How do I remove the OS X cd after install?

I am selling my iMac and want to wipe the hard drive and set it up just as if I bought it. So I have installed OS X and don't want to go to the next step after restart (which is registration with apple ID etc.). But, how do I get the OS X cd out before I ship the computer so that it doesn't get damaged during shipping?
Thanks

Clone the DVD to a USB flash drive, then boot from the flash drive to install. When you shut down the computer just remove the flash drive.
Clone using Restore Option of Disk Utility
Open Disk Utility from the Utilities folder.
Select the destination volume from the left side list.
Click on the Restore tab in the DU main window.
Check the box labeled Erase destination.
Select the destination volume from the left side list and drag it to the Destination entry field.
Select the source volume from the left side list and drag it to the Source entry field.
Double-check you got it right, then click on the Restore button.
Destination means the USB flash drive. Source means the DVD image displayed in the DU sidebar.

How do I remove the "normal state" image after applying a "rollover state" image?

I want to make a site similar to http://piecespeople.prosite.com/
But when I apply the rollover image, the original image doesn't vanish, so I can't see the words in my rollover image through the original image.
I've been able to do this effect with the previous version but now I can't.
Please help! THanks!

Thanks Guarav,
But the fill drop down for the normal state is already clear (with red line). This is how it looks for instance. I want to clear the lightbulb in the rollover state so that I see the words behind it.

How do I remove the double calendar entries after upgrading to ios5?

Upgraded to ios5 today on an iPhone 4. I'm now getting double calendar entries. It's not carrying over to my Mac though. Any ideas how to rid my phone of them? Thanks!

I was having the same problem and even started deleting some of the double entries. I went into the "calendars" tab on the top left of the screen inside the calendar app and found that the appointments from my Mac calendars were being displayed along with (scroll down) all the appointments from the iCloud calendars (which are a mirror or backup of the appointments from my Mac). I turned-off the iCloud calendars and the problem was fixed. I guess if I am coordinating appointments from several devices (iPhone and iPad or several family iPhones) I would just leave the iCloud calendars on and turn off my Mac calendars. Otherwise, I'm not sure what's happening here. Any other ideas?

How do I remove the duplicates that appeared after upgrading to iTunes Plus

I upgraded some of my music to the itunes plus (better quality?) and chose to send the old files to the recycle bin. All went well. The new files were added in itunes and there were no duplicates. Later we synced an ipod touch and when asked if we wanted to transfer purchases from the itouch before syncing my son responded yes. This created duplicates of the songs. The problem is ..... How do I tell which is the upgraded song so I can delete the old version?

There are various ways of doing it.
If you go to View>>Options and ensure that "Kind" is checked, old tracks will usually say "Protected AAC..." whereas the iTunes Plus tracks as shown as "Purchased AAC".
You can use this information in a smart play list to get all the tracks you don't want together for easy deletion.
You can also Look at Get info>>Summary tab.
Oldtracks will generally have 128 bit rate and an M4p file extension. iTunes Plus tracks have 256 bit rate and an M4a file extension.

How can I stop the shared mode service after install a single instance DB ?

How do I remove ChatZum (it came up after installing VLC)? :(

I recently installed VLC and my searches in safari began using chatzum. I changed the search provider to google but that just brings me to the google homepage when i type something into my search bar not googling what I have typed in. HELPPP?!

I don't know what you installed, but it wasn't VLC. Where did you get it?
From the Safari menu bar, select
Safari ▹ Preferences ▹ Extensions
Turn all extensions OFF and test. If the problem is resolved, turn extensions back ON and then uninstall them one or a few at a time until you find the culprit.
If you wish, you may be able to salvage the malfunctioning extension by reinstalling it. That will revert its settings to the defaults.

How Can I Locate The Gimp + Open Office After Install

I am a fairly new Mac user so please make your reply easy to follow. I am running Panther 10.3.9 on a G3/400, 320 megs, dsl internet. I have just installed The Gimp, a free open source image manipulation program, the Phoyoshop alternative + Open Office, the free open source Microsoft Office alternative. Both installs took place within the X11 framework but now I cannot locate them. Where have they gone? For example, when I right click on a .jpeg file, then click "open with", The Gimp is not even in the list although I want it to be my main photo program. The same when I right click on a text file, Open Office is not on the list. I just want to put a program icon for both programs on the desktop for easy access. Thanks, Ken.

Unfortunately you are using an old version of OS X, and older versions of Gimp or OO are not as well refined as they now are.
If you are using 10.3.9 you might try Seashore which is not as complete as Gimp, but does not require X11 and is also Open Source. PixelMator is another decent image editor but it is shareware as is Acorn. Photoshop Elements is Adobe's low cost alternative to Photoshop. Find demos and downloads at VersionTracker or MacUpdate.
NeoOffice Aqua 3.0 is another application like Open Office that will run on a PPC without X11, but requires Tiger. The earlier version that will run on Panther is version 2.2.5. Look for these at www.neooffice.org.
All of these applications will run slower on PPC machines than on Intel machines. There's really little you can do about it. If you need something relatively fast but with fewer features you can use AppleWorks.

wa_fieldcat-tabname = 'I_OUTPUT'.    " Curr
wa_fieldcat-fieldname = 'FWAER'.
wa_fieldcat-seltext_l = text-023.

Hello Mudassar,
In SQL Server / T-SQL we don't have a native JSON support, so you would have to implement a solution on your own = parsing the string and remove the "Key" + it's value.
