How do remove Safari and MobileMe Mail completely????

I have been having problems with both MobileMe email (I am not on iCloud haven ot upgraded to Lion),
and Safari.
I forward IMAP mail to MAIL from gmail. At one point mail would be sent from the WRONG email address,
    and it began sending what I had just sent back to my inbox as if I had checked to send me a copy - did NOT.
I changed ALL of my email P/W 's and it is working okay so far, but don't trust it will continue. And can mail
pprombles be connected to the Safari problems below?
ALSO...Safari is very slow, will freeze and close, and need to be restarted - but here is a clue that I think
   it needs to come out: occasionally when going from one page to another I will get artifact for a split second that is
    like many tiny (different sized) rectangular boxes in black and blue colors. Never saw my Mac do this before.
Could these be due to an extension? How do you find the extentions for Safari adn remove them to see if that
    will help the problem? I only added AdBlock but according to Apple Ext. it says I have Translate installed to
   read entired pages - which I don't recall installing at all.
I am running Safari 5.1.9 on MacOS 10.6.8 --- it was suggested I up Memory, etc., but I recently reformatter to
decrease need. However, is it possible that all the updates are too large for what I have now? Is does not matter
how much space I have (plenty of room) but what's in it now needs more processor and speed to run because the
updates are less efficient?

Hatter, if I were upgrade for the new OS - what all do I need if I ordered it all to do myself at home? Incl. the type of RAM, or anything else needed please. Thank you. My understanding is that when I upgrade a computer the RAM must match each other if I insert it a new one - for example, if I have 1 GB, I need to get another 1GB and not two 500 MB....etc. Correct?
What about upgrading processors or ????
What do you know about the new Maverick? Or is it too new. Should I just get Lion? and is it better to get the stand alone Lion OS, as opposed to putting in the previous OS's and updating? Will that save space? Thanks.
I am sooooo frustrated with this think bouncing back to freeze, crash and burn I am about ready to go back to PC if MAC is going to model them with a new OS every year. Grrrrrrrrrrr.

How to completely remove safari and all its files?

I have Windows Vista and I need to COMPLETELY remove Safari and ALL its files. It is important that it is completely removed, and I've already tried simply uninstalling (from "uninstall a program" in the control panel)it but it doesn't get rid of EVERYTHING safari. I think some of the files are damaged or something because Safari won't open. How would I do this?
Message was edited by: Friends of Apple

Just go into Control panel and Uninstall programs. Select Safari and select uninstall.

Does anyone know how to make Safari send e-mail? Mine won't and hasn't for some time.

I have been having trouble for some time sending e-mails by Safari - no problems with Mail - Does anyone know how to make Safari send e-mails?

When we first got our new iMac we were able to send e-mail through Safari - somewhere in the last 2-3 years it stopped and we got the failure to deliver message. We then sent e-mails through Mail - it works well and we have gotten used to doing this. However, every once in a while I retry send e-mails through Safari and we still get the failure to deliver notice. This has also happened when we try to forward some e-mails we receive (not all; most get forwarded).

Removed Safari and now can't install it.

For some odd reason, Safari stopped autofilling email addresses in Yahoo mail. I'm not sure if it was something I did, but it definately happened. The first thing I did was to "reset" Safari. That didn't help. So, I decided to download Firefox to see if autofill worked in Firefox. It did. So, I had the bright idea that I must have inadvertently done something to Safari to make it stop autofilling. In continuation of this bright idea, I decided to remove Safari and reinstall it to see if that fixed the problem. It didn't. So, then I thought, "well, perhaps there were some files or other things hidden deep in the emac that I needed to remove in order to completely get rid of Safari". So, I went into spotlight and got rid of every last thing that had the word Safari in it.
I went to apple.com and downloaded Safari 2.0.1. When I tried to install it, I got to the part where you choose where you want to install it and I got the message "You cannot install Safari onto this drive, it requires MacOS 10.4.2. I find this odd, since I have 10.4.6.
I DO NOT have my emac reboot/startup disk. I have somehow lost it.
Does anyone have any recommendations for me?
Thanks, Rich

smithsfan,
Welcome to the Apple Discussions!
It sounds as if you trashed some of the Library and even framework files, not just the user preferences. Do you have a separate Restore DVD or an Applications disk? If so, you can use that to reinstall Safari including it's library files, then use the 2.0.1 installer.
General Safari troubleshooting is in Safari quits unexpectedly
You can call Apple and ask about ordering a replacement OS disk; with proof of registration (i.e., the serial number inside the optical drawer cover) you can order a replacement for considerablly less than buying a new Tiger Install disk. That would let you use Custom installs in Mac OS X 10.4 to reinstall Safari.
(Worst case, you can always use Firefox as your normal browser --- I do, since I prefer it's sidebar for viewing bookmarks, plus it's a consistient interface when using Firefox on that other computer OS.)

Safari and yahoo mail not getting along

Safari and Yahoo Mail don't seem to be getting along this past month

Hi powerbook1701!
It is a shame...Yahoo has always been bad with Safari...I think most people here keep a copy of Firefox/Camino for cases like this when webdesigners don't make their pages compatible with Safari. It's not much of a problem anymore but there are still a few sites depending on where you surf...
Actually the reason I started using Mail is because the standard Yahoo mail wouldn't display custom fonts, etc. on Mac. At that time not even with Firefox for Windows. But I'm glad that I switched because I enjoy using Mail much more that Yahoo's webmail which by the way was never good at searching...
Oops this sounds like Yahoo bashing!!! It's not meant to be...just letting you know other people have the same issues you're experiencing...

How to remove bullets and spacing for url links in the Related Links iview?

I tried to look for a property that I can edit the look-n-feel of the url links in the Related Link iView using "Theme Editor".
All I need is to remove the bullets and increase some vertical spacing between the links.
Currently, it looks like this:
URL iView A
URL Iview B
I go through the whole section of Related Links properties, none of them seems to do what I want.
Here are the list of properties in Related Link section (of Navigation Panel):
Link Color
Text Decoration of Link
Hover Color
Text Decoration of Hovered Link
Initially, I thought "Text Decoration of Link" should be the right property I should look at. But there are a drop-down with 5 options: None, Underline, Blinking, Overline and Line-Through, which really can't achieve what I want.
Thanks for advice.

Hi, Kai.
I checked the Related iView properties (URL Template), I don't see what layoutset it is really using. I am not sure, is that a layout set apply to the Related Link Iview?
For the regular KM iView, I will see what Layout Set I want to apply, then I can go and change the properties (of layout coontroller, collection renderer & resource renderer)you mentioned. But for this Related Link iView, I really don't know. I guess it may be in the code itself.
If there is a layout set for Related Link iView (or the place to apply layout set to it), can you point to me which one is that? (I did a search through the layout set names, I only find the AppQuicklinkExplorer (I used this for Dynamic Nav. Link iView before), if I can aply this layout set to Related Link iView, my problem will be solved.)
Thanks for help.

How do i download and e-mail from a zip drive without opening the file

How do I download and e-mail data from a zip drive without opening the file?

Hi.
If you have a Zip drive, you can handle the file as you would any other file. Copy and paste. Drag and drop. Select and attach as an email attachment.
Zip drive data discs came in two capacities, 100MB and 250MB. So the largest files would not exceed those capacities, depending on the media from which they are pulled.
The trick, I should think, would be finding a working drive that can read the media... and hope that media is not corrupted. Zip media was notorious for failing.
I hope this helps.

Hello jo90733,
I would recommend reinstalling Mountain Lion to replace the missing/damaged components of these applications. While the process shouldn't affect any data (images, music, etc) you have on the system, it's always a good idea to have a backup in place prior to reinstalling.
OS X Mountain Lion: Back up your Mac
http://support.apple.com/kb/PH11371
OS X Mountain Lion: Reinstall OS X
http://support.apple.com/kb/PH10763
Important: You need to be connected to the Internet to reinstall OS X.
Choose Apple menu > Restart. Once your Mac restarts (and the gray screen appears), hold down the Command (⌘) and R keys.
If you’re not connected to the Internet, choose a network from the Wi-Fi menu (in the top-right corner of the screen).
Select Reinstall OS X, and then click Continue.
Follow the onscreen instructions. In the pane where you select a disk, select your current OS X disk (in most cases, it is the only one available).
To start the installation, click Install.

I have a work ipad but they have removed safari and locked it down so i cant put apps from my itunes account onto it. Any ideas on what i can do.

I have a work ipad but they have removed safari and locked it down so i cant put apps from my itunes account onto it. Any ideas on what i can do

Besides the ethical and professional issues involved, the iPad appears to be linked to a different iTunes account than your personal one. Applications are tied to the account, not the device - so if you were able to use your personal account to install the apps in question, you'd be wiping out all the ones your employer put on.
If you feel these apps are necessary for your work, then talk to your supervisor/tech department about them purchasing additional copies for use on the iPad.

I have an Ipad and several Ipods. We have deleted some songs from our devices but they still show up gray shaded. They don't play but I'd like to know how you remove them from your devices completly?

I have several Ipods and an Ipad. We have all deleted music from our devices and the problem we are having is the song itself is gone which is what we wanted but the song title is still on the devices. It's grey and it won't play but I want to know how to remove the deleted songs completely off my devices.

- Reset the iOS device. Nothing will be lost
Reset iOS device: Hold down the On/Off button and the Home button at the same time for at
least ten seconds, until the Apple logo appears.

Go to Settings > General > Reset and tap Reset All Settings.
All your preferences and settings are reset. Information (such as contacts and calendars) and media (such as songs and videos) aren’t affected.

How can I check my MobileMe mail & contacts from another iPhone?

How can I check in on my MobileMe email & contacts from another iPhone or iPad, not my own? When I go to Me.com, the only option it offers is to set up the iPhone with my account -- which is NOT what I want. Is there a workaround or another path to login that doesn't force the "setup"' page on me?

What a dumb decision. It would seem sensible that a mobile visitor to me.com should be able to proceed to the "regular" website and check mail, etc., through the web interface. Obviously -- well, okay, maybe not, but it puzzles me! You might be (as I tried, yesterday) vising the site through the browser on your wife's iPhone, which is already set up with an account there (and it would require cancelling her log-in and completely resetting her iPhone to proceed on the path Apple now requires!), or ya might be using a friend's iPad (my next attempt, a few minutes later!), or etc. etc. etc. Ooops! Brick wall! No options.
Seems like a counter-productive decision, one that's certain to be counter to common-sense needs and goals of Apple users; I can't be the first person to find this dead-end to be frustrating and contrary to expectations. Okay, I have my rant finished, now.
Apple, what was the problem that you were so determined to "fix" with this, ummm, feature? Howsabout a little tiny button hidden in greyscale that allows you to contine to the website, or a forcing URL that bypasses the mobile "set-up" interception? Help?
Thanks, gdgmacguy -- full credit for the answer! Darn it!
Oops, for some reason it credited ME with the correct answer. I'll try to contact Apple support to get it credited to you. This is apparently a screwup in my posting.

How to remove duplicate messages from Mail in Mavericks (POP)

Hello
I'm having some significant problems with Apple Mail, and despite having researched widely, I haven't been able to find a solution yet. Here is my tale of woe...
My set up is that I use Mail with 5 separate accounts, downloading all messages using POP. I keep all my mail so that I have a permanent record of all conversations, going back more than 10 years - this is about 250,000 emails. I'm running the latest version of Mavericks on a 2010 MBP. I have no intention of moving to IMAP - I need to keep a local archive of all my mail.
A few months ago I was having problems with Mail being very slow to load and search emails. I decided to rebuild the mailboxes, but afterwards discovered that thousands of messages in the inbox of one of my accounts (and some of the sub-folders) had disappeared. Once I realised I tried to go back to a recent Time Machine back up, but, for whatever reason, that part of the back up hadn't worked properly and I was unable to recover the previous status. Ileft it while I decided what to do, and had time to deal with it.
The last 2 years worth of emails on that account were still archived on gmail, so last week I decided to try redownloading the whole lot (something like 72,000 messages), and then uplanned to use one of the scripts I was aware of to remove the duplicates to the trash, and then remove any duplicates in the trash forever. That ought to mean I at least had an archive of the last two years of missing messages, even if I had no record of which ones had been flagged or replied to, etc.
The downloading took about 24 hours to complete, and I now have almost 70,000 messages in the inbox of that account. However, I hadn't figured on two things:
1. Mail 'hides' duplicate messages, meaning that all of the messages I've downloaded are showing as unread, and I can't differentiate the ones I already had in my Inbox, and the new downloads. When I click on those apparently unread messages I can see if they have been replied to or forwarded, etc, but there's no obvious way for me to remove the ones I have already dealt with to the trash, without going through them all manually, which is clearly impossible.
2. The scripts I'd found for removing duplicates don't work. Andreas Amann's Remove Duplicates script doesn't work under Mavericks, and he has abandoned the project. I've also tried the remove-duplicate-messages.scpt made by Jolly Roger (http://jollyroger.kicks-***.org/software/), and while it *sometimes* works on individual subfolders on my Mac (but as far as I can tell removes the duplicate in that folder, rather than the newly downloaded version), mostly it doesn't work at all - it creates a 'Remove Duplicate Messages' folder on my desktop, a log inside it and a folder for removed messages, but nothing appears in the duplicates folder.
So, I'm left in a position where I have 70,000 apparently unread messages in my Inbox, a massively bloated Mail library (which has pretty much doubled in size), a slow and unresponsive Mail program. I figure I have a number of options. Either I could abandon the last week's efforts and revert to the version of

How to remove duplicate emails in Mail

Does anyone know if a good app that works in Lion that will help me remove duplicate emails in Mail? There are some options on the web that I've found but they don't seem to work with Lion.

I have found a very satisfactory solution to eliminating my duplicates in Apple Mail, which is to stop using it and switch to Thunderbird.
There's lots that I like better in Apple Mail, but Thunderbird is light-years more flexible in managing your email than is Apple Mail, because Thunderbird is an open platform with excellent Add-ons available, which include the nifty Remove Duplicate Messages: http://bit.ly/tbird-dups. It is stupid that Apple Mail hides duplicate messages in the background & won't allow users to search and destroy them. Frustrating!
As a prologue to that, you need the TB import export Add-on: http://bit.ly/tbirdimportexport
Managing my mail locally on my Mac was a huge project for me, involving integrating tens of thousands of emails. Mail was from gmail, yahoo, and many years of Outlook PST files.
Now that the project is complete, I'm very happy with Thunderbird to manage my email archives. Though I actually would prefer the Lion Apple Mail interface for day to day use, it just isn't flexible enough.

Partial installs - how to remove them and start afresh

Hi,
I'm in the middle of installing BOXI 31 on a 32 bit unix machine, distro Red Hat Ent 5.0.
How do you uninstall the partially deployed BO install. Is there a script that removes what was installed. Or is it simply a case of Add/Remove Programs and then physically removing the files copied top the directories.
I'm keen not to lock up any of the ports from previous installs thereby affecting the workings of the correctly installed version.
Here's the error in more detail below.
Thanks for taking the time to read this post.
I've managed to partially install the software but got an error midway through of
[error] Errcode 1: cp -r /home/o2mars/perl/* /home/o2mars//perl
[error] [PostInstallScripts::WaitForCMS] CMS is not started, giving up.
~
I presume this is due to my hosts file
# Do not remove the following line, or various programs
# that require network functionality will fail.
127.0.0.1               localhost.localdomain localhost
::1             localhost6.localdomain6 localhost6
192.168.0.162   oxygen

Hi Caroline,
cheers for the reply.
Impatient and went ahead and removed the the directories completely - bit rash but it worked OK.
On reinstall still managed to get that error but the progress of the install as a whole didn't fall over as it did previously on about 55% of Total Progress. This time it reached about 90% then came back with the message of
BO installed with Errors etc.
I then ran the setupinit.sh, everything was OK then on login to CMC and InfoView.
I asked around the traps here (my colleagues would have loads more experience with Unix than I) and the said don't worry about it once the perl dir was there since it seemed to be copying to itself.
[o2mars@oxygen ~]$ du -hs perl
67M     perl
so not as big as you say.
It is a bit of a worry I suppose I would have preferred a clean install entirely.
So far only the Red Hat Ent 5.0 and BOXI 3.1 itself are the only programs loaded so it would have only been the partial installs that could have consumed those port resources (it happened on a previous install I did before Christmas)
Thanks for your tips
Cheers, Ed
