CC 2014 Updates on Mac- Remove Old CC Apps?

When I installed the CC 2014 Updates on my Mac, my old CC apps remained in place. How do I delete the older versions—simply drag their folders to the trash? Or is there another procedure for deleting them? After once going through hell with Adobe over licensing after I deleted a beta in the wrong fashion, I don't want to make any mistakes.
Thanks!

Yes, I would certainly want to know as well how to get rid of the CC version and why do we need to have both versions taking all that GB space anyway!
Thanks,

IWork updates did not Remove old Ver.

The new Pages-Numbers-Keynote updates did not remove older versions. Delete them myself I guess?

Gregory:
WAIT! Before you delete the old versions (which should be in a folder named: "iWork '09", I would strongly recommend that you KEEP the old versions around for a while.
Apple has stripped out a lot of functionality from the new iWorks apps, basically dumbing them down to be more compatible with the more limited iDevice versions. I would keep the old versions around indefinitely because you may find that they have some functionality that you want that the new iWork apps don't have.

Lightroom CC 5 doesn't launch after 2014 update.

Lightroom CC 5 doesn't launch after 2014 update. Mac OSX 10.8.5. Tried the suggestion to log out of Adobe Cloud and log back in. Also rebooted computer. No luck. Photoshop CC 2014 seems to have installed perfectly. Can't install previous version either, can't even find it via Adobe Cloud. Tried re-downloading from Adobe web site but it sits there saying "downloading now" -- but nothing is downloading!

Charr please see Not able to launch Lightroom after updating it to 5.5 from Creative Cloud for possible solutions to allow Lightroom to open.

How to Remove old updates from Software Update service

Running a 10.10.2 OS X Server and have a lot of old Update files I need to get rid of. I have followed instructions on...
Mac OS X Server 10.4 or later: Removing old updates from Software Update Server
...but getting this error...
No such file or directory
...when typing...
grep swupd /etc/swupd/com.apple.server.swupdate.plist > ~/Desktop/update_list.txt
Any help would be appreciated, thanks.

I don't use Apple's own SUS software I use Reposado instead, however it is my understanding that the locations of files used by Apple's SUS software have been moved with Yosemite/Server 4.x.
Try looking in the following locations
/Library/Server/Software Update/Config/
/Library/Server/Software Update/Data/
/private/var/db/swupd/

CC 2014 Update Makes My Mid-2012 Mac Pro Worthless

Hi All,
I've been a big fan of working in Premiere Pro for about a year. Sure there have been hangups and frustrating technical issues, but nothing you wouldn't experience using Final Cut or Avid. However, the latest big 2014 update has rendered my workstation completely useless. I'm not even sure how to describe all the the things that are happening. Crappy, digitally broken renders, unusable exports, barely existent playback, and crashing. My god, the crashing. Some projects won't even function for 5 minutes before wrecking the system, or even downright shutting down the computer. As in, the computer is running, and then literally 10 seconds later, the computer shuts down entirely on it's own without me touching anything. It's always nice enough to flash a jagged, pixelated render malfunction of some sort right before this happens. I've never experienced such horrifying software problems. And while I have by no means given complete or cohesive scientific descriptions here, I'm just curious if anybody else's life has gone to hell since this update? What and I doing wrong? My computer is only 2 years old! There's no way it can be obsolete already! Below are my specs. Any and all advice/consolation is appreciated.
Mac Pro (Mid 2012)
Processor: 2 x 2.4 GHz 6-Core Intel Xeon
Memory: 24 GB 1333 Mhz DDR3 ECC
Graphics: AMD Radeon HD 7950 3072 MB
Software: OS X 10.9.4

Glad to know I'm not alone, Yonkondy. One thing I just tried that seems to be helping performance a lot is to hold down the Shift+Option keys while the project is loading up. This clears the preferences. It won't look like anything happens initially (there's no dialogue box or anything to tell you that the preferences have been cleared), but I was finally able to save my project without it crashing! Baby steps I guess, haha.

Hi - I am looking for the Adobe Illustrator 2014 1.2 (or .0.2) bugfix update for Mac - and it is not visible in the Adobe Creative Cloud Packager (Mac version). The only update visible is Illustrator CC 2014.1 - which is what introduced the bugs.

The only thing that I can think of that might be causing the issues that I have a Mac Mini on Mavericks.

Hi
I have discovered that my question above is a non-question. A user triggered by looking at the below article about Illustrator 2014 cc 17.0.2
http://helpx.adobe.com/illustrator/release-note/illustrator-17-0-2-release-notes.html
He had recently upgraded from wht we now know is 18.0 to 18.1 which is the latest version. He read the above artic
le and supposed that it was a bug fix release for his version - because the v17 ov18 number is not often displayed. It is usually just 2014 CC.
I have asked him to post a bug report about Adobe Illustrator CC 2014.1

I have an old app in my updates but no longer have the app on iTunes and iPhone 4s. How can i remove it?

I have an old app in my updates but no longer have the app on iTunes and iPhone 4s. How can i remove it? It is beyond annoying, as it constantly has the badge noticfication but can't update the app as it is no longer avaliable. Help!!!

Unfortunately the app isn't avaliable in the Australian store only avaliable to download in the UK store, very confussing as it is definitely not in my iTunes or on my iPhone. I don't understand how or why it managed to get to updates. I just want to delete it or at least get rid of the notification badge for it.

If you have any apps that were acquired with the old ID they will always be tied to that ID. Delete them and reacquire them with the new ID that you have in Settings > iTunes and App Store

Can't remove old episodes from iPod sine Update!

I have a Shuffle & usually carry 3-5 episodes each of 8-10 different podcasts. Sine installing the new iTunes for Windows, I can't remove old eps from the device, & it's a total crapshoot as to which NEW episodes the system will allow me to click on!!
HELP!!!!!!

There are several ways to add podcast episodes to the shuffle, so please correct my assumptions in a reply. How you add podcasts determines how you remove them. I can't tell how you do it from the info you provide.
It sound like you may add podcast episodes manually (drag and drop to iPod). If you do, and your shuffle is 3rd or 4th (current) gen, you should consider doing it using automatic syncing, by putting podcast episodes on a playlist (in your iTunes library and syncing it to the shuffle). Update the playlist at any time, by adding new podcast episodes and removing old ones (the shuffle does not need to be connected). Put the podcast episodes in desired order. iTunes automatically updates the shuffle the next time it is connected (or by clicking Sync if already connected). On the shuffle, you can listen to podcasts from that playlist, and hear episodes from different podcasts consecutively, in the desired order.
When you remove podcast episodes manually, is this the way you do it? Again, this is for 3rd or 4th gen shuffle. Select the shuffle in iTunes, so that you see its "management" screen. In the sidebar, under On My Device, click Podcasts. To the right, the podcast episodes currently on the shuffle are shown. Select the one(s) you want to remove an press Delete on the keyboard.

We don't overwrite your apps so you can keep previous workflows.
Delete apps you don't want when you are ready.

I'm on Vacation with no access to my Mac. But had tried Sync. My software update is iOS 6.0.1. I've tried another WiFi network. I read your comment of deleting Apps for stuck update. So removed all Apps! Can't even install Free Apps. Now using my Kindle

I do backup with iCloud. I can't wait until the new iMac is available so that I can once again have my files in more than 1 location without needing to rely solely on the cloud.
I also rely on iTunes and my MacBook and Time Machine as well as backing up to iCloud. I know many users know have gone totally PC free, but I chose to use iCloud merely as my third backup.
I assume that the restore would result in my ability to open Pages and Numbers and fix the problem with deleting apps, but this would also mean that if my Numbers documents still exist solely within the app and are just not on iCloud for some reason that they would be gone forever. Is that right?
In a word, yes. In a little more detail.... When you restore from an iCloud backup, you must erase the device and start all over again. There is no other way to access the backup in iCloud without erasing the device. Consequently, you are starting all over again. Therefore, it would also be my assumption that Pages and Numbers will work again and that the deleting apps issues would be fixed as well.
If the documents are not in the backup, and you do not have a backup elsewhere, the documents could be gone forever.

Unpair the old one, then pair the new one. This is done in Blue Tooth preferences.

Software update is stuck at "Removing old files"

Last night Software update informed me there were a few things to update. (I believe Safari was in there as well as a couple of things I was not using)
No reboot was required, so I started the install.
My system started really slowing down and was painful after a while. I shecked and Software Update was "Installing 3 items" and "Removing old files" - this was about an hour after starting the update.
Well, that was about 16 hours ago and it is still in the same state and with the same message and the same spot on the status line.
I am reluctant yo force quite Software update as I do not want to cause instability.
Any ideas?
(Or is it OK to force quit when it is just at the "Removing old files" stage?)
This is on a MacBook Pro

You have no choice but to force a reboot and see what happens.
