Application does not appear in applications folder

On OS X Mountain Lion, there is an application (not from the Mac App Store) that does not appear in my applications folder, but it DOES appear in Launchpad and I would like to delete it. How can I remove it? Since it is not from the Mac App Store, I cannot click the "x" or drag it to the trash.

Where is the application located if not in the Applications folder? You can use Spotlight to find it. When you do just drag it to the Trash.

    i am new to mac air. Today i installed (unsuccessfully!) MAPLE16 on my mac book air. Now since it does not work properly (it also does not appear in  applications) i decide to delete it. I could not remove it from launchpad . i need urgent help from your side.

    Any third-party software that doesn't install by drag-and-drop into the Applications folder, and uninstall by drag-and-drop to the Trash, is a system modification.
    Whenever you remove system modifications, they must be removed completely, and the only way to do that is to use the uninstallation tool, if any, provided by the developers, or to follow their instructions. If the software has been incompletely removed, you may have to re-download or even reinstall it in order to finish the job.
    I never install system modifications myself, and I don't know how to uninstall them. You'll have to do your own research to find that information.
    Here are some general guidelines to get you started. Suppose you want to remove something called “BrickMyMac” (a hypothetical example.) First, consult the product's Help menu, if there is one, for instructions. Finding none there, look on the developer's website, say www.brickmyrmac.com. (That may not be the actual name of the site; if necessary, search the Web for the product name.) If you don’t find anything on the website or in your search, contact the developer. While you're waiting for a response, download BrickMyMac.dmg and open it. There may be an application in there such as “Uninstall BrickMyMac.” If not, open “BrickMyMac.pkg” and look for an Uninstall button.
    You generally have to reboot in order to complete an uninstallation.
    If you can’t remove software in any other way, you’ll have to erase and install OS X. Never install any third-party software unless you're sure you know how to uninstall it; otherwise you may create problems that are very hard to solve.
    You may be advised by others to try to remove complex system modifications by hunting for files by name, or by running "utilities" that purport to remove software. I don't give such advice. Those tactics often will not work and maymake the problem worse.

  • List of planning applications does not appear

    Hello,
    in EAS i create New Rule -> in Rule Editor displays in right pane -> i click on Select outline -> The Select Database Outline dialog box displays -> when i click on +planning -> nothing is displayed: the list of my planning applications does not appear !!
    is this normal?
    N.B : i use hyperion planning V11.1.1.3
    cheers,

    Did you log into the planning application first before logging into EAS, if the planning application service was recently restarted and there have been no logins to the applications then they won't appear.
    As a test log out of EAS, log into one of the planning applications, log into EAS
    Also be sure that the planning applications have been created to use Business Rules and not Calculation Manager if you want to use EAS.
    If you are still having issues then it may be worth having a read of the following document on Oracle Support - "Troubleshooting Hyperion Business Rules Issues [ID 763345.1]"
    Cheers

  • Try to update firefox--ownloads but ff icon does not appear, nor applications folder.

    Try to download firefox update.
    It downloads on my desktop with an icon that looks like my hard drive icon. No round ff icon, and application folder icon does not appear. What does this mean? What next? Mac OS 10.6.8

    If there are problems with updating or with the permissions then easiest is to download the full version and trash the currently installed version to do a clean install of the new version.
    Download a new copy of the Firefox program and save the disk image (dmg) file to the desktop
    * Firefox 7.0.x: http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all.html
    * Trash the current Firefox application to do a clean (re-)install
    * Install the new version that you have downloaded
    Your profile data is stored elsewhere in the Firefox Profile Folder, so you won't lose your bookmarks and other personal data.

  • Template does not appear in project folder

    Hi
    My template has disappeared from my project. Therefore, I
    have tried reimporting the template to the 'Templates' folder in
    the project folder. When I do this, I do not get an error message.
    But the *.htt file does not appear in the 'Templates' folder and I
    cannot attach it to help texts?? When I open my file manager I can,
    however, see that the *.htt file is indeed placed in the current
    project. Can anybody help?
    Thanks
    Lena

    Yep! These forums are littered with problems caused by
    working over a network. RH is essentially an Access DB and this has
    well documented problems with networks. Work off your hard drive
    and back up to your network each night. That's works for me. Try
    importing your template once you've copied your project to your PC
    and come back if you still have problems. You may have to recreate
    your template as it is not impossible that the .HTT file has become
    corrupted.

  • Downloaded trial app does not appear in Applications folder

    I downloaded the Photoshop CC trial, and my Creative Cloud app manager tells me it's updated. But, I can't find the app anywhere on my Mac OSX 10.8.5 computer - it's not in the Applications folder, which I know how to access from the Finder window. I did a search of my entire computer and there is no sign that this app exists. What am I missing?

  • Application does not appear

    Hello,
    I created a new application in BPC 7.0 for MS. Then I start BPC for Exel and try to choose my new application but there is not it. What do I have to do application will be appeared?
    Regards,
    Veronika.

    Hi Veronica,
    Whenever we create a new application, we need to define member access profile for that particular application. Without this, the application will not be accessible to any users.
    In BPC Admin, go to secutiry -> member access profile. Modify the member access profile. You will be able to see tabs for each of the applications. Go to the tab for your application. Mention the appropriate rights. Ideally, we give "read and write" to all members of category dimension and "read" access to all members of the entity dimension. However, you can customize this based on your requirement. Once the profile is saved, go to BPC excel, go through connection wizard. You will be able to see your new application.
    Hope this helps.

  • Install application step on task sequence - application does not appear in the application list

    Hi,
    I am trying to create a build and capture task sequence and add some application installation steps in the process.
    On Install the following applications step when I click the star to choose which applications I want to install, Office 2010 application is not listed there, even though it is available in software library
    and and I've been installing it successfully from application catalog.
    I tried changing the setting "Allow this application to be installed from the Install Application task sequence action instead of deploying it manually", but it had no effect.

    See http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/hh846237.aspx:
    The applications that are installed must meet the following criteria:
    It must run under the local system account and not the user account.
    It must not interact with the desktop. The program must run silently or in an unattended mode.
    It must not initiate a restart on its own

  • When I save a bookmark to a folder , it does not appear in the folder, only in the recent bookmarks.

    When I bookmark a page and save it to a bookmark folder, the bookmark does not get saved into that folder located in the bookmark toolbar. The bookmarked page only appears under Recently Bookmarked.
    The problem occurs because the bookmark folders that are shown in the bookmark toolbar do not match the bookmark folders that appear under bookmarks located in the menu bar. They are apparently are not synchronized.

    Hi theon, bookmarks can display in several places:
    (1) Bookmarks drop-down menu on the classic menu bar (File, Edit, View...)
    (2) Bookmarks drop-down menu from a button on the Bookmarks toolbar or on another toolbar
    (3) Bookmarks sidebar
    Which of these sounds the closest to what you want?

  • Application does not appear to be sending an email

    Hi
    Not sure that this is the place to ask this question but I am pretty much out of ideas and I know someone will have probably dealt with something similar in the past.
    Basically the problem is
    On a server in our network - inside the firewall and not using any proxy server we have an application deployed which uses Java mail to send an email and the email is in the format
    to: <mobilephoneno@sms_application_smtp_server>
    from:<[email protected]>
    The third party application is defining the first SMTP host in its properties file and the first SMTP host should route the email to the sms_application_smtp_server based on rules that have been set within it. When it gets to this point it is transformed into an SMS and sent to the mobile phone number based on the rules within our SMS routing application
    I know all the ports are listening as I can telnet to them on 25, but whenever the application runs seems to be in a position where it sends an email nothing appears either at the first smtp server - but there are no messages in the log.
    I do not have access to the application code from the third party supplier but can view the server settings for the Unix box it is on and can see nothing that appears to be wrong.
    heeeeeeeelp it is driving me nuts !!!!
    I am confused

    Just got off the phone with Applecare with the same problem and they had me reset the OS. It's easy to do and solved the problem, along with another issue I had with some of the apps not showing as open in the dock.
    Simply shutdown your computer, unplug everything, hold down the power button for 10 seconds, plug everything back in and restart.
    For a complex description of this process go to:
    Here's a link they sent me: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT3964?viewlocale=en_US

  • In the download box, the check box for "always do this for this type of file" is grayed out for the type of file I want, and that application does not appear in the application menu, so how do I set it to perform this function every time?

    The file type in question is InCopy, and the download box acknowledges that program as the type to open it with, but I never want to open it; I always want to save it. This feature works fine with other file types, but not with InCopy. I download thousands of files, so automating this is very important.

  • REPORTS folder does not appear when refreshing dynamic templates

    Hi all,
    I got one issue when refreshing dynamic templates. For one application, the REPORTS folder does not appear under Eexcel folder.
    It works well on my quality environment, but it fails on production server.
    It seems there is no differences in security settings, SP version...
    I already tried deleting Outlooksoft folder, clear and refresh local folder in client options...
    I must miss something but I dont know what to check anymore.
    Any suggestion is welcome.
    Thanks
    Antoine

    Hi Neil,
    I do not have issue with what you mention, everything is ok in Webfolder.
    The problem is in the local folder of every user in My Documents folder.
    There is a folder Outlooksoft there that is refreshed automatically after connecting to BPC.
    Every reports under REPORTS\WIZARDS should be there. Users need to access this folder to open a specific report.
    What is strange is that it looks that it works for some users, but does not work for some other users...
    Might be security settings?

  • Trying to PSE 8 as editor in IPHOTO 11 but the option "In application does not

    I'm trying to use PS Elements 8 as an external editor in iphoto11, but the option "In application" does not appear as an option for Edit in:.  This previously worked but now I only have the option of editing in iphoto.  The move of the menu item from general to advanced seems to have screwed it up.   Any one have a similar problem??

    try renewing your iPhoto preference file -
    A good general step for strange issues is to renew the iPhoto preference file - quit iPhoto and go to "your user name" ==> library ==> preferences ==> com.apple.iPhoto.plist and trash it - launch iPhoto which creates a fresh new default preference file and reset any personal preferences you have changed and if you have moved the iPhoto library repoint to it. This may help
    This does not affect your photos or any database information (keywords, faces, places, ratings, etc) in any way - they are stored in the iPhoto library - the iPhoto preference file simply controls how iPhoto works - which is why renewing it is a good first step.

  • 'Find' function does not appear to work in TextEdit on .txt documents

    Most of the time the 'Find' function on the TextEdit application does not appear to work on .txt documents.  I have verified this by using Find on words that I know are in a document, and it cannot find them.  I've tried different options on the 'Find' function without success.  This appears to have started with version 10.6.8.  Has anyone else had this problem since upgrading to 10.6.8?

    Thanks -- but I swear it worked fine prior to either the 10.6.7 or 10.6.8 updates and now it doesn't.  I'll just keep experimenting and playing around with it and see if I can get it to work.  Maybe the new Lion O.S. coming out will fix it, although I'm not going to rush -- I made the mistake of putting Snow Leopard on right after it came out and had problems with some programs not working properly anymore (like Pro Tools, for example).  Always a good idea to hold off until most of the bugs get fixed.
