How do I remove addons that are no longer compatible but still installed?

I have some addons dragging on with me since FF 3.6 and they're not any more compatible with 5.0 as they were with 4.0.
Is there any way to remove them? There's no option to uninstall from within the standard interface as they're simply not active.
I know re-installing FF would probably be an option, but that's my last resort.

Thanks.
See, the problem is that when an addon is no longer compatible there seems to be no easy option to get rid of it, certainly not from the standard menu level.
Compatibility is one thing, but it's not that I really need them, I simply want to get rid of them.
The ones I mean (on FF5.0) are:
* DivX HiQ 2.1.1.94
* DivX Plus Web Player HTML5 2.1.1.94
* Firefox Synchronization Extension (from the Nokia Ovi Suite) 7.3.4.74
* HP Smart Web Printing 4.60
* Skype extension 5.3.0.7280
I think the problem will grow among other users with FF release schedule getting faster... not all developers will be able to keep up, I think.

How can i remove devices that are no longer synced with my laptop?

Previously, I gave my daughter my old iPhone, as I had purchased a new one, but I am unable to delete the device off my computer. I would also like to remove the backups that I have on my computer to free up some space, but I can't manage to find it. Help?? Thanks.

Your backups can be deleted here: iTunes>Preferences(under the edit menu in Windows)>Devices...highlight & delete here.
That's all you need to do.

How do you remove photo that are synced to your phone

How do you remove photos that are synced to your phone

Hi amandafromcroydon,
Thank you for visiting Apple Support Communities.
To remove synced photos, you sync again without those photos selected for sync.
iTunes: Syncing photos
To delete synced photos and videos from your device
In iTunes, click the Device button in the upper right corner. (If viewing the iTunes Store, click the Library button in the upper-right corner first.)
Click the Photos tab in the resulting window.
Choose "Selected albums" and deselect the albums or collections you want to delete.
Note: To delete all synced photos, deselect "Sync Photos from" and, when asked, click "Remove photos."
Click Apply.
Take care,
Nubz

How do you deauthorize computers that are no longer functional?

How do you deauthorize computers that are no longer functional?

i followed the directions to deauthorize one "fried" computer and one old Windows laptop i no longer use from my new MacBook Pro. When i go into iTunes on my new MacBook Pro, however, iTunes says i still have 5 authorized computers and i can't set up my music on my laptop using iTunes Match. I did not deauthorize all my computers because i still have an iphone and two ipads. Now that i've invoked deauthorize, what am i supposed to do for the next 12 months until i can deauthorize again?

So, I want to gift my old iPad there are one or two apps that I'd like to pass along as well that are no longer available but function perfectly. Is there a way to pass them on to the new owner?

I'm new to groups. So bear with me. I have a first generation iPad that I want to gift. There is a game on it that is no longer available but continues to work just fine and I'd like to include it with the iPad. Any way to do this?

Thank you JB. I will try to shut down the analytical optimism that runs through my brain and live with this "ain't gonna happen" scenario...someday.
I listen to a NPR classical music station and every year they give away a pod or pad(64G) that has a fine collection of classical music already installed on it. If iTunes is the only way to put music on an iPad how are they able to do this and still give away an iPad that someone can "make their own"?

How do I remove songs that are only in iCloud?

Hello. Sorry if this is in the wrong category.
I realize there are going to be tons of questions since iOS 7 just came out, but I have a question about iCloud.
So now that I have the new iOS, the music library on my iPhone displays my iCloud music as well as what I had synched to the phone. However, there are some songs showing up that I deleted from my iTunes library on my computer months ago. They are not on my computer, so I cannot delete them from iCloud as I delete them from my computer. There are a few songs that I will keep on the Cloud, but I don't want them all.
How would I remove these songs that can only be found in my Cloud? I don't some of them anywhere, at all. I'm not paying for iTunes match.
Thanks in advance!

Hey, Gail,
Sync didn't work last night even with the new version of iTunes. I think I solved it though.
Went to Settings > General > Usage > Music: Deleted all data that way
Then turned on the "Show all music" option in the Music settings. Went to music and downloaded from the iTunes cloud the music I wanted on my phone. With that done, I shut off the "Show all music" option again. This left just the songs that I had downloaded.
I'm sure I could probably accomplish this similarly by dragging and dropping to my phone from iTunes. I'll have to give this a shot. Worst case scenario, it doesn't work. But I've found a way that does.
So far, those songs I didn't want haven't shown back up. Whether this is a permanent fix, I haven't had time to see yet. But it's worked at this juncture.
Thanks for checking in,
Ryan

Which OS? Lion? If so, you're getting bit by the resume feature. Welcome to the iOS world of nonthinking, wherein the OS decides everything for you, whether or not that's what you want.

Making pictures that are black and white but still have color someplace(s)

Is there a way in aperture to make pictures black and white but still leave color on some objects. for example, having a picture of someone holding a glass of red wine and having everything except the wine black and white?

A couple of ways this can be done
- non destructively:
Use the Color adjustment to reduce the saturation of all the colors you dont want,
and leave only the saturation of the saturation of the color you do want.
Use the Ranges to more selectively choose the right color you want to leave.
- destructively:
Use the Dodge&Burn plug-in from Apple.
Set the brush to Desaturate, choose its strength and size appropriately.
Then just desaturate all the area's that need to be desaturated.

How do I delete files that are no longer referenced in the catalog

Over the years there have been a number of files (~650 raw files) that got removed from the catalog but not from my hard drive. This has mostly happened because I used the wrong keystroke combination. But now I'm stuck how can I find and remove these files?
Best strategy so far:
- Use Synchronize folders to find files missing from the catalog
- Reimport with a keyword - deleteme.
I would really rather avoid this because I really don't want to risk any chance of having these files back. Any other ideas?
Cheers

This method won't work, if you want to preserve a custom folder structure, but I'll mention it anyway…
You could select all images in your current catalog and perform an "Export as Catalog…". Make sure to check "Export negative files" and "Include available previews" and select a destination folder for the export.
That will copy your catalog, the original images with all info, adjustments etc. and the previews. Once completed open the newly exported catalog and verify that all images were successfully copied to the new location.
If all went successfully, you can then delete your original images folder, which will get rid of all the non-referenced images in one fell swoop.

How do I recover photos that are in my library but I can't find the files?

After uploading pics of a car accident I was involved in (to iPhoto 6), I moved them to a separate folder. Now they appear at the top of the iPhoto screen in the Library, and the information appears in the lower left hand corner, but I can't view them, and they're no longer in the folder I moved them to.
These pics might save me a lot of money, so I would very much appreciate a solution.

It is strongly advised that you do not move, change or in anyway alter things in the iPhoto Library Folder as this can cause the application to fail and even lead to data loss
Where did you move them to? Did you do this using the Finder? This would explain why iPhoto can't find them.
Of course you backed up this important data, right?
Try a spotlight search for them
Kind -> Images
Size -> greater than -> 100kb
Search the whole comuter. It'll find every image.
If they're not in there, then you have trashed them.
You may have some luck revocering them using something like File Salvage
