Help with uninstalling software

Help! I cannot get Apple Mobile Device Support to uninstall from my PC - Windows XP. I just keep getting an error message. All other Apple software has successfully uninstalled. I therefore cannot reinstall iTunes because of this problem!

Hi gillian100,
If you are having issues with iTunes after an attempted update (including issues uninstalling), you may find the following article helpful:

I think I need help with driver (software) settings for D110a

I think I need help with driver (software) settings for D110a all-in-one
Product: D110a all-in-one
OS: Windows XP Professional
Error messages: None
Changes before problem appeared: None--new installation
The quality of photo images (mostly JPG files) in printouts is awful even though the files display beautifully on the PC screen. I am using
IrfanView software for displaying/printing. As far as I can tell, IrfanView is not the problem.
When I print the same images on a Deskjet 5150 attached to a different PC also running XP Pro and IrfanView, the quality of the printouts is at
least acceptable, Some would probably say good or very good.
It's dificult to explain in words the problem with the printouts. A picture of really pretty vegetables (squashes, tomatoes, watermelon, etc) comes
out much too red. Moreover, the red, which appears shaded on the screen, seems to be all one shade in the D110a printouts.
Something similar happens to a view of a huge tree in full leaf. On screen, there are subtle variations in the "greenness" of the leaves. In the
printout, all green is the same shade. In the same printout, the trunk of the tree is all a single shade of grey. It isn;t even obvious that the
trunk is a round, solid object.
I liken the effect to audio that disappears entirely when you lower the volume and gets clipped into square waves in even moderately loud passages.
I don't know whether the D110a driver software permits adjusting the parameters that appear to be set incorrectly, and if adjustments are possible,
how I would identify which parameters to adjust, how I would access them, or how I would adjust them. I'm hoping that someone can help. Thanks.
I forgot to mention that I have used the diagnostic application and it tells me that there are no problems.

Hi everyone,
I noticed the following message when network starts on my gateway
Warning: This functionality is deprecated.
Please refer to /etc/rc.conf on how to define a single wired
connection, or use a utility such as netcfg.
Then I realized the way network settings should be written in rc.conf has changed. But I can't figure out how this should be done.
Currently, my set up is the following (old way):
INTERFACES=(eth0 eth1)
eth0="dhcp"
eth1="eth1 192.168.0.10 netmask 255.255.255.0 broadcast 192.168.0.255"
ROUTES=(!gateway)
eth0 is on DHCP because the IP is dynamically assigned my ISP.
eth1 has a fix IP because it's on the LAN side.
No problem to use DHCP on eth0 with the new settings.
But for eth1, I don't know what I am supposed to write for gateway.
Wiki isn't clear on that one either, and it looks like many articles still refer to the old way.
Any guidance appreciated, thanks.
brazzmonkey,
you can't define 2 interfaces the old way (even though I saw some tricky workaround somewhere in the forums).
Use, f.e., netcfg:
Comment your old lines.
In /etc/rc.conf insert:
NETWORKS=(Eth0-dhcp Eth1-static)
DAEMONS=(..... !network @net-profiles ....)
In /etc/network.d create 2 files:
First one is named Eth0-dhcp.
Contents:
CONNECTION="ethernet"
DESCRIPTION="Whatever text"
INTERFACE=eth0
HOSTNAME="your hostname"
IP="dhcp"
DHCP_TIMEOUT=15
Second one is named Eth1-static.
Contents:
CONNECTION='ethernet'
DESCRIPTION='whatver'
INTERFACE='eth1'
HOSTNAME='hname'
IP='static'
ADDR='192.168.0.10'
GATEWAY='192.168.0.1' # your gateway IP
DNS=('192.168.0.1') # your DNS server
The names Eth0-dhcp and Eth1-static are not magic. They just must be the same in rc.conf and in /etc/network.d.
Hope it helps.

PS: netcfg must be installed.

Help with uninstalling avast! completely

I recently installed avast! free antivirus and it kept giving me a warning that some file (bootloader or something like that) had a warning because of it's "decompression rate". After some research, found out it was harmless and recommended that I uninstall avast! for an alternative. So I uninstall avast with the uninstaller it came with, however, now when I check my console log, every 10 seconds it shows a log for "com.avast.helper" that says "Error connecting to master socket: connect ( ) : No such file in directory". How can I permanently stop this, and possibly remove any remaining fragments left from avast!? I tried going into my library, but the application folder for avast! was no longer there.

It should have come with an uninstaller for you to use. Restart the computer after you uninstall.
Uninstalling Software: The Basics
Most OS X applications are completely self-contained "packages" that can be uninstalled by simply dragging the application to the Trash. Applications may create preference files that are stored in the /Home/Library/Preferences/ folder. Although they do nothing once you delete the associated application, they do take up some disk space. If you want you can look for them in the above location and delete them, too.
Some applications may install an uninstaller program that can be used to remove the application. In some cases the uninstaller may be part of the application's installer, and is invoked by clicking on a Customize button that will appear during the install process.
Some applications may install components in the /Home/Library/Applications Support/ folder. You can also check there to see if the application has created a folder. You can also delete the folder that's in the Applications Support folder. Again, they don't do anything but take up disk space once the application is trashed.
Some applications may install a startupitem or a Log In item. Startupitems are usually installed in the /Library/StartupItems/ folder and less often in the /Home/Library/StartupItems/ folder. Log In Items are set in the Accounts preferences. Open System Preferences, click on the Accounts icon, then click on the LogIn Items tab. Locate the item in the list for the application you want to remove and click on the "-" button to delete it from the list.
Some software use startup daemons or agents that are a new feature of the OS. Look for them in /Library/LaunchAgents/ and /Library/LaunchDaemons/ or in /Home/Library/LaunchAgents/.
If an application installs any other files the best way to track them down is to do a Finder search using the application name or the developer name as the search term. Unfortunately Spotlight will not look in certain folders by default. You can modify Spotlight's behavior or use a third-party search utility, EasyFind, instead.
Some applications install a receipt in the /Library/Receipts/ folder. Usually with the same name as the program or the developer. The item generally has a ".pkg" extension. Be sure you also delete this item as some programs use it to determine if it's already installed.
There are many utilities that can uninstall applications. Here is a selection:
    1. AppZapper
    2. AppDelete
    3. Automaton
    4. Hazel
    5. AppCleaner
    6. CleanApp
    7. iTrash
    8. Amnesia
    9. Uninstaller
10. Spring Cleaning

I need help with a software update problem??

I recently got a new macbook pro and I was doing a software update last night as it was required but then when it started to do the update the computer installed the software and then a barring noise came from the mac and it tried to restart 4 times before it eventually came back on. The software trying to install was Fireware 800 I think. Can anyone help with this?

Try MacBook notebook forum to talk to other users, or OS Software (Lion or Snow Leopard)
Does not sound like an Apple OS update though.

Need help with "Nokia Software Updater"...Plz

hi
plz help me
every time i try to install
and it gave me this MSG
" Error 2738.Could not access VBScript run time for custom action."
my Lap work with W.vista
and i have N95-8GB
plz i need a help to update my phone

Please do a search on this forum for "6280 software update" and you will have your answer.
Many people have written here about Nokia software updater that tries to flash their 6280 phones with V6.10 (intended for the 6288) and then breaks their phones.
I myself was busy downloading the firmware for a friends 6280 that was just minutes away from being flashed with 6.10 when I came across messages on many sites telling about the issue with the software updater and 6280 phones. I managed to save that 6280 from sure doom.
If you also searched before hand you would not have this trouble.
You need to take the phone to a nokia Service centre to have it flashed now and get it into a working state.

Problem with uninstalling software

I accidentally deleted Adobe AIR application without clicking uninstall.
Now I"m trying to reinstall and it says it's already there.
Please help!
I did all the steps on ADOBE website to manually remove the directories that include AIR to no avail. It stills says,
"Cannot install, ADobe AIR already installed on this computer"
I'm on a iMac (flat panel) with Leopard

Open the /Library/Receipts/ folder and look for any receipts relating to that software; if so, throw them away and try installing it again.

I need help with uninstalling FP so I can install FP or some hemlock

I cannot get flash player to install, uninstall so that I can install, as all the instructions tell us to do. That insane crazy pop up that tells you to install FP, that you can only say no to so that it will go away is making me want to eat a bullet. I cannot take it much longer. I have no idea what to do. And, the crazy thing is that I did do something a couple weeks ago that made it all stop and then somehow it started again. Sux to fix something but not know what you did, so that you break it again. Anywho, I have tried everything from doing a manual install with the downloader, tried downloading an older vs, but I could not find one that was compatible with Vista, which is my operating system (32 bit). I did go to the hyperlink provided on another persons delimna and the site said that I have the most current vs of FP installed. But, it is not showing in my programs list nor is it in my files in my C drive, nor a trace of it in common files. It is not in regedit in local machine/software/adobe. I cannot find it, only the saved programs to uninstall or install it saved to desktop. Wait, I just rechecked my programs and features and it shows flashplayer 10 Actuve X and shockwave player 11.5, both of which are not found anywhere else in my computer. I am so weary of all of this. I just need help. Please, please please, It is horrible because you have to have fp to run certain programs, but it will not run and I do not know if this is a Adobe issue, Windows issue or a Vaio issue.

Hokay, I have Norton 360, it is run regularily, I also ran ESET this week, I use malwarebytes, pest patrol, registry repair. I took adaware and mcafee off my system as I was told that too many virus softwares conflict and can cause problems. I have had my email stolen, along with the book, it appears someone stripped my email and sold it to a spammer. It is not coming from my computer. Makes me very upset. I have turned this into the FBI cyber crimes site, AOL and Yahoo, since the link emails in the details are yahoo accounts. I get the spam emails as well. Ppl who click on the hyperlinks, some of them are getting viruses, but as I said, these are not being generated by me, but rather from the web. I hate these ppl. My system appears clean.
The pop ups are what everyone who is complaining about this issue are getting, I am assuming. I am seeing this complaint all over. Here is the information about the pop up:
It pops up with any navigation you try to do in IE....any. It will pop up ten times in a row during simple functions. Makes you insane. And the only way you can answer it is to click don't allow. End of story. over and over and over. If you research, web wide you are told to uninstall FP and then reinstall, and there are hyper links provided to do it with, and then you are told to try doing it manually with the Adobe downloader. NOTHING works. I am truly so upset, I cannot use my laptop, a storm surge ate my desktop and I am waiting on insurance to replace that the the iPad is limited. I have no idea which or what is the prob, IE, Adobe or Vaio, which is my make of computer. But, this is so ridiculous.

Help with uninstalling "old" Adobe Reader

Since I trust anything Adobe 100%, I did not hesitate to follow a link (contained in "Adobe for Andoid" email from you to me) to install Adobe Reader on my new NOOK HD+ 32. IT IS A "BAD" LINK, details were forwarded to Adobe by Chrome Support 7-2-13. What I have been told from Barnes and Noble, Chrome, Google and Adobe "HELP" Professionals is to uninstall the download.
You'd think even a 56 year old tech-novice could handle this, right?!? I Can't because the "Unfortunately System UI message freezes everything up until I respond "okay".... Between my "okay" and typing the "uninstall " address to my Search bar, the "UI' message has taken over my screen and has frozen every click I know how to make. After doing this 5+times, all of the icons begin to shake and then the page completely turns itself off.
I am hoping someone is able to advise me how to "uninstall" from somehere other than my Nook.
Thank you very much,
Mizrallen623

It's really hard to say what's going on without knowing more about the system. It's possible that the program is generating an FDF (Forms Data Format) file and launches it, causing the PDF to load and populate with the data in the FDF. Folks have reported that recent changes to Reader have broken this type of thing. So you may need to go back to an even earlier version, such as 9.2 or 9.3, or somehow contact the developers of the application for help.
Is this something that happens in a web browser?

Help with Intervideo software

Okay, I'm using TV @nywhere Master, but I can't get Intervideo MSIPVS or WinDVR 3 to start. I get the splash sceen, then a could not read memory error. I got ChrisTV to work after some difficulty, but seeing as it lacks timeshifting I would like to get the Intervideo programs working, any suggestions? (I don't have Nero by the way, I saw that error in another topic).

the easiest thing to do is to create a signature with your system spec - look through this forum and you'll see most people do this
its like asking your doctor to examine you over the telephone
have you tried uninstalling the MSIPVS software, restarting your PC and trying again?
do you have problems using any other programs? you could have bad memory.
i have seen this error message before, usually when running a program directly from a cd (eg copying 3dMark2001 folder to a CD, and running it on another computer works, but if i take out the CD before the program has finished closing will give this message)

Need help with apple software update error

some time ago i must have installed some update that maybe wasnt apple approved, or i dont know exactly waht happened, but i did a virus scan i had a bunch, got rid of them, and am now trying to reinstall itunes(i uninstalled because it was acting funny probably because of the viruses) and i cant because it has an apple software update that is preventing the new install from occuring when i go to add/remove it telle me that "the feature you are trying to use is on a network resource that is unavailable", ive tried to find the file applesoftwareupdate.msi, but nothing. so what can i do, i just got an ipod touch and i cant f ing use it, please please HELP!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I'd recommend trying to uninstall everything - http://docs.info.apple.com/article.html?artnum=93976 .
If that doesn't resolve it, I'd recommend going through it, or try installing through another user if you're able to.

Need help with DM software install - installer thinks I have previous installation, but I don't

This is really frustrating me, but I recently uninstalled v4.3 and have been struggling to re-install ANY version of the DM onto my XP Pro machine. I have followed every bit of advice I can find including clean un-install / install, change the TEMP environment variable, unzip the installer and store locally, but I still can't figure this out.
I've been studying the installer log file, and I think this might be a clue:
