How to remove an uninstalled app from launch pad

I just got mac os x yosemite and I uninstall a steam app but the icon from the game is still in launch pad I did uninstall steam trying to get rid of it. Please help!!!

Open the Applications folder - click the Applications folder icon in the Dock, then select the Open in Finder arrowbutton.
Examine the contents of that folder.
Pages normally resides in the folder named iWorks, but in LaunchPad it is not displayed that way.
If Pages has been duplicated, or an alias made for it, outside of the iWork folder, it will appear as a second instance of Pages in LaunchPad.
Remove the duplicate, meaning the one outside of the iWork folder.
Note -
• if the one outside the iWork folder is not an alias, compare the version numbers for it and the one in the iWork folder. Keep the one with the most recent version, be sure it is placed in the iWork folder.
• if the one in the iWork folder is an alias, replace it with the real app, the one outside that folder.

Removing apps from launch pad

Does anyone know how to remove an App from the launch pad that isn't downloaded directly from the apple store such as products from Microsoft office? I know that with app's downloaded directly from the App store all you have to do is press Option+ X. However with programs such a outlooks from Microsoft office 2011 which i don't want in the launch pad the X does not show up.

Open Terminal and type:
sqlite3 ~/Library/Application\ Support/Dock/*.db "DELETE from apps; \
DELETE from groups WHERE title<>''; DELETE from items WHERE rowid>2;" \
&& killall Dock
Then, open Applications and drag to Launchpad icon all the icons except the ones you don't want to appear

Deleting app from launch pad on macbook pro

I have tried to delete the Virtual Friend Finder from the launch pad!! I have tried dragging it to the trash and then clicking and holding icon till it shook and got the x in the corner to delete and nothing!! It always ask do I want to delete I say yes and yet it still stays on launch pad I want to get rid of it though anymore ideas!!!

Launch pad?
Find the actual original file that the alias points to.
If you click and hold on the icon there is a pop up (drop down) list of Options.
If you have trouble with uninstalling whatever the app is, either look to see if the installer will, or just drag to trash.
Most applications are in /Applications folder.
you are not in notebook territory though.
And you do want to brush up on how to use Mac OS probably.
Uninstalling apps from iPhone, iPad and iPod Touch are of course different.

In my MacBook Pro old 2006 late model Lion 10.7.4 how achieve right click from touch pad

In my MacBook Pro old 2006 late model Lion 10.7.4 how achieve right click from touch pad?

The multigesture buttonless trackpad was introduced with the Unibody Macs that came out in Late 2008. Successive models have built upon that, adding 2, 3 and more fingers to the gestures.
Older models don't have the trackpad hardware needed to detect those motions and, hence, cannot support multigestures. Only resort is using combination of keys with the button, as disguise suggests.

How to prevent apps from syncing in the new version of itunes?

Hey there.
I brang my macbook to Applestore cause it had a problem and they downloaded the latest version of itunes. Everything's fine and my music, videos and apps are in the new itunes like before. But now, when I want to sync my iphone, a pop window asks me to give the password of the itunes account I used to download some of my apps or it will delete them and their data. The problem is that one of these accounts is an old friend's one and I actually lost all contact with him. So basically now I can't sync my iphone at all or it will delete all my apps.
Has anyone any idea how to sort that out? Or at least knows how to prevent apps from syncing in this new version of itunes?
Thanks for your help
