What is the best mac utility or application to "clean" my macbook pro?

I have a MacBook Pro (retina, 13 inch, mid-2014) with a 3 GHz Intel Core i7 and the 16GB 1600 MHz running OS X El V 10.11.3 DDR3 memory.

I get ads online to "Clean my Mac" and wonder if there is an apple utiity that should be used and if not who is the preferred application.

You. No software is required. Browse your files in the home folder and delete those you don't need just manually.

Online ads as you describe are scams and should be ignored. Do not click on links or dial phone numbers.

Free space on hard drive

1. see Lion-Lion/mountain/storage of the Mavericks display.

2. you can remove the data from your file except for the folder/Home/Library /.

3. visit The FAQ XLab and read the FAQ on the free space on your hard drive.

4. also see release space on your Mac OS X startup disk.

5 see where my disk space gone?.

6 see the storage view.

You must empty the trash in order to recover the space they occupied on the hard drive.

You should consider to replace the drive with a larger. Check out OWC of readers, tutorials and boxes tools.

Try using OmniDiskSweeper 1.8 or GrandPerspective to search your drive for large files and where they are.

  • What is the best platform to develop applications for BlackBerry 10?

    Hi all

    I have developed applications for BlackBerry 6 and 7 for the last 3 years, but I am very new to BlackBerry 10. I know that most of the developer would like BB 10 is something new. I have about five years of experience in the JAVA platform, but unfortunately BB 10 is not supported it unless you develop applications for Android and the port at 10 BB.

    When I checked the list of programs that are supported by BB 10, I saw C/Cpp, Cascades, HTML5 and action script among them. But which one to choose? There is where I am confused. I don't have any experience in the above mentioned technologies. If I select, I need to learn from the beginning. When I went through a few posts, I got to know many people prefer to develop in HTML5, as it is a cross-platform technology. But many have said that it may have problems of performance and the native technologies like C/Cpp, waterfalls will be the best options in terms of performance.

    Can anyone suggest me the best technology to start with BB10?

    Cascades is based on Qt, which is a cross-platform C++ library. It encapsulates many low level BB Native API - s for easier use, but you still have direct access to these APIs if necessary. C++ syntax is similar to Java, so it shouldn't be too difficult to pass. I suggest choosing stunts.

  • What is the best tracker... Mocaha AE or Mocha pro vs Tracker vs. AE pf?

    I used

    AE cc2015 fully updated

    and

    Mocha pro 4.1

    But now I know the difference b/w them

    I think pf Tracker is more precise and well I did not pursue it

    any body he knows it?

    Plase let me know

    Thank you

    Unfortunately there is no real answer to your question because it is the best tracker to use depends entirely your shot and what you're trying to do. I do a lot of follow-up, and almost every shot requires a slightly different technique. I have Pro mocha, synthesis, Nuke, After Effects, Blender, C4D and each of them have trackers that are better suited to certain jobs than others. I do a surprising number of shots just by using EI (no chain stabilize) to stabilize and AE point tracker because I can do what needs to be done in less time with any other method. I use corners of AE followed quite often, but most of my corners of follow-up is performed in Mocha AE. If I need additional features that Mocha Pro I will open the project in this. I even use the tracker in Blender often enough to make things like texture followed and 2 .5d map projection. It works surprisingly well for a few shots. I use summaries to make complicated background replacement and substitution of texture.

    So here's my question for you. What kind of follow-up you trying to do? How many times do you do? You have a professional understanding of the directors of tracking and compositing with regard to the perspective and Parallax, handle lens distortion problems? I just drove a tutorial on the replacement of surface using Mocha AE, corners of mocha with the power PIN CC to replace a logo on a truck to follow-up on. It was the best solution for this particular move because of the shooting, the surface of the van, reflections and shadows and some other considerations. If the shot has used another truck and was shot at another moment of Tracker of PIN for the corner of the day AE may have done the job using a simpler workflow in less time, but because of the shooting that Mocha AE works great.

    Here's what the project using Mocha AE looks like:

    The final model:

    The final project of Mocha tests:

    The model of the power PIN CC with the layer of truck visible by reference:

    Also complex that sounds like if the shooting had no shadows and truck/trailer had more details and the camera had no distorting lens or movement so I could have done this project stabilizer using of AE, a null value and an expression with half of the layers.

    Show us a typical picture and we offer the easiest and fastest option. The only way you know which tool is the best is to work a bunch of shots in a bunch of different ways and to pay attention to the details of the workflow. Here is a small tutorial on another follow-up (make sure that stabilizer) technique that works very well and can be done in a very short time using Tracker basis of EI: (sorry, there no audio data)

  • What is the largest size SSHD I can put in my Macbook Pro 2015?

    I have a model early 2015 MacBook Pro 13 w/retina with 8 GB of RAM with a 128 SSHD.  I want to upgrade the SSHD and I have a few questions:

    1. What is the largest size that I can install it?

    2. how to re-install the operating system?

    Thanks in advance for your help...   I apologize if this question has already been asked, but I couldn't find the answers.

    Technically, SSHD refers to a drive of Fusion purchased in-store, with a rotating part (the hard drive) and a Solid State Drive, all in one package.

    I think you meant to ask about Solid State Drive or SSD. That's all that will fit in the MacBook pro 13 - in 2015.

  • What are the normal batteries fresh cycle when buying a used macbook pro

    Hello

    Looking to buy a macbook pro 2014, battery life is important enough and the machine, that I'm looking seems really well taken care of but the battery charge cycle is 300. Is this ok or normal? I don't like the idea that it is a third of the used way!

    Regardless of the number of cycles a battery has gone through, replace the battery with five years of service.  Age is a factor in the health of a lithium-ion battery.

    Assuming a battery will last in its setting of 1000 cycles design (most don't) suggests that 200 cycles per year would be realistic.  The MBP you are considering have 300 cycles seems to be quite normal given his age.  I wouldn't worry.

    Ciao.

    What kind of dirty? Hit by a splash of muddy water and you hunt elephants? Or a more down to Earth 'footprints on my front element' dirty? So late, you can use a little liquid and a wipe of lens for lens cleaning tissue. Blow gently in the dirt with a blower of squeeze and lightly sweep any 'chunks' tenacious with a fine brush for lenses, usually sold as a combination tool. Repeat as needed until you are lint or grease issues, then use the liquid and dry.

    • Adobe Dreamweaver is mainly for professional website developers who live and breathe the programming or for designers and project managers who have learned enough HTML at ease. Even if there are a lot of models and tools of environmental Designer, the major attraction of Dreamweaver is how it offers full access to the code, with immediate feedback (through a split screen) what look like the results. The same content can be published for a desktop browser or mobile devices like the iPhone, iPad or Android smartphones.
    • Adobe Muse is a new tool mainly for graphic designers who want to create and publish Web sites without writing code. With a cooked graphic design interface, Adobe Muse generates the HTML to publish directly to the web. Muse sites can be hosted on the hosting platform integrated Adobe Business catalyst or transferred to a third party hosting provider. Adobe Muse includes widgets, which are built features such as slideshows and albums, that you can drag and drop on the pages of the site. However, Muse currently does not support the development of sites that target mobile devices, like the iPad, iPhone and Android smartphones.
    • Adobe Edge, currently public preview on Adobe Labs, is used to create web animations. The files it produces are usually added to a Web site using a tool such as Dreamweaver.
