How do you uninstall the wireless service and lenovo battery indicator from the task bar.

Was wondering if there is a way to remove them from the taskbar. Initially I had just the battery indicator and then I downloaded all the lenovo updates (for bios, etc.) and got the wireless service indicator too. They seem kind of redundant to me, as windows 7 already has their own on the task bar and they're just taking up additional space.
I'd atleast like to get rid of the wireless service.
Will this effect anything? Are they that important?

Right click on the Lenovo battery gauge in the taskbar, click "Launch Power Manager", click Options, clear "Show Power Manager Gauge in taskbar" check box.  If Options tab is not available, switch to Advanced mode (upper right corner of Power Manager).
Don't recall specifics for Lenovo network icon, but is probably just as simple.  Would be better (IMHO) to get rid of Access Connections altogether.
Removing the icons will have no affect on anything, except your piece of mind from removing these ugly and redundant symbols of bloatware.  They are NOT important.

    Rather than fiddle with the tar file, if it wasn't saved, or using Pacifist, simply DL and install the

  • How do you alter the bookmarks bar on an iMac?

    How do you alter the bookmarks bar on an iMac?

    Safari bookmark bar is viewed by clicking on the book icon on the far left side of the bar, and selecting the Bookmarks Bar Collection.
    Drag bookmarks and folders into the Bookmarks bar Collection or directly into the bookmarks Bar if you want them to appear there.   You can edit them right on the spot by clicking on them once.
    If you mean the Dock, the translucent bar that starts at the bottom of the screen (which you can put on the side of the screen), just drag items to the left side of the Dock's divider that are applications you wish to keep a shortcut to.  Folders to the right side.   When you minimize a window with the yellow control, it minimizes to the same side of the divider as the folders and documents you might drag to the Dock.   Note, the Dock is only a shortcut.  Many mistake it for a folder.  It is not.     If you want your application to be dragged out of a DMG you just double clicked, drag it to your Hard drive -> Applications folder.  Dragging it to the Dock will only make it inaccessible when you dismount the image.  And when you trash the image, the application is gone.  Only if you store it in your Hard drive -> Applications folder is it safe.
    If you mean the Finder window left sidebar just drag items into it between the icons already there. Your Finder menu's Preferences allows you to select default folders and devices to show there.

    Couple comments concerning this:
    You cannot make it larger.
    On My MacBook Pro it has a high resolution screen. 1152 x 720 resolution is not listed. if you think your type in the menu bar is small, you should see mine!
    I personally would never recommend anyone orders on with Hi-Res.
    No matter what resolution I use other than 1680 x 1050 ( max listed for my Notebook) the sharpness is not acceptable to me.
    Wrote to apple concerning the menu display along with numerous others and have been totally ignored.

    Hi Norm,
    1. I've been researching, and, with a few exceptions which are not acceptable to me, I believe you are correct.
    4. I really have no choice, I have to reduce the res to see text.
    5. Apple does not reply to feedback, so don't feel ignored. I've also sent feedback and emailed Jobs, and maybe, someday, after enough of us do that, this will get "fixed." Meanwhile, I'm also often at 1152x720.

  • OSX Mountain Lion Server - how do you uninstall this including services

    Hi All,
    Sorry if the question has been asked before.
    I have Mountain Lion 10.8.5 and installed OSX Mountain Lion Server (2.2.2) and run into a couple of issues after installed successfully.
    * I no longer can add users and groups.
    * Open Directory fails to connect.
    So I read some forums and uninstalled the server by trashing it, deleting /Libaray/Server, empty trash and reboot. But when I reinstalled the server it renabled all the services that I had previously and still not able to add users and groups. Open Directory fails to connect "not able to load replica" So I try to create a new OD and get an error the server is already a Network Server.
    So basicaly I want to start from scratch and need some assistance how to get rid of OSX Server.
    Thanks
    Sahid

    Wipe the disk, and reinstall OS X.  (Not fun, of course.  I just created a bootable USB disk for this purpose, and nuked an errant server configuration.  A "target practice" server used for testing purposes had gone awry, and needed to be wholly reset.  So I know what you're going through.  Visit here or here for some instructions.)
    FWIW, usual trigger for problems with OS X Server on a NAT'd network is bad DNS.  That step gets skipped, or folks think they can refer to ISP or off-LAN DNS servers, and problems ensue.  OS X Server needs LAN-local DNS when NAT is in use.

  • How do you uninstall the ask toolbar?

    i ca not open new tabs on my firefox. the answer on i question i viewed on this says uninstall the ask tool bar.... how? x

    The Reset Firefox feature can fix many issues by restoring Firefox to its factory default state while saving your essential information.
    Note: ''This will cause you to lose any Extensions, Open websites, and some Preferences.''
    To Reset Firefox do the following:
    #Go to Firefox > Help > Troubleshooting Information.
    #Click the "Reset Firefox" button.
    #Firefox will close and reset. After Firefox is done, it will show a window with the information that is imported. Click Finish.
    #Firefox will open with all factory defaults applied.
    Further information can be found in the [[Reset Firefox – easily fix most problems]] article.
    Did this fix your problems? Please report back to us!

  • Mackeeper, how do you uninstall the mackeeper demo?

    I downloaded the demo mackeeper before realizing I didn't want it and now I can't find a way to get rid of it.  Help!! How can I uninstall it?
    Thanks!

    Remove the "MacKeeper" crapware as follows.
    Note: These instructions apply to the version of the product that I downloaded and tested in early 2012. I can't be sure that they apply to other versions, nor do I intend to repeat the test.
    IMPORTANT: "MacKeeper" has what the developer calls an “encryption” feature. In my tests, I didn't try to verify what this feature really does. If you used it to “encrypt” any of your files, “decrypt” them before you uninstall, or (preferably) restore the files from backups made before they were “encrypted.” As the developer is not trustworthy, you should assume that the "decrypted" files are corrupt unless proven otherwise.
    In the Finder, select Go ▹ Applications from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-A. The "MacKeeper" application is in the folder that opens. Drag it to the Trash. A dialog will pop up asking why you want to uninstall it. You don't have to provide that information. Enter anything you like in the text box, then click the Uninstallbutton. All the functional components of the software will be deleted. That's the only useful feature of "MacKeeper:" it deletes itself. Reboot.
    Do not try to uninstall by dragging the MacKeeper icon from the Dock to the Trash.
    Here are some general suggestions. If you want your computer to be usable, don't install crapware, such as “themes,” "haxies," “add-ons,” “toolbars,” “enhancers," “optimizers,” “accelerators,” “extenders,” “cleaners,” “defragmenters,” “firewalls,” "barriers," “guardians,” “defenders,” “protectors,” most “plugins,” commercial "virus scanners,” or "utilities." With very few exceptions, this kind of material is useless, or worse than useless.
    The more actively promoted the product, the more likely it is to be garbage. The most extreme example is the “MacKeeper” scam.
    The only software you should install is that which directly enables you to do the things you use a computer for — such as creating, communicating, and playing — and does not modify the way other software works. Never install any third-party software unless you know how to uninstall it.

  • How do you uninstall the Visual F# 3.1.2 tool?

    The Extensions and Updates screen says that is must be installed from Control Panel's Programs and Features. However there is no item there to accomplish this (at least not with a recognizable name).
    The same question applies to the other marginally useful extensions/tools, like Windows Phone 8.1 SDK Integration, Behaviors SDK, Microsoft ASP.NET, etc.
    I fail to understand why this bloatware is not uninstallable.

    Beyond wondering why you'd want to uninstall the best bit, have you tried downloading
    the standalone installer and seeing if that will offer a repair/uninstall choice?
    Otherwise you just have to tell yourself that disk space is cheap these days, and that at least you don't get frequent alerts announcing updates like you do for things like the various Win8/Win8Phone Advertising SDKs (even on Win7 where you can't actually
    use the things!).

    I am trying to download e-print (Print what you want) and I keep getting a message saying I must uninstall the current Bing Search Engine. Actually, I never downloaded Bing. It just appeared. Never use it. I went into programs to look for it so I could uninstall it but it is not listed, yet it shows up on my toolbar.  Help!!!!

    had this problem after accidentally downloaded the yahoo toolbar along with an adobe product. Firstly, tried to remove it control panel in add/remove programmes but it refused to uninstal. Since then was told by technicians of my ip to use Revo uninstaller the free ed. Next step was go to tools then options. On the general tab, at the bottom you will find manage-add-ons. under search provider do not want. f yahoo is still there disable it.
    Also go to internet options in control panel and set up there too. Be sure to find and tick the option that other search engines cannot change yours. Be sure to set the appropriate home page.
