Need help deleting languages
ok, so after i installed leopard, i was only left with 7gb of space left on my hard drive. so i got thinking, how can i make some extra room. then, as i was looking around my desktop,i noticed the union jack. so that got me thinking about deleting the other languages on the hard drive, seeing as i didnt have any choice but to install them.
so basically, can anyone help he get rid of some of those unwanted languages.
thanks

Good luck!

You DO have a choice not to install languages when you install Leopard. It's a pain but you can remove them from individual applications after by Showing Info. Not sure how much space this would save. Trash printer drivers first, they're like 3.5 Gigs.
yeh, i managed to not install the printer drivers. but whilst i was installing i had no choice but to install all the excess languages, there were sort of 'grayed' out
Youpi should be ok. It scans your mac disk, and looks at the languages for individual programs, not just the OSX operating system. You can make it list the languages that are present, and can check the ones which you dont want, and you can set which languages to not delete in the preferences too. So as long as you're careful, there is no danger of screwing up.
looks good, but does it work with leopard? i know its nit picking, but ive managed to bugger this computer up once already. also, i think ive decided im going to buy an external hard drive soon, mainly so i can use time machine and the like. should clear a good 15 gb. (from a 60gb hard drive). thanks again for the responses
