How to delete unwanted items in launchpad

I can't stand using Google Chrome on a mac but is my favorite browser otherwise. I had to install it for a few mins. to download something off of a specific website the other day.
I then uninstalled Chrome and now I have these other icons still in the launchpad and hopefully not still on my computer. When I click them they just get some window that pops up saying it can't open.
How do I remove these unwanted icons that google chrome put in my launchpad? If I click and hold until the "jiggle" no "x" comes up. If I try to drag to trash it doesn't delete. If I search in spotlight and drag to trash it does nothing.
Is there a free app to help delete these icons? Ever since I've started trying Mac i've been getting these annoyning little issues like this.
How long can this go on for lol.
Thanks for any help.

  • How to delete all items in the HUB ?

    How to delete all items on shot in the HUB ?

    Hi all,pay attention to the words I've marked in bold in the first answer from the technical support member:  "From the BlackBerry Hub, hold your finger on the date at the top of the list. A side menu will appear. Click on the Garbage Can to delete all messages prior to that date" At first, I also didn't understand how to make it works, but you have to slide until the date is at the top of displayed messages, then you can tap and hold to select all messages preceding that date.

  • HT1349 how to delete multiple items in itunes

    how to delete multiple items in itunes

    I inported my music files and see that I have multiple copies on my files so now I have multiple copies in iTunes.
    Some are multiples, some are duplicates, some are from different dates and some do not work and have the symbol for this.
    Thus, I must be picky about which ones I delete.
    Looks like I will have to continue deleting manually.

  • How to delete unwanted timezones from Calendar app on Yosemite?

    I upgraded to Yosemite and one of the problems I had with Calendar App had something to do with Time Zone.
    I realized that Calendar added California time as default. So now I want to delete the unwanted time zone, but cannot find a way to do so.
    How does one remove or uncheck a time zone in iCal (Mountain Lion)?
    I found this forum and tried, but as the last person who posted said, it doesn't work on Yosemite.
    Does anyone know to delete unwanted timezones from Calendar App on Yosemite?
    Thanks.

    Thank you for your response.
    However, I am not asking about how to change the timezone on Mac. I'm asking about how to delete unwanted timezones on Calendar app.
    Here I have 2 Pacific Time's. They are basically the same, but sometimes my computer choses one of the other without my intention. And when it does, it keeps showing (PST) on next to the starting time which I do not want. In order to avoid that, I'd like to delete "Pacific Time (America/Los_Angeles)". From the link you provided, I'm not finding the solution to this. I might be looking at a wrong spot and if so please be patient to guide me through.
    If my question still doesn't make sense, please click the link to the solution for the same problem on Mountain Lion in my original question. You might understand my question better from it.
    Thank you.

    On a 5230 highlight the route you wish to delete, then hit the search bar. The keypad appears, then just press the backward pointing small white arrow on the far right hand side of the screen about half way down and it will then say "Delete selected route?"

    how to delete unwanted apps from itunes cant figure it out

    What do you mean delete from iTunes? You can't do that on an iPad. You can delete apps in iTunes on a computer. If you want to delete an app on the iPad, tap and hold down on the icon until the icon wiggles, then tap the  X appears on the icon to delete the app. Tap the home button when finished.
    You really need to explain in more detail what you wNt to do. Maybe this will help.

  • How to delete work items

    Hi,
    I'm using XI 3.0 and am trying to delete some Work Items that are sitting in Error status.
    I've tried following OSS note 807906 but cannot see the menu items mentioned (specifically the Edit=>Change option) - can someone explain more clearly how to delete them?
    Thx
    Here is summary of OSS Note:
    "First make sure that the process is actually 'irretrieveably lost', that is, that it has not simply encountered a temporary error (for example, the failure of synchronous sending and so on).
    If you are certain that the process is no longer required, call the log of the affected process (using the process selection (SWF_XI_SWI1)) or the SXMB_MONI, ... and display the work item of the process (Workflows).
    Go to the technical work-item display (if this is not displayed by default) and then select Edit => Change there.
    Under 'Services for Administration', select the 'Logical Deletion' function.
    This function is used to set the process to the 'Logically Deleted' status and to delete all outstanding correlations. The process has then reached its final status and can also be archived"

  • How to delete all items in download folder under bookmark in the shortest time?

    I understand that all downloads from internet and yahoo/google mail are stored in the "Download" folder which I see under bookmark when I want to delete. I think that if the download folder is never emptied, then my mac will slow down. Therefore I want to delete these downloads which I have already seen. How do I delete ALL items in the shortest time? Deleting items, even in groups, takes a long time. Is there a method that I can use so that all items in the folder are deleted in one stroke?
    Thanks.
