Remove iPhoto file after migration to pictures?

I'm on MacBook Pro retina w / 251 GB SSD memory, bought 2013.  IPhoto library migrated to Photos but takes 62 GB of memory. What I lose if I delete the file Library.migratedphotolibrary of iPhoto?

If you have checked and it thing even migrated to Photos correctly, you can remove the file from IPhoto library.

Be aware, however, that you will find only a small part of this storage space. This is because the way it works is that both libraries are actually pointing the same files on your drive. The image files are not duplicated.

  • Cannot remove/change files after upgrade to Windows7

    After the upgrade from Vista to Windows7 due download my files to Carbonite. Now, impossible to remove or change anything on these files & had to copy them all to have control.  When I try to change information about the files, I received a "must be an administrator to change the files' - who I am.  Because I had duplicate files it also reproduces the space used and am running out of space.  Help, please.

    Your post raises a number of questions.  What is your hard drive?  How big are your downloads?  You have the download in a folder marked read-only?  Are some of the downloads in read-only or system?  You always have the Vista files in something like Windows.old?  Do you receive messages of UAC?  You have a laptop or desktop?

    On the problem of disk space, you can buy 1 TB disks, for desktop computers inside or outside for $50, and you can buy a 16 GB FlashDrive for less than $20.  You can also do a disk management, since you have two copies of downloaded files and possibly the old Vista files.  With very large hard drives as cheap that they lost, it's pretty easy to solve the problems of disk with a new disk space.

    Good luck.

  • Safe to remove iPhoto Library after upgrade to Photos

    If I understand correctly, when I started using Photos, it improved my old iPhoto library and created a new library of Photos. Basically, it is now a duplicate of the iPhoto library, correct? I am terribly insufficient disk and wanted to delete the old iPhotos library but I want to assure you that this won't make me lose a photo at this point! I use Yosemite but will improve soon as soon as I have enough recovered disk space...

    Thanks much for any help!

    Yes, if you're absolutely sure you don't need it, then you can delete it. But you won't get back as much space as you think. The two libraries share the same original files, so most of the space will not be recovered.

    How much space do you have?

    Scratcher head on this one.  I've looked everywhere without success.  This has nothing to do with the folders created in Outlook.  There is a default search icon in OWA 2010, but I did a recent migration from 2007 to 2010 to another server 2010.  I needed to virtualize the server and the server messaging system the 2007 has been the server I was converting to a hyper-v Server, where the two migrations.  If I create a new user, files will be displayed, but any user who is migrated do not appear in OWA.  Anyone have any ideas?  What I have to recreate the virtual directory OWA, forget the exact in EMC function since I'm not looking for it.  Please do not post the link for the folders of Outlook not appearing is not in OWA for this in NOT the question.  I took two screenshots, the first does not search folder icon and made the second.  Thanks for any help!

  • Removal of WAV files after you create AAC version in iTunes

    I recently deleted about 5 GB of iTunes WAV files after their conversion to AAC files. I chose to "move to trash" and then empty the trash. When I rebooted my computer, there is about 5 GB of free storage added to my HD but not the Audio storage, which has not changed. I forgot to check the free space came as I thought it would be audio.

    I tried manually deleted WAV files and they do not appear on my HD, only new AAC versions I created. I'm curious to know why the Audio storage did not change at all, even if the files are audio files and seem to have been properly removed from my HD. I wonder if they were not stored somewhere else and if so I want to make sure that they have been deleted. What worries me is that my iTunes library is 94 Go yet my Audio storage is 126 GB. I understand Garageband, etc. takes place, but the gap seems to be excessive. Please help/explain whether you have any ideas!

    Much appreciated!

    You'd better ask about the way in which the information system is referred to in the forum system for your computer. If it were me, I'd be just glad if you removed 5 GB of files 5 GB have been released.  If you want more details, try a specific tool like OmniDiskSweeper: https://www.omnigroup.com/more/

  • How to remove programe files that remain in the registry after I uninstalled these programs?

    How to remove programe files that remain in the registry after I uninstalled these programs?
    I uninstalled Nero 8 on my system (Windows Vista Edition home premium, 64-bit dell 1737 studio system); but several Nero files are always stuck in my registry. How can I remove them without destabilizing the system? Thank you.

    Yes, Nero is a software that I hate. I liked Nero until 6 version, I think, but after the Version 8 and 9, it was pathetic.

    2 years ago I had uninstalled a lot of software and there were many many registry entries obsolete - when a search I found that a member of a forum on the Web recommend CCleaner.

    Used from 2 years - each time without making registry backups. He never did wrong with my two PC - Windows XP SP3 and Windows 7 SP1 (previously Windows 7 RTM).

    The registry cleaner is fantastic.

    In which case you can try it, here's the download link.

    WARNING: Installation be sure to uncheck the installation of Google Chrome options.

    CCleaner automatically prompts you to create backups of registry before she cleans up the registry. The choice is totally yours.

  • Can I remove the file 'SaveData.mig' after I run Windows Easy Transfer?

    Can I remove the file 'SaveData.mig' after I run Windows Easy Transfer?

    I used easy transfer to move files from an old computer to my new about 12 months ago. The SaveData.mig file takes 22 GB of space on the new computer. I would like to remove it but I don't know if it will mess up all my files that have been transferred to my new computer. Anyone know if I can delete this file in order to free up space? Thank you

    I agree with Mohdrafi - you can remove safely; However, you should have a more recent backup of your current files just to be on the right side (image FULL weekly backup and an incremental backup every day for an external HARD drive - I've seen too many people get burned when their drive hard breaks down or something worse and then they lose all their precious documents (, photos, audio and other files).  There ARE recovery procedures, but they don't always work, and they don't always get everything (especially if you expect to solve the problem or continue to use the PC in the meantime)- and depending on your version of Vista.  Delete this file will NOT affect the files and settings that you restored using the process.  Could have deleted it hours after that the process has been done (once you have a good backup) and it would have been very well then.  If you have a good backup, I can see no reason whatsoever to keep the file.

    If the normal delete function in Vista doesn't work, try using one of the following free products to remove the file.  Unlocker to: http://www.softpedia.com/get/System/System-Miscellaneous/Unlocker.shtml or file Assassin http://www.malwarebytes.org/fileassassin.php (with or without forcing the deletion: http://www.mydigitallife.info/2008/12/27/force-delete-cannot-delete-locked-or-in-used-files-or-folders-with-fileassassin/). These programs often work when normal functions remove Vista not work correctly.

    Congratulations to the use of Easy Transfer - this is a pretty cool tool isn't it?  Not sure how many threads that we have here people with issues or recoving given him--I saw a lot.  It seems easy on the surface, but when it doesn't work it can become quite complex and aggravating (and I know people who have unfortunately never were able to retrieve their data and settings no matter what we tried).

    I hope this helps.

    Good luck!

  • How to move photos all photos and remove iPhoto and Aperture libraries?

    How can I move all the my iPhoto and Aperture photos to Photos and remove iPhoto and Aperture libraries?  Photos automatically links to the old library on migration to save space with two libraries.

    As a related issue, there don't seem to be anyway to determine if a picture is stored when viewing Photos.  Incredibly frustrating when there are duplicates because how do you know who I should delete?

    No - nothing is connected - once you migrate a library it is independent and did no link to the original library - you can remove it if yo want

    However the removal of the original library will save the little space and is not repeated because it uses hard links to the original and previews so the new library uses little extra space

    As duplicates - what difference does make? They are duplicates so delete an and smells like another - even - you do not have any what visibility of the underlying files (and do not need to do this) in pictures

    Pictures is a new program and this is a learning curve - and is not a professional software like Aperture, so it is not expected at all what Aperture is - is better than iPhoto and get closer to the opening, but I doubt it will ever open

  • has obtained several photos and iphotos files and you want to merge all of this.

    Hello.

    I want to thank the members of the community to help :-).

    I have a macbook pro, mid-2012.

    OS version: 10.11.3 (El Capitan).

    I had to format my computer and installs all the photos/iphotos files I had in the cloud (dropbox), but now, after having copied the folder to the back, I noticed that I have a problem - history

    I see 4 different folders, all under the iPhoto library:

    1 iPhoto library

    2 iPhoto Library.migratedphotolibrary

    3 iPhoto Library.photolibrary

    4. photos Library.photoslibrary

    I remember I have started a sort of fusion between iPhoto & Photos once Apple has released the new Photos app, but frankly, I never understood the concept, what I'm doing and why (sorry, that was my mistake, and maybe I should have approached support that).

    So, my questions:

    1. How can I configure the app Photos to point to the appropriate folder, and the folder where it should be?

    2. How can ensure me that ALL the images I've ever taken are covered in this folder (merged correctly), in order to avoid the lack of some of them?

    3. I would like to delete unnecessary records because they take a lot of space, but how can I be sure I'm not losing images?

    Thank you :-).

    Gadi.

    Hi Gadi,

    must remove or libraries, until you find one that works... Frankly, Dropbox is not a safe place to store some libraries. Libraries, I tested in Dropbox have been corrupted by the synchronization.  SO keep all of them, or copies of them, until you found one that works.

    To find the best look of the library for the file size and the date last modified.  You have imported new photos in your amber iphoto library library you first tried to open the new Photos.app?  If this is not the case, try to move the Photos Library.photoslibrary Photos icon in the Dock.  The photos must be able to open this library.

    If Library.photoslibrary Photos is only small, try opening the largest of iPhoto Library.photolibrary or iPhoto Library in pictures by dragging one of them on the Photos icon.  One of them works?
