Using Apps in OS X 10.8.4 which are deleted on ext HD

Hello, I recently updated from OS X  10.6.8  to  10.8.4.
As there is a printing programme for my Canon printer which ran fine under 10.6.8 but not at all under 10.8.4, and I need to open and still work with files I created in this programe, I installed 10.6.8 on an external HD, and then restored everythng as it had been to this HD, using Time Machine.
I want to reduce this in size, as I really don't need all the apps/docs/etc etc as I have them all on the internal Mac HD in 10.8.4.
So my question is: can move apps, files, videos, iTunes docs and music files to the Trash and then delete them, and still have everything intact on the internal Mac HD with 10.8.4 ?
Thanks,
Matrose

Thanks, Kappy. The Lion driver also didn't help. I'll check out the Gutenberg drivers.
What I mainly want to delete is Garageband instruments and many of the music files I've created in Logic. They take up an enormous amount of space. I still want to use them in 10.8.4 though.
I wanted to back-up the 10.6.8 partition using Time Machine, to a partition on another external HD, and although 10.6.8 shows it has used 1.38 GB, TM said there wasn't enough space on the partition I'd chosen which was 150 GB.
I shall only use the printer in 10.6.8 and don't need all the rest which is why it seemed a logical solution to delete as much as possible.
Perhaps you have further insights.
I also tried to Save the files from this printer program as a different format, so I could simply import them into the current printing program which Canon provides, but it was impossible.

  • How to set printer margins if using a lot of printers in virtual desktops which are deleted each time users logs off

    Hello,
    i am using Firefox version 31. I have a problem with page setup margins. I need to use left
    30mm; right 10mm; top 20mm; bottom 20mm. I am using VMware floating assignemnt linked clones
    virtual desktops. After users log off - machines are deleted and users next time logs on get's brand
    new VDI's. Users gets printers to VDI using login script from Active Directory.
    Option Explicit
    Dim strPrinterUNC, objNetwork
    strPrinterUNC = "\\some_server\printer_number_1"
    Set objNetwork = CreateObject("WScript.Network")
    objNetwork.AddWindowsPrinterConnection strPrinterUNC
    WScript.Sleep (20000)
    objNetwork.SetDefaultPrinter strPrinterUNC
    Set objNetwork = Nothing
    Each user have different logon script, because they use different printers (different printer names e.g. \\some_server\printer_number_2 ; \\some_server\printer_number_3 and etc. Page setup margins in Internet Explorer are ok. But how to make Firefox page setup margins as i need? For other options i have
    used CCK2 Wizard 2.0.4 tool. It worked fine. Maybe i can put some information in C:\Program
    Files\Mozilla Firefox\defaults\pref\autoconfig.js I have some usefull data in it allready. I
    have found info that: "Setting print margins is done in the printer settings". I have a lot of
    printers, so i can not set printer margins individualy for each of them. Now mozilla shows top,
    bottom, right, left each 12.7 mm. What should i do if i have a lot of printers in enterprise
    environment?

    Firefox has a profile folder that has preferences to save this. But the config that would need to be changed is:
    print. save_print_settings = True - (default): Save the print settings after each print job
    Locking that preference: [http://kb.mozillazine.org/Locking_preferences]
    Or done manually:
    #In order to check the margins, we need to go to ''File'' > ''Page Setup''.
    #Once this is done, switch to the ''Margins & Header/Footer'' tab.
    #Check what's set there under ''Margins''.
    The following are the default values for ''Margins'':
    Check these values accordingly and change them if necessary.

  • Can i make a book in iPhoto without using any of the built in layout templates, which are too limiting when i have already cropped my pictures to show just what I want. Ideally I just want to drag and drop and arrange and size the pictures myself

    If you have Pages you can create customs pages for your book as TD suggested. If you have Pages from iWork 09 or 11 this app will add 80 or so additional frames to those offered:  Frames and Strokes Installer. Don't use it on the latest Pages version, however.
    This tutorial shows how to create a custom page with the theme's background: iP11 - Creating a Custom Page, with the Theme's Background for an iPhoto Book.  Once the page is complete to get it into iPhoto as a jpeg file follow these steps:
    Here's how to get any file into iPhoto as a jpeg file:
    1 - open the file in any application that will open it.
    2 - type Command+P to start the print process.
    3  - click on the PDF button and select "Save PDF to iPhoto".
    NOTE:  If you don't have any of those options go to Toad's Cellar and download these two files:
    Save PDF to iPhoto 200 DPI.workflow.zip
    Save PDF to iPhoto 300 DPI.workflow.zip
    Unzip the files and place in the HD/Library/PDF Services folder and reboot.
    4 - select either of the files above (300 dip is used for photos to be included in a book that will be ordered).
    5 - in the window that comes up enter an album name or select an existing album and hit the Continue button.
    That will create a 200 or 300 dpi jpeg file of the item being printed and import it into iPhoto. For books to be printed choose 300 dpi.

  • Using external HD, can't open up photos which are in library

    HD crashed. Rebuilding using external HD running OS. For now just operating with external as my HD. Bring up iPhoto, select option, choose library on the external where the photos are, but iPhoto says there are no photos. I have checked around in the library and the photos are definitely there. Any thoughts?

    Jeffrey:
    It sounds like the database file, Library6.iPHoto, has been damaged. Check the size of that file. If it's very small than iPhoto created a new one that contains no photos even though they are save in the Originals folder. If that's the case your only option is to create a new library and import the Originals folder from the old library folder. This will give you the same rolls as the old library although some may have a different roll date.
    You can try rebuilding the library, selecting all of the options, to see if that will bring them back but it's not been very successful for others. But worth a try.
    Do you Twango?
    TIP: For insurance against the iPhoto database corruption that many users have experienced I recommend making a backup copy of the Library6.iPhoto database file and keep it current. If problems crop up where iPhoto suddenly can't see any photos or thinks there are no photos in the library, replacing the working Library6.iPhoto file with the backup will often get the library back. By keeping it current I mean backup after each import and/or any serious editing or work on books, slideshows, calendars, cards, etc. That insures that if a problem pops up and you do need to replace the database file, you'll retain all those efforts. It doesn't take long to make the backup and it's good insurance.

  • How can I permanently remove apps from my ipad, iphone and ipod (which are in icloud)?

    How can I permanently remove apps from my iphone, ipad, ipod operating in the iCloud?

    Apps don't operate in the cloud - they're either downloaded to your device, or they're in your Purchased list. You can't permanently remove the history of apps you've purchased, but you can hide them. See this link:

  • IPhone 5 says using 4GB of storage on mail but all emails are deleted?

    Hi, recently my iPhone 5 has been asking me to create more storage and I noticed that 4GB of the space being used was on mail. I have 2 accounts a GMail and a POP3 - All of them are regularly deleted so there shouldn't be any real impact on storage - Can anybody help as to why the device is still saying I'm using that much on mail?
    Thanks

    I'm running into the same issue (on both my iphone's).
    The one that is hit worst has 5,2 Gb wordt of storage for mail and no accounts in there (anymore).
    How can we recouperate this space without doing a reset?

    You can't. Use something like Apple Remote Desktop.

  • Difference between using app server connection pooling and using the driver

    Hi all,
    How to get connection pooling with out application server and tomcat also?
    What is the difference between using app server connection pooling and using the driver supported connection pooling?
    Regards,
    Murali

    maybe the performance of App server pool is better than the JDBC pool,
    for you don't know wether the implementation of the JDBC interface is good or bad.

  • PLEASE help!! I use Outlook for my email and the Mail App Icon in my dock was also storing all my emails. So, I tried to delete ONLY the emails in the Mail App but somehow (under Preferences maybe?) I also deleted all my emails in my Outlook inbox.

    PLEASE help!! I use Outlook for my email and the Mail App Icon that is in my dock, that I know nothing about, was also storing all my emails. So, I tried to delete ONLY the emails in the Mail App but somehow (under Preferences maybe?) I also deleted ALL my OUTLOOK emails in my inbox.  Can someone please please tell me if there is a way to get my Outlook inbox emails back OR EVEN the emails that were in my Mail app - because even tho I never use the Mail app, at least the emails would be there.
    When I was trying to delete the emails in my inbox for the Mail app - I followed THESE directions.  It did in fact clear my inbox for the Mail app.  But then I went to log on to my Outlook account and EVERY SINGLE EMAIL was gone.  And not in the Deleted box.  Just gone.  Here are the directions I followed that screwed everything up.  Please help.
    Top menu bar, Mail > Preferences > Accounts > Mailbox Behaviors.
    Uncheck "Store deleted messages on the server".
    At the drop list for "Permanently erase deleted messages when", choose "Quitting Mail".
    Next...
    Top menu bar, Mail > Preferences > General.
    At "When searching all mailboxes, include results from", uncheck "Trash".
    Select All = command A

    i found out my prob!
    here is what you do.
    go to the "system preferences" on your dock.
    click "software updates".
    click "installed software"
    if it shows something about a recent update about "EFI UPDATE, FIRMWARE, THUNDERBOLT" or anything like that, exit out of it.
    go to mail.
    click "mail" at the top.
    click "preferences...".
    find the account you are having trouble with, once you do, make sure its highlighted, then click the "-" at the bottom of the window (this will only effect that mail account, it will not effect your ical weather or not its synced thought that email account)
    hit the "+" (right next to the "-") and add your accout back!
    its something with that update that effected mail, i hope this works out for you, if not reply back

  • I have BIS but can't surf, send/receive email, use apps

    i have BB Curve 8520. My BIS was running smoothly (sending and receiving emails real time and surfing the net through BIS), until i noticed when i tried to reply to an email that came in, it won't send. i noticed that it's fluctuating. i was able to send the email after a few minutes... then a few minutes later, i received a replied email from my friend, and when i tried to send my reply, i wasn't able to. also, i can't surf using the browser with the "internet browser" as default. i tried using my wifi and then suddenly all my emails started coming in, all emails that were not able to go through hours ago. my big question was why do i need to turn on wifi just to receive emails. but since i had my BIS for 2 months now, i can send and receive emails and surf through BIS itself without turning on the wifi.  also, i can't use any of my apps like facebook, twitter, yahoo messenger, etc.  They used to work fine with BIS... but now, i have to turn on the wifi connection, so i could log in with them.  aren't these supposed to be running through BIS only?
    I have GPRS on top, not gprs. my carrier says i have active data plan/BIS. but under Services Status..it says Blackberry Internet Service:  Connection:  not connected...
    so, i wiped out my BB and deleted all third party apps. when this was done, i received emails telling me "Your handheld has been registered with the wireless network" and even got "Activation Server" emails telling me that the emails that i have previously set up are now up and running. so i thought my BB is now ok.. i tried surfing, it was okay. after like about 5 minutes, it was down again. tried sending email but can't... i turned on the wifi and boom! the emails started coming in again.i have the Host Routing Tables and my Service Books in my BB. I have GPRS (not gprs) on top which means i have active BIS.  i have registered my HRTs several times... and resending my service books... same thing...
    the big mystery is when i turn on the wifi, the emails suddenly go through and i can send emails. i can open apps that used to only run on BIS. this is ok i guess, but i could never do any of these if i'm not connected to wifi.
    my sister and i have the same BB... i removed my sim and inserted it to her BB and the BIS worked fine... i was able to surf and use apps.. but when i put my sim back on my phone, the problem still exists.  i even used a different sim card that is also subscribed to BIS/data plan, and it still has the same problem... my guess is my carrier is right that my data plan is working ok and that my handheld itself has the problem... 
    i updated my OS, same problem.. wiped it out... used BBSAK, reinstalled OS... numerous battery pulls... same thing... i can receive the HRTs and service books, but after that can't do anything else like i used to... (send/receive emails, use apps like facebook, twitter, ym, etc., can't surf with internet browser - except when wifi is on everything else work fine even emails and apps).. 
    i would really appreciate your help guys.. thanks!

  • Can I use apps from foreign app store on my iPad?

    Hi guys,
    I apologise if this has been answered before. I would like to use apps from a foreign iTunes store on my iPad and wondered if anyone could help me with that.
    We live in Australia and I want my kids to learn German as well, so I thought it would be really nice to download a few educational apps from the German iTunes store for them. I have an Australian and a German iTunes account and once I changed my apple ID in the store preferences on my iPad I can download German apps without a problem. The trouble is now that from the two apps I downloaded one changed to english and the other one doesnt open at all.
    Do you have any suggestions how I could get this to work?
    Thanks

    How do I use apps downloaded in itunes on windows 7 and can I put them on iPod touch gen2 and gen4? thanks to any help I can get with this would be fun to play some of the games apps

    You can't use the apps on your computer, they can only be used on iOS devices : iPhones, iPads, and iPod Touches. Depending on which version of iOS you have on your iPod Touches (Settings > General > About > Version) then you should be able to sync most of the apps to them, especially the newer model - an app's requirements, including the minimum iOS version, are listed on the left-hand side of its description page in the store.
    To sync the apps, connect and select the iPod on the left-hand side of your computer's iTunes, and then on the right-hand side on the Apps select which apps you want to sync, and then sync/apply that selection
