How do you deactivate software?

If you mean uninstall it, just drag it to the trash or check to see if it has its own uninstaller.  Use Spotlight to make sure all the various bits and pieces of the app are deleted or use AppZapper to get rid of everything at once.

  • How do you deactivate Photoshop CS3?

    How do you deactivate Photoshop CS3?  I installed CS5.

    Not a requirement…
    I know it's not an Adobe requirement, but there can be and are nefarious consequences if you don't. 
    Don't ever underestimate the blunders and incompetence of the Adobe installer/uninstaller team.  Photoshop engineers and program managers have publicly shown their contempt for the members of said team and, privately, at least some have expressed a desire to wring their necks.  A former principal program manager called the installers and uninstallers "a huge embarrassment to us."
    Therefore, I repeat:  if you wanted to uninstall CS3, you should have done it BEFORE installing CS5.

  • How  do you deactivate an old device to add a new device?

    iTunes allows 5 devices to store and sync.  How do you deactivate an old device to add a new device

    Not true at all.
    You can sync as many devices to one library as you like.
    You can only authorize 5 computers to your itunes account.  This has nothing to do with ipod/iphone/ipad/Apple tv

  • How do you deactivate a license when the hard drive crashes?

    How do you deactivate a license on a machine when the hard drive crashes?

    My backup is done with Shadow Protect, which as well as providing incremental backups - it adds any changes to the back up every 18 minutes - it also allows you to keep an image of your boot drive.  This image has t be accompanied with a bootable CD, so if your boot drive crashes, you can be up and running again in minutes.  I've never needed that feature, but I have lost two data drives in the last two years, and Shadow Protect came to the rescue both times.  One of thos drives was have a raid0 with many hundreds of hours of video editing.  It would have been a huge disaster to have lost that.

  • HT1420 How do you deactivate your itunes account?

    How do you deactivate your itunes account?

    Not sure what you mena by deactivate. You can deauthorise your account on your computer's iTunes via the Store > Deauthorise This Computer menu option as mentioned on the page that you posted from.
    If you want to delete an account then that is not currently possible, all you can do is remove any personal info form it and stop using it. But any content that was bought/downloaded with it will remain tied to it, so only that account can authorise its content on a new computer, redownload the content, and download updates to its app.

    Hello Edward,
    Welcome to the world of Mac.  I chuckled when I read your question as this was also my first interrogation when I went from Windows to Mac OS.  I do hope you enjoy the switch... just get used to things being simple.

  • How do you remove software installations???

    Hello.
    I am coming from the PC world. How do you UNinstall software on a MAC? There's no uninstall program. How do you make sure that all associated files and 'trash' are removed with the software? Is there a registry to manipulate? I've used Linux, and I don't see a package manager that takes care of the housekeeping. Anyway, you get the idea.
    Informaion greatly appreciated.
    Thank you,

    Hello, welcome to the Mac world.
    Generally speaking, all you need to do to uninstall a program is drag it to the trash and empty it. If the program is in it's own folder, like Photoshop for example, then you can trash the whole folder and its related files. Some programs may leave behind small settings files that hold your Preferences but they are small and it doesn't hurt to leave them. Preferences and other settings are kept in either the Preferences or Application Support folders - they are located in either the Library folder or youruser/Library folder.
    Usually the case is this - if you install a program by manually copying it to the Applications folder, then all you have to do is drag it out to deinstall. If installing requires the use of an installer program, then try running the installer again to see if it offers an uninstall feature.
    There is no registry to muddle with - that's a Windows-only "feature".

    Another user had success doing the following:
    I got some help from an apple assistant on the phone. It is kind of round about way to get in.
    Here is what he said to do and it is working for me...
      a. on the device that is asking you for the security questions go to "settings", > "store" >
          tap the Apple ID and choose view"Apple ID" and sign in.
      b. Tap on payment information and add a credit/debit card of your preference then select
          "done", in the upper right corner
      c. sign out and back into iTunes on the device by going to "settings"> "store" > tap the
          Apple ID and choose "sign-out" > Tap "sign -in" > "use existing Apple ID" and you
          should be asked to verify your security code for the credit /debit card and NOT the
          security questions.
      d. At this time you can remove the card by going back in to edit the payment info and
          selecting "none" as the card type then saving the changes by selecting "done". You
          should now be able to use your iTunes store credit without answering the security
          questions.
    It's working for me ...I just have to put in my 3 digit security pin from the credit card I am using.
    Good Luck friends!

  • HT3597 how do you deactivate voice control so when the phone is in your pocket, you can play music without it stopping all the time??

    how do you play songs uninterupted when the phone is in your pocket?

    Tap Settings, tap General, tap Passcode Lock, tap Turn Passcode On. When that is enabled, below there is an option to toggle Voice Dial on or off (note: Music Voice Control is always enabled). Unfortunately, if you do not want Passcode Lock on, you cannot disable this feature.
