How do I uninstall Mozilla Firefox from my MacBook Pro?

I want to uninstall Mozilla Firefox from my MacBook Pro and am not sure how to go about it. I am looking for specific, step by step instructions. I have not tried anything yet (other than to try to find instructions on You Tube)
Thanks for your help!

Since the "FREAK OpenSSL bug" in the Mac which has been making the news over the last couple of days doesn't apply to Firefox but does affect Safari and other Mac browsers, you might want to hold off uninstalling for a bit. But if you must, drag the Firefox application to the Trash. Next, locate your Firefox profile in /Users/your user name/Library/Application Support/Firefox/Profiles and drag that to the Trash too. Then empty the Trash.

How do I uninstall print drivers that do not work?

I've downloaded the HP drivers for 10.6 from here
http://support.apple.com/downloads/HPPrinter_Drivers_for_Mac_OS_X_v106
However, I am still unable to get my HP PSC 1400 to print via the Time Capsule. Since the driver package ended up being +500 MB, is there any way that I can uninstall these drivers to regain that space?

So the printer drivers for the PSC1400 series unfortunately did not make it onto the DVD. They will be available through a software update at some point in the future. You should able to install the 10.5 solution to get basic functionality working again. As for deleting the files, yes there is a way, but it still leaves some of the files laying around so software update won't work.
If you want the space though, most of the files are in /Library/Printers/hp. That being said the software update to provide printing support will probably put most of them back.
Just trying to help.

How do I uninstall a program from a macbook pro

I am trying to install the update for WOW but it won't install, On my desktop I had to totally uninstall WOW and do a clean install from the MoP DVD's and figured since the same issue with installing it was the same on desktop and macbookpro uninstalling WOW would be the best way to go. Help?? If I drag the WOW file to the trash will that do it or am I missing something else. I have never uninstalled any program from the Macbook as yet.

How Do I Uninstall Cuda Driver from my Macbook Pro

Hi Guys,
I recently installed the Cuda Driver for my Mac because I was having problems playing Diablo 3, and later, working on Google Chrome.
The common problem is that I'll get a black screen, my music starts looping, there's nothing I can do but to hard reset my MBP.
It's a common problem as I've done my search online and always read about this happening on the MBP, so I've been desperately trying to find ways to stabilized the performance of my MBP.
I've got update combos installed, and checked for latest software updates and I read somewhere that you should not install other graphic drivers into your MBP and that is why I've opted to remove it. I simply went to my "System Preferences", right click on the Cuda icon and remove it from my "Preference Pane", does that mean I have successfully unistalled Cuda?
I wanted to ask your opinion on this as I've been experiencing these crashes alot more frequently lately. If I were to bring this in to a Mac Shop and get a diagnostics run, what could be the potential problem and how much may the repairs cost? Is this a Logic Board problem or a Graphics Card problem?
I've got a Mac OS X 10.6.8, running on an Intel Core i& 2.66 GHz chip, with 4GB 1067 MHz DDR3, I feel it's still good enough to use and I don't see the need to change to a brand new MBP.
Thanks for reading this and I appreciate any input or help you may offer me.
Regards,

Uninstalling Software: The Basics
Most OS X applications are completely self-contained "packages" that can be uninstalled by simply dragging the application to the Trash. Applications may create preference files that are stored in the /Home/Library/Preferences/ folder. Although they do nothing once you delete the associated application, they do take up some disk space. If you want you can look for them in the above location and delete them, too.
Some applications may install an uninstaller program that can be used to remove the application. In some cases the uninstaller may be part of the application's installer, and is invoked by clicking on a Customize button that will appear during the install process.
Some applications may install components in the /Home/Library/Applications Support/ folder. You can also check there to see if the application has created a folder. You can also delete the folder that's in the Applications Support folder. Again, they don't do anything but take up disk space once the application is trashed.
Some applications may install a startupitem or a Log In item. Startupitems are usually installed in the /Library/StartupItems/ folder and less often in the /Home/Library/StartupItems/ folder. Log In Items are set in the Accounts preferences. Open System Preferences, click on the Accounts icon, then click on the LogIn Items tab. Locate the item in the list for the application you want to remove and click on the "-" button to delete it from the list.
Some software use startup daemons or agents that are a new feature of the OS. Look for them in /Library/LaunchAgents/ and /Library/LaunchDaemons/ or in /Home/Library/LaunchAgents/.
If an application installs any other files the best way to track them down is to do a Finder search using the application name or the developer name as the search term. Unfortunately Spotlight will not look in certain folders by default. You can modify Spotlight's behavior or use a third-party search utility, Easy Find, instead. Download Easy Find at VersionTracker or MacUpdate.
Some applications install a receipt in the /Library/Receipts/ folder. Usually with the same name as the program or the developer. The item generally has a ".pkg" extension. Be sure you also delete this item as some programs use it to determine if it's already installed.
There are many utilities that can uninstall applications. Here is a selection:
AppZapper
Automaton
Hazel
CleanApp
Yank
SuperPop
Uninstaller
Spring Cleaning
Look for them at VersionTracker or MacUpdate.

What makes you think they aren't installed? Bluetooth support is part of the Mac OS, so unless someone removed it, it's there.

Read the user manual that came w/the printer/scanner, contact Epson to see if you need to update your scanner drivers to work in Mavericks also check Software Update. Check out the following links:

How do I uninstall a software from my macbook?

I recently switch to Apple. can someone tell me how to how do I uninstall a software from my macbook?

As mecklists indicated, just removing the "icon" from the Application folder is all you need to do in most cases (this is THE beating argument for OS X in my mind compared to Windows with its complex uninstallers; and then still having dozens of registry entries and files spread over the entire harddisk).
However if you want to get sure that any and all files have been removed, you may look at /Library/Application Support folders available under your user's home and the startup volume's home directory.
You may simply look for files and folders that are related to the software you have deleted. Anyway, be careful doing so. Not that you mistakenly remove files associated with other applications.

How do I print from wifi-connected MacBook Pro to printer connected via USB to Win7 PC?

This is really frustrating, and I did not think that anything could be this difficult on a Mac. I have a Windows 7 Home Premium desktop PC connected via ethernet cable to wireless router, and a printer connected to the PC via USB. I recently bought my first ever Mac - a MacBook Pro, which is connected via wifi through the same router. All I want to do is to print files from the MacBook Pro on the printer connected to the PC. I have spent a LOT of time searching all over the web. Have tried some 2 or 3 different methods but none of them work for me, e.g. I shared the printer on the Win7 desktop and then added the printer on the MBP with the IP option with LPD/LPR Protocol, after enabling LPD Print Service on the PC. The printer gets added but when I give the command to print from the Mac, the print job shows up on the printer queue but the "Printing" soon changes to "Error Printing" (or something like that) and nothing gets printed. Then, I have to switch off the printer, remove the print job from the queue and switch on the printer again to get it out of the error state.
I also tried setting up the printer on the MBP using CUPS Admin interface, i.e. localhost:631. Again, printer gets added but document does not print. The third way I tried to add the printer was using the Windows option in the Add Printer dialog, and typing in an smb: URL but no luck with that, either.
Please, can anyone help me? This is driving me crazy
Oh, and the devices are:
1) Windows 7 Home Premium Desktop PC
2) MacBook Pro running OS X Mountain Lion
3) HP Deskjet F2110 printer
Thanks...

First Install Bonjour for Windows on your Windows machine. This will allow the printer to be discovered.
