How to delete question

I asked a question and found the answer before I got any replies, so how can I delete the question from the discussion forum?

2010 MacBook Pro i5, and many many others, Mac OS X (10.6.4)

you did the first step already - by bringing it to the attention of the hosts in this forum.

perhaps a link to your post in question would be helpful ... 😉 ( http://discussions.apple.com/message.jspa?messageID=12667740#12667740)

actually, just close the thread by marking your question answered. unless you insist the thread be removed.

Hi S Jack,

You can not delete your own post, whether topic or reply within a topic, other than to "edit" it within 15 minutes after posting. For that window of time there is an icon that appears above your post that allows you to edit it. If you wish to clear the information it is usually done by just typing "ignore" or similar which effectively tells users that you changed your mind about posting. Of course you can come to the Feedback About Discussions and ask that the post be reported to the Hosts or to ask for a Hosts attention here to try to delete it if possible. There is further information in the Help & Terms of Use link in the sidebar at the right ->.

I saw your other two posts and thought they were both informative and helpful so I'm not sure why your would like them to be deleted but I may be missing something that would cause you to wish one or both to be deleted.

hope that helps some,

littleshoulders 🙂
