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 down loaded iBank on a trial basis and have decided not to use it. How do I delete the program from my Mac

I down loaded iBank to my computer but have decided not to use it. How do I delete it from my Mac

If the application came with an uninstaller, use it. You can also check the developers site for instructions.
But for the most part, just drag the application to the trash. Some applications come with uninstallers under "options" on the installer.
The reason for this is that in Mac OS X most associated files are kept in the application package itself. If you choose any app then "control-click" on it, you can choose "Show package contents" from the contextual menu and you will see all the associated items.
You can also do a Finder or Spotlight search for any other items but they will probably only be prefs which will do no harm and don't take up much room.
These are ususally just plist files in Users/yourname/Library/Preferences . Also some apps will install files in Users/yourname/Library/Application Support. (To reveal this hidden Library go to your Finder "Go" menu hold the option key to choose "Library"
Note: Some apps may also put a file in /Library/Startup Items or SystemPreferences >> Users & Groups >> Login items. (So, it worth a look here too)

How do I delete a program from my Mac

I downloaded and used Lightroom 3 trial version and now want to erase the program from my MAC.

Here's some general reading on the subject:
The X Lab: Uninstalling applications
For many of its producs Adobe provides uninstallers. Didn't Lightroom have one? Maybe it's a preference pane. Maybe it's in Applications or Utilities.
t probably installed the Light Room application in /Applications so tossing that will remove the app but these things also usually install other stuff which is why I would think they would provide an uninstaller.
There are generic uninstall utilities (AppCleaner, AppZapper, CleanApp, AppDelete, etc.) which may root out some of the other stuff but probably not all.

How do you delete an application from an iMac?

How do you delete a program from a Mac?

Which program are you asking about. Some apps do not delete via the trash, though as Axeman suggests, it's your first choice.
Incidentally, it is wise never to install an app or program that you haven't got uninstall details for.

How can I delete an app from launchpad, that doesn't have the little cross in the left top corner. The app isn't an App Store app. The application is also not present anymore in my application's folder in finder.

How can I delete an app from launchpad, that doesn't have the little cross in the left top corner. The app isn't an App Store app. The application is also not present anymore in my application's folder in finder.
I tried to use the attached command through TERMINAL :
sqlite3 ~/Library/Application\ Support/Dock/*.db "DELETE from apps WHERE title='Help';" && killall Dock
sqlite3: Error: too many options: "DELETE from apps WHERE title='Help';"
Use -help for a list of options.
But i didn't work as I got the above error message.

I'm in the same boat as you -- except that I manage both a school lab (volunteer job) and macs in the enterprise (pay job). What I think we need is the Education Volume Purchasing Program
http://www.apple.com/education/volume-purchase-program/faq.html
Unfortunately this all seems a little rough around the edges -- for example, I have found updates for AppStore apps on the support.apple.com updates download site, but then when I install them via ARD they don't actually update the software. (The AppStore icons still show as needing the updates, and the version info reports the old version.) The documentation is also vague about which AppleID to use in which circumstance. I think they just haven't finished thinking through the implications of the various procedures and policies upon the various kinds of customers. When we deployed Mountain Lion on the school lab, we made an install usb and went around and installed it on each computer -- and it appears that you are on the honor system as far as paying for all of the licenses that you install. We did! But they appear to have no way to enforce it.
So far, I have only deployed 9 Lion macs in my day job, and our "solution" to the AppStore showing updates problem has been to drag the AppStore icon off of the users' docks so they don't see them!

How do you uninstall a program from mountain lion osx

Hi first time on mac forum
my question is being new to imacs how do you uninstal a program from an imac running osx mountain lion. And of course get rid of the icon for that program from launchpad
thanks

What app do you want to uninstall? If it's an app that is provided by the installation of OS X, e.g. Safari, Reminders, Notes, Mail, etc. - there are many others - they shouldn't be uninstalled.
If it is an app that was downloaded from the Mac App Store, in Launchpad click and hold its icon until it jiggles. Click on the 'x' in the corner to delete it.
If it's an app that was installed using an installer program it is always best to see if an uninstaller is available from the developer of the app (there is often an uninstaller bundled in with the installer package).
Other third party apps that are simply drag-installed into the Applications folder - like Skype, for example - can be just dragged to the Trash and will be deleted when the Trash is emptied.

How do i delete a program off of a mac?

i've had my mac for a while but i was wondering how do i delete a program off of it i've just been taking the folders the program is in and dragging it to the trash? is that the right way.

Hi Rebecca --
Yes, dragging the app to be disposed of to the trash and emptying the trash deletes the app. from your system.
But some apps come with their own uninstaller. When they do, the preferred method of deleting them is to use the uninstaller.
If you're wondering whether you've gotten all the files related to a particular app off of your machine, you can always run a spotlight search and see if anything remains, but in most (almost all cases) these straggler files (should they be there at all) are typically quite small and nothing to worry about.

PS Your stats note that you're presently running OS X 10.4.3. If that's so, you might want to think about updating to the most current version (10.4.5), as Apple recommends it for all users. You can update just by running Software Update (clicking the Apple Menu > Software Update) or you can use the 10.4.5 Combo Updater. In my view (and in many others') the Combo Updater is the way to go.

How do I delete Creative Crowd from my pc?

How do I delete Creative Cloud from my pc?

I think I worded my request wrongly. I've deleted the Creative Clowd Files via Control Panel already. However, I note that the accouint is still being considered by Adobe as active. What I should have requested was how to cancel and close the account, so my credit card wouldn't be charged $19.99 monthly for a program I'm not using, and do not need. How do I accomplish this?

How do I delete C:program files (x86)/common files/apple

How do I delete C:program files (x86)/common files/apple ?
There is a prompt which says that the folder or file is in use in another program.
I am trying to uninstall all Apple progams as suggested by apple support because iTunes won't communicate with my iPod

Hello RooDogg,
Thanks for the question. It sounds like there may be a program or service still running that is utilizing this folder. You can double check by making sure the 6 components are uninstalled from the Control Panel:
Removing and reinstalling iTunes, QuickTime, and other software components for Windows Vista or Windows 7
http://support.apple.com/kb/HT1923
Use the Control Panel to uninstall iTunes and related software components in the following order and then restart your computer:
1. iTunes
2. QuickTime
3. Apple Software Update
4. Apple Mobile Device Support
5. Bonjour
6. Apple Application Support (iTunes 9 or later)
If the above are already uninstalled, restart your computer and then confirm that the C:\Program Files\Common Files\Apple\ can be removed. If it cannot, follow the additional steps at the bottom of the article (referring to iPodService.exe).
Thanks,
Matt M.
