jithere is no any command sort of rolback to recover archivelog,if you have backup of archivelog then you can restore
archivelog from this archivelog backupset.

My 2 TB Time Capsule's memory is full because it will not automatically delete old files as it is supposed to, so it is giving me zero backup of my two computers now. How can this be fixed so my Time Capsule deletes the old data and saves the new?

My 2 TB Time Capsule’s memory is full because it will notautomatically delete old files as it is supposed to, so it is giving me zerobackup of my two computers now. How can this be fixed so my Time Capsule deletes the old data and savesthe new?
Neither my local computer consultant nor I have been ableto change any of the settings in Time Machine to correct this problem. Working with the choices in the TimeMachine, there does not appear that there is any way to change the frequency ofthe backups either, so, after a year has elapsed, the time capsule is full, andmy only choice appears to be to erase all the current data on the Time Capsuleand start over, something that I do not want to at all let alone repeat on anannual basis. My questions are:
What can be done to have my Time Capsule delete old filesas it is supposed to do, so it has memory available to allow my computers toback up?
Is this a software problem that can be fixed online or isdoes this require a mechanical fix of defective hardware?

How much data is being backed-up from each Mac? (see what's shown for Estimated size of full backup under the exclusions box in Time Machine Prefs > Options).
Is there any other data on your Time Capsule, besides the backups?
Most likely, there just isn't room. Time Machine may be trying to do a very large (or full) backup of one or both Macs, and can't. Since it won't ever delete the most recent backup, there has to be enough room for one full backup plus whatever it's trying to back up now, plus 20% (for workspace).
Also see #C4 in Time Machine - Troubleshooting for more details.

Can I delete all files and users (including admin account) without re-installing SL?

I have a 1st generation Macbook Air, running Snow Leopard 10.6.8. Just bought myself a new MBA, want to sell the old one (privately, not soliciting here).
The original install disks were Leopard. I bought a family pack SL and upgraded the MBA at that point. Earlier this year I sold my old Mac Mini (when I upgraded) and included the SL install disks with that sale (stupid of me).
Now I want to sell the old MBA. Ideally, I'd have a clean install on SL on it, minus all previous files and accounts. I've done that before when selling old computers, reformatted / erased the HD, then reinstalled the OS. But I don't have the SL disk anymore, and I don't really want to pay for it just to prep this notebook for sale.
AFAICT, my options are:
wipe the HD and reinstall Leopard (the only OSX disks I have). Whoever buys it from me would need to upgrade to SL themselves, and from there to Lion if they want.
somehow try to delete all files and users without touching the current install of SL. I'm not terribly worried about security of what little information is on the MBA (nothing important to me), so I don't mind trashing files and then emptying trash instead of wiping the HD block by block.
Any ideas for how to do #2? I can trash all files/folders under /user, uninstall all applications and delete their folders from Library, uninstall all browsers except Safari and wipe the history from that...
Is there other stuff I should be deleting? plist files, maybe? I'm leery of messing around too much and disrupting the install of the underlying OS.
Can I also delete the admin account (or rename it "admin" with a generic default password?)?
Any other suggestions? Thanks.

Trashing files you have created is relatively easy. Getting rid of an account is a bit harder. Trashing the .plist files, etc., that may contain personal info is a lot harder, and there is always the risk that you will miss something.
Best, and easiest, and customary, is to do option #1 - wipe the drive and re-install the original OS from the original disk set. The receiver of the machine can then decide which OS they want to upgrade it to, and purchse accordingly.
The original disk set for that machine should be included with it when it is sold.

Memory is supposedly Full, deleted some files, and now I can't open Itunes.

I have a Macbook Pro but I don't play any games, I've never downloaded movies, but I do download music approx. 16GB and pictures...though not sure how to see how much memory these take up. Recently I've had trouble because my computer keeps notifying me that there is no space on the startup disk...which I can't understand why because I don't really have many files or programs on my computer. I've been deleting old files or things I don't really use and now my Itunes won't open saying there's an error (13014). So I have several questions, what is the best way to make space on the "startup disk" whatever that means, and how can I fix the error that's preventing me from accessing itunes? I have a feeling that my pictures might be taking up a lot of the space, how do I know when a single picture is too large and how could I condense them? Also when the memory gets full, my Microsoft Word starts acting all funky, is it because of the full memory? Thanks for your time:)

Just as a matter of info you have posted in the MacBook Pro (Late 2008 and 2009) > Using your MacBook Pro (Late 2008 and 2009) forums. Not that your issue matters matters so much where it's posted but in the future you would want to post where users have similar hardware as you do, MacBook Pro (Original)
http://discussions.apple.com/category.jspa?categoryID=250
In any case as F Shippey suggests you may have directory issues. If Disk Utility cannot repair the directory then you may need a stronger disk utility like DiskWarrior to rebuild the directory.

Help, I deleted some files and then secure empty trashed it.

I accidently deleted important files, and also secure empty trash, is there any way to recover those files?

no, unless you have a backup.

Manual delete old files before package installation?

This is more a general or best practice question.
I installed a python program (gnoduino) manually some time ago using:
python setup.py build install
I found out that this program is available via AUR and it would be comfortable to use the AUR version.
So what should I do now. Manually delete everything that the python installer installed, with hope not to forget anything. And after that install via AUR?
Or leave it installed and start the install process via AUR and "overwrite" the old files?
In the first case: How do I delete everything?
whereis gnoduino
gnoduino: /usr/bin/gnoduino /usr/share/gnoduino /usr/share/man/man1/gnoduino.1
And I know that the python files reside in "/usr/lib/python2.7/site-packages/gnoduino".
Delete these files and I'm fine?

Best practice would be to rebuild that package and uninstall, or use the built but not installed copy to locate and remove the files.
Bad practice and also my method would be to install with the -f flag and overwrite it.
However this could lead to breakage and more work if it goes wrong.

Delete old files on my video ipod

I am a new ipod user and have a video ipod. I have been downloading podcasts to my ipod for a week or so. Even though in my itunes I keep only the newest episodes, my ipod retains all previous episodes. However, when I go to my ipod in the source list, all the podcast items are de-highlighted and I can not select or delete.
Can someone point me to a way to delete old files on my ipod?
Thanks!

Try this:
In iTunes click on "Podcast", you don't need to have your iPod connected.
Highlight the file you want to delete and press the DELETE key on your keyboard. It will ask if you want to delete the file. If you want to just remove it from your iPod and want to keep the original file on your computer select "Keep Files". If you want to remove from both, select "Move to crcycle bin". This is for PC. If you use a Mac the wording might be slightly different but the principle should be the same.
When you're all done deleting, connect your iPod and the podcasts will be automatically removed from your iPod.
Hope it helps.

HT201364 Hello, I want to upgrade to OS X Mavericks but it keeps telling me to free up space on my start up disk. I deleted many files and i still cannot download it. What do I do delete everything?

Hello, I want to upgrade to OS X Mavericks but it keeps telling me to free up space on my start up disk. I deleted many files and I still cannot download it. What do I do delete everything? I do not even know how to check for available space on my laptop...I know, I know. Anyone help me out if you can =)

Freeing Up Space on The Hard Drive
1. See Lion/Mountain Lion/Mavericks' Storage Display.
2. You can remove data from your Home folder except for the /Home/Library/ folder.
3. Visit The XLab FAQs and read the FAQ on freeing up space on your hard drive.
4. Also see Freeing space on your Mac OS X startup disk.
5. See Where did my Disk Space go?.
6. See The Storage Display.
You must Empty the Trash in order to recover the space they occupied on the hard drive.
You should consider replacing the drive with a larger one. Check out OWC for drives, tutorials, and toolkits.
Try using OmniDiskSweeper 1.8 or GrandPerspective to search your drive for large files and where they are located.
You need at least 12 GBs of free space to install Mavericks plus another 6 GBs for the download.
Select your HDD icon. Press COMMAND-I to open the Get Info window. In the upper most panel you will see the information displayed: Capacity, Available, and Used. You want to know what's Available.

Time Machine SparseDisk Fails to Delete Old Files

I'm running Time Machine on the new 7.3.1 patch and have finally filled the drive. At first everything was going smoothly until I realized that Time Machine is not deleting old files to make room for new ones.
I found this out when I realized Time Machine stop backing up to it because the drive is full. Why is the sparsedisk not getting smaller or making room for newer backups?
Is it because this feature is unsupported?

Time Machine will delete old backups, if it can. So something must be wrong. See #C4 in Time Machine - Troubleshooting.
If nothing there helps, a clue may be lurking in your logs. Use the widget in #A1 of Time Machine - Troubleshooting to display the backup messages from your logs. Locate the backup in question, then copy and post all the messages here.

How do I get Time Machine to delete old files?

On threads for earlier operating systems I've seen similar questions, and it seems Apple hasn't resolved the problem that although Time Machine says it will delete old files when the disc is full, it doesn't do it, even though my hard drive has only ~300 GB of files on it and my external hard drive has 1.5 T, it does nothing to delete old files automatically. This hasn't always been the case. The first few entries were deleted awhile back, freeing space, but that has stopped happening. Any suggestions? Do I have to start with a fresh external hard drive?

Need Help-SOA 11g File Adapter unable to delete input file and its crashing

Hi All
Please find the details below:
1. We have created a simple SOA composite to Read file from an input directory, archive the file in an archive directory using Inbound File Adapter Read
and then use Outbound File Adapter Write to move the file to a output directory.
2. File Adapter needs to delete the file after successful read/retrieval.
3. We are using the "Use Trigger File" for invoking the file adapter. This is a new feature in SOA 11g
4. Also we are using the option of reading the file as an attachment as we are not doing any transformation in the composite
Issue Details_
1. When the trigger file is put in the input directory for the first time, the File Adapter reads the file, archives it and moves it to the output directory
2. However it does not delete the input file from the input directory and raises Fatal Exception mentioned below:
[*2011-01-12T16:55:48.639+05:30] [soa_server1] [WARNING] [] [oracle.soa.adapter] [tid: weblogic.work.j2ee.J2EEWorkManager$WorkWithListener@19c243d]*

Hi,
Using the file adapter, you can poll from multilple locations...
Keep the following property in your .jca file
<property name="DirectorySeparator" value="," />
While giving the path in File Adapter configuration, keep comma and give the next location....then the file will be picked up from the locations you gave....
Hope this helps...
Thanks,

Downloaded latest firefox beta and it didnt work also removed all my files from old fire fox how can I retreave my old files and that they work

See http://kb.mozillazine.org/Testing_pre-release_versions
The Firefox 4.0 beta version should have installed in a separate program folder, so your old setup should still be there. 
See:
http://kb.mozillazine.org/Installation_directory
If you do want to use the 4.0 beta version then you should create a new profile for that version.
