Can't get rid of carbonite icon from menubar

Got rid of carbonite and it no longer appears in my system preferences. However it is still in my menubar at the top right and it has an x through it. How do I get rid of that? Any help appreciated.

When I couldn't find a Carbonite folder in Applications (I had previously trashed it) I Googled how to get rid
of Carbonite icon and found a way to find the hidden Carbonite folder.
I had to:  1/ Control click on Finder on the dock and select ‘Go to Folder’.
               2/ Typed /Library/Application Support/ into the window that appears.
               3/ There was the Carbonite folder with 4 documents in it.
I moved the whole folder into AppZapper free demo application, and BOOM icon's gone.  I had to restart to see the icon was actually gone.  AppZapper is pretty cool too.

  • Can't get rid of ISIToolBox icons from the toolbar...

    ...every time I open a pdf, these icons are in the toolbar, taking up real estate.  I can uncheck them from the toolbar menu and get rid of them.  But who wants to do 4 extra mouse clicks every one of the tens of times they open a document each day?  Any ideas for permanently getting rid of these?

    Uninstalling would certainly get it done.  But what if I want to use it?  Reinstall?
    There's already a pull-down menu (along with File, Edit, View, etc) for the ISI tools.  Why does it have to be so damn invasive?  Why can't I just ask it not to automatically put the icons in my toolbar?

  • Urgent help......can't get rid of adobe icon....

    Hello,
    I'm using Mac OS X 10.5.8
    In my utilities, i discover this
    There's that Adobe Flash Player Install Manager..........when i click this icon, it's asking
    me for my password.......which I straightaway click the cancel button, as from the news
    today, I know that's a malware. No installations made whatsoever.
    But I can never get rid of that icon above completely from the utilities, when i try to trash it,
    this comes up -
    What to do now? I'm afraid if i keyed in name and password, the opposite might
    happen.....as I don't want to install this adobe flash player......any solutions to my problem?
    Appreciate all the replies, thanks.

    If I click on the icon itself......this will come up
    When I click uninstall, also, same thing asking for password...... if i do so,
    I know I'm done....... when i click quit, it'll just close the window....
    Just couldn't figure out how to completely erase it out of my Mac 10.5.8 system....

  • How, please, can I get rid of the icons in the bookmarks toolbar so I have space for more bookmark names? Thank you

    I try to get as many items as I can in the bookmarks menu toolbar (typically using 3 letter names). F4 adds an icon next to each name - taking up valuable space. How, please, can I get rid of the icons in the bookmarks toolbar so I have space for more bookmark names? Thank you.

    If you remove the names then you may have a problem with organizing or searching for bookmarks.<br />
    If you do not want to use the extension then you can achieve the same effect with code in userChrome.css<br />
    That is what I would do.
    Add code to userChrome.css below the @namespace line.

  • Can't get rid of account icon photo in mail header area

    How can I get rid of the thumbnail photo icon in the mail header area when I send an e-mail in Mail?
    It is one of the supplied icons that is in system preferences for "accounts", to distinguish my account from my wife's on our iMac G5 (10.4.10). I recently only selected this icon....the boxer dog....but there was nothing in that area before when I used the generic sillohuete as my account log-in identifier.
    Basically, I don't want to be sending e-mails with a dog's photo....as much as I like dogs.
    I have read how to ADD a custom photo in .Mac preferences/profile but, I didn't see how to get rid of one and I did not consciously choose to add the photo that is there now.....it just appeared after I changed it in System Preferences/Accounts. I understand that it might appear in iChat, but, I am not/wasn't using iChat.

    Those photos don't actually get sent. They are a "feature" of Mail. You probably have a "Me" card in your address book? Get rid of the picture there, and it should get rid of the picture in the header region of your emails as displayed in Mail.app. But, like I said, those don't actually get sent, anyways. Got Windoze at work? Send an email to yourself at your work email address -- you'll see -- no boxer dog. But, please pay a visit to http://www.apple.com/macosx/feedback/ and let them know what you think of this feature.

  • Can't get rid of sync icon in menu bar

    I just sold this powerbook to a friend and I'm having problems getting rid of my identity for her.
    1) I can't get rid of the sync icon in the menu bar (or whatever it's called)
    2) I can't get to the place in the system preferences where this is enabled because I have removed my .Mac identity from this system
    3) Even though the system no longer has a .Mac identity it still seems to want to sync
    4) I removed all of my contacts and groups from my address book, but each time I restart the system they all come back.

    Hold down the CMD key and drag the sync icon off the menu bar.
    If you're selling a computer to someone else, you should sell it in the state you bought it. So just re-install the original OS from the original disks provided with the computer. That will wipe any of your personal info, including all the stuff you don't know where it is.

  • Can't get rid of an icon on my desktop

    I am unable to get rid of an icon on my iMac desktop. I am running OS X 10.2.8. It is a Word document. Every time I try to trash it, I get the following response:
    The item “X.doc” is being used by another task right now. (Other tasks include moving, copying, or emptying the Trash.)
    Try again when the task is complete.
    Well, the task (whatever it is) never seems to be complete. How do I get rid of this sucker?
    Thanks,

    3. From the File menu, choose Save As

    1. Launch Terminal.

  • Premiere Pro keeps shutting down and I can't get rid of video clip from timeline

    Lately, Premiere Pro keeps bringing up a message when I'm working on my project that says "serious error, Adobe Premier Pro needs to shut down". It's happened four times now. I've tried restarting the computer, uninstalling some programs I wasn't using, and even running updates that were needed. Still no luck. Also, in between shutdowns, there's a clip on my timeline that I imported from YouTube, and I can't get rid of it when I click "Cut" or "Clear". Any idea on why these things are happening?

  • When I open on Mozilla Firefox, several identical items open on bar at bottom of page, when only one is needed, and I can't get rid of them apart from closing the whole lot.

    Different tabs used to appear at the top of the page (Yahoo), which I could easily close. This has stopped. When I click on Mozilla Firefox on my desktop, about 6 little boxes appear at the bottom of my page, at least two of them being mozilla, and I can't get rid of them except by closing down the internet. If I go through Talk Talk, (a second email address) and get to Yahoo this way, this doesn't happen, but I always prefer to use Mozilla Firefox.

    hello, can you try to replicate this behaviour when you launch firefox in safe mode once? if not, maybe an addon is interfering here...

  • Can't get rid of itunes icon on desktop

    Already have iTunes showing on dock on bottom of display and now have iTunes icon on desktop display as well. Tried dragging it into trash but then I can't open iTunes from the dock without dragging desktop icon out of trash to and back to the desktop. Tried dragging desktop icon onto dock and into already existing iTunes icon already on the dock. Nothing i've tried seems to work. How to I get rid of this desktop icon?

    Hi bkbl?
    Welcome to Apple Discussions
    First check in Applications to see if there is an iTunes icon there?
    If so then just drag the one on your Desktop to the dock, make sure it works and then drag the old one off.

  • How can I get rid of duplicated tracks from my iPhone?

    Hello! I recently acquired an iPhone and have been adding albums to it from my iTunes library. I then started adding artwork to my albums on my iTunes library to make it look more interesting upon playback. However, this has somehow resulted in many tracks being duplicated on my iPhone - even though no duplicated tracks can be seen in my iTunes library for me to unclick and try to resolve manually. My playlists in iTunes appear tidy, and have been re-synching these along with the newly acquired artwork to my iPhone. But everytime I do this it just adds more and more duplicated tracks to my iPhone. I am becoming frustrated. Is there any way I can get rid of these duplicated tracks from my iPhone without deleting my iTunes library?

    remove them from your playlists in iTunes and then sync.
