How to delete internet downloaded device/driver on mac?

Hi !
I am a new macbook air user and currently really confused about this problem. So when I download some programs in the internet, the programs could be found in All My Files below the DEVICES tab. When I want to erase the program I tried to moved all the programs files to the trash, but it said 'the file cannot be moved to trash because it cannot be deleted'. And when I go through the Disk Utility I found the program as driver, i tried to use erase free space as to delete all the files of the program but it says the erase free space not available on this type of driver. So my question is how to completely delete and remove all the files of the program from the device tab ? Once i click on the eject button (that arrow shape round button) beside it but Im not sure if its completely deleted from the mac. Thank you for the time! All replies are much appreciated.

Control of right click then click Remove from Sidebar.

    Unfortunately, this doesn't work. If you let them download and delete them, they just download again at some point in the future. I've been trying to figure this one out myself, but so far, every time I remove something, it comes back "later".

    If they have not finished downloading yet, you can either let them finish and the right click on the file and select delete or contact Apple support to have them remove the file from your download queue. I've contacted them in the past to have this done and they have no problem doing this. Contact Apple by clicking on support at the top of the forum and then clicking on contact us on the page that opens.

  • How do i reformat my hard drive on mac mini late 2011 with yosemite before selling my mac

    how do i reformat my hard drive on mac mini late 2011 with yosemite before selling my mac

    You can't legally sell or give away that computer with Yosemite installed.
    Before you sell or give away your computer, in addition to the steps listed in this support article, take these steps:
    1. Run Apple Diagnostics or the Apple Hardware Test. The buyer will do this (or he should), and you don't want to be surprised by the results.
    2. Reset the PRAM and the SMC, which might contain personal information.
    3. If you set a firmware password, remove it by running Firmware Password Utility in Recovery mode.
    4. If you activated FileVault in OS X 10.7 or later, turn it off.
    5. If you use Boot Camp, the partition must be deleted.
    6. If you created any other data partitions on the internal drive, remove them in Disk Utility.
    7. If the machine has an internal hard drive, erase the one remaining data partition with the option to zero out data. An SSD doesn't need to be zeroed.
    You can't legally or practically transfer any software downloaded from the Mac App Store to the new owner of the machine, even if it was free. That includes OS X, so if you upgraded to OS X 10.7 or later, you must reinstall an older OS, either from the installation media, if applicable, or by starting up in Internet Recovery mode (option-command-R at the startup chime.) If you installed from physical media, deliver those to the new owner.
    If you're selling the machine, or donating it in working order, and it originally shipped with OS X 10.4 or 10.5, then you have the option of installing either from the discs that came with it or from a retail Snow Leopard disc (which you must then transfer to the buyer.) The buyer should understand that if he doesn't get the original discs from you, he won't get the bundled iLife applications or the Apple Hardware Test. Replacements for the original discs can be ordered from Apple.
    The new owner will have to redownload any software that came from the App Store, including OS X upgrades, under his or her Apple ID. If you ever updated the bundled iLife applications (Garage Band, iMovie, and iPhoto) through the App Store, you can't transfer those either. The buyer will have to purchase them.
    Remove the machine from your list of registered products. If it's still covered by an AppleCare Protection Plan, transfer the coverage to the new owner by following the instructions in the AppleCare Terms and Conditions (under the heading "Transfer of Plan.")

    I don't believe it's available from Apple High St stores any more. Some independents may still have a copy or two.

    How do I detach a device from my mac laptop?

    Since there is no disk mode for the iPod touch like older iPod models used to have, just pull the USB plug or click on the eject button next to your iPod in the device list in iTunes.
    Before you disconnect, make sure there is no sync process started or still going on.

  • Windows: how do I update the device driver for my video/display adapter?

    Installed video drivers may not always support the functionality of the latest Flash Player.  If Flash Player does not function correctly, updating the video drivers to the latest available version is one of the first steps to try.  Below are instructions how to update the video drivers on Windows systems.
    identify the manufacturer and type of your video card
    open Device Manager: Start | Run | enter devmgmt.msc
    open the Display Adapters drop-down; this will show you the installed video card:
    identify the device driver version
    right-click on your display adapter entry and select Properties
    click on the Driver tab; this will show you the driver version and date:
    go to the device manufacturer's support site and download the latest driver
    NVIDIA cards: NVIDIA driver download page, or auto-detect
    ATI cards: ATI driver download page, or auto-detect
    Intel cards: Intel driver download page, or auto-detect
    Matrox cards: Matrox driver download page
    VIA cards: VIA Arena driver download page (redirects to 3rd-party download site)
    SiS cards: SiS driver download page, or auto-detect
    S3 cards: S3 driver download page, or auto-detect (option 2 on the download page)
    follow the instructions on the manufacturer's support site
    Note: some of the auto-detect utilities linked above will only run on Internet Explorer.

  • How to install the pseduo device driver?

    I downloaded one package to produce high resolution delay ( similar to sleep() ).
    Here is the comment text in main file:
    Written by Jon Zeeff umix!b-tech!zeeff
    This "device driver" uses the kernel delay() call to allow calls
    to nap() from user processes. Nap() is like sleep, but with finer
    resolution.
    Compile with cc -O -c ft.c
    Written for a Sys V.3 system, but should work on others.
    For Sys V.3:
    Make a new kernel according to the instructions and then:
    mknod /dev/ft c 28 0
    modules/ft/config:
    character(28)
    prefix = ft
    functions = open, close, read
    Edit systems/system.std and add ft.
    Copy ft.o to modules/ft/config
    But, where is " modules " directory ? and where is system/system.std ??
    thanks.

  • How to delete a static device from "my network on Verizon MI424-WR?

    Can anyone tell me how to delete a device from the "My Network" panel that connected using a static address and not DHCP? I have the Verizon MI424-WR (rev E).

    I had to do some digging, but I believe I found it.
    Log into your router. Go to Advanced, and click Yes to proceed. In the right, bottom section, click on IP Address Distribution. From that page, click the Connection List (middle) button.
    This brings you to the list of connections, and the far-right column has a button to remove entries.

  • How to delete a registered jdbc driver

    I configured a third party jdbc driver but it's wrong. I tried to remove it but I can't find any way to do so. can any body tell me how to remove a defined jdbc driver(not remove a connection.) thanks.

    Registered third-party JDBC drivers can be deleted or edited by opening the 'Preferences' dialog (select the 'Preferences' menu item from the 'Tools' menu) and selecting the 'Database Connections' item on the left-hand tree. The resulting panel has a list of the registered drivers; select the one you wish to delete and click the 'Delete' button.
