[QUOTE="Templar, post: 1625794, member: 206192"] So here's the deal, I was happily trucking along with Yosemite 10.10 until I decided to update it to 10.10.1. After the update, I had a bug that made it so my iMac would "lag" once every fifteen to twenty seconds for a second or two. That might not sound bad, but it made my mouse "jump", making clicking things awkward at times. Plus, it screwed around with my gaming performance and working in Photoshop. So I installed 10.9 by creating a 200GB partition leaving Yosemite on the larger 550GB partition. I want to delete the Yosemite partition, but there are files (primarily Photoshop files for work) that's around 160GB which won't fit in the 200GB allocation I made for 10.9. I can't resize the partitions, which I was hoping I could do. I thought, "Hey, I'll create this small partition just to get things going, once done I'll resize them and move my important files over to my 10.9 installation, delete 10.10 and combine both partitions into one!". Of course, that's not working. I have an external hard drive, but that's at the office an hour away and I [I]really[/I] don't feel like going back. I'm also not due to go back to work until Monday. Is there any solution for my problem that doesn't involve me traveling two hours to get my external HD, moving my files onto that HD and deleting all partitions while installing 10.9 once again? Here's how my set-up currently looks within Disk Utility: [IMG]http://i.imgur.com/6K3FdJa.png[/IMG] Thanks in advance for taking a look :) [/QUOTE]

How many occurrences of a n-u-m-b-e-r between "d" and "f" in this example...(sdgs6ngklu3gd#f9%)?
