Can you remove programs on the target computers using ARD?

I need to remove an old version of a program on 30 iMacs. Can I do this using ARD?

Since the program is self-contained, I would just send a unix command (send as root) such as
rm -rf /Applications/programname
and it should go away.
I think that syntax is OK, I'm at a library and away from my mac - you can "man rm" to check it out. The guys that really know what they are doing must be on spring break or something!

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.

Can you remove apps from the icloud?

I want to remove some of my apps from the icloud but I don't know if one can even do this.

You can hide them in your purchase history. You can not delete them. The purchase history is a permanent record of what you've purchased.

To have great read/write performance, do you have to save all programs onto the SSD or can you save programs onto the HDD?

if I want to use the fast read/write speeds of my SSD, do I have to save the programs (Final Cut Pro X, Adobe After Effects, Microsoft Powerpoint, Steam, Counter-Strike, etc) onto the SSD? Or can I save all programs onto a 2nd drive which would be a HDD and still have fast speeds WITHOUT storing those programs onto the SSD? My 2012 mid Macbook Pro has a SSD as its main bootup drive and will be getting a 2tb HDD to replace the optical drive.
Any advice or comments is greatly appreciated,
Thank you!

Can you remove items from the toolbar when opening a pdf in a browser?

I know you can turn off the toolbar with open parameters, but we would like to only display the zoom controls on the toolbar. Can I do this with an FDF file or some other way?

Hi,
You mentioned that "JavaScript in the PDF can hide toolbar buttons."
According to the Javascript docs for Acrobat 7 the App.HideToolbarButton function only runs at AppInit. Which means that I would have to have the javascript in a file. How can I do that from within the document? Is there another way to to do set this from our web application?

Can you remove members from the outline using ESSCMD?

The product line dimension in my cube looks something like this:Product Line Product 1 Product 2 Service Parts Part 1 Part 2 etc.I have an automated script which builds the product line dimension, loads a new data set, and does a CALC ALL to roll up Part 1, Part 2, etc., into Service Parts. Once that rollup has occurred, I want to remove Part 1, Part 2, etc., from the outline, but I have not found a way to do that from ESSCMD. Is there a way I can automate the removal of members from a dimension?Any hints or suggestions are greatly appreciated.-jimb

You could create a new dimension build file for your products dimension but only down to the service parts level. then use a load rule with the remove unspecified box checked on the Dimension build setting tab. This shold cause a restructure of the database, hopefully your product dimension is sparse.Good LuckGlenn UrbanDirector of consultingVision BIA, LLC630.873.3165

How can you remove mirroring from the digital images of old photographs?

I have inherited several hundred old photographs and many of them display "silver mirroring" in the black regions which creates a bluish cast on the scanned image. Is there a simple way to reduce this problem during the scanning process or is there a way within Photoshop to repair it? With many such photographs, I shutter to consider the time required to repair them one-by-one in Photoshop.

When scanning, try setting the black threshold up a bit. This might loose some detail in the dark regions, but it will also make the slightly lighter images in the dark regions disappear. It depends on how light the images are and how much dark-region detail you are willing to sacrifice.
Yes the Photoshop forums should also help you.
Good luck,
Jay

Windows 2000 prof. I noticed that I have both versions 3.6 and 6.02 installed when i checked the this in the add/remove program in the control panel. Can i remove the v3.6?

I have windows 2000 professional operating system version 5.0.2195 service pack 4 build 2195. I usually logged on as "user1". When i clicked on firefox it will try to install update but will return a message that update cannot be installed "please make sure that there are no other copies of firefox running on your computer". But there are no other copies of firefox running.
I checked the add/remove program in the control panel and found out that I have ver3.6.10 and ver6.0.2 installed.
Can i remove the ver3.6.10 using the uninstall button in the add/remove program?
Another problem is that I cannot logged in as "administrator".
When i logged in as "administrator" the computer just shut down and restart by itself while loading my desktop icons.

The normal method is simply
* Help -> Check for Updates
on Firefox (Window XP)
* see also [[Updating Firefox]]
You should be able to delete Firefox and remove it, from your Windows XP control panel although that may not be what you intend.
If you have doubts about compatibility stay with Firefox3.6 for now.
Some software extensions will currently have problems with firefox 4 (and that iircc may include some versions of silverlight )
Do NOT use any delete settings (or whatever it is worded) that will loose all your passwords and bookmarks.
BTW the safe mode in relation to Firefox is a totally different concept from Windows safe mode, but you probably have no need to use either of them.
* see also [[Safe Mode]]
On an ordinary upgrade Firefox will preserve your profile details which include bookmarks any passwords.
You should have no problems in installing Firefox 4. You should be able to install firefox 4, and retain any bookmarks etc that were used in firefox 3.6, but sometimes extensions may be incompatible.

How can I uninstall Firefox 8 if Remove Programs and the uninstall helper.exe don't work?

I need to uninstall Firefox, but when I click "Remove" in Add/Remove Programs, nothing happens. I tried it several times. Add/Remove Programs shows Mozilla Firefox 3.0.6, which is strange since I have 8. I also tried running the helper.exe file in the uninstall folder, and nothing happened. I tried doing all of this after a few reboots as well as in Safe Mode, and had the same result. I searched the online forums, but I did not find anyone with exactly this same problem. I made sure Firefox was not running when I tried to uninstall it (double-checking the processes in Task Manager). I just ran Windows Update and everything else is working fine. I have no Antivirus software running. I closed all programs (down to essential Windows processes) before attempting the steps above. This is the first time I have ever attempted to uninstall Firefox.
Thanks!

You may only see leftover entries in Add and Remove programs, but the listed programs may have been replaced by the updated version. This can happen if the updater didn't remove those old entries.

Can you sync thunderbird email between several computers so if you delete an email on one computer in thunderbird it also deletes it out of the other computers.

Can you sync thunderbird email between several computers so if you delete an email on one computer in thunderbird it also deletes it out of the other computers it syncs with? I have three computers I use daily in different location and have thunderbird on each computer. I find it time consuming to have to repeatedly delete the same emails from each location. I am thinking that by leaving the emails on the server and not downloading them in each computer would solve this. Is my assumption here correct? If not? How would you set up Tbird to sync?

If you set up your email account(s) as IMAP instead of POP3, then each computer / smart phone can view the mail, but if any of them delete a message (or move it to another folder on the server), the same action will be seen on the other computers.
