How do I manually uninstall FIM Portal and Service 2010

I installed Forefront Identity Manager 2010 as follows:
Server 1: FIM Sync Service
Servers 2, 3: SharePoint Farm, FIM Portal and Service
I've had issues from the installation. When installing FIM Portal and Service on Server 2 it failed to recognize fim sync service on server 1. We had FIM service unavailable errors in most usage scenarios (even though asmx returned service description).
I was able to use RunAs different user to start browser as the service account used to install and run the FIM service, browse to the identity management site using
http://localhost and saw the fim portal. I was never able to see the portal using DNS address or server name from the server 2 or any other computer on the network, or using any other account (although I checked the option to
enable portal access for authenticated users).
I tried to uninstall - this went through all the steps but failed during apply and did a rollback. However, subsequent attempts to change, repair or uninstall all fail with message that the site was not found, please create it...
I would like to manually remove FIM Service and Portal and begin again. How do I manually remove FIM Service and Portal when uninstall fails?
Thanks,
David Saylor

Are you getting this error message while uninstalling FIM?
FIM Portal and Service is trying to find a site which is not there anymore.  Just add  the url which FIM was looking into the Central Administration >> Alternate Access Mappings 
Save and exit out from Central Administration and try to uninstall now and it should work.  It worked for me.

  • How do I manually uninstall Photoshop 7 Wiindows 7?

    I have an old install of Photoshop 7 on my laptop (Windows 7 32-bit) that I am unable to uninstall. I have admin rights, but using the Windows program uninstaller tells me that I don't have sufficient rights to uninstall. The original program CD does not have an uninstall option, nor does attempting to re-install from the CD change my ability to uninstall it. A search of the web and search of Adobe's site have support documents for removing PS Elements and the CS versions of PS, but not version 7, at least that I have been able to find.
    I understand the process of manually removing software and removing its entries with RegEdit, I am just looking for a document that lists all the registry entries specific to Photoshop 7. Note: just searching for any "Adobe" or "Photoshop" entries within RegEdit won't work as I have other Adobe software, including a newer versions of Photoshop that I do not want to remove, so I'm looking for a list of all registry keys that are specific to PS7, as well as, the various other folders a PS install creates. Thanks in advance for suggestions.

  • TS3288 how do i manually uninstall intunes

    i need to know how do i manually uninstall itunes from my computer?

    it says that they cant find the itunes.msi
    Many thanks.
    (1) Download the Windows Installer CleanUp utility installer file (msicuu2.exe) from the following Major Geeks page (use one of the links under the thingy on the Major Geeks page):
    http://majorgeeks.com/download.php?det=4459
    (2) Doubleclick the msicuu2.exe file and follow the prompts to install the Windows Installer CleanUp utility. (If you're on a Windows Vista or Windows 7 system and you get a Code 800A0046 error message when doubleclicking the msicuu2.exe file, try instead right-clicking on the msicuu2.exe file and selecting "Run as administrator".)
    (3) In your Start menu click All Programs and then click Windows Install Clean Up. The Windows Installer CleanUp utility window appears, listing software that is currently installed on your computer.
    (4) In the list of programs that appears in CleanUp, select any iTunes entries and click "Remove", as per the following screenshot:
    (5) Quit out of CleanUp, restart the PC and try another iTunes install. Does it go through properly this time?

  • How do I manually uninstall 3.5.6? Each time I attempt to upgrade to 4.0 the install program asks me to reboot which I have done numerous times. Add/Remove Programs prompts the same message when selecting "REMOVE" option.

    Attempting to upgrade Firefox from 3.5.6 to 4.0 but it prompts me to Reboot to finish install. Rebooting PC does not resolve the issue. I get this message when attempting to remove via Windows/XP Control Panel "ADD/REMOVE" programs and if I attempt to execute "FIREFOX 4.0 SETUP" program.
    How can I manually uninstall FIREFOX?

    The easiest way of doing it is to click '''Help '''| '''Check For Updates'''. The first time you do it, it will upgrade to v3.6.16. So you'll have to repeat the same steps to get to version 4.0.

  • FIM Portal Self Service User Provision Frequency

    Hi All,
    I have a question about fim portal self service.If a user updates their AD attributes (i.e telephone number) in the portal, how long before it appears in AD? Presumably it's dependent on a management agent run profile? If so can this be automatically triggered?
    On the other hand, I assume automatic triggerring in a production environment is a bad idea due to load and frequency?
    thanks

    Hello,
    my shedule is currently not the optimal, best way should be:
    1: AD MA Import
    2: FIM MA Import
    3: AD delta sync
    4: FIM delta sync
    5: AD export & delta import (confirm)
    6: FIM export & delta import (confirm)
    I will also bring my shedules to this order in near future. Currently I am in the process to run imports and export in paralell to speed up things using PowerShell Jobs or Workflows.

    Just to be clear, Office 2010 is for Windows.  Office 2011 is for Mac.  If you actually are trying to install Office 2010, you'll need to have installed Windows on your Mac either through Boot Camp or in a virtual machine.

  • How do I manually uninstall CS3 Master Collection?

    I started having problems with Encore, then Premier Pro. The programs have been functioning OK for some years, but started to fail for some reason some months ago.  When I run the Installation program to uninstall it starts off OK showing a progress bar, but after some time it fails to progress and stops. I then tried the CS Cleaner Tool, but that increased the problems, so now I can not launch the installer program at all, and I get a notification that my license is no longer valid. Seems I will need to manually uninstall all CS3 programs (Master Collection).
    I have a MacPro, OSX ver. 10.5.8 (Leopard), as I´ve been told that never versions off the operating system do not function well with the CS3. (I also own ver 10.6). I´ve long time searched the internet for a solution without beein able to solve this, so grateful for any help

    I cannot say I have conclusive help to offer.  At one point in time a couple years back CS3 started to go flaky on me and eventually led to prohibiting me from accessing any of the products that came with it, claiming my license was not valid. 
    Below are some notes I jotted down that served to help me... I cannot say if they will be a help to you. 
    One thing that I found troubling was that there was mention of no support from Adobe for CS3 any longer at various points along the line while trying to find a solution -  hard to accept that a failing license would be ignored.  I think the last bit of info I show below relates to having found someone at Adobe who was willing to try to help despite that... but I managed to fix things with the first bit of info I list before that person got back to me.

  • How do I manually uninstall Adobe Acrobat 9 Pro?

    The program crashed when using compiling the results of a distributed form.
    I cannot open or compile any of my distributed forms, or even open the Tracker.
    I uninstalled the program and reinstlled it, but the same problem exists.
    I cannot use any existing distributed forms or create new ones.
    I would like to try a manual uninstall.
    Reformatting my hard drive is a last resort.
    Thank you for your help.

    Hi Mike
    Thank you for your recommendation to use Filemaker Pro. We will be buying the program soon.
    The documentation for the Microsoft Installer Clean-up tool says 1) that other programs might be uninstalled also, and 2) you should not use it if you have Microsoft Office 2007 installed on your computer. i checked out the referral link for those who have Office 2007 installed, and it gives instructions for uninstalling Office 2007.
    Thank you in advance for your response.

  • Fim portal and fim synchronization

    Hello , 
    I have two Problems with fim 2010 R2 . First i have installed the synchronization manager , the installation is complete and when i check my Active directory the groups FimSyncAdmins , FimSyncPassword, FimSyncBrowse ... are not created. 
    The second Problem is with fim portal i can create objects like distribution goups , security groups so i cannot create users . I mean that i create the user but i cannot see that one in fim fim portal . So when i go to "Manage my requests" the
    status of the creation is completed but i didnt see that any user that section of users is empty . 
    Best Regards 

    Hi deldiaze,
    First, the installation tools of FIM Synchronization does not create group in AD (If you do not specify domain\groupname during the installation, FIM creates local groups). So check your server's group!
    Do you create with the Admin FIM account (the one witch install the FIM portal)?
    Try to rebuild the SQL index of the FIMService Database.
    Regards,
    Sylvain

  • How can I manually adjust the contrast and saturation of my ACD23" display?

    I've used Eye-One software with Gretag MacBeth hardware to calibrate both my ACD23" and my MacBookPro 1920x1200 displays. It worked pretty well, but my ACD23" remains much more contrasty and saturated than my MacBookPro. I'm a pro photographer and I need images to match on these two screens.
    If there was a way to directly, manually adjust the contrast and saturation of the ACD23", I could fix this myself. Is there? Perhaps with some 3rd party software?

    Thanks for the idea, Fred,
    Unfortunately, it does not help with this situation. It changes the contrast of BOTH displays, not just one. And, the displays are already set on "Normal" which is the minimum contrast. What I want to do is lower the contrast of just the ACD23.
    Is there an ICC profile editor out there that would let me reduce the contrast and saturation of an ICC profile?

  • Novatel Mobile Broadband Drivers - how do I manually uninstall them?

    I am using Windows 7 and the Mifi 2200. I have tried to uninstall the Novatel Mobile Broadband drives through the control panel, but it doesn't work. Does anyone know how to manually remove those drivers from my computer? Thank you.

    Actually, sometimes Win 7 will leave the driver/software in the Programs & Features list if there are multiple drivers, etc. with one install.  Such as VZAccess Manager and Mobile Broadband Generic Drivers.
    More than likely if you had restarted the system and went back to the list you more than likely would've seen them removed. What error is the VZAccess Manager/MIFI giving upon the install? 
    Most times it will uninstall the software but not remove it from the list of Programs so you likely don't have anything to worry about.
    To be on the safe side and begin with a clean install of the MIFI.
    Try these steps:
    Go to Control Panel, User Accounts, Change User Account Control Settings, then pull the slider all the way down to "Never Notify"
    1. Make sure both devices are unplugged from the Computer.
    2. Click Start, Control Panel.  Look at the top right of the Control Panel window just under the search box and if it says Category, click on it and choose Large Icons.  This will alphabetically list all items.
    3. Choose Programs and Features
    4. Scroll down and look for VZAccess Manager, Verizon Wireless Firmware update and the like.
    5. If either of these exists, remove them.
    6. Restart the computer, (Not shutdown)
    7. Upon restart go to Start Control Panel, Internet Options.  Click on the "Connections" tab, verify there is nothing listed in the Dialup or VPN connections, if so, click on all the and then click Remove. Close when finished but stay in Control Panel.
    8. From Control Panel, go to Phone and Modems, Click "Modems".  Remove all modems from this list if any with the exception of the internal modem.
    9. Close the Control Panel and disable your Anti-Virus program.  Plug the MIFI in the USB port and begin the install.
    Note:  The MIFI is also a Novatel Wireless device that has Generic Drivers, so you will see them in the Programs and Features list along with the VZAccess.
    Let me know how it goes and if this was of any help.

  • How do I manually uninstall programs on my computer?

    I have so many junk programs on my laptop and im afraid they are taking up space and they are not needed. how to i uninstall these programs without installing someething else to do so?

    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 2.0.1
        2. AppDelete 3.2.6
        3. Automaton 1.50
        4. Hazel
        5. AppCleaner 2.1.0
        6. CleanApp
        7. iTrash 1.8.2
        8. Amnesia
        9. Uninstaller 1.15.1
      10. Spring Cleaning 11.0.1
    Look for them at VersionTracker or MacUpdate.

  • How do I manually uninstall the CS6 beta?

    Prior to seeing or reading the bright red warning of not trashing the beta, it was done.
    Now CS6 won't install. Says an earlier version is on the machine.
    Which specific files must be uninstalled to allow the CS6 installation?

    I had to resort to using the cleaner after my drive crash yesterday…
    Just out of curiosity, did it leave any prior version(s) you may still keep on your machine untouched?  It didn't mess them up?  Have you even tried to use one of those?  Maybe you're a neat freak and uninstalled all prior versions before installing CS6, personally I'm a hoarder myself and keep all older versions of Photoshop installed.
