Compleatly remove programs
So my FCP will not open and I want to compleatly remove it and all of the components from my computer and then try to reinstall. Being a PC guy I thought this would be very easy and it probably is but I cannot figure out how to uninstall FCP HD 4.5. I realize that this is probably really basic but I could use some help. Thanks
This is for FCP 5, but should work for FCP 4.5 as well.
#39 How to uninstall FCP 5
Shane's Stock Answer #39 - How to uninstall FCP 5
Here's the Apple Doc on how to uninstall FCP:
http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=302337
If you want to reinstall it:
6) Insert the FCP 5.0 upgrade disk and re-install.
7) Run the OSX Disk Utility
a. Select the OSX drive
b. Repair the Disk Permissions.
c. Reboot.
8)Run Software update to get back to the current version.

I have installed Adobe Premiere Pro cc on my laptop, but I cant find a way to start the program. No Icon, and it is not showing up in the start meny. It is showing up in add/remove programs, but nt anywhere else.
If you are using a Mac, simply hit Command-Spacebar to bring up Spotlight Search. Begin typing the name of the application and when you see what you are looking for, press enter. You should get a hit by the second or third letter you type. Great way to launch apps on computers that you are not familiar with.
Windows 7 and 8 should have something similar. I think you simply press the Windows key and begin typing. Press enter when you see a match.
Both Mac and Windows search tools can be customized to search for applications, files, emails and so forth. For Windows, look for Taskbar and Start Menu Properties. For Mac, go to Preferences Spotlight. Turn off items you know you won't need to speed up searches.

Add/Remove Programs - export to text file?
Hello,
I am wondering if it is possible to export a list of everything in add/remove programs to a text file for inventory purposes.
I have not found any easy method to do this short of copying reg files or installer 3rd party software. Since the idea is to save time neither of those are viable solutions.
Does anyone have any ideas?

My i tunes will not work at all. I have tried all the steps given to remove my I tunes player but in my control panel, add and remove programs it does not give me an option to remove any of the apple/ I tunes. I tried to go to program files and remove all the files but access is denied. This all started about 1 1/2 years ago and with every i tunes update i got more and more errors or problems until it stopped working. At one time i could remove and reinstall i tunes to try to fix it but now i cannot do anything. I believe one of the last was i could not open i tune because it was being used or was on another network, not 100% sure its been so long and frustrating I quit trying 6 months ago. Hopefully someones got some help !!!
Thanks I appreciate your time; PhilipSee Troubleshooting issues with iTunes for Windows updates.

Hi All,
Our company uses SCCM 2007 and we don't really have an SCCM officer here. I kind of try to get things done by googling a lot but for this i can't find a a solution so i open a thread.
I'm a newbie to SCCM 2007 so I don't know if i'm about to ask a dumb question but here I go.
I'm trying to pull out a report for the count of computers that run a desktop version of our Ticketing Tool.
I found the perfect standard report for this in SCCM 2007 which is: Count of instances of specific software registered with Add or Remove Programs.
in there i have to set two values: 1) the software that i'm willing to count, 2) the collection in which to search.
for value number 2 I have no problems.
my problem is in value number 1. When I click the value button to list all known software, he lists all software in a alphabetic way. problem is that it stops at letter "I"... the software i'm looking for starts with an O so it's not listed.
also if I type the software and then click Values... it replies that it couldn't find the software.
am I doing something wrong?it sound like you are using the filter option with in the old and "crappy" ASP reports. first you should stop using then and only use the SSRS reports. secondly the filter option will only show the first 1000 rows, there is a reg key to
allow it to show more.

I keep getting these stupid ads that are apparently from smartsuggestor but I cant find the program anywhere on my pc then I contacted the company and they tell me that it is a firefox issue yet i cant find it in the firefox settings either. I went into the Smart Suggestor site and the name of the extension/program came up as "No extension Found". I cant find anything that even resembles anything to do with the program at all not in the add remove program through control panel or through the extension plug ins area in firefox and was wondering if anyone else has had the same problem.
I did not download this crap then all of a sudden I am plagued with pop up adds and other sorts of advertising all stemming from this bloody Smart Suggestor. I have got myself a good pc cleaner along with a few Malware removers and also upgraded my security programming but nothing will either find nor rid my pc of this problem. I have downloaded and reinstalled a fresh copy of Firefox and I am still having the same issue, has anyone else gone through this and how can I get rid of this problem?Do a malware check with several malware scanning programs on the Windows computer.<br>

Hi,
I am trying to validate a .Net Framework 4 WinForms application for use in the Microsoft Partner Network portal.
I am using Windows App Certification Kit 3.4 for Windows 8.1 , and the Validate Desktop App option.
To build the package I am using InstallShield 2012 SPR Limited Edition (for Visual Studio), and the validation fails
only with the following error (please also see the attached image):
Clean reversible install test: Failed to Write appropriate Add/Remove Program values
Error Found: The registry population test detected the following error: app didn't create the required registry entries.
A non-optional value 'DisplayName' is missing or invalid (same for 'Publisher', 'ProductVersion')
Please note that I have filled in all the publisher/product details in the InstallShield project, on the General Information page.
Also I have tried to use the Microsoft Visual Studio Installer Project for VS2013, and the validation failed with the exact same error.
(https://visualstudiogallery.msdn.microsoft.com/9abe329c-9bba-44a1-be59-0fbf6151054d)
Any help would be very appreciated.
Thank you.You may need to add the necessary info to the app’s Windows Installer package so it can configure Add/Remove Programs in Control Panel correctly. Setting these properties automatically writes the corresponding values into the registry. From the picture,
you are missing some necessary information about your desktop app.
Also You need the correct admin permissions to write to the registry.

Itunes won't open/cannot re-install/cannot add or remove program
Sweet jesus i need help
one day itunes decided to stop working. now everytime i click on it it says that "The feature you are trying to use is on a network resource that is unavailable." it also asks for me to find an alternate path to itunes.msi file. i get the same message when i try to add/remove itunes. i also cannot re-install itunes.
PLEASE HELP ME!!!!!!
??? Windows XP nonewith that one, let's try the following procedure.
first, head into your Add/Remove programs and uninstall your QuickTime. if it goes, good. if it doesn't, we'll just attend to it when we attend to itunes.
next, download and install the Windows Installer CleanUp utility. use it to clear any existing itunes and/or QuickTime installation configuration information from the PC.
Description of the Windows Installer CleanUp Utility
next, use the the following document as a guide for manual removal of leftover itunes and quicktime program files:

now try another itunes install. does it go through properly this time? -
Acrobat 9.2.0 MSP doesn't display in add/remove programs
I installed the Acrobat 9.2 MSP and it shows successful installation but it doesn't show Acrobat 9.2.0 in add/remove programs. It still shows Acrobat 9.0.0. Any reason why this would do this?
Okay, found the solution--I think. Fire up Acrobat, go to Help/Repair Acrobat Installation. After a LONG bit of disk-bashing, the process ends and Acrobat then shows up in the add/remove programs list.
I may just keep the program around a bit longer now, now that I'm not quite as paranoid about it as I was.

My PC is a fujitsuscaleo 600, last year I had a new hard drive and some extra RAM fitted and since then has been good - have used, and updated Firefox for over 6 years. in August I installed TrendMicro antivirus and for different reasons this has been uninstalled/re-installed twice. AFter letting it expire, I re-installed ParetoLogic PC health advisor (I think in August too)and allowed it to try updating some graphics drivers following a scan - this was unsuccessful so I marked them to ignore (something about my graphics card not supporting the drivers downoladed). I can see the mozilla files on WIndow Explorer but if I click 'remove' (control panel, add/remove programs) I get a very short 'hourglass' then nothing; if I click Firefox icon I get the same. Help!

How to remove Java Applications from "Add and Remove Programs" list?
I have deployed my Java applications (both JWS and Applet) via JNLP with allow-offline option enabled and without installer-desc option specified.
My questions are:
1. An entry is added to the Add and Remove Programs list after launching the application via JNLP. Is it due to the specification of JNLP or JWS? Is there anyway to prevent this behavior?
2. I removed my application by clearing the cache via Java Control Panel but the entry for the application is still listed in Add and Remove Programs. How can I remove the entry in the Add and Remove Programs?
I have tried following methods but neither works:
1.Go to Add and Remove Programs, and click [remove] button to the right of my application.
*Warning message like 'Application cannot be uninstalled completely' is thrown.
2.Follow instructions listed @ [Microsoft Online Support site|http://support.microsoft.com/kb/314481/en-us] to remove my application manually via Windows registry.
*Couldn't find appropriate registry entry to delete.

Custom icon in Windows Add/Remove Programs list
Hi all,
I am developing a software with Labview 2011/2012.
When I am creating an installer for my application I am configuring icon section and I can see my icon in windows All programs section.
And I want to see this icon also in windows Control Panel/Programs and Features section. In the list of installed applications my application is without an icon I have specified.
Anybody faced with this issue? Have any idea how to figure out this?
I have also found some thread about this, but I am wondering if some new experience available since this post.

LV.jpg 73 KBYeah, I can't seem to come up with any other way.
But for the product ID try these steps.
To determine the value of ProductID:
Open the setup.ini file that was created with the installer.
Near the bottom, in the install.msi section, there is a key called ProductId.
The value of ProductId should be substituted in the registry key chain listed above.
