Can I remove some applications permanently from my PowerBook?

When I don't play or use some applications on my iPhone, I just uncheck the application on iPhone > Applications of iTune, and syncing to remove from iPhone. But is there a way to remove the applications permanently from my iPhone > Applications of iTune on my PowerBook?
Thanks in advance for help.

Select the app, tap the delete key on your keyboard or use the iTunes Edit menu -> delete. Select the "keep files" button if you want to keep the app in your iTunes mobile applications folder, otherwise select "Move to Trash".

How Can I Remove An Application Icon From My Desktop?

Every time I open Google Earth or Firefox, I little icon pops up on my desktop as a "disk". To make it go away I have to eject it. Surely there has to be a way to open a program and not have this happen. I'm sure it's an easy fix, but I'm still fairly new to this. Thanks to anyone who can tell me what to do!

OK...I just figured out!
When I dragged the icon down to my dock, I actually used the one from the volume instead of the one from my applications folder. Therefore it always wanted to open the .dmg file instead of the actual program. I THINK I said that all correctly! Thanks for the help though, you gave me the idea to try something different than I was and I found the solution.

Can't remove some nonexistent podcasts from my library.

I have a small problem, I have four podcasts to which I'm no longer subscribed. The problem is, I can't take them out of my library. I made a smart playlist to find them, but since they don't come up under 'Music' I'm unable to delete them.
I don't have a recent backup of my iTunes Directory, is there any way to remove these renegade podcasts?

Since I discovered my own solution, I will document it here:
1. Copied the Original Backup files from my first TM backup set into their original folders using Finder
2. Used spotlight to find these files in the folder
3. Start TM and it can find this folder then right click and "Delete All Backups..." of the folder and TM actually deletes the folders from the backup set, hardlinks etc. through the following backups....
4. Exit TM and trash/delete the duplicate I created from the backup set
Cool

How can I remove an application icon from the loc. bar and prevent it from auto loading?

I don't know the "lingo" of how-to's with Firefox; but I subscribed to www.catalogchoice.org. Somehow, the icon appears to the right of my print icon in the location bar and automatically pops-up when I go to any website. I can't find how to remove it from the toolbar and remove it from Firefox. I cancelled my subscription with them but continue to have this annoyance.

Use a compressed image type like PNG or JPG to save the screenshot.
Start Firefox in <u>[[Safe Mode|Safe Mode]]</u> to check if one of the extensions (Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Extensions) or if hardware acceleration is causing the problem (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox/Tools > Add-ons > Appearance).
*Do not click the Reset button on the Safe mode start window or otherwise make changes.

How can I remove some themes from Keynote??

How can I remove some themes from Keynote??

What a co-incidence... I just deleted those same goodies. They were in /Library/Application Support/Keynote-folder on my machine. I just deleted the whole folder, cause there seemed to be nothing more but those downloaded files. And Keynote worked great afterwards. There seemed to be another folder for iWork09, which is not to be removed.

Can you remove some of the Default applications

I want to give an iPod Touch to my mother who is technically challenged and doesn't have WiFi.
I only want the iPod functionality, not the browsers, email, maps, or any other feature.
Is there a way to disable or remove default apps that you don't want?
ps: I do not want an iPod classic., it''s interface is harder to learn than the touch.

I too would like to remove some of the default apps. Personally, I find the YouTube, Stocks, and Maps, useless to me and its just a waste of icon space. And whats with the "The touch may not be for you". Seriously, if someone wants a touch but doesn't want some of the default apps, that doesn't mean the touch is not for someone. I think it would be a smart move for Apple to revise the iPod (and iPhone, if people can't remove default apps on there) so that we may remove the default apps that we don't use. It makes absolutely no sense to just "move" the app to the back if we don't even use the app. That's like saying "you may not have any use for this app, but its here because we want to force you to keep the junk we give you". And it sounds a lot like a Microsoft move for the all the Windows operating systems they have released (up to Vista, so far) forcing Internet Explorer on all its users and not allowing us to remove it because it was integrated into the Operating System. Supposedly, Microsoft is growing up and letting the user to actually disable (maybe even remove) Internet Explorer in the upcoming Windows 7. What about Mac OS X, does it force Safari on its users, like its forcing some of these unnecessary apps onto the iPod Touch? I wouldn't don't know, I don't earn quite enough money to buy myself an iMac or MacBook (and I've even heard from several people that its more expensive to get a gaming Mac than a gaming PC with similar hardware configuration). Only Apple product I own so far is an iPod Touch.
But I will give Anna credit. Anna at least answered the question.
The question was "Can you remove some of the default applications" and a response saying "What is your mother going to use it for? Maybe the Touch is not the right device for her." by "D'Fish'N'Seas" does not answer the question at all. The question has nothing to do with what the mother is going to use the iPod for, so don't post a response like that, its one of the reasons that causes short tempered people to flame other people.
Ok, so since Anna answered the question that Ron asked. I have a question related to this topic, and if Ron is still wanting to remove some default apps, I'm sure he would like an answer to the question too. So, here is my question: Has anyone developed an app that would allow us to remove the default apps, or a tool that will guide us in removing some default apps?
And preferably the app or tool be in the most legal possible way. Wouldn't want to ask for something that is illegal.

There is no brightness toolbar unless your iPhone is jailbroken. If so, you can try to restore to remove the JB.
The only place brightness exists is under Settings.

How can I remove the Demo Viewer from my MacBook?

How can I remove the Demo Viewer from my MacBook?

Drag it to the Trash.
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. AppDelete
    3. Automaton
    4. Hazel
    5. AppCleaner
    6. CleanApp
    7. iTrash
    8. Amnesia
    9. Uninstaller
10. Spring Cleaning

I have downloaded Photoshop CC. Can I remove now Photoshop CS6 from my computer

I have downloaded Photoshop CC. Can I remove now Photoshop CS6 from my computer.

Hi there,
You can have both Adobe Photoshop CC and Adobe Photoshop CS6 on the same system and both will work fine.
In case you need to remove photoshop CS6 from your system, you will first have to deactivate it so save the activation count which you can use it for the future to reactivate.
Activation:
Make sure that your computer is connected to the Internet.
Start the application.
Choose Help > Deactivate and choose one of the following options.
Deactivate or Suspend Activation. These options deactivate the software but retain licensing information. Choose one of these options if you want to temporarily deactivate the software, and you're planning to activate on this computer again.
Deactivate permanently. This option deactivates the software and removes the licensing information from your computer. Enter the serial number again if you want to use the software on this computer.
Deactivation:
CS6: You log in with your Adobe ID to activate your software when you install it or within the first seven days of use. Follow the steps below.
Steps:
Make sure that your computer is connected to the Internet.
Start the application.
Choose Help > Activate. (If this option is dimmed, you've already activated your software)
Log in with your Adobe ID (usually your email address) to activate your software. If you don’t have an Adobe ID, you see an option to create one.
Optional (CS5 & earlier): After you activate, also register your Adobe product for faster and easier access to support and upgrades.
If you need the free download link for CS6, you can visit [ http://www.adobe.com/downloads/other-downloads.html ]
Thank you

What characters are you talking about exactly and why would you want to remove any?
There is really no way to modify Apple's keyboards or add your own in iOS, but there are some apps that may provide a work around.

How can I remove dropdown calendar menu from date/time field.

I set up a javascript calculation based on the input of a date field. As long as the user enters the date manually the script works fine. If user attempts to select date by drop down menu then script will not work. How can I remove the calendar feature from the Date field?

You may have to wire custom script to get you what you need. That would probably work on 'exit' event.
Just you give you better Idea here is some thing I have on a date field. If user types his own date instead of picking from calendar this code checks whether it is valid date or not and returns to the same field either they enter valid date or clear the field.
This is FormCalc script. You may get the idea how this works and make it work for you using the same logic either in FormCalc or JavaScript.

My Mac G-4 OS X will not image an icon of the zip disk with I inserted into my computer's built-in Zip Drive, therefore I can not remove the zip disk from my computer. What can I do?

My Mac G-4 OS X will not image an icon of the zip disk with I inserted into my computer's built-in Zip Drive, therefore I can not remove the zip disk from my computer. What can I do?

Thanks Old Comm Guy, BD Aquam and Texas Mac Man for youradvice and reply to my question
and problem with my Zip Drive. However:
    1. Depressing mouse buttonon start up did not eject the zip disk.
    2. To examine front of zipdrive, I had to remove many screws and several plastic case
         coverings. Upon doing thatI discovered that, unfortunately, there is no whole in front
          of mybuilt-in zip hardware drive for me to insert a paper clip to manually eject zipdisk.
      3. I went to the Utilities folder in myMac OS X Application folder, but I could not find
           theiomega zip drive in there.
Also, I did go into my "9" System folder and thento the Extensions folder within it and did find an icon of an
Iomega Driver. When double clicking on it a window came upstating I was opening the application
"ColorSync Extension" for thefirst time, and asking if I was sure I wanted to open this application.
Uponclicking open nothing happened - nothing opened.
I also went into the "System X" folder>Libraryfolder>Extension folder>IomegaSAM.ket icon and double
clicked on it and asmall window opened stating "Compiling file List", however nothingopened it just
continued to compile, so I closed it.
Within my Mac OS X HD> Applications>Iomega folder>Iomega Tools.app a smallwindow opened up
with several options (Erase, Protect, Disk Info and DriveInfo). Clicking on the Drive Info a message says:
"No Iomega Drives or noIomega Driver found. Therefore, Ihave gone to Mac, Iomega and other websites
trying to find a Driver for thebuilt-in Zip Drive in my Mac G-4 OS X 10.4.11, but have not really found anythat work.
CAN ANYONE TELL ME IF THERE IS A WEBSITE WHERE I CANDOWNLOAD A NEW DRIVER FOR MY ZIP DRIVE?
Thanks,     Peterfromcrystallake

When using iPhoto can I remove some of the default options such as faces or flagged etc. from the left bar. There are more bits than I need for my basic use.

Hello Susan,
Not sure if I have fully understood your question but have you tried ...
iPhoto > iPhoto help > browse help > view and organise. Perhaps this touches on some of your needs.
Usually, best results for questions come from posting to the forum directly related to the question, in this case iPhoto. That tends to find the gurus
Would you like me to ask the hosts to relocate your question?
