How do I delete an iphone from my MacBook Pro devices?

I had backed up my iPhone5 to my MacBook Pro.  My wife wanted to back up hers as well on my MBP, and I added hers as well. 
Just before we upgraded to iPhone6, I synced my iPhone5 (OK).  I could not, however, finish syncing (had to abort) my wife's iPhone5.  I would now like to delete that device from my MacBook Pro to free up more memory.  She is now backing everything up to the Cloud.  I am using my MacBook Pro and a time-aching back-up to an external drive. 
Help, please! 
Thank you! 

Open iTunes and click Preferences on the menu named iTunes, then click Devices in the Preferences window, select the device and click Delete Backup.
You can also delete apps that have been downloaded by going to the iTunes View menu, click Apps, click an App and then use the Delete key.

    How do I delete a user from my macbook pro?

    If you've admin privileges and there are no files in the user account that you want to keep, just go to System Preferences>Users & Groups and unlock it with your admin password. Select the user that you want to delete and click on the minus button. You'll get a warning before you completely delete the user but once it's gone, it's gone.

  • How do I delete photo booth from my macbook pro?

    I'm deleting some unneeded applications from my new Macbook Pro.  I have been successful with most and all of them that are not required as part of the OS system.  However, there are other apps that are more difficult to remove as I was able to go into Utilities and Terminal and type in some other specific applications that I wanted to remove (like Stickies, Chess, etc.).  However, one I am having trouble deleting is Photo Booth.  I also want to disable the webcam so I cannot even activate it by mistake.  Can someone tell me how to do that?
    I was successful in removing all of the icons other than Finder, Safari and Trash from the bottom of my screen now that I have deleted everything else and it is much cleaner.
    Thank you!

    As a general rule, however, removing system software is a bad idea.

  • How can you delete downloaded games from a Macbook Pro to create more available space?

    it says I have 0KB available... how do i get rid of downloaded games to create extra space on my computer?

    Start by dragging the games' applications to the Trash and Empty the Trash. See, also:
    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, Easy Find, instead.  Download Easy Find at VersionTracker or MacUpdate.
    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:
    AppZapper
    Automaton
    Hazel
    CleanApp
    Yank
    SuperPop
    Uninstaller
    Spring Cleaning
    Look for them at VersionTracker or MacUpdate.
    For more information visit The XLab FAQs and read the FAQ on removing software.

    How do I delete a download from my macbook pro OSX Mavericks OSX 10.9.5

    If you haven't installed it, control-click the Downloads icon on the Dock, choose Show in Finder or Open Downloads, select that item, throw it away, and empty the Trash. If it's a dmg, you may need to unmount that first.
    If you've drag-installed an application, remove it as above.
    If you've actually run an installer, find and use an uninstaller.

  • Auto sync is not working. How can I manually transfer music from my macbook pro iTunes to iphone 5?

    Auto sync is not working. How can I manually transfer music from my macbook pro iTunes to iphone 5? My iMatch is turned on and I can direct downlad my music to the iPhone from the Cloud; however, I want to direct import All of my music from iTunes to my iPhone 5 via the connecting USB cable and it is not working. Yes, I have tried restarting both devices, and no autosync is not working nor is is it providing the avaialbile option to select music in iTunes on my Mac to then sync. Please help. Thanks

    Please disregard. I figured it out. Answer for anyone else running into this problem: You have to turn off iTunes Match on both devices. Apparently, if you activate iTunes Match it deactivates your abiltiy to direct sync.

    How can I completely delete an app from my Macbook Pro?

    For programs that do not require an Administrator's password to install on your Mac, drag its program icon to the Trash. For those that require a password, research its developer's website or other support options for specific uninstallation instructions.
    Never use all-purpose "cleaners" or "zappers" or similarly named clever utilities to uninstall anything.

  • I want to know how to delete game apps from my macbook pro also can i trust any macbook cleaners or keepers?

    I want to know how to delete game apps from my macbook pro also can i trust any macbook cleaners or keepers? My mac seems to be running a bit off.

    To delete any type of app you need to open the Finder window and highlight the app you want to delete by moving it to the trash. Empty the trash and it's gone. There are some Apple provided apps that cannot be deleted but you should not have any issue with the games.
    As for cleaners, I personally don't use them but the 911 and Mackeeper are very popular and I hear work pretty well with Macs.
