Cant get rid of Symantec Error Message

Back in Feb of this year I installed symantec anti-virus software onto my mbp. I know my mac didn't need it, I did it more out of curiosity and after about a day of playing around with it, I uninstalled it using the app AppCleaner. It wasn't until yesterday, after mapping my drive to see where the space was allotted, that I noticed there was still files linked to this Symantec software. So I started deleted all the files that were associated with it, such as those in >Library>Application Support and in >Library>Preferences. I thought I had rid all of them but now I get an error message every time I reboot and log in that states:
*Symantec AntiVirus Error*
Symantec AntiVirus Auto-Protect could not load the scan engine. Please run liveupdate to get the latest version. (Code 6)
I have tried everything from spotlight searches to going more in dept with the hard drive mapping and still cannot find any more files that could contribute.
Any suggestions on how to get rid of this? Its not detrimental in anyway (I think) just more of an annoyance.
PS: The copy of Symantec AntiVirus I used was an official and authentic copy that I obtained for free through my employer's relation with them

Might be easiest to run their uninstall app.
This might mean you have to reinstall it if it is already deleted or better yet download and just mount the volume to open the folders to get to the uninstaller.

Cant get rid of download error message in garage band learn to play

I had trouble downloading lessons 5 and 7 in the Blues Guitar learn to play. I found a discussion addressing this, and was able to complete the down load by logging into the guest account. I have all the lessons, but now I can't get rid of the error message that says Garage Band still is waiting to download the lessons. When I click on the message it refers me to call the Apple Store. I was in their electronic feedback loop for 15 mins before I bailed. Any ideas?

having this problem when trying to authorise an newly downloaded app in iTunes

Based on the numerous posts regarding iTunes and the App Store, there appears to be an issue at Apple's end. Although Apple has not provided any indication on the cloud status page.

Desktop Manager "disconnected" and I can't get rid of the error message

I just purchased a Blackberry Curve 8530, running v5 software, my computer is Windows 7. I installed the 501_b073_multilanguage software that I downloaded from Blackberry's website. When I launch the Desktop manager I get this message: "Before you begin, verify that your current BlackBerry device is connected to your computer." The troubleshooting posts I've seen on this forum include many tips (the ones I've tried are below). One in particular I can't do is "The desktop manager is showing "disabled."
-Make sure that the user has gone into the desktop manager and selected options > connection settings > detect."
... because I can't get rid of the error message dialoge box, and I can't click on the options menu in the BB Desktop Manager.
I have tried the following:
uninstalled it and reinstalled it twice - 2nd uninstall was a "hard" uninstall where I deleted the registry files by hand
moved the cable to the USB port in the back (after trying both the ports in the front) of the computer
restarted the computer many times
hard booted the phone by removing the battery
plugged in, removed, and replugged in the phone.
Also:
The phone is installing correctly when I plug it in, but the software still doesn't seem to see it.
In the Device Manager, the BlackBerry is showing up under Portable Devices. Double-clicking on it gives me the reassurring "This device is working properly." message.
The Com1 port is working properly also, according to the Device Manager.
Double-clicking on the device manager icon to get the properties shows that the Com1 port is "disconnected" -- when I try to configure it it just pops back to the disconnected state.
If someone has an idea or something I haven't tried I'd sure appreciate it!!
Thanks!

Solved!
Go to Solution.

Okay, folks, after a 3 1/2 hour phone call with a (very patient) telephone support person at Blackberry, here's what I learned.
You can check your USB drivers this way:
Plug in your phone into your USB drive. Assuming your Blackberry is "seen" by your computer...
Go into the Device Manager on your computer (control panel)
Expand the Universal Serial Bus controllers item on the bottom of the list
Right-click on BlackBerry Smartphone and choose Properties
Click on the Driver tab
Click on the Driver Details button
You should see one driver. I saw two. The one the BlackBerry likes is the RimUsb one.
So here's what NOT to do: We tossed the entire driver that was the "extra". This effectively made using my mouse and keyboard impossible, as they are USB, and sent my poor husband into the basement to find a million-year-old keyboard (and then a mouse) with the old fashioned kind of connectors (PS2). Bleh. Don't do that.
Here's what I did that worked (not saything this will work for you -- this modifies the Registry so better do a system backup with that backup and restore if you're nervous about this sort of thing):
From the start menu, choose run, and type regedit to get into the Registry editor.
Follow this file path: Computer, HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE, SYSTEM, CurrentControlSet, Control, Class
Click on: {36FCE60-C465-11CF-8056-4445535400000}
If there's an item on the right called "UpperFilters", delete it. (see pictures)
Hope this helps someone.

Can you manually "google" to the homepage? If so, then the homepage is OK, just re-save the homepage as your default page in Internet Options by selecting "use current".

I've just seen this message for the first time and it's showing on 10 devices.

A few weeks ago my wifi button went "gray". I couldn't turn it off or on, now it has an error message saying it has been three weeks since it was backed up and I can't turn it off or get rid of the error message. any suggestions?

Thanks, that got rid of the error message, but my wifi is still off and the button is "grayed out" won't let me turn it on. The message says "location accuracy is improved when Wi-Fi is turned on". Can anyone tell me how turn it back on?

Reboot the iPad by holding down on the sleep and home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons.

How do I get rid of an error message that comes up on opening the Photoshop Elements 8 Organizer?

When I double-click on the Adobe Photoshop Elements 8 desktop icon,
an error messsage appears. The title line says:
OWL ORPHANAGE: PhotoshopElementsEditor.exe - System Error
Then the message ;
The program can't start because CoreFoundation.dll is missing from your computer. Try reinstalling the program to fix this problem.
I did deactivate, uninstall, and reinstall the program. Still got this message.
When I click OK the error message flickers, then reappears. I click again, same thing. 3rd click, the message disappears and the Organizer opens.
I can get Elements 8 to open, but why this message first, and is there a way to either download the missing file or just get rid of the message?
I did do a computer search and there is no CoreFoundation.dll on my computer.

How do you get rid of an error message

I tried sending an email thru Imap and it didn't go thru
No I get this constant error message about email n ot sent
I deleted email from the outbox, but the error message won't go away.
How do you get rid of it?
Thanks
Alan
Post relates to: Pre p100eww (Sprint)

I also have this problem, with an email I mistakenly attempted to send through my RoadRunner account (which doesn't allow sending if you're not using them as your ISP).
I've deleted the email from my out box, but I keep getting the notices, even after a reset.
Tapping on the error message brings up the Outbox, with no messages. :-( Tapping on the header brings up the message "Login credentials rejected. Update your password." Tapping on that message brings up the "Edit Road Runner" scene.

How to get rid of sync error message

Hello,
When I first installed CC on my computer, our company's proxy was refusing the connections to the Adobe cloud servers and I couldn't sync my test file "test.indd".
From that moment I'm getting the "unable to sync "test.indd" due to server error" message.
After having determinated all the server ips that Adobe uses in the Amazon cloud and added manually the exeptions to our proxy server, syncing files finally worked. Great thanks to Adobe for not giving the server ips out and not helping at all.
Syncing files now works but I keep receiving the "unable to sync "test.indd" due to server error" message.
I have tried to recreate the file with the exact filename and sync it again but that doesn't solve my problem.
As a paying customer (7 x CC for teams licences) I contacted the Adobe support and they told me that they don't do any support for server problems !???!!!!! and redirected me to this forum page http://helpx.adobe.com/creative-cloud/kb/arent-my-files-syncing.html which has nothing to do with my problem. Can't find any words to describe that customer support...
Maybe there is someone in this community willing to do the job of Adobe support and help me?

Thanks for your reply Mylenium,
Sorry I forgot to mention my system: Windows 7 Pro 64Bit SP1.
In C:\users\You\AppData\Roaming I find many cache related files, but only a few that are not related to any specific CC app:
C:\Users\***\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\CEPServiceManager4\cache\ExtensionManifest
C:\Users\***\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\Common\Media Cache
C:\Users\***\AppData\Roaming\Adobe\Common\Media Cache Files
I have backuped those files, removed from their respective folders and restarted the CC Desktop app but the message is still popping up.
Does anyone know in which file(s) the sync cache is stored exactly? I can't find any information about that on the net nor forum.

I reinstalled hoping it would get rid of the error message that pops up each time i open it TypeError: Components.classes[cid] is undefined

When I open up Mozilla i get this error message--TypeError: Components.classes[cid] is undefined
also when i am working on my real estate web site and pull up a name i get the same messag. At the top it always says-- Java Script Application

That error is caused by an incompatible/malfunctioning add-on. To identify the culprit follow the procedure in the [[troubleshooting extensions and themes]] article. One add-on that has caused this error for some is AVG safe search.
