Hi. I don't like versions and I don't need versions. I am a Save As person as I know exactly what I have saved and where. I am happy Mountain Lion has returned Save As .
So where are all previous versions of Pages, Keynote, etc located so I can delete and free up space on my Mac?
Thanks.

Duplicate the latest version and save it. Delete the original one with all the versions. It does mean going through them one at a time.
You can delete individual versions.. use the drop down triangle at the top > show verions. Then use the same drop down on each version > delete this version.
The versions really don't take up much room as they are similar to the normal Time Machine back up.
Must admit that versions have saved me a couple of times... handy to be able to go back a couple of days at times.

You can't delete it. It's in a hidden folder at the top of the disk that you can't delete unless you are a root user

As admin user of my Mac am I a 'root' user?
I have made visible the Library folder/ Is versions foolder somewhere else?
Thanks.
UNIX has three users: guest, admin and root. Versions are in a hidden folder (.DocumentRevisions-V100). To see it, you need to show hidden files and press your hard drive in Finder, but you need to use Terminal to delete it with root
