What files can delete from my imac in order to back up my ipad to my computer.

What files can delete from my imac in order to back up my ipad to my computer.

If it is a matter of storage space, any files you no longer need or can move off to an external drive. If that isn't what you mean, you might want to post some additional details.

    Hi I bought 2TB WD my passport for mac but I do not know what I can delete from the original macbook air. Thank you.

    That depends on what you have on the MBA...if you have videos, move the videos to the external drive.  If you have a lot of music, create a folder/library for the music and point iTunes there for the music.  If you have a lot of photos for iPhoto, make a new library on the external drive and move our photos over there and then select that library as the default library for iPhoto to use.
    Those are the big files and should take a lot of the load off the internal storage.

  • Received message that my start up disk is almost full. Where is this located and how do I know what I can delete?

    Received a message that my start up disk is almost full. Where do I locate my start up disk / files and how do I know what i can delete from this folder to make more space?

    Start up disk is the main, and only, internal disk of your computer.
    I hope you know what you saved on it, so you also know what can be removed

  • When I delete an email from my iPad, it deletes from my iMac as well. How can I make it work the other way around - have it delete from my iPad if I delete it from the iMac?

    When I delete an email from my iPad, it deletes automatically from my iMac as well. How do I arrange to have emails I delete from my iMac automatically delete from my iPad?
    Thanks.

    My provider is gmail through Rogers in Canada. I use Thunderbird. My iMac is set for imap. I am unable to find where it tells me what mu iPad is set for. I've checked settings: mail and can't find it.
    Thanks for your help so far.

  • Deleting AD users vs Disabling. What is the difference? If an account is disabled, can it still be setup for mail forwarding to another user? If an account is deleted, what files get deleted?

    Deleting AD users vs Disabling.  What is the difference?  If an account is disabled, can it still be setup for mail forwarding to another user? If an account is deleted, what files get deleted?  Thanks.

    Hi,
    Disable Users: Nobody can log in to the mailbox, but the data is safe and it can receive email. Once it is enabled, it is back to normal.
    Delete Users: when the user is deleted all the services are removed and all data is erased. The user is deleted from our Active Directory. If you create a user with the same Name and Emial address again, no data or services are recovered.
    If you disable a user, the Active Directory object remains untouched together with the mailbox data and properties, but you will not be able to access any mailbox data.
    If you delete a user, the Active Directory object is removed together with all data and properties of the user.
    Hope it helps.

    of these, what can be excluded and what have to be included?

  • What files can I safely delete?

    My Premiere Pro CS2 Files are a mess!
    Since I got into HD with my Canon HV20 I've been filling internal and external hard drives like no tomorrow. My TerraByte drives are full. I have thousands of files with extensions like: PRV, CFA, DEK, MACC, XMPSES and more. I don't know what I can delete and what I need to keep, collectively they are taking up an incredible amount of space.
    Right now, I'm really hung up as I'm virtually out of space on one drive and CS2 can't conform (?) or render my movie.
    How do Premiere CS2 users organize their files - what do they keep and for how long?
    Ideas and methods would be much appreciated. Thanks.

    If the project is finished and you never need to return to it. Export an uncompressed Master and archive it with the Source files and a .proj file. Use an external drive. (I use a e sata HD docking station for this purpose.)
    Delete everything else.

    Also delete your cookies and other web data, as it can build up and you don't really need that stuff.
    Try going to to Go in the finder menu, Go to Folder, Type in ~/Library/ click Go and look around and see what you don't need and highlight and delete the junk.

  • I have stored material on .mac, .me. and now iCloud; how do I get to it from my mac?  All can get from my iMac is mail.

    I have stored material on .mac, .me. and now iCloud; how do I get to it from my mac?  All can get from my iMac is mail.

    What kind of "material" are you talking about.  If it's files that you stored on iDisk (part of MobileMe), then you won't have them available in iCloud - iCloud doesn't not offer a service similar to iDisk.

  • How do I know what files to remove from my Macbook Pro laptop?

    Apparently my hard drive is full and I need to remove files so I have space to download more music and movies.  I don't want to delete important files.  How do I go about doing this? 

    How do I know what files to remove from my Macbook Pro laptop?
    Remove only files you yourself stored on the laptop; files in your Home folder. Don't delete any files from the system libraries, and if you want to remove applications, use the provided uninstallers.
    For files in the media libraries - iTunes, iPhoto, iMovie use the application to delete music, photos, movies.
    If you are planning on storing more movies and music on your mac, deleting old files will probably not suffice alone to free enough space. Consider to get yourself an external drive to store your media.

  • WHAT files can I dump?

    Once I have created an iDVD project and saved it as a disc utility, what files can I dump? Can I trash the original iDVD file? Can I trash the Quicktime movie that I used to create the iDVD file from Final Cut Pro? Can I throw away everything but the disc utility?

    Once you have a copy of the DVD on your hard drive as a disk image, if you never need to re-edit the project you can throw out EVERYTHING if you like as you can create as many copies from the disk image as needed. The disk image is a completely stand alone copy.

  • HT3275 TIme Machine deleting files I deleted from my home drive

    This seems like a very basic problem but I cant find an answer and am no longer able to use Apple Support.  I am trying to erase files from my very crowded home drive.  I bought an external drive and backed up all fikles there.  However, now when I delete files from my home drive and plug in the external drive, Time Machine delets the files I deleted from my home drive on the external drive which defeats my purpose.  Can anyone help a hopelsessly tech savvyless stranger.
    Thanks So much

    Copy the files to the external drive in the Finder instead of going through Time Machine. If you want that drive to have a bootable OS, you'll need to use software such as Carbon Copy Cloner or SuperDuper.
    Time Machine backups are designed for recovery of accidentally or inadvertently deleted files. They aren't meant for primary storage of files you don't want on any other drive. In any case, drives eventually fail; anything you want to keep shouldn't be on only one drive.
