When draining a pool take care that there isn't enough ground water around the outside of the pool to lift it out of position, even a concrete pool will float on ground water. and once they are lifted out of the ground you are in big trouble.
I have a 15' above ground pool, when we installed the pool it was a little uneven (not even 1") now that the pool has been up for a while it has settled and now the side that was lower is off by about 3-4". How can I fix this without draining the whole pool?

The first thing you have to look out for is that there isn't to much ground water out side the pool say when its raining or just after rain. because water may be able to build up under the pool and lift it up out of it proper position.
The only way I can imagine doing this would be to dig an agg drain around the pool thereby draining the ground water as it gets to the pool. The problem with this is that you would have to have a point low enough to drain it to or have a sump wit a pump in it which sounds rather expensive depending on how much ground water there is.
