How do I totally remove all adobe products and associated material from my Macintosh computer?

The title is my question. (not allowing me to simply copy what I wrote is part of why I've grown to hate Adobe so much!)

This is the Acrobat forum so the only Adobe product we can really comment on is Acrobat Pro. That has an uninstall app in the Acrobat Pro folder within Applications.

  • How can I totally strip ALL google products and services from my 3GS?

    Hi,
    I am extremely unhappy with the direction google is taking with their new privacy policy.
    I am terminating use of ALL google services and products in my personal life and paying to use other services that respect my privacy.
    I want to know how I can completely strip ALL things google from my 3GS..
    I bought it used second hand so I am using it on T-mobile because AT&T is the WORST company on earth.  But let's not worry about that, I will never, ever use AT&T, I would do without before I wouldgo back to them.
    All I can find are lots and lots of webpages and apps to ADD google nonsense to your iPhone but I can find none at all about how to remove them.
    I want the google search removed from Safari, I want it replaced with anything else but google.
    I want google maps removed, I want google, all google removed from my phone.
    Surely there must be a way to do it??
    Thanks..

    I understand what you are saying, but there is no way to avoid being tracked if you use the Internet. None of those tools block you completely, and if you use ebay or amazon then ebay and amazon know everything about you, and take advantage of it. Blocking Google won't stop it. The one you really need to fear is acxiom*, who collect data from everyone (including amazon and ebay and your bank[s]) and aggregate it. And sell it to the highest bidder, such as the CIA. Adblockers block the ads you see, but don't prevent the advertisers from knowing who you are. The only way to avoid being tracked is to buy only in real stores, never on the Internet, and pay only cash, never credit cards or debit cards. And use only a basic cell phone with pay-as-you-go SIM cards bought with cash. For some idea of what I am saying read The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo. The technology discussions in it are dead on.
    *I bet you've never heard of them, which is the way they prefer it to be.
    Well I don't care about the government too much. They monitor everything anyway and there's nothing anyone can do about that. Oh well.
    But the greedsters, the banksters, the profiteers, the one percenters, those are the ones I despise deeply.
    They have no right to know what size clothes I wear or how much I weigh or what I eat or what TV shows I like to watch or what color my bathroom tile is or what color the pillow cases on my bed are or even what my birthday is. It's none of their friggin business.
    On a PC, and I use Linux, I can install add ons to my browser to deny those greedy, selffish corporations access to a great deal of my private life. I use Ghostery, for one, to block a lot of those nasty tracking methods and it tells me that it's currently blocking 778 "web bugs". I update it every few days and it usually grows by at least 10 new bugs every time. I use adblock plus and I've made sure to ad filters to block everything to do with google and facebook, in addition to a vast quantity of other evil things it blocks.
    It only gets worse, it never, ever gets better. What is allowed in the US is illegal in many European countries because they take privacy seriously. Over here, it's a joke. It doesn't exist. Profit before people is the American way of life. It makes me sick. It's just pure, distilled, unadulterated greed.
    I would actually like to use a VPN service (I'm looking into it) to further deny the greedsters additional prying into my life.
    I do know that Amazon and ebay track you but in many cases I have no other options, I live in a small town and all we have is one Walmart store. Everything else went out of business because Walmart drove everyone else under and now they are the only game in town. So when I can't find something there, I have no choice other than to buy online. So that can't be avoided I'm afraid. But really, big whoop, so they know I buy books on Buddhism from Amazon and Tibetan prayer flags on ebay. I'm sure that's subversive stuff that they can use against me someday.. *smirk*.... But still, that's MY business  and no one else other than the vendors I buy from.
    The vermin that data mine and sell what they can find out about me through their spying on my activities, those people (corporations) are the scum of the universe and they don’t deserve to share the same oxygen source as I do.  To them, I wish upon them ill will and great misfortune.
    My distaste and disdain for technology grows ever more bitter as time goes on.  Perhaps some day in the not to distant future I will turn my back on this modern world and move to  Nepal to become a Buddhist nun.  A bowl of rice and a saffron robe will be the only things I will need then.

  • How do I completely remove all of firefox and give it a clean install?

    Every time I go to yahoo.com one of the plugins I have installed crashes firefox. I can't quite figure out which one it is, I deactivate them or run FF in safe mode and it still crashes. I've uninstalled FF and reinstalled with the newest version and all the plugins and bookmarks carry over so I can't get a clean install. I was able to install an older version of FF and it worked fine. So short of running old unsafe software or trolling through my registry and potentially messing more things up, I am at a loss.

    Anything that is involved with LSP (i.e. links itself in the network connection) is suspicious.

I don't like Adobe -- full of slow motion products ... I have better pdf reader than Adobe product ... I don't need Adobe ... I suppose someone will produce flash plugin that works with Opera too .  Good bye Adobe.

I like usability of Opera, it is also enough speed for browsing ... Adobe is like Microsoft ... nothing but slow ... slow and more slow ... for support too

  • How can't I move all my contacted and photos from my old iCloud account to my new account

    How can't I move all my contacted and my photos from my old iCloud account to my new iCloud account . And how do I know I got photos saved on my iCloud account

    If you sign into your old account using your iPhone and turn on contacts (Settings > iCloud) then once all of your contacts are on your iPhone turn contacts back off and select keep on my iPhone.  Then delete account on the old account and sign in with your new iCloud account and turn on contacts and select merge.  That will get your contacts over.
    If you have photos stored in iCloud it will be in My Photo Stream.  This section only keeps the last 30 days of auto uploads from any of your devices or computers that are using this feature.  You can access these photos by signing into the old iCloud account in Settings > iCloud and enable Photos > My Photo Stream.  If you have any photos in there, they will load into your Photos App.  In the Photos App, tap Albums in the bottom right, then tap My Photo Stream.  There is no way to upload them to your new iCloud account once you sign into it short of creating a Shared Photo Stream and inviting yourself to it.
    In the end you should really try to keep one Apple ID for everything when possible as there is no way to merge Apple IDs and you can end up in a tangled mess.
