Why delete photos to get more disk space do not work?

Why don't earn any disk space when I delete the 'Photos' photos and the album "recently deleted?

Deleted photos are kept for a week by default. If you really want to get rid of them now, use the command empty the trash inside the Photos.

  • Help return to iPhoto + delete Photos library to recover disk space

    When the Photos were initially introduced, I didn't know what I would get in when I just clicked "convert to Photos" or whatever the wording was.

    A week in the new application I realized that it wasn't for me (lack of some key tools like iPhoto), so just started using iPhoto again instead

    -but only now I realize the new Photos app seems to be "hogging" lots of disk space:

    When I look under the images, I see my iPhotos current library clocking in at about 64GM.

    While the Photos library clocks (now are more used) in a 66GB even higher.

    My question: How do I clear all (assuming that duplicate) photos in Photos and get much needed storage space of hard drive?

    Is it save to just delete the folder from the library of Photos in my pictures folder or I have to delete all the photos in the Photos app?

    If you don't use Photos and has no pictures in you need to trash just the photo library - it will not save a lot of space because of the hard links that are used, but if you use any Photos, then there is no reason to keep the library autour and when you are ready to migrate again (you will need since iPhoto is not supported and an upgrade it) break)

    I get the message "your system has wearied of the memory of the Application." So I can not open Mail, Safari, or any application.  However, I can periodically, the first thing in the morning, after I Shut Down & power up, not after a reboot.  I deleted a lot of photos and videos to free up space, but not luck.  IPhotos, I get the mssg. "cannot import pictures because not enough free space on the volume containing the iPhoto library."     The problem might be related to: 1 overheating, 2 PureVPN although I installed about 5 months ago and it was very good; 3. the MB Air was diverted (I'm worried that PureVPN may have something to do with it).  Or is this a sign that I need to get a new laptop?  Thanks for any help you can offer!

    Hi Ericacole

    What version of the bridge are you using and what is your OS?

    Please how much is left in your main hard drive.

    By default, the bridge cache is located at: -.

  • If I bring in photos from Iphoto, I use more disk space on my hard drive. I don't want to replicate my entire file. I have 26000 photo photos in I.

    If I bring in photos from Iphoto, I use more disk space on my hard drive. I don't want to replicate my entire file. I have 26000 photo photos in I.

    You need to duplicate pictures unless you want to use the PSE as external editor for iphoto. In iphoto, your photos are stored in a library owner, which should never be marred with programs other than iphoto. Written to the iphoto library from outside iphoto is the best way to corrupt and lose all the photos it contains.

    So you can either set PSE as external editor and send the photos of in iphoto, or you export photos from iphoto to use them outside of this program.

  • I want to allocate more disk space for my c drive and remove the drive d

    I want to allocate more disk space for my c drive and remove the drive d. I 26 gig on the d drive and only using less than 1% of it, and I have the same amount on c, but only 39% c left. How to do this.

    LEM explained the problems that you tried to resize partitions on the same drive.

    You can create more free space in C in carrying one of the measures suggested below.

    The default allocation for the restoration of the system is 12% on your C partition is more generous. I have them would be reduced by 700 MB. Make my computer right click on your icon, and select System Restore. Place the cursor on your C drive select settings but this time find the slider and drag it to the left until it shows 700 MB and output. When you get to the settings screen, click on apply and OK and leave.

    A flaw that might be useless which is for temporary internet files, especially if you keep no copies on the disk offline. Setting the default value is 3% of the walk. Depending on your attitude to copies offline, you could bring it to 1% or 2%. In Internet Explorer, select Tools, Internet Options, general, temporary Internet files, settings to make the change. At the same time, look at the number of days, the story stands.

    The default allocation for the basket is 10% of the disk. Change to 5%, which should be enough. In Windows Explorer hover over your Recycle Bin, right click and select Properties, Global and move the slider from 10% to 5%. However, try to let you become so complete that if it is complete and you delete a file by mistake it will bypass the Recycle Bin and have gone forever.

    You can generate more space in the system (usually C) the folder move partition.

    For temporary Internet files, select Start, Control Panel, Internet Options, temporary Internet files. Settings and move back.

    To move the storage folder Outlook Express select from Outlook Express Tools, Options, maintenance, store folder and change.  http://www.tomsterdam.com/insideoe/files/store.htm.

    How to change the default location of the My Documents folder: http://support.microsoft.com/?id=310147

    You may also change the default locations of the files in Microsoft Office programs when you choose to move the My Documents folder. For Word, go to tools, Options, file locations, highlight the Documents, click on edit and change the path. For Excel, go to tools, Options, general, and change the default path.

    My Documents is one of the many the created system of special folders, which include my pictures, and my music. It can be more easily modified using TweakUi. Download TweakUI, one of MS powertoys, here: http://www.microsoft.com/windowsxp/pro/downloads/powertoys.asp.

    In TweakUi, select workstation, special folders. You can scroll down to see the full list of special folders to the left of the button to change the location.

    You can move programs, but to do this, you must uninstall and reinstall the program. With Word and Excel, the existing data files are not affected by reinstalling. Most of the work in question is going to be reinstall all updates issued after those that are included with the original Microsoft CD / DVD.

    If your drive is formatted as NTFS another potential gain arises with your operating system on your C drive. In the Windows directory of your C partition you will some uninstall files in your Windows folder in general: $NtServicePackUninstall$ and $NtUninstallKB282010$ etc. These files can be compressed or not compressed. If compressed text the name of the folder appears in blue. If these files are not compressed you can compress. Right-click on each folder and select Properties, general, advanced, and check the box before you compress contents to save disk space. On the general tab, you can see the winning amount by deducting the size on disk size. File compression is only an option on an NTFS formatted disk partition / partition.

    I'd be interested to see a report of Disk Defragmenter. Open Disk Defragmenter and click analysis. Select view report, and then click Save as and save. Now find VolumeC.txt in your My Documents folder. Open the file, place the cursor anywhere in the file, select Edition, select all to select all the text and copy and paste into the body of your message. To do this, before you run Disk Defragmenter because it is more informative.

    Select Start, all programs, accessories, System Tools, cleaning disk to emptying your trash, delete temporary Internet files and other selected options. I recommend also you click Other Options, System Restore and delete all but the last system restore point. Run Disk Defragmenter

    Using the system restore option is most appropriate when your system is slow and you need to increase the free disk space on your C partition. If you have errors that could be solved by using the system restore to your system settings back to before that the error occurred initially, do not use this option.

    Select Start, Control Panel, Folder Options, view, advanced settings and check the box in front of "show files and folders" and 'Hide protected operating system files' are unchecked. You may need to scroll down to see the second element. You should also make sure that the box before "Hide extensions of known file types" is not checked. Notwithstanding, there are some files that are hidden. Again, you will not see the System Volume Information folder.

  • iMac Mavericks - delete the Admin user & increase disk space

    My iMac Specs:

    OS X Version 10.9.5

    Processor 1.4 GHz Intel Core i5

    Memory 8 GB 1600 MHz DDR3

    Graphics  Intel HD Graphics 5000 1536 MB

    Serial number  C0 * Y0T

    Software  OS X 10.9.5 (13F1808)

    Mac HD 160,11 GB free on 499.25

    Hello

    My wife gave me his iMac and she is listed as a user Admin I created my own user. I want to create more disk space by removing his admin account.


    Apple gives these instructions:

    OS X Mavericks: remove a user

    If you are an administrator, you can remove users that you would no longer have access to your Mac.

    When you delete a user, you can save the home folder of the user, which contains the files and the settings of the user, or delete the folder.

    Open the preferences users and groups, and then click the lock icon to unlock it. If required, type your password, and then click on unlock.

    Select the user you want to remove, and then click Remove under the list of users.

    Do one of the following:

    To save the home folder of the user as a disc image, select "Save the home folder in a disk image." The disk image is saved in/Users/deleted users.

    In order to leave such base file, select "do not change the folder." The folder remains in / Users /.

    To delete the folder of your computer, select "Remove the folder." If you want to keep the programs that read the raw data to recover all files, select "delete the folder safely."

    Click on the user to remove.

    If you do not remove a personal folder user, you can restore the user and the content of the home folder.


    My questions, that they do not explain the instructions.

    1. can I delete his account if I'm not the Admin? I can access the admin account.

    2. can I designate me as the new admin, and then delete his account?

    3. I have, indeed, will create more disk space by removing account here?

    4. If I register his record as a disk image, which will open disk space without delete me the entire account?


    A technician Apple told me that I can not increase the memory of 8 GB to 16 GB on my vision.

    5. can't increase memory - is this true?

    My computer works as fast as I want and I'm trying to reduce the load on the system.

    6. I go about it the right way or is there something more I can do?

    Thank you

    < personal information under the direction of the host >

    Hi Tony, I asked your serial number erased. You never want to post in a public forum.

    To answer your question, no, you can not delete the account if you are not admin. You try to delete the account to become the sole Director of the computer? If so, everything will always be linked to his Apple ID and will require a password to authenticate anything. If this is the case, you must wipe the drive and reinstall the OS using internet recovery.

  • Deletion of user account for disk space

    Dear Sir or Madam:

    Deleting a user will represent to free up more disk space on Windows XP?

    This situation applies to Windows 7 and Windows 8?

    Please reply back soon.

    Thank you.

    A "user account" in itself takes up very little space.  But once the user first logs on, Windows creates a 'profile' so that the user who can occupy a lot of space.  The profile includes all files used on the user's desktop and files under "My Documents" folder of the user (among others) which may be quite large, but includes everything what preferences and user files.

    In Windows XP, you can see the amount of space used by each user profile to:

    Right click on "My Computer"-> properties-> (Advanced tab)-> settings (in the user profile Section)

    If you have permission, you can select a profile and click on the 'Delete' button to free up disk space.  He recreated the next time the user logs on but delete everything that the user files.

    In Windows 7, the same screen can be obtained from:

    Right click on "Computer"-> properties-> Advanced System Settings-> (Advanced tab)-> the settings in the user profile Section.

    HTH,

    You are on the right track.  Re-scan storage card, under the configuration tab select storage adapters, select the adapter and click on the link of the new analysis.  Then go to the storage section and there should be a link in the top right of the screen that says storage Add.  Click on that and it will guide you in adding/setting in form/naming of the new disk.
