How do I get rid of trial version?

I used a trial version of iWork on my OSX Lion for 30 days, then decided to just purchase Pages and Numbers from the Ap Store. Now I can't get rid of the dialog box that says I can't save or print until I purchase. How do I get rid of this? I can go through my Applications Folder to open the correct application, and I have dragged the correct icons to my dock. But I can't get rid of the old icons, even dragging to trash or dragging off the dock, they reappear. If I mistakenly open Pages or Numbers from these icons I can't print or save. Help?

Yvan Koenig has written an AppleScript that removes the files. You can find it on his box.com account in for_iWork'09 > other_iWork'09 items > uninstall iWork '09.zip.

I don't like Firefox 4.0 and want to go back to the last version.. how do i get rid of this version?

the other version let me access my email on the homepage now i have to go to bookmarks...how do i get rid of this version???!!!

That sounds like the difference between the new Firefox home page '''about:home''' and the previous Google Search page which has '''GMail''' at the top if you used GMail.
You can change your home page so that it points to what you had before, which It would be something like:
* http://www.google.com/firefox?client=firefox-a&rls=org.mozilla:en-US:official
Note on Google pages
* They won't show GMail at the top until you have gone to GMail
Directions to '''reset your home page''':

More on Search and on Keyword Shortcuts
* [http://dmcritchie.mvps.org/firefox/search.htm Search and Substitution Shortcuts especially for Firefox users]
* [http://dmcritchie.mvps.org/firefox/kws.htm Firefox Keyword Shortcuts]
But I don't really understand why you or anyone else would want to use such a page for a home page, it is redundant. You have as many search engines as you want in the search bar, the default search is Google.
You can invoke '''GMail''', any search, any bookmark, any bookmarklet with a [http://dmcritchie.mvps.org/firefox/kws.htm keyword shortcut] .
'''You're not stuck with how the toolbars have been changed''' in Firefox 4.0, '''this is Firefox''', you can '''customize''' it. That is why Firefox became so popular, you can customize it how you want it with Customize Toolbars, Extensions, Themes, Styles.
You can make '''Firefox 4.0.1''' look like '''Firefox 3.6.17''', see numbered items '''1-10''' in the following topic [http://dmcritchie.mvps.org/firefox/firefox-problems.htm#fx4interface Fix Firefox 4.0 toolbar user interface, problems (Make Firefox 4.0 look like 3.6)]

How can I get rid of outdated versions of Flash?

Hi. I'm new to the Adobe forums and I need help with Flash
Player.
On a friend's recommendation, I ran my system through Secunia
Software Inspector. It found that my Adobe Flash Player was
outdated and that I have five outdated versions of Macromedia Flash
on my system in seven different locations.
I have updated my Adobe Flash Player, and that's fine now,
but the installation failed to get rid of the old versions of
Macromedia Flash. The Secunia writeup even hinted this might be a
problem, and suggesting I go to "the vendor" (Adobe) to find out
how to solve the problem. Here's what it said:
"NOTE: When updating Flash Player, older versions are not
always automatically removed from your system. If older versions
were detected that you believe should not be present, then please
contact the vendor regarding how to remove them from your system."
These Macromedia files don't show up in my Control Panel >
Add/Remove facility. They don't even show up if I Search for
Macromedia. I did copy down the names of the files where Secunia
says they are found:
C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\Macromed\Flash\swflash.ocx (version
4.0.7.0)
C:\WINDOWS\SYSTEM32\Macromed\Flash\Flash.ocx (version
7.0.19.0)
C:\i386\swflash.ocx (version 4.0.7.0)
C:\Program Files\Common Files\AOL\Flasha.ocx (version
6.0.80.0)
C:\Program Files\EarthLink Setup\Windows\access\program
files\EarthLink TotalAccess\Flash.ocx ( version 6.0.79.0)
C:\i386\Flash.ocx (version 7.0.19.0)
C:\i386\NPSWF32.dll (version 8.0.24.0)
Can anyone suggest a solution? I am not at all adept at
computers (for all I know, even asking this question gives me
away), so I may need extra-simple language. But apparently, talking
to people who know Adobe is the only way I can find myself a
solution.
Many thanks.

Hi,
You may already know this, but have you checked your folder
options under the tools menu in Windows explorer?, not your browser
Internet explorer. Click folder options, click on the view tab,
click on show hidden files and folders and you can deselect hide
protected system files and folders. Hit apply and Ok. Do another
search, type in some of these file names or their extensions,
Ex.(*.ocx), and the files should come up, oh I almost forgot, down
at the bottom of the search page there are options, choose to
search for hidden files or system files, then do your search again.
Secunia says in order to disable the prior versions to delete
certain files, but it doesn't look like one can remove all the
entries and files from ones registry or hard drive, it looks like
they will always remain on your pc, but the previous flash player
versions should be disabled. When you find and remove these files,
I recommend you go back to the folder options in windows explorer
and select hide protected system files and folders. Just so you
don't accidentally delete these important files, unless you know
what your are doing, if you do, your computer will be messed up
royally. Also, it may be a good idea to also select hide hidden
files and folders. It depends on your knowledge of the pc.
Good Luck! I hope this helped you.

Cannot get rid of trial version on desktop, whereas it works perfectly on laptop.

I have a problem getting rid of the "Your trial has expired." error. On my desktop, I've already ran out the trial version, when I've been on the year-long subscription to CC for about 3 months now. On my laptop, I have no problems with any sort of trial version popping up. I installed CC on my laptop about a month ago, and has been working fine.
I have:
tired uninstalling everything CC related (and reinstalled Photoshop CC about 3 times today)
cleared any cache that I could (including Adobe's clear cache download
logged out and tried it offline
tried to register the product from my laptop
anything I could find on the forums
I checked the hosts file and tried to edit it, but it's a read-only file (I do have admin rights).
What else is there for me to do to get Photoshop CC to work without reminding me about the trial verison on my desktop?
Win7, 8gb, x64, etc.

How can I get rid of multiple versions of the iTunes Folder

I am using Windows 7 and iTunes 12.1.1.4. Multiple iTunes folders have been created on my computer (on both my C: drive and my D: drive under Users and My Documents) and they all have different content. Some albums show up in one instance of the iTunes\iTunes media\music folder and some show up in another. How do I get all the content synched up? Can I simply drag and drop all these iTunes folders into D:\My Documents\My music\iTunes (the D: drive being where I store all my documents and photos) and then delete the rest of the iTunes instances?

Several remedies may apply:
For media files that are correctly linked from your iTunes Library, i.e., they will play without reporting something like this:
you can make sure that everything is contained within your main iTunes folders by selecting File > Library > Organize Library... and when you get this prompt:
check the Consolidate files box and, if not greyed out, the Reorganize files ... box and then click OK. This will move any media files that are in other locations to the folders under the setting in Edit > Preferences > Advanced:
This is the location of your media folder. By default, this will be C:\Users\username\Music\iTunes\iTunes Media, where your iTunes database (the iTunes Library.itl file) is stored in C:\Users\username\Music\iTunes. In general that relationship between the database and the media folders should be preserved - in the example above the complete library is stored on a external drive, with the database in K:\iTunes and the media folder location being K:\iTunes\iTunes Media. Note that this setting doesn't tell iTunes where to find media files (that info is embedded in the database); rather, this setting determines where new media is placed within the media folders.
Checking this causes iTunes to automatically place media in folders, and (re)name media files, based on the metadata associated with the files. For music this means that everything will be in folders following the pattern iTunes Media\Music\artist_name\album_title and files to be named using the disc number (if present), track number and song name.
Checking this makes iTunes copy all new media into the media folders, independent of the method of adding it.
Second case ...
For songs that are listed in your library but you do get the "missing file" error, right-click on one of these songs - there will be a "(!)" symbol next to its name, right-click > Get Info. When you get this prompt:
click No (there's a bug in iTunes 12 such that you actually have to click No twice). Then go to the File tab and look for the Location information - sometimes you have to scroll down or expand the editor window to see it. You'll see something like this:
The "file://localhost/" prefix indicates that iTunes can't locate the file. The rest of the entry is the path to the file that iTunes holds in its database, i.e., where iTunes "thinks" the file is. This may be enough of a clue to determine where it actually is - close the editor, right-click > Get Info again, but when you the "... cannot be located ..." prompt click Yes then navigate to and select the correct media file. In many cases iTunes will then be able to adjust its location info for other songs. Otherwise there are a number of techniques that you can use to track down and repair these broken links - often using scripts running against the iTunes database.
... and the third case:
If you have folders that are labeled as "iTunes" but their content doesn't appear in your library within iTunes itself, add these to the library by any of these methods:
select File > Add Folder to Library... then navigate to and select the folder(s) containing the "missing" albums/songs
drag and drop these folders from Windows Explorer into iTunes
copy these folders into iTunes' Automatically Add to iTunes folder
Once you've been through these steps its probably worth running the Consolidate Library process again to make sure everything's in the right place. Once you've checked that to be the case, you can delete any stray "iTunes" folders that are outside the hierarchy rooted in the folder where your database and your standard iTunes Media files are located.
Two final points:
Moving files and folders around yourself never fixes anything in iTunes - in most cases it'll only make things worse by creating (more) broken links
A couple of turingtest2's valuable user tips also apply here:
Make a split library portable describes the optimal layout for an iTunes library, easing the processes of moving it between computers and maintaining a backup of it, as well as the steps needed to bring a library into that shape
Backup your iTunes for Windows library with SyncToy describes a suitable/recommended method to create and maintain a backup ... when you've gone through the effort to make your library just exactly perfect you don't want to lose it all as the result of a virus, hard disc crash, or other fatal failure!

How do I get rid of Pages 5

I really dislike some of the changes to Pages. Before, I pulled up a report, made my changes, clicked "save as" and checked "make a Windows compatible copy" I typed in the new name and I was finished. Now - I pull up a report, make my changes. Have to click Help. Type in save as. Select save as. Type the new name. Back to file, click to Export to, and then save again. A process that was streamlined to a couple of steps is now VERY ANNOYING! I am going back to the old version.
So - how do I get rid of this version and go back to the previous one? Mac support is pretty much nonexistant.

Pages '09 should still be in your Applications/iWork folder.
You can trash or archive Pages 5.
I suggest also rating/reviewing Pages 5 in the App Store.

How do I get rid of "Your Free Trial Period has ended" Screen when trying to open pdf in the Reader

Hi
How do I get rid of the "Your Free Trial Period has ended" Screen when trying to open a pdf in Adobe Reader?
I had a trial of Dreamweaver but it was too complicated for me.
There was no where to cancell the free trail so I let it run its course and expire. It then deleted the programs which is fine (I didn't want to buy them) but it also deleted my Acrobat Reader.
I have re-installed that but when I try to open a pdf, all I get is the "Your Free Trial Period has ended" screen which only allows you to buy or exit and them exits all together.
Needless to say I am very UNIPRESEED with Adobe for messing up my programs and now they want to charge me $29 dollars to sort out a problem they created.
Can anyone help me to sort out this very anoying problem?
Regards
David

Hi
Thank you for the reply.
No I have not deleted anything, this all happened automatically when the trial period ended.
Other than an old version of Photoshop (version 7, for which I do have a serial number, I don't have any other Adobe software - just the reader which is now not working)
I was trialling Dreamwever but couldn't get started with it so am paying someone else to set up the website using Wordpress.

I downloaded the latest version of iTunes and now ALL of my songs sounf d like skipping records. How do I get rid of this or completely remove the new version that I downloaded???

I booted up my computer and opened up my usual shortcuts. I got a message from iTunes that a new version was available and would I like to download it. I clicked on "yes". It took over 1/2 hour to download and now ALL of my songs sound like a skipping record or like they are tripping over themselves. I uninstalled the ITunes and tried reinstalling my old version. I've tried EVERYTHING I could think of to get my old version back but everytime I go through the download process I get a message saying that - the file "iTunes Library.itl "cannot be read because it was created by a newer version of iTunes. I was finally able to download a version that will open but it has the same "skipping" problem. How do I stop/fix this or COMPLETELY get rid of this version of iTunes and re-download what I had??? I'm REALLY distressed.      Jim

Usually, the exclamation mark tells you that the song was not where the program expected to find it. It may also mean that there was an error with the file itself.
   If you click on the exclamation mark, it may give you a reason. You can also double click the file to make it play. If the file is not found, it will tell you. Just follow the prompts to look for the song again. It will ask you if you want to look for the other missing songs in the same folder. You can do it, but unfortunately, the last few updates have made the program blind to the songs that are there and you sometimes have to do the same process for each song.
   If neither of these help, I would suggest starting from scratch and reinstalling iTunes. I have had to do that before. Do your best to back up the library and such first.
   Sometimes a computer will rename a hard disk (Windows) and all the songs on that disk will be gone to iTunes because it will think it's looking in the right place. It can't recognize that the hard disk or partition has been renamed.
I know that this is a podcast, but the principle is the same. A dialogue box should pop up to tell you just what the problem is.
   I hope this helps!

iOS 7 allows you to have your apps update automatically. Therefore, the list of what has been updated stays so that you can see what was updated, when and what the release notes say. It has been suggested that they list has a limit, much like Recents. Currently, there is no way for the user to delete the entries manually. Just try not to look at them.
