Applications not in application folder?

So i installed parallels Desktop onto my system, and when it installed my applications folder (home-> applications) only showed the windows 8 applications. I have recently uninstalled parallels, but my application folder now doesn't show anything!! I was wondering if there was a way to get them back?? My applications are still in the launchpad, and if i click the applications icon in my sidebar in the finder i can see all my applications. Thanks

You said that only Windows 8 applications were there. As you removed Parallels, you canoot open the Windows virtual machine you probably had, so you cannot see the applications again.
If you want to move applications you use in OS X to that folder, do it only with applications you downloaded from the Internet. You will have problems if you do it with system apps

  • Applications not in 'Home' folder

    For some reason all of my apps are in the sub-folder, 'Applications'. The main 'App' folder is empty. I don't know how this happened. Is there an easy way to move/copy to main folder?
    Thanks!

    Is one of the Application folders in your Home folder and one in the root level (/Applications) of your drive. Usually, Applications are installed to /Applications, not in Users/yourname/Applications.
    Or, is it a subfolder of your Applications folder? In other words /Applications/Applications.
    First let's copy those folders to removable media for safety, if you don't already have a backup.
    Either way you need to check carefully which Applications are real and which are alias. The is an arrow icon on aliases and when you "Get Info" (command - i) or just Preview in Finder, the "kind" will be "alias". Round up the "real" Apps and put them in /Applications. When all are copied into Applications, delete Users/yourname/Applications.

  • Avoid users to run applications not in "Applications" folder

    Hi,
    I am looking for a solution to avoid users (they do not have admin rights and they are AD accounts) to run applications they download from the web.
    If they download a dmg file they can run the application (app file) inside the dmg without having to install it.
    For security reasons, I would like to stop that.
    Thanks a lot for your help.
    Nicky

  • Deleting applications not in applications folder

    I have download a small program called TVU player and wish to delete it but it is not in the applications folder where I could simply drag it to the trash but it seems spread around. It seems to be mostly in User/shared/TVU networks. How can I safely delete it?

    According to the package, it installs in a tvutuneworks folder in the Applications folder and a webplugin in the /Library/Internet Plug-ins folder. There is also a library added to support tcl in sqlite, but you can leave that alone.
    If you say the tvutuneworks folder was in your Shared folder, that is likely because you chose the Shared folder as the install location.
    To see what a package installs and where, take a look at [Suspicious Package| MI100-DY2QW-PGS4Z-EAKXC-75F24] quicklook generator.

  • Installed third party applications not showing Application folder?

    Hi,
    i've installed third party application outside from AppStore. i chosen "Anywhere" option on Gate keeper. however its not proper installation process hence how can i install? if i install third party application which is get .DMG file from some one else and installed. if i install those application its not displaying inside the Application folder on my Mac OS X 10.8.3.
    Please anyone suggest me,
    Thanks in Advance,
    Suresh Balakrishnan.

    if i double click on Xcode icon, Xcode application lauched immediatly. however Xcode is not there in the Application folder.
    Because you didn't drag and drop copy the app into the Applications folder, so your running it from the DMG instead.
    A DMG is basically a disk image volume, like any other seperate hardware volume like a USB thumb drive, a external hard drive, or another partition, except it's virtual and based all in software.
    If you don't know your way around a computer you shouldn't be using Xcode to begin with.

  • Bridge CS2 - application not opening image folder

    All of a sudden I am not able to open a folder of image files in BRIDGE. An ERROR WINDOW opos up thats says "The operation could not be completed. An unknown operating system error has occurred". PLEASE HELP! Thx. Susie

    Just to be sure, can you work on other folders in Bridge? or has everything stopped working? I CANNOT GET A WINDOW TO OPEN IN BRIDGE
    Can you check the folders in the finder, do they have content and are you able to see the previews in the finder, can you open them by double clicking on them in the finder?? NO
    As per Ramón, I also can't imaging the hold down option key while restarting Bridge does not give you the expected window :-( IT'S TRUE!
    Is there any change you have moved Bridge from its original location (the application folder) ? NO

    I installed JDeveloper & then installed two WebCenter plugin thru 'Check for Updates' feature. Now it's showing me option to create 'WebCenter Portal Application', however I am not getting option to create 'WebCenter Application'. How can I get this?
    Thanks.

    WebCenter framework features(Standard Portal features) will enable automatically while creating a new portal application from the jdeveloper
    Still it will allow you to disable the standard portal features while creating the project, You can find the same at step4 of your project creating with the disable option "conigure the application with standard Portal features"

  • Addit application not adding applications....

    I have done everything as it tells me - and it's told me that it will add after during next sync and it doesn't.  I found another post on this (This was the thread: http://forums.palm.com/palm/board/message?board.id=software&thread.id=29898#U156022 ) and the solution for that particular issue was to go to the main website that offers the Addit app but I run a Mac and that didn't work for me - it won't run on my computer - does anyone have a solution for a Mac?
    Thank you!

  • I have a question mark in the place of my mail's icon and i cannot get into my email. I found my email folder in the library ,but it is not in applications. How do i get my email back ?

    have a question mark in the place of my mail's icon and i cannot get into my email. I found my email folder in the library ,but it is not in applications. How do i get my email back ?

    you should look in your applications folder to see if mail is still there. the dock icon is pointing to mail being in your applications folder. it has probably been moved or deleted for some reason from the app folder. do a spotlight search for your mail program. if it is still on your computer, move it back to the applications folder and when you click the question mark, it should see it is back and open. The email folder in your library shouldn't have to be touched. you need mail.app itself.

    (1) Download the Windows Installer CleanUp utility installer file (msicuu2.exe) from the following Major Geeks page (use one of the links under the "DOWNLOAD LOCATIONS" thingy on the Major Geeks page):
    http://majorgeeks.com/download.php?det=4459
    (2) Doubleclick the msicuu2.exe file and follow the prompts to install the Windows Installer CleanUp utility. (If you're on a Windows Vista or Windows 7 system and you get a Code 800A0046 error message when doubleclicking the msicuu2.exe file, try instead right-clicking on the msicuu2.exe file and selecting "Run as administrator".)
    (3) In your Start menu click All Programs and then click Windows Install Clean Up. The Windows Installer CleanUp utility window appears, listing software that is currently installed on your computer.
    (4) In the list of programs that appears in CleanUp, select any iTunes entries and click "Remove", as per the following screenshot:
    (5) Quit out of CleanUp, restart the PC and try another iTunes install. Does it go through properly this time?
