  • After i empty trash (the secure empty doesn't work either), the system does not reclaim the free space.

    After i empty trash (the secure empty doesn't work either), the system does not reclaim the free space.
    I need to run the erase free space option from the disk utility every time...which is really annoying and time consuming.
    Any ideas how to solve this?
    Thanks in advance =)

    There is a thing in iPhoto whereby the first time you delete a photo it asks if you want to delete or just remove from the album, something like that.  Unfortunately it is one of these things with a "don't ask me again" checkbox.  Now, "deleting" photos only removes them from the album they are in.  To actually trash them I must then go to "all photos" and find them, to send them to the trash.   To help find them, what I do is rename them zzz or something, so sorting them will get them to the bottom of my collection.  Just maybe your photos are still lurking around?

  • I have quicktime pro and it does NOT have the screen record mode that Quicktime is suppose to have.  Can I uninstall it and go back to an older version that would have screen recording?  If so, how?  Step by step needed.  Thank you for your time.

    Did you remove Quicktime X?
    On a normal install Quicktime 7 is installed in the Utilities folder and Quicktime Pro in the main Applications folder.
    You will need to reinstall OS X to get Quicktime X back if you have deleted it.
    I notice yor profile says 10.5.8. Quicktime X is only available on 10.6 and above.

  • How can I uninstall FF4 and go back to FF3.x?

    ''Duplicate post, continue here - [https://support.mozilla.com/en-US/questions/814655]''
    I have nothing but constant issues with video not running, my Google Analytics page freezing up, Facebook lagging, and other weird and annoying garbage with Firefox 4 that I never had with previous versions. Not to mention that it seems to use 3 times as much memory as the older versions. I just want to uninstall it and go back to 3. And if I can't do this I'm going to Chrome.

    To downgrade to Firefox 3.6 first uninstall Firefox 4, but do not select the option to "Remove my Firefox personal data". If you select that option it will delete your bookmarks, passwords and other user data.
    You can then install the latest version of Firefox 3.6 available from http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all-older.html - it will automatically use your current bookmarks, passwords etc.
    To avoid possible problems with downgrading, I recommend going to your profile folder and deleting the following files if they exist - extensions.cache, extensions.rdf, extensions.ini, extensions.sqlite and localstore.rdf. Deleting these files will force Firefox to rebuild the list of installed extensions, checking their compatibility, and reset toolbar customizations.

  • My iPad free space was shrinking.  Previously I did an iOS upgrade and got more free space so I tried a restore and the same thing happened.  Do I have a setting wrong?

    My iPad free space was shrinking.  Previously I did an iOS upgrade and got more free space so I tried a restore and the same thing happened.  Do I have a setting wrong?  There was a significant change from 4.3 GB to now 10.2 GB.  I still have all the same apps, photos, songs, etc.  So what's up?  Why does my space not recover after I delete things?

    This is what I did to resolve the issue.  First I did a simple Reset (Home and on/off until the Apple logo appears) and it didn't help.  Then I did a Restore with a reload from the backup and that also accomplished nothing.  Then, I did a Restore as new with NO reload from backup and that resolved my issue.
    IF you choose to try the same thing, here are some cautions.  Make absolutely certain that all apps, music, movies, etc. are present in the iTunes library.  Also make absolutely certain that all "regular" data, such as pdf files, Word files, etc. are present and accessible somewhere on the computer's hard drive.  Be aware that you will probably lose all game data (scores, etc.).  I did not investigate a solution for that because I don't play many games and I really don't care about the game history.  Finally, be forewarned that it is a bit tedius recreating all your folders and putting each app where you want it.

  • Good Bye Version 1.0.3 build 16 -- How do I uninstall everything and go back to previous version?

    Good Bye Version 1.0.3 build 16 -- How do I uninstall everything and go back to the previous version?
    Okay, I found the prior version of DesktopManager for Mac in one of my old backups from March of this year.  The new 1.0.3 dmg has an uninstaller next to the installer.  I am going to remove 1.0.3. from all of my computers, and install the prior version, and set the preferences for do NOT (NEVER!!!) upgrade / update!

    So -- did it work? I've heard people have gone back to the previous version and mysteriously, the syncing problems followed along, even though they weren't there before v. 1.0.3.
    BTW, where do you find the uninstall piece on the application? I looked for it once and didn't find it where I thought it would be.

  • Can I uninstall Yosemite and go back to my old OS?

    Can I uninstall Yosemite and go back to my old OS?

    It's not a simple uninstall. You'll need to erase the hard drive, install the old OS version, and then restore your data from a backup. It's a time consuming process and it's probably easier to try and troubleshoot whatever issues you're having with Yosemite.

  • Will uninstalling Mavericks and reverting back to Lion restore iMovie to 9.0.0?

    I’m someone who regularly uses iMovie to edit videos for YouTube, and given that my iMovie 9.0.4 recently decided to go bonkers beyond repair, I can no longer use it, for it’s no longer on my Mac.
    In short, iMovie 10 is an utter disgrace, and I want iMovie 9 back. Now, in order for me to get iMovie 9 back, will uninstalling Mavericks and reverting back to Lion (a better OS in my opinion anyway) return iMovie to its former glory? My Mac didn’t come with a disc, so how would this work?
    Thanks for any help can may be provided!

    You should still have iMovie9 in a folder after Mavericks upgrade.  It did not delete it.  Check your applications.

    While we all have MacBooks only a few have Lion. There's a Lion Support Community. You should also post this question there. https://discussions.apple.com/community/mac_os/mac_os_x_v10.7_lion

    My two old white MacBooks run perfect with Snow leopard, but my 2011 17" i7 Macbook Pro is a dead slug with yosimite installed.
    Tried the start with C held down, also with option held down.  All it does is beeps at me three times, then again three times..... 
    I want to remove yosimite and install Snow leopard from dvd as yosimite runs worse than a Windows OS.
    Can it be done, what do I need to do please?
    Examples of faults,  even with a 1tb solid state drive and 16 gig of ram, it is incredibly slow.  Took four hours to install Logic 8 last night, I still have to reinstall logic 9 upgrade.   On the White MacBooks I got both 8 and 9 installed in under an hour and a half all up.
    Beeping on startup means failed RAM.
    Slowness is usually caused by incompatible third-party system modifications.

  • Table Partitions and Rolling Window: free space not reclaimed

    I have a couple of processes that involve the rolling window scenario where we drop an old partition and add a new partition monthly. We are seeing, however, that free space is not being reclaimed, and so I keep having to feed new datafiles into the tablespace (which is LMT). I was (mistakenly, it seems) under the impression that dropping a partition frees up that space for re-use.
    We're currently on Oracle 10gR2 (10.2.0.2), but these tablespaces were orginally created in 9i. I've read that one solution is to implement "table shrinking," however I also see that is only available on tables in an ASSM tablespace. I see that ASSM is the default for tablespaces in 10gR2, but since my tablespaces were created in 9i, I assume they are not ASSM.
    I'd like to see what other people think of this scenario. Surely a lot of people do the rolling window scenario and need space reclaimed.

    No, it is of concern because Sanadra was messing with the partitions. She could have inadvertantly caused something to happen, in this case the free-space issue, and it's imperative to get all of the details.
    My iMac 27' Late-2012 does not have a fusion drive, yet shows that the type is "internal" the original poster doesn't indicate that.

  • Restored hard drive using Time Machine and tons of free space appeared?

    Hi all
    Went to install Snow Leopard yesterday, and learned I didn't have enough free space left on my Macbook. Went to clear some space and....long story short, cleared up too much stuff, Macbook wouldn't restart, had to restore from a Time Machine backup I did right before trying to clear off space.
    Fine.
    Back up, running fine.
    But, um, I now have 32GB of free space, where I had about 5 before
    I seem to have my iPhoto and iTunes libraries, and can't see what I've lost, but I'm nervous as ****.
    Anybody have any idea what could have happened to create so much free space?

    First, check to see if you have anything on the Tm exclusion list in TM system preferences->options.
    there are also a few things that TM never backs up and some of them may have been too big. that includes your Trash so if you are not in the habit of emptying it regularly that may have been the reason. also, you could have had runaway log files. log files are not backed up either. another possibility is huge swap files. they are not backed up either.
