Can I uninstall wrong Safari version?

My daughter has OS 10.3.9 and is new to Macs and has just mistakenly downloaded Safari 3 and installed it. Now,whenever she clicks on the dock Safari icon it gives one bounce and doesn't open. In addition she now has other connectivity problems which weren't there before the download. Can she get back to the pre-installed version of Safari (Version 1 I think) in any way. There doesn't seem to be an option to uninstall the Safari 3. She has all the original disks with software install on them, but there may be another way to cure the problem. Any help would be appreciated.

Weston,
In the event, we went with Method 1 first, but she ended up still with a non working version of Safari. Also, her desktop still had the icon on it labelled something like Safari for Tiger 3.1.1. This may have had the suffix dmg. I'm not sure.
Anyway, just as I was about to post this reply, to which I had given you a "Helpful" rating, my daughter phoned to say that she had performed an Erase and Install and everything is now back to normal and she has an internet connection. I am so grateful that correspondents such as yourself give the more nervous amongst us the courage and advice to try some of the fixes. I shall try and convert my "Helpful" rating to a "Solved" but if I fail, please accept our thanks for a job well done.

  • I have two versions of Lightroom installed on my computer, can I uninstall the older version?

    While looking at the "Programs and Features" folder on my Windows 7 computer I discovered that I have two versions of Adobe Lightroom installed on my system. One is Lightroom 5.2, installed on 9/19/2013, and the other is Adobe Photoshop Lightroom 5.5 64-bit, installed on 7/5/2014
      - Can I uninstall the older version?
      - Will uninstalling the older version cause any problems with the newer version?
      - If yes to either question, is there anything I need to do before doing the uninstall (i.e. deactivating, etc.)
    Any advice on how to correct this problem is gratefully appreciated.
    PS; I have the same issue with Muse CC. See: I have two versions of Muse CC installed on my computer, can I uninstall the older version?

    Jim,
    I thought it was odd that I had two versions of Lightroom installed as well. I have been able to track the issue back to an apparent "bug" in the Lightroom 5.2 update that installed a second version of Lightroom in addition to updating the existing version on my computers. At the time, I posted about it at Lightroom 5 installed twice on my laptop. While I never got an answer to my question, which was "Is this normal?" I did hear from others in the forum the experienced the same problem and had the same question. As time passed, later releases updated one of the two installations, but did not effect the second. Hence, two different versions of Lightroom 5 installed on the same computer.
    Uninstalling the older version solved the problem. Thanks

  • How can I uninstall the Safari extension "Facebook Photo Zoom?"

    Hello,
    How can I uninstall the Safari extension "Facebook Photo Zoom?"
    Thanks,
    lenms

    Sorry, den.thed, I've looked 'til I'm blue in the face!  There is but ONE radio button--the "Install Now."  Once you've clicked on it and the extension installs, that same radio button greys out and you can (barely) see the word "Installed" on it, and there is no other button available (see the image below.)   
    I've never seen software where you could not uninstall an extension.
    Thanks,

  • I am a new CC user. Very satisfied.  I just d/l the CC 2014 upgrades.  now I have 2 sets of folders.  Can I uninstall the older version. or do I have to leave it on this machine ?

    I am a new CC user. Very satisfied.  I just d/l the CC 2014 upgrades.  now I have 2 sets of folders.  Can I uninstall the older version. or do I have to leave it on this machine ?

    Understand the uninstall process BUT ...
    Looking at the size of the previous versions vs. the CC 2014 versions, it seems that these newer (2014) versions are smaller in size ... with the exception of SpeedGrade.
    What I have installed so far:
    AE CC = 2.66gb
    AE CC 2014 = 2.03gb
    AU CC = 900mb
    AU CC 2014 = 678mb
    AI CC = 1.81gb
    AI CC 2014 = 907mb
    PS CC = 3.79gb
    PS CC 2014 = 1.99gb
    PR CC = 3.87gb
    PR CC 2014 = 1.54gb
    SG CC = 206mb
    SG CC 2014 = 709mb
    I hope this is right and the downloads didn't leave out anything!! If the programs are lighter, that's a good thing.
    So, is this right?!
    And is it alright to Uninstall the previous versions? (I don't have any plugins, add-on's, etc...)

  • I can not uninstall my old version of quick time.  It says the file cane be found.

    When I try to update quick time it says it need to shut down or uninstall the older version.  Then a window pops up that says the installation file can not be found.  What can I do to get updates?

    many thanks, linda.
    Unfortunately, this sort of trouble has gotten more complicated to deal with ever since Microsoft pulled the Windows Installer CleanUp utility from their Download Center on June 25. First we have to find a copy of the utility.
    Let's try Googling. (Best not to use Bing, I think.) Look for a working download site for at least version 3.0 of the Windows Installer CleanUp utility. After downloading the utility installer file (msicuu2.exe), scan the file for malware, just in case. (I use the free version of Malwarebytes AntiMalware to do single-file scans for that.)
    If the file is clean, to install the utility, doubleclick the msicuu2.exe file you've downloaded.
    Now run the utility ("Start > All Programs > Windows Install Clean Up"). In the list of programs that appears in CleanUp, select any QuickTime entries and click "Remove".
    Quit out of CleanUp, restart the PC and try another QuickTime install. Here a link through to the installers on the Apple Website:
    http://www.apple.com/quicktime/download/
    Does the install go through properly now?
    (If you do find a clean download site for the correct version of CleanUp, please don't tell me where it is. Without wishing to sound paranoid (although I grant it does sound paranoid), there is a non-zero chance that posting links to download locations for the utility here at Discussions leads to that download location being shut down.)

  • Can I uninstall the latest version of itunes  and install a earlier version that I preferred

    I am using win 7 and Itunes 11.1.12. Can I uninstall this version and install version 10 which I preferred Any suggestions appreciated Thanks

    You and thousands of others if you search..
    What I did; Found my back up of the 10.7 installer.  You may have to locate a site on the web to find yours...sorry.
    I used W7 unistaller to completely remove 11.  I made a back up of the media, music only, folder,  this depends on how and where you configured iTunes to store your tunes.
    I then simply installed 10.7 then pointed to backed up music folder to read and sort musik back into the itunes folder. I only did that to ensure there no problems when everything back up.  Everything good!
    Now, many people are have problems with iphones and devices depending on what was synced while in 11, such as cannot sync with older data base and such.  Hopefully others can help you if your in that catagory.

  • Can't uninstall an old version of PSE!

    I'm trying to uninstall an old version of PSE 6 from my computer. I've followed all the instructions as copied below, but I can only find the uninstaller for PSE 13, which I just installed today.
    Under the  /Applications/ Utilities/ Adobe Installers folder, I have 3 items:
    • Adobe ExtendScript Toolkit 2
    • Adobe Photoshop Elements 6
    • Uninstall Photoshop Elements 13
    Nothing that I can see to uninstall PSE 6.  Can anyone help me figure this out?
    Open Finder and navigate to /Applications/ Utilities/Adobe Installers. 
    Start the Uninstaller for contents or application.
    Uninstall Adobe Premiere Elements content
    Uninstall Adobe Premiere Elements
                                 Or
    Adobe Photoshop Elements Content
    Adobe Photoshop Elements
    If you're not planning on reinstalling the application, select Remove Preferences. Otherwise, do not select this option.. 
    Click Uninstall. 

    The pse 6 uninstaller is the one that says Adobe Photoshop Elements 6 in
    /Applications/Utilities/Adobe Installers
    You might want to consider just leaving pse 6 installed so if you need any of the features that were removed from pse 13 or need to run older 32 bit plugins, since pse 13 only can use 64 bit plugins.
    If you really want to get rid of pse 6, unistall pse 13 first, then unistall pse 6 and reinstall pse 13.

  • I have upgraded to newer version of labview, and the older versions of LavVIEW are now piling up. Can I uninstall the older versions? if yes how?

    Do I have to keep all the old versions of LabVIEW as I did not uninstall the older versions, but only downloaded the latest version of labview from the website and installed it. A new version and icon is installed on my PC now. What can I do?

    You asked "Do I have to keep all the old versions...". Of course not. You can do whatever you want. Each version of LabVIEW installs in its own directory, which is what allows you to keep multiple versions installed in case you need to support programs written in earlier version that cannot be upgraded yet for whatever reason. Conflicts may arise if you install older versions later than new ones and you install the libraries for the hardware interfaces like VISA and such. Older versions of these libraries sometimes cause problems with newer versions of LabVIEW.
    If you do not want multiple versions, common practice is to completely uninstall the current version before installing the new one. If you have more than two versions but only want the latest, simply uninstall the older ones from the main NI installer. Depending on how old the versions are that you are uninstalling something with the new one may break so you may need to repair that installation. You may just want to simply uninstall all NI software and then just do a clean install of the latest version. That will likely be your best course of action.

  • How can i uninstall the trial version of illustrator off my computer (mac)?

    I'd like to be able to uninstall the trial version of illustrator off of my mac, so that i can redownload it and actually try it, as i didn't get a chance to trial it the first time!
    Help Please!!

    cara,
    Unfortunately, you can only download a trial version once, no matter whether you used it much, little, or not at all. It only puts the application at your disposal with no tracing of your possible use.
    Back in January or thereabouts, a fresh start was made so you could download a second trial, but no trial since then is repeatable.

  • How can I uninstall the newest version of pages?

  • HT1923 Can't uninstall old itunes version from a Windows XP PC. Where do I get AppleSoftwareUpdate.msi?

    I am trying to update my previous itunes on a Windows XP PC to version 10.6.3.  However, this update did not download when I clicked that option in the itunes popup.
    I then downloaded the current itunes from the Apple download site and tried to install it.  The installation failed because it could not uninstall the current itunes on the PC. 
    I then uninstalled itunes using the Windows 'Add or Remove Programs'.   However when I tried to install the 10.6.3 itunes after doing the uninstall it failed again with the message that it could not unistall itunes.
    I went to the Genius Bar at the local Apple Store.  The technician asked if I had completed the other 5 step required to uninstall itunes from a PC that is on the Apple support website.  I had not.
    Following the instructions on the Apple support for uninstalling itunes I uninstall Quicktime from my PC.  However, the next step was to uninstall AppleUpdateSoftware if it was present.  In was, but when I tried to uninstall it I got a message that AppleSoftwareUpdate.msi was missing.  It is not on my computer hard drive.  Where can I get this file to put it where it needs to be on my hard drive?  Is there an alternative way to uninstall Where do I get AppleSoftwareUpdate from my computer.
    I haven't got to removing Bonjour yet!

    (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 Apple Software Update entries and click "Remove", as per the following screenshot:
    (5) Quit out of CleanUp, restart the PC and try another iTunes install using an iTunesSetup.exe (or iTunes64Setup.exe) downloaded from the Apple Website:
    http://www.apple.com/itunes/download/
    Does it go through properly this time?
