.getDocument().getLength();
gives the total number of bytes in the text area. You can then use:
textArea.replaceRange("", 0, 80);
to remove 80 characters from the start of the text area. Or to remove the first line from the text area use:
int start = textArea.getLineStartOffset(0);
int end = textArea.getLineEndOffset(0);
textArea.replaceRange("", start, end);
Design your own routine to keep the text area at a reasonable size.

You should never, EVER let a conputer hard drive get completely full, EVER!
With Macs and OS X, you shouldn't let the hard drive get below 15 GBs or less of free data space.
If it does, it's time for some hard drive housecleaning.
Follow some of my tips for cleaning out, deleting and archiving data from your Mac's internal hard drive.
Have you emptied your Mac's Trash icon in the Dock?
If you use iPhoto, iPhoto has its own trash that needs to be emptied, also.
If you store images in other locations other than iPhoto, then you will have to weed through these to determine what to archive and what to delete.
If you use Apple Mail app, Apple Mail also has its own trash area that needs to be emptied, too!
Delete any old or no longer needed emails and/or archive to disc, flash drives or external hard drive, older emails you want to save.
Look through your other Mailboxes and other Mail categories to see If there is other mail you can archive and/or delete.
Other things you can do to gain space.
Once you have around 15 GBs regained, do a search, download and install OmniDisk Sweeper.
This app will help you locate files that you can move/archive and/or delete from your system.
STAY AWAY FROM DELETING ANY FILES FROM OS X SYSTEM FOLDER!
Look through your Documents folder and delete any type of old useless type files like "Read Me" type files.
Again, archive to disc, flash drives, ext. hard drives or delete any old documents you no longer use or immediately need.
Look in your Applications folder, if you have applications you haven't used in a long time, if the app doesn't have a dedicated uninstaller, then you can simply drag it into the OS X Trash icon. IF the application has an uninstaller app, then use it to completely delete the app from your Mac.
Download an app called OnyX for your version of OS X.
When you install and launch it, let it do its initial automatic tests, then go to the cleaning and maintenance tabs and run the maintenance tabs that let OnyX clean out all web browser cache files, web browser histories, system cache files, delete old error log files.
Typically, iTunes and iPhoto libraries are the biggest users of HD space.
move these files/data off of your internal drive to the external hard drive and deleted off of the internal hard drive.
If you have any other large folders of personal data or projects, these should be archived or moved, also, to the optical discs, flash drives or external hard drive and then either archived to disc and/or deleted off your internal hard drive.
Good Luck!

One-to-many relationship - remove item from collection problem

The ArrayCollection keeps folders tree - subtree of folder is kept in children property and is also ArrayCollection. This collection is fed by 'folders' custom assembler defined like this:
Assembler works with adding and deleting top level objects of collection.
Also, when I add new object to children property LCDS issues createItem for new object and then updateItem for children property of parent so everything is fine - new object is persisted and relationship is correct.
When I remove item from children collection ONLY updateItem on assembler is issued, so object is not deleted from repository. Why this managed reletionship works for adding new object to children collection but doesnt work for deleting?

How can we remove items from the VF04 list?

We have a long list of items in VF04 that, for various reasons (some process related, some due to errors), are not to be billed. We have looked at applying filters to the list but there is nothing really suitable to hide these individual documents e.g. we could filter out some dates where none of the items on that date are to be billed but other dates have a mix of items we want to bill and others we don't.
I have done a search of this forum but didn't find a previous topic with a quick and simple method to remove items from the list .
Is there a method, other than billing them or sorting each issue individually, to permanently remove individual documents from the VF04 list?
Thanks in advance for any help.
David

Hi,
David,
Download a list of Pending delivers doc form VF04.
Paste the list in T.Code : VL09 (Delivery reversal) and reverse the delivery.
Then go to T.Code: VL06G Select the list of deliveries that has been reversed, select/delete all un- wanted deliveries.
This way you can remove all unwanted pending deliveries forn Billing due list (VF04).
Thanks & Regards,
R.Janakiraman
