How do I remove BlackBerry Maps from the OS?

I have a Z10 running 10.3 it's a great update and so far love the BB Assistant.  There is one big sore point for me and that is your decision to deeply integrate BB Maps with 10.3 and Assistant. 
Appologize upfront but I have to ask....Why would you integrate a lagging-edge Mapping App with an otherwise leading-edge OS in 10.3? 
So long story short...BB Maps doesn't work for me.  (No Walking, Mass No Transit, No Satellite or Street View equivilants.)  The bottom line is that enterprise users need more than what BB Maps offers today and for the foresable future.  Just supremely frustrated about this situation and feel bad because 10.3 is great. 
So the question is How do I remove BB Maps from 10.3 or completely disable it. I just want it gone at this point. Please help....I'm so totally frustrated that you can't easily remove it! 
Thank you and please let me know as soon as possible how to accomplish this. 
Solved!

Good news...Just to let you know I did find a way to remove BB Maps. 
Even through  it's a core app  by reverting to a previous version  of BB Maps I was able to delete it from the OS.  iBest part is there was no impact to the OS and everything else works as normal.  Please Please ...if your going to make BB Maps a core app please make sure its a world class app and it works for all Enterprise users.  (Not just for drivers)  
I can truely say my BB OS 10 experence is much better now without BB Maps.  If BB isn't going to invest in Maps then please don't make it a core app and tightly integrated into the OS.  I think at this point BB would be better off outsouring BB Maps to one of the leading Map providers such as Nokia, Mapquest, Bing/MS or even dare I say Google Maps.  I think the BB community would be much happier with any of the first three. 
Thanks

How can I remove my phone from the joint Apple ID and remove myself from finding out what he is up to during Freshers week!

    You have to use a different Apple ID for your son.

  • 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.

  • I bought my friend's used laptop. She doesn't know how to get her itunes account off the laptop, so I'm not able to do anything. How do I remove her account from the laptop?

    I bought my friends Toshiba laptop. Her itunes account is on there, hooked up to a credit card. She doesn't remember her ID. I think I had it emailed to her by typing in her email address and first and last name. Now that she probably HAS her Apple ID and Password, how do we remove her account from the laptop so I can use MY itunes?

    Delete the ENTIRE iTunes folder from her user directory.
    Frankly, you should be restoring the laptop as new, either using the restore CD provided by Toshiba or by reinstalling Windows with a Windows CD to remove ALL of her personal information.

  • 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.

  • How do I remove a device from the list?

    I had an old Bluetooth device that I no longer own. Its name still appears in my Bluetooth list. How do I remove it? The Troubleshooting manual says:
    8. How do I remove a device from the device list?
    Using the Bluetooth preferences, select the device you want to remove to highlight it, then click the minus sign. It is recommended that you remove a device from this list while the device is connected.
    This does not work. There is no minus sign anywhere. I tried clicking the minus sign on my keyboard, but that is not it. Any suggestions?

    Its name still appears in my Bluetooth list.
    What Bluetooth list? You've completely neglected to tell us what mobile device or computer running what operating system you are referring to.
    I'll make a guess that you're using a Mac. If I'm right, the minus sign is here:

  • How do I remove an icon from the dock of an iMac 10.9.5.?  Dragging doesn't work although I have tried a number of different places.  I recall right clicking used to give me a remove option.

    How do I remove an icon from the dock of an iMac Maverick, 10.9.5?  I've tried dragging different places: desktop, finder list etc.  No luck.

    Drag up towards the centre of the screen & hold for a second or so. The icon will have the 'smoke cloud' appear, let go & it will be removed.
    There should also be a 'Remove from Dock' option in the popup menu. It is in the 'Options' section . ctrl+click will 'right click' if right clicking is disabled.
    If this is not possible the Dock is locked (this may happen on a 'Managed Mac' normally setup by a company or school etc). See your tech support in this case.

    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.
