How do I remove an app from the menubar

I deleted an app form my lanchpad when it was requesting a password as resident on the menubar and when I try to quit it at the menubar it does not close. How do I remove this app from the menubar?

Command-click it and drag it out. If that doesn't work, find and run an uninstaller for that application.

How do I remove an app from the update list that is under someone else's apple id?

How do I remove an app from the update list that is under someone else's apple id? So this way the update always fails because it asks for someone else's password. I don't have the app on my mac, it only appears in the update list. It's just annoying, because the update keeps appearing, and the reminder keeps reminding me that I should install a new update.

You installed a hacked app, originally from the Mac App Store. It contains the receipt for a different app, downloaded using an account that you don't control. You need to identify and remove the hacked app.
Important: The app you need to remove is not necessarily the one named in the App Store alert. For example, the App Store may prompt you to update "Angry Birds" or "Twitter," but the hacked app may be something else entirely. Don't make any assumptions about which app you're looking for. To find it, you must carry out a systematic search with Spotlight.
1. Triple-click anywhere in the line of text below on this page to select it:
kMDItemAppStoreHasReceipt=1
Copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C.
2. In the Finder, press command-F to open a search window, or select
File ▹ Find
from the menu bar. In the search window, select
Search: This Mac
from the row of tokens below the toolbar. Below that is a popup menu of search criteria, initially showing Kind. From that menu, select
Other...
A sheet will drop down. In that sheet, select
Raw Query
as the criterion, then click OK or press return.
Now there will be a text box to the right of the menu of search criteria. That's where you enter the raw search query. Click in that box and paste the text you copied earlier by pressing command-V.
4. The search window will now show all the App Store products that are installed. Compare those search results with the list of your purchases from the App Store. To see the complete list, you may need to unhide hidden purchases. If any apps were download from the App Store using other Apple ID accounts that you control, sign in to the store under each of those ID's and check the purchases.
At least one of the apps in the Spotlight search results is not among your purchases in the App Store. Move each such item to the Trash, after quitting it if it's running. You may be prompted for your administrator password. Empty the Trash.
Quit and relaunch the App Store. Test.
If you find these instructions confusing, ask for an alternative method.

How do i remove an app from the cloud so that I can install it fresh again on my iphone5s

How do i remove an app from the cloud so that I can install it fresh again?

Your apps are not stored in your icloud account. You should be able to delete the app from the device using the wiggling icons and tap the X process and then downloading directly to device from the itunes store wirelessly. Don't do it via iTunes on your computer where a copy of the app is stored.

How do I remove an app from the cloud

Hi Shawn,
Since posting I too have seen all the discussion.
I have found a way to get around my problem.
The problem is that my 11 year old daughter has one of our old 3GS's as her first phone ready for going to her new school. She shares my iTunes account and can therefore see my purchased history on her iPhone. To stop her seeing any Apps in the cloud or films using home share which are not suitable for her 11 years I have enabled restriction on her phone and set the age limit. This works well as all the adult rated Apps, mainly games, do not show up in the purchase history on her phone.
Regards
Paul

How to I remove an app from the App Store I don't want to update?

Here's my problem: There's Angry Bird on my Mac App store and I keep being prompted to update the App from the Mac App store. Except another account was used(not mine) to buy the game($5) from the Mac App store. So every time I'm prompted to update it to get rid of the notification, it asks me to put in the password of that other account. But the thing is it's not even installed on my Mac, it just tells me I have an update for it. I don't want to pay $5 just to remove it. How do I remove Angry Birds' update if it's from another account?

How to move/remove Apple apps from the Appliactions folder?

Hello,
I had recently updated to Lion and now I'm unable to move any applications installed by Lion (eg. iTunes, Launchpad even chess etc..) in the Applications or utilities folders to any other folder. I receive an error:
" "x.app" can't be modified or deleted because it's required by Mac OS X"
Before Lion I used to organize my apps into to different folders, for example I had different folders for things like Games, System, Office, Multimedia software. And I only kept a few apps in the applications folder itself. I can now only do that with third-party apps now. And both my App and Utilities folders are cluttered with applications which I seldom or never use.
Thanks, for any assistance.

In order for any of the Apple software to be properly upgraded or updated it must remain in the HD/Applications folder.
If you move them around or hide them in other folders you're just asking for trouble.

How do I remove an app from the Accessibility tab of Privacy & Security?

I have a few apps listed in the accessibility section of the Privacy and Security system preference pane.
Below you can see there is an app called "update." I'd like to remove it (and one other higher up on the list), and for the life of me I can't figure out how do to it through OS X's GUI. Perhaps the only way is to nuke some plist I'm unaware of.

Shortly after posting this, I stumbled upon this thread: https://discussions.apple.com/message/23717569#23717569
In particular the post from "Alderete" was what worked for me, not the post that was selected as the solution.

How do I remove unwanted updates from the App Store?

How do I remove unwanted updates from the App Store? So you understand better what I'm referring to:
I have the App Store icon in the Dock. When there's an update a red number appears on said icon. Well, I went to check on the updates and it's for 4 different applications I either no longer have or use. One of them is an update for Lion OS users. I'm still on Snow Leopard, so it doesn't even apply to me.
So there they sit... I'm not going to download the updates... so how do I get rid of them?

Hi Andy ..
no longer have or use
If there are updates available for apps you have deleted, try this.
Go to ~/Library/Caches/com.apple.appstore
Move the Cache.db and Updates files from the com.apple.appstore folder to the Trash.
Empty the Trash, restart your Mac.
For any apps you still have installed but do not use, the updates will still be available from the Updates top of the App Store window and show on the red badge on the App Store icon in the Dock.

Open the weather application. You should see 3 white lines at the right below corner and hit that.
It will show the list of locations. Now just swipe to left on any location and you should find a delete option.
Hope it helps.

For some reason, when my Macbook Pro starts up, all of the MS Office applications open. This was not happening when I first purchased the laptop, and I never added these apps to the startup menu. How do I remove these apps from startup?

By default Mac apps do not close when you close the window you were working in. Unlike in Windows when you click the top right X icon in any program is closes the window and the program shuts down. On Mac OS X clicking the X in the top left hand corner only closes that windows and leave the program running in the background. If they are left open and you reboot they will restart with the system and load a window for them.

How do I remove an App from my Itunes Account

You can't permanently delete any items from your purchase history, all you can do is hide them so that they don't show in the Purchased tab for re-downloading : http://support.apple.com/kb/HT4919
But that doesn't appear to be working properly on iOS 7 - hiding the app on your computer and then logging out of your account on your phone by tapping on it in Settings > iTunes & App Store and then logging back in may make it hidden on it.

How do I remove standard apps from an iPhone 5?

I am an IT in a government office who just switched our fleet to iPhones. We are not permitted to use certains apps that are either not in our data contract, touch the Cloud, or cause cost/personnel issues. Those items I try to corral in a folder "Unusable Apps" on a separate page where the user has little eye contact with them (outta sight outta mind right). I go through the motions of turning off every notification, update, share feature, etc. I can find but the icons are still on the phone. I have a fleet of about 100 iPhones and at least half my users are sneaky & curious and often try to reactivate things I have already hidden or turned off per our agency telecommunications policy. I just want them removed all together so I don't have to keep going through this and for those who can't fight temptation - they won't have to anymore. How do I remove standard apps from an iPhone 5?

You may want to repost this in one of the iPhone for Business forums:
https://discussions.apple.com/community/iphone/iphone_in_business_and_education
You'll want to ask about Configurator.
My company uses iPads as part of a Point of Sale System. They have restricted access to many of the built in apps and deployed custom apps.
Best of luck.
