How can I remove the arrows from alias icons?

This is fairly easily done in Windows using TweakUI and 3rd party customization apps, but now that I've migrated to Mac OS I would like to clean up those annoying little arrows.  I could not find anything in the Community listings except one item from 2007.  Anyone have a solution?

Looking for a solution to this too - and yes I know there are reasons not to hide the arrows... but I want to anyway!
Was able to set these off in Snow Leopard but the upgrade to Mountain Lion has reset the arrows.... not confident enough to tinker about in terminal without a word or two from the wise so.... can anyone confirm that the following instructions would work before I take the plunge and possibly screw something up i don't know how to put right?
1. open Terminal
2. type cd /System/Library/CoreServices/CoreTypes.bundle/Contents/Resources/ -> press enter
3. type sudo mv AliasBadgeIcon.icns AliasBadgeIcon-no.icns -> press enter -> enter password
4. type killall Finder
If anyone has the patience I'd appreciate an 'idiots guide' to what each of the operations above does and also how to switch the arrow icons back on in the event i run into problems...
Cheers....

    If you enabled Find my iPhone then you should use that. If not, I'm afraid you're out of luck for finding it. 
    To manage your devices, go to Your Account in iTunes.

    Hello Mudassar,
    In SQL Server / T-SQL we don't have a native JSON support, so you would have to implement a solution on your own = parsing the string and remove the "Key" + it's value.

  • How can i remove the icloud from my iphone when i don't have the password?

    I have a new iPhone where I restored from an old iPhone. The old iPhone had an iCloud account I hadn't used and I don't know the password. How can I remove the old iCloud account from my new iPhone? It keeps asking for the old password I don't have.

    You won't be able to delted the existing account without the password.  If you don't know it, you'll have to reset it as explained here: http://support.apple.com/kb/PH2617.  If you have trouble doing this, you can try contacting the Apple account security team for your country for assistance: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5699.  You will have to prove your identity before they will reset the password.

  • How can I remove the underline from added text for tracing edits

    We have a lot of content that includes underscores and when we use the track text edit feature added text is green and underlined. How can I change the properties of the added text to not be underlined?

    Starting with FM11, you could specify a custom colour to be used for track changes, but the styles (underline, strikethrough) are still hardwired.
    Even if you try to make the changes to the rack text edit conditions in a MIF file, they will get overwritten as the MIF is interpreted when opened by FM.

  • How can I remove the image from an OCR/Image PDF?

    I have some scanned PDFs which have perfect rendering via OCR.  Every word is in the proper place. To make the file size smaller and the text clearer, I would like to remove or detach the image overlay.  How can this be done?  The files are over 90% images in size.
    This is with Acrobat Pro 9 on OS X Snow Leopard, but I assume the technique is independent.
    Thanks for your help.

  • How can I remove the SSD from a broken iPhone 2G?

    I have many years soldering experience and with small electronics. Is there any way to remove the solid state in the EP of an iPhone 2G and read the data off of it. My theory is that if a flash drive can do it so seamlessly in small space; MAYBE I can frankenstein something together to retrieve some music and pictures from said broken device.
    Thanks!
    m.

    The flash memory in the iPhone is a chip soldered onto the logic board; it's not a separate module. So barring a lot of work to get the chip unsoldered and then the building of your own circuitry, the storage cannot be removed and accessed separately. You can try one of the recovery services such as DriveSavers and see if they would have any way to get data from your iPhone.
