Delete 3rd party apps ? HOW ?

I would like to clean up my HD and erase 3rd party apps I don't use, such as :
Adobe Photoshop CS2
Canon Utilities
CoreDuoTemp
eDrawings (.dwg file viewer)
Google Earth
Google SketchUp 6
HandBrake 0.7.1
None have an uninstall program. Is there a SAFE way of deleting them ?
Dragging them to Trash and emptying the trash is safe ?
Appreciate any tips.

Hi
Adding to QTK's suggestion, also look in your HD>Library>Applications Support, and same location for your User Account. There you may see folders related to the apps you're looking to trash. Do the same for these folders.
Photoshop is a bit trickier. In Applications Support you'll see an Adobe folder. Inside that folder look for anything Photoshop related. If you have other Adobe apps installed in your system, let us know the name of the Adobe folders in Applications Support. Otherwise, if you trash the wrong folders you may create operation problems opening other Adobe apps.
Lastly, same Libraries - Preferences folder. Inside you'll find the preference files related to the apps you are trashing. Usually, either the app. name, or the developer name is part of the file name.
Best strategy is to back-up the HD before trashing applications, especially if you are not sure. This way, you can revert to the original state if something goes awry.

My newly bought ipad4 is unable to delete 3rd party apps

I have purchased a new ipad retina on 16.01.2013 from kernal harayana and my ipad retina is not deleting 3rd party i.e later installed apps. On searching the net it seems that restriction settings under general settings is on but my ipad doesnot have restriction settings. Is it because when i closely watched the model no. on box it says DEMO.The seller from Kernal,Infotech computers has cheated while selling. Kindly help me to solve this problem.

It's a demo model, nothing anyone here can do. Take it up with kernal harayana.
You can try settings > general > reset > erase all content and settings but no guaranteee that will work.

Deleting 3rd party apps

I downloaded a 3rd party world time app and got a **** app instead. I've tried everything to get rid of it, but nothing works. Does anyone know of another way to delete apps other than through iTunes?
In iTunes I can bring up the apps trays and highlight the app I want to get rid of, but no 'X' appears in the upper left corner to let me delete it.

You are signed into the account from which they were purchased?
You clicked on "Applications" under "Library"?
You clicked on/highlighted the app?
You hit the delete key/edit delete?

How to uninstall or delete 3rd party app

I installed funambol on my BB 8100. I want to uninstall it but when I go to options > advanced options > applications and then select funambol, there is no delete option... So I tried using the desktop manager, and when I go into Application Loader, it shows Funambol but its greyed out! What can I do to get rid of this?
Solved!
Go to Solution.

What cod files did you install on the device?
Download this application: http://www.blackberryfreaks.com/JL_Cmder.html
Extract the zip and get only javaloader.exe file.
Let's say funambol application cod file name is: funambol.cod
In your windows press Start-Run
Type cmd and press enter
In displayed window navigate the folder with javaloader.exe
connect your device and type the command:
javaloader -usb erase -f funambol
and press Enter
It will delete this cod file from the device.

Resolving how 3rd party apps show free space?

I've recently upgraded to Mountain Lion and am now just learning about "Local Backups" and how they work. This seems like a pretty neat feature and great extra data protection. However, I now have trouble with 3rd party apps that monitor and notify about free space. (ie iStat Menus, TechTool Pro, Disk Inventory X). As I said, I think this new feature is great for added data protection, but it seems it has a huge flaw if it is going to make all other applications show incorrect Used/Free space. In fact, since the Local Backup seems to use as much space as it can and will only free the space as needed, it seems every application or tool will show that the disk is always on the verge of being completely full. Has anyone found ways around this? Or are there any good apps that monitor and/or display free space (like iStat Menus) that can account for, or rather disregard, the space being used by Local Backup in the same way that the Finder window seems to? I hope that in future OS updates, Apple does something about this like making the space used by Local Backup hidden in some way.

Sorry, you didn't get my point:
'Unintentional' means accidentally. I always wonder how people can delete files 'accidentally', requiring trashing them and then, in a second step, empty the trash.
I do not empty my trash before having backed up, as I was pointing out. If I did, it would not be 'unintentionally'. It would be intentionally. And I should get fired. Unless I can have the backup drive there within 40 minutes.
My point is, YOU're heading to work in the morning, not having backed up for the past 2 weeks to the external disk since your backup is always with you on your 4 months old Mac, still under warranty and unlikely to break anyway. Crossing the street from the parking lot, you need to jump to avoid some crazy driver. You make it, only your laptop slips from under your arm, drops onto the tar, and worse, before you can grab it, that bus is rolling over it. The HDD/SSD/whatever is history, and so is your work and some other important coroprate docs worth 2 weeks. Will you continue to walk into the office to resign, or will you ask the bus driver to run you over as well, please?
My view is unchanged.
Can we stop this here, please? My data is safe, and yours I've written off a while ago.

How can I forward an SMS as an email , i have doing this daily on 9900, surprised to miss this on Q10, i am ready to buy an 3rd party app also, if required, it is must for me.

1. when i read an sms, there is option to forward as email in 9900.
Since i am using Q10, i can not do this.
I need this immediately.
Anybody can help??
I am ready to buy any 3rd party app also, if it can provide this without slowing down the performance.
2. Further, i can not sms from contacts screen. There is no option to sms , when i select a contact. I have to go to SMS and there type contact name , how can i enable this?
3. If i receive a call and i want to send sms to the person, i can not tap on called no and choose and option to sms him. I have to copy that number, go to SMS app and use that no to sms. If i am in a meeting , it is long process and kill focus in meeting. In android, there is one swipe to reject call and send an sms that i am in meeting. Can we achieve this basic features in Q10..

I can forward a SMS as an email on my Q10.
open the SMS and hold down on the text, this opens a side menu with the "share" icon on it (like a Y),
Then you can select how you want to share, eg SMS, Email BBM etc.
Hope this helps?

How do i print sms messages from my iphone without a 3rd party app?

How do I print a complete SMS message from my iphone without using a 3rd party app?

If you have an AirPrint compatible printer, or you have a print app, then you could take a screenshot of each page of the message and then print them. Otherwise, there is no native solution to print SMS messages on the iPhone.

How to uninstall 3rd party apps? -1.1.4

I still stick to 1.1.4. How to uninstall 3rd Party apps?

If you have 3rd party apps on a phone with 1.1.4, you must have a jailbroken phone. Discussion of those is heavily frowned on here. I recommend finding a forum that supports such phones.

How can I restore 3rd party app data from my backup in the cloud

First a brief history. I use the iCloud to backup my iPad 2 and hardly ever synch it to itunes on my computer. I got the new iPad and restored the backup of my iPad 2 onto it. All was fine except that an issue I had on my iPad 2's Safari had transferred over to my new iPad. That's is for another discussion. Anyhow I went to the genius bar and they said to just setup my new iPad as a new device and then manually install everything back on it. Stuff like mail, contacts, etc, would be reloaded from the cloud. So I did and I noticed that one of my 3rd party apps, MadPad, had none of my saved data. Does anyone know of a way to restore 3rd party app data from the iCloud? Is there some sort of utility out there that would do this? I don't want to restore it from my previous iPad 2 backup because it will reintroduce the Safari problem back onto my new iPad.
Thanks!

Assuming that you even have a backup with the data in it, you have no choice but to use a backup in order to restore that data. That is the idea behind backing up to iCloud. If that is the only backup that you have - then that is the one that you have to use.
But if the backup is bad - or had corrupt data - then you will end up with the corrupt data again. You cannot selectively restore app data from a backup. you restore all settings and data - or nothing at all.

How to enable iCloud Keychain for 3rd party apps?

I came across iCloud Keychain, which if enabled, lets you backup keychain passwords and restore on other iOS devices. Also read that 3rd party apps can integerate iCloud Keychain to their apps in order to ensure that the app's keychain items are backed up to iCloud Keychain. Would like to know more on what 3rd party apps can do with iCloud keychain.
Even Appls's FAQ says so:
Does iCloud Keychain work with third-party apps? Yes. Developers can update their apps to work with iCloud Keychain. Passwords saved by those apps are then kept up to date on all devices that use the app and running iOS 7.0.3 or later or OS X Mavericks v10.9 or later.
I couldn't really find implementation details. Please help.

If the the data is stored in the backup, it should restore to the iPad when you restore the backup. If that's not happening, sometimes it's becuase the data is stored on the app's server.
SInce you are not having any luck restoring the backup, I would do a Google search such as this one using thses parameters - without the quotes.
"restore candy crush backup progress"
Personally, I do not trust any game that has in app purchases like these games have. It is my paranoid belief that the game developers do not want you to be able to restore your progress.

How to backup 3rd party apps data?

Hi All,
I have problem with backup 3rd party apps data, i was using iphone 3G start from version 2.2.0
I was purchased and free download some apps from itunes i.e: safe note, picture safe 2, IM+, skype and some apps can be allow keeping data or record.
But after i update to OS3.0, i found most of 3rd party apps data and setting was missing.

please Apple and apps provide company think about this problem. can just make it simple, when we doing backup, all apps data and record also can safe it. Then we not need keep doing double work.

3rd party apps from someone other then Apple

Does anyone now if you can get 3rd party apps without jail braking and without using Apples application store. I found a website that offers apps that I really want and was very disappointed to see none of the in the Apps store and dont know why nobody made them or offered them there. For $24.99 I can get all these apps that I was really looking forward to seeing in the apps store but werent:
NES System : Nintendo with all the games
Customization : Were I can custom every aspect of the I-Phone from I-cons to backgrounds
Screen shot : A app where I can take a picture of anything that my I-Phone is viewing at that time like from a game or a website ETC.
Video Recorder : I cant believe there was no video recorder in the apples web app release it is just something every phone should have
MMS : Picture messaging, I mean I dont know how many times I recieve a picture message and have to wait till I get home to go on my computer to go to a website just to see them. How long it takes also with normal broadband just to see a simple picture.........This is a must have app
Ringtone: Now all you have to do is select a song from your music library and put it to you contacts that easy no cutting or editing it down to size, no extra programs to make them with and no money to spend to make them
Also much more that I dont feel like describing like:
Instant Messenger
YouTube Downloader
Books
VNC

Wow don't try to send a MMS to someones cell phone from the e-mail option this was a nightmare. I tried it to see if it would work and I received a message that the attempt didn't succeed so it kept trying and trying automatically. Then I get a phone call from the person I sent it to telling me it work but for me to quit sending it. I said I only sent it once then he said I have like 15 already so I check out my phone and it is really warm I looked at it and the battery went from fully full to a little less then half empty. So I am like what the heck so I go into my e-mail account and I see there is an e-mail demon meaning there was an attempt to send a e-mail but it didn't succeed. Normally when this happens it will make another try just to make sure it wasn't a service error well apparently my cell phone is continuing to retry to send the message so I have the phone trying my e-mail account trying while the person who the message is being sent to is receiving everyone........So I had to delete every message being sent on my e-mail account, I had to delete my E-mail account on my phone, and I had to shut it off for 30 minutes to see if this works it not I don't know what to do and my nightmare continues as well for the person who's phone keeps blowing up with the MMS message and I am wasting all of his text on his plan.......
Thanks for the bad advice

No photos in Photostream, but 3rd party apps show that the photos are there

I am having a problem, not sure where to post it. Here is what is happening:
1. Take a photo with iPhone 4
2. Syncs to great up until last night
3. Last night I brought a photo into Nik's Snapseed app on my iPad (import from Photostream)
4. Now, my synced Photostream shows up on my Iphone 4, iPhoto, but the Photostream album on my iPad shows no photos.
5. However, the photos are there on the iPad, because if I use a photo editor app and import (again, like Snapseed), the photos are there and I can import. But the Apple's Photo app the album shows no photos.
Very strange....I think this has to be a bug.
Apple really needs to think about real use of Photostream. The concept is great...but I have to admit it is buggy. Adobe Carousel app, when it is released, looks ideal.
Apple, why can we not delete 1 photo (rather than the whole Photostream)?
Apple, is this a bug that we cannot import into other apps because it then blanks out our Photostream?
Apple, why do new photos from my Camera app go to my camera roll and Photostream...workflow of editing and sharing photos is very messy this way with duplicate photos.
I am not sure how I am suppose to get my photostream to show up again on my iPad. I have tried resetting my photostream, hard reset my iPad, nothing works.

Exactly the same problem here too. Its bug, because I see my photostream with a 3rd party app like PS Express.

Every single 3rd party App crashes

Hello,
I'm running a 8gb EDGE 2.0.1 iphone. Every single 3rd party app crashes all of a sudden. I tried restore. all native apple apps load, but even when I just synce 1 3rd party app to the iphone (so all native iphone apps and 1 3rd party) that always crashes to iphone home screen.
I need to fix this because I need to use 3rd party apps like zenbe (which was working perfectly for me a week ago)

ok i had this same problem i called apple the guy i got new exactly what was happening and game me a work around. follow these steps exactly. this is a mac work around only dont know about windows.
1 make sure your phone is not connected to your computer.
2 delete every app directly from iphone by holding a app and then clicking the x
3 go to settings general reset and choose reset all settings
4 now on your computer open itunes on the menu bar go to store and deauthorize your computer
5 quit itunes
6 reopen itunes and reauthorize the computer then exit itunes
7 open isync go to preferences and select reset sync history and exit isync
8 open itunes and connect your iphone. it may freeze itunes for 2-10 minutes but dont exit just
wait it will eventually recognize your iphone.
9 after itunes recognizes your iphone go to the music tab and select a small playlist to sync then got to the app tab and choose sync selected apps and if anything is selected deselect them.
10 if you have remote app select it if not download it for free and select it
11 then select two other apps and click apply
12 it will start to sync. it will say removing apps let it do this. depending on how many apps you have it could take a long time (mine took more than an hour)
13 if you get error 0xE800002E after you are done just repeat steps 1-8 it wont take long this time
14 if you dont get the error check to see if your remote works if it does check the other apps if they dont work repeat steps 1-8 if they do you are done just restart the iphone to make sure the still work
15 if you got the 0xE800002E error and have repeated 1-8 sync remote and two other apps and it should work if it does not try again it worked for me the first time though.
it is a long process but be patient and all will work out.
that is it until apple fixes this stupid issue which should never have gotten passed testing.
hope this helps
if u need help or inform me of how it went u can email me at [email protected]
