How do I get rid of someone else's apps on my account?
A few months ago I synched my new iPhone with my computer at work. It seems that, unknown to me at the time, someone had used the itunes on my computer to update their iPad. Suddenly, I had one million apps on my phone that I had never downloaded. It took me a bit to fgure out what happened and I thought I had fixed it. I know have a new computer (MacBook Pro) at my new job. I set up itunes on this computer with my account and all of the apps that are associated with the other person's account are still associated with my account somehow. How the **** do I get rid of these??? I want to synch my iPhone, but I'm terrfied that I'll have these 6GB of apps on my phone if I do. Please help!!! Thank you.
Have you tried deleting them in iTunes on the computer and then turning off sync of apps in iTunes? That should clean the phone, then do a resync with just the apps you want selected in iTunes.

How can I get rid of the "Reset Search" app?
I have a Macbook Pro and I run Mavericks OS X 10.9.5. There's an application in Launchpad called "Reset Search".See picture 1. I know this is part of the "Install Mac" adware, but I still can't find a way to get rid of it. I downloaded Adware Medic to try and remove the adware but it said that it couldn't find anything. I also tried a manual removal following the steps from http://www.thesafemac.com/arg-genieo/, where it says to remove the file "/private/etc/launchd.conf" but I can't find that file anywhere. I'm scared to continue because it says, "Failure to properly remove this file, if it is present, will result in your computer freezing and becoming unable to start up!" Also way before I knew this was adware I reset the browser settings a few times using the pop up. See Picture 2.
Problem description:
Accidentally downloaded the adware “Install Mac” and can’t get rid of it because I can’t find any traces of it, except for the “Reset Search” app on Launchpad.

The rows of repeat banners take up the whole screen and force me to scroll down to read the info I really want - my Google search results.
Plugins usually are installed externally to Firefox. However, you can disable them in Firefox so that Firefox does not use them.
SearchReset is supposed to automate the task of resetting certain preferences, but you still can edit them manually if necessary.
'''''Address Bar Search'''''
(1) In a new tab, type or paste '''about:config''' in the address bar and press Enter. Click the button promising to be careful.
(2) In the filter box, type or paste '''keyword''' and pause while the list is filtered
(3) Right-click '''keyword.URL''' and choose Reset. This should restore Google as the default for address bar search.
Does that work?
'''''Search Box'''''
Usually it works to choose your preferred search engine from the drop-down. To remove an unwanted search engine plugin, usually the Manage Search Engines... choice at the bottom of the drop-down takes care of it.
Do either of those work?
There might be another way to hijack that search box; I think some of the other frequent responders probably are more familiar with it than I am. -
How do I get rid of the three SEO apps that are now on my computer?
I'm not into internet marketing-building websites etc., at this time. I would like to remove the SEO apps that are on my desktop etc. I believe there are three of them, and I don't need them.
To: the-edmeister,
Thanks for your efforts. Close, but no cigar (lol). I'm very familiar with deleting programs from the Programs directory. However, this app wasn't to be found there. Seems it's a tool bar that you get free from SEOBOOK.COM. There's three parts to it: RankChecker, SEOQuake, and SEOBook. I'm going to contact SEOBook to see if I can solve the problem. I got the initial offer from Mozilla, if I'm not mistaken. Otherwise I wouldn't have looked at it. It's a great resource if you're into building sites and marketing on the net. Thanks, again, for your reply. -
How do I get rid of the apple watch app that appeared on my phone when I updated my software?
The apple watch app is now on my phone and I'd like to remove it. I don't intend to get an apple watch and don't want the app
You cannot remove this app. It is a core app like the Clock, Health, Weather, etc.
You can move it to the last Home screen or put it in a folder so you don't have to deal with it.
Cheers,

How can I get rid of my iTunes iOS app library?
Hi everybody,
I have a MacBook Pro 2012 (non-retina display).
In order to give it a speed boost, I added replaced the main hard drive with an SSD.
The SSD only has a paltry 256GB due to price constraints.
Now, I find myself with a whopping 90GB 'Others' file on my Mac.
I've done a little probing, and found that I have an 40GB iOS apps library stowed away in my ITunes Library.
I deleted the iOS app library and found that my 'Others' dropped back to 50GB.
I then found out that when I sync my 64GB iPhone, all it's apps get transferred over to my Mac.
Is there a way to prevent that data from being transferred over?
Thanks.You need to spend it I think. If you buy a app or song with it the rest of the payable amount will be taken from your bank account.

Tried to install eBay app two days ago. Still hasn't installed, is grayed out and says waiting... When I tried to uninstall it shakes, but no X appears. How do I get rid of this app? eBay app was from the App Store.
Try restarting your devise by holding down the power button and the home button. The uninstalled app should disappear after a little while.
Hope this helped -
How do i get rid of CSS on one page only?
I have a website that is being hosted for me. I want to take
a web page and make an ebay auction template out of it. I can't get
rid of the CSS and it's driving me crazy. Everytime I want to
change the text, it reverts back and posts the CSS code in the
page. I don't want that.
The site uses CSS, and I have not done a website in years and
CSS is still a little french to me & kind of a pain in the ***
since I have not much idea of how it works.
How do I get rid of the CSS for a page within a website that
uses CSS, or am I SOL? Does eBay allow CSS?
Help!Last try and then I give up :-)
> .style1 {font-family: Verdana, Arial, Helvetica,
sans-serif}
That's css in the head of the document right?
When you say: <p>I type text here & change the
format</p>
Do you change it via the property inspector and you end up
with the css
snippet above in the document? How do you change the format,
what format do
you use?
From the portion of the code you've sent I can't see anything
apart from the
style for the font, so that itself won't give you 'red text'.
I can only
assume then, that there is something happening when you
upload the page to
the ebay server or whatever.
Sorry I can't help any further, but I'm stumped without any
further links or
the code for the whole page.

How do I get rid of a toolbar that I do not want?
My wife has somehow done something to create a toolbar that shows the following p shopathome.com, black friday, cyber monday, online coupons, ebay, alerts, grocery coupons, restaurant coupons and wish list. How do we get rid of this?????
hello ewinsberg, please go to firefox > addons > extensions & remove any suspicious entries (toolbars, things that you have not installed intentionally, don't know what purpose they serve etc). also go to the windows control panel / programs and remove all toolbars or potentially unwanted software from there and do a full scan of your system with the security software that you have in place and/or a different tool like the [http://www.malwarebytes.org/products/malwarebytes_free free version of malwarebytes].
