HT4759 How to Completely Uninstall iCloud? Office 2007 Save As Crashes

I can no longer use "Save As" in Office 2007 since I enabled ICloud. Word and Excel Crash. And Outlook does not seem to be about to send more than one email at a time. I have to select the Send/Receive button right after I create a new email. If I wait and create a second email, the first email in the outbox changes status from ready to send to cannot send. And even if I open it and try to send it, it will not send. I have to re-create it.
I want to know how to thoroughly uninstall ICloud. Other posters on Microsoft (Girish M) and Apple (SkinnyNick) have indicated that the problem is related to ICloud. And I can confirm that I started having problems right after enabling ICloud. Here are the references:

https://discussions.apple.com/thread/4607859?start=0&tstart=0
I spent a lot of time trying to trouble shoot this problem. I ran the Office install to repair. This did not work. I uninstalled all Office 2007 related products. I then manually purged all directories relating to office including the Common Shared Directories. Then, I ran Microsoft's FixIt to uninstall Office to make sure everything was uninstalled. Then, I reinstalled Office 2007 and it still failed. I thought about installing Office 2010, but the second post (above SkinnyNick) indicates that this would not work.
So, I am looking for a way to uninstall iCloud including that parts that is causing this problem. Now, the second post (above) from
SkinnyNick) says that he tried to uninstall iCloud but this did not fix the problem. He finally reconfigured iCloud by de-selecting Outlook, but I would rather completely remove iCloud.
Can anyone provide instructions on how to completely remove iCloud so that my Office 2007 products will function again using Save As?
Thanks,
Rob

As a Windows Application Developer who has more than 28 years of professional development experience, I can tell you that anything is possible in terms of how developers implement their applications. I have seen just about everything under the sun, and it would not surprise me if Apple's iCloud not only places files in key Windows directories, but it may use configuration information in a file as opposed to the Window Registry to control how their application behaves. And this would prevent “System Restore" from fixing the problem. Configuration information can be stored in many places. And, even if you do use the Windows Registry to control how your application works, you can key off of new files (like a user profile file) to control how your application to behaves. Csound1, you have been very generous with your time, and I am very grateful for your advice. Thank you.

Switching to MAC from Windows: How to open files in Office 2007 VMFusion?

Dear all,
Intro:
I switched to MAC and now cannot find the solution to a simple problem.
First: I need an Office 2007 PowerPoint FULLY compatible solution.
What did not work: IWork, NeoOffice, Office 2008 (this is not fully compatible with Office 2007 Files)
I also had problems with: Parallels (not stable, too many hangups), codeweaver crossover (office files do not even open sometimes, good idea but not suitable for serious office jobs)
Now I have VMWare Fusion with WinXP and Office 2007 as this seems to be the only truly stable and best solution to run Office 2007 on Mac
Question:
How to open files in Office 2007 on MAC VMWare Fusion easily?
It would be nice to spotlight the file and click and it opens in powerpoint or excel or word 2007 in Virtual Machine.
The only known solution to me is to use the Windows explorer to navigate to the file and then open it from Fusion WinXP. This is very cumbersome and honestly makes me think of getting back to a windows machine as I work with office frequently.
Thank you for your help.

Thank you for the quick reply.
Yes, I have Office 2007 installed. The problem is that to open files in Fusion virtual machine I have to use the windows explorer and navigate to the file to open it. Now that I have the mac I want to use the good feature of spotlight. So when I search and find the file I want to open I cannot click on it on the mac (or in finder) but I have to switch back to the virtual machine, locate the file again and open it from windows.
You might think - ok, why not skip the first step of using spotlight, and look up the file in windows explorer before anything else?
Correct, but I know from parallels that there is a file association possible to directly access the file in office 2007.
This does not seem possible in Fusion - So the question is whether there is a possibility on the mac to associate the file and to click on it in finder/spotlight and the office 2007 application in fusion opens the file. So far I could not find anything.
Thanks

Maps on N80: How to completely uninstall before re...

Nokia Maps worked fine on my N80. Installed on the memory card, with maps for England and some parts of France and Spain. For some reason it now crashes when 'show on map' is used, whether it's from a new search or a recent search. It crashes just at the point it is zooming in.
I tried uninstalling and reinstalling however the same thing happens. I have deleted all maps via Nokia Map Loader and since reloaded them.
I would like to know which system folders contain settings etc. for Maps so that I may again uninstall the app, completely this time, and try re-installing.
As I mentioned, Maps is installed on a memory card. I wouldn't know when the crashes started, in relation to other activity on the device - it may have been when I added new maps, or it may have been since installing a 3rd party app, I'm not certain but I'd just like to know how to completely uninstall Maps without having to scrub the device or memory card.

Hi dougalzene
Unfortunately on this manufacturer's sponsored forum, I would have to say that the only way of deleting the "installation log" would be to reformat your device.

Word 2003 w/ Office 2007 compatibility pack crashes after writing PDF

Writing PDF from Word 2003 SP3, all patched, using (most recently) Acrobat 7.1.0 has for some months crashed on my system after the PDF is written but just before the Acrobat window closes and control of Word is returned to the user. Word is hung so severely that it is not possible to close it with Task Manager. And, it happens every time, whether from a single-page document or a >300 page API document with extensive graphics, links etc.
The generated PDF is complete and valid, but has not been closed, so at this point it cannot be accessed. No choice but to reboot, after which the PDF can be accessed and is just fine. Word shrapnel (temporary files) litter the folder because it never closed properly.
Searching the net I could never find anything that sounded like my problem. It felt to me like a font issue. On a hunch, I uninstalled the Office 2007 compatibility pack (which comes with Vista fonts that I've never used), and along with it, several associated Office 2007 security updates and service pack 1 for the compatibility pack.
Once again I can write PDF's without hanging Word. If I had nothing better to do with my time, I might try reinstalling the compatibility pack, its service pack and the updates one by one to see when (or if) the problem might return... but this has caused me enough grief so all I'm prepared to do is post this information in the hope that it might help someone else.
BTW - I also use Solid Documents PDF Converter once in a blue moon to create Word docs from PDF files. It also has PDF generation capability, which I tried as a troubleshooting measure. Same result. Clearly this is nothing to do with Acrobat per se.

Sad to report that a few days later, the problem had returned, so my joy was short-lived. Now it's even more mysterious than ever. Why would uninstalling a compatibility pack provide *temporary* relief?

How to uninstall MS office 2007 if i already loaded office 2011?

I have a new macbook pro retinal display. both MS office 2007 band 2011 are loaded, as I migrated the old computer on to this. I am trying to uninstall 2007, but the uninstall feature does not need to work. how can I do this? thanks

You needed to uninstall this old Office first. It is not a Mac version. You cannot run the Windows uninstaller. So, see the following. Of course not all will work exactly on the Mac as on a Windows box, but you can try to hunt down everythat that belongs to the Windows version and toss it. You can start by locating a Windows folder for Office in your Applications folder and removing it.
Uninstalling Software: The Basics
Most OS X applications are completely self-contained "packages" that can be uninstalled by simply dragging the application to the Trash. Applications may create preference files that are stored in the /Home/Library/Preferences/ folder. Although they do nothing once you delete the associated application, they do take up some disk space. If you want you can look for them in the above location and delete them, too.
Some applications may install an uninstaller program that can be used to remove the application. In some cases the uninstaller may be part of the application's installer, and is invoked by clicking on a Customize button that will appear during the install process.
Some applications may install components in the /Home/Library/Applications Support/ folder. You can also check there to see if the application has created a folder. You can also delete the folder that's in the Applications Support folder. Again, they don't do anything but take up disk space once the application is trashed.
Some applications may install a startupitem or a Log In item. Startupitems are usually installed in the /Library/StartupItems/ folder and less often in the /Home/Library/StartupItems/ folder. Log In Items are set in the Accounts preferences. Open System Preferences, click on the Accounts icon, then click on the LogIn Items tab. Locate the item in the list for the application you want to remove and click on the "-" button to delete it from the list.
Some software use startup daemons or agents that are a new feature of the OS. Look for them in /Library/LaunchAgents/ and /Library/LaunchDaemons/ or in /Home/Library/LaunchAgents/.
If an application installs any other files the best way to track them down is to do a Finder search using the application name or the developer name as the search term. Unfortunately Spotlight will not look in certain folders by default. You can modify Spotlight's behavior or use a third-party search utility, EasyFind, instead.
Some applications install a receipt in the /Library/Receipts/ folder. Usually with the same name as the program or the developer. The item generally has a ".pkg" extension. Be sure you also delete this item as some programs use it to determine if it's already installed.
There are many utilities that can uninstall applications. Here is a selection:
    1. AppZapper 2.0.1
    2. AppDelete 3.2.6
    3. Automaton 1.50
    4. Hazel
    5. AppCleaner 2.1.0
    6. CleanApp
    7. iTrash 1.8.2
    8. Amnesia
    9. Uninstaller 1.15.1
10. Spring Cleaning 11.0.1

How to completely uninstall a downloaded program from my macbook pro

I am trying to uninstall a program that I downloaded from the internet and do not use anymore. However the drag and drop into the trash bin does not do it because it is still in my applications folder. How do I completely uninstall it from my macbook pro?

Typically there are a couple of ways.
1. What you did followed by emptying the trash, and
2. Use the uninstaller that may have been bundled in the package.
If available, you should run the uninstaller provided by the application.

How to completely uninstall an app ?

Been using Arch for over 2 years by now. There's just a small thing bugging me. I know I can remove an app nearly completely with the
pacman -Rns <name>
But I was wondering how could I completely uninstall the app ... like remove all the config files, the stuff in /usr and the entries in various menus and so on. I do understand it might not be possible, but I was just wondering whether there was something like ... Revvo Uninstaller for Arch linux ?

gapo wrote:Sorry I wasn't clear. Pacman does not remove my configurations that the application creates.
I installed wine once and had a hell of a time removing all the entries it made in pcmanfm.
I was hoping for something other than deleting them by hand.
Those files are not the responsibility of pacman. Deleting them would be analogous to deleting the Text files you've created when you decide to uninstall nano....

HT4759 how can i install icloud to my mac which is running on Mac OS X version 10.6.8?

how can i install icloud to my mac which is running on Mac OS X version 10.6.8 ?

You must first upgrade to 10.7.5 or later.
Upgrading from Snow Leopard to Lion or Mavericks
To upgrade to Mavericks you must have Snow Leopard 10.6.8, Lion, or Mountain Lion installed. Purchase and download Mavericks (Free) from the App Store. Sign in using your Apple ID. The file is quite large, over 5 GBs, so allow some time to download. It would be preferable to use Ethernet because it is nearly four times faster than wireless.
     OS X Mavericks- System Requirements
       Macs that can be upgraded to OS X Mavericks
         1. iMac (Mid 2007 or newer) — Model Identifier 7,1 or later
         2. MacBook (Late 2008 Aluminum, or Early 2009 or newer) —
             Model Identifier 5,1 or later
         3. MacBook Pro (Mid/Late 2007 or newer) — Model Identifier 3,1 or later
         4. MacBook Air (Late 2008 or newer) — Model Identifier 2,1 or later
         5. Mac mini (Early 2009 or newer) — Model Identifier 3,1 or later
         6. Mac Pro (Early 2008 or newer) — Model Identifier 3,1 or later
         7. Xserve (Early 2009) — Model Identifier 3,1 or later
To find the model identifier open System Profiler in the Utilities folder. It's displayed in the panel on the right.
Are my applications compatible?
         See App Compatibility Table — RoaringApps.
Upgrading to Lion
If your computer does not meet the requirements to install Mavericks, it may still meet the requirements to install Lion.
You can purchase Lion by contacting Customer Service: Contacting Apple for support and service - this includes international calling numbers. The cost is $19.99 (as it was before) plus tax. It's a download. You will get an email containing a redemption code that you then use at the Mac App Store to download Lion. Save a copy of that installer to your Downloads folder because the installer deletes itself at the end of the installation.
     Lion System Requirements
       1. Mac computer with an Intel Core 2 Duo, Core i3, Core i5, Core i7,
           or Xeon processor
       2. 2GB of memory
       3. OS X v10.6.6 or later (v10.6.8 recommended)
       4. 7GB of available space
       5. Some features require an Apple ID; terms apply.

How to completely uninstall air app(clear up user files under app directory)?

In the adobe air 1.1 install/uninstall document, it says "Removing an AIR application removes all files in the application directory. However, it does not remove files that the application may have written to outside of the application directory. "
But it's not true. I found you cannot completely uninstall the app if there is any user files under app directory. If the user re-install the app, it will reminder the user "some error has occurred ...because an application with that name already exists at the selected installation location.... ".
How to get rid of this problem if the user didn't clear up the folder manually before re-install? If it's a limitation of adobe air, anyone could give me any evidence from official documents? Cause I have to persuade the user to accept it Thank you.

Psythik wrote:After returning my 6GB Zen Micro to the store (due to the fact that I filled it up quicked than I would've liked), I decided to go with the Zen Sleek player instead. Problem is, my computer still has the Zen Micro's drivers installed and apparantly it's conflicting with my Sleek because my computer won't recgonize it as a Zen Sleek even after installing the drivers (it just recgonizes it as a generic mp3 player). I can still transfer files to it as a would with a generic mp3 device in My Computer. Problem is, ID3 tags aren't properly sent this way (which is annoying when I want an album organized by track number).
You shouldn't need to uninstall the Micro, it won't conflict. If tags aren't being sent properly then there might be some issue with the tags being read from the files. Check with a dedicated tagging program, and rewrite the tags perhaps on some test files.
I'm assuming it's a Sleek with v2.xx firmware?
