(1) Download the Windows Installer CleanUp utility installer file (msicuu2.exe) from the following Major Geeks page (use one of the links under the "DOWNLOAD LOCATIONS" thingy on the Major Geeks page):
http://majorgeeks.com/download.php?det=4459
(2) Doubleclick the msicuu2.exe file and follow the prompts to install the Windows Installer CleanUp utility. (If you're on a Windows Vista or Windows 7 system and you get a Code 800A0046 error message when doubleclicking the msicuu2.exe file, try instead right-clicking on the msicuu2.exe file and selecting "Run as administrator".)
(3) In your Start menu click All Programs and then click Windows Install Clean Up. The Windows Installer CleanUp utility window appears, listing software that is currently installed on your computer.
(4) In the list of programs that appears in CleanUp, select any iTunes entries and click "Remove", as per the following screenshot:
(5) Quit out of CleanUp, restart the PC and try another iTunes install. Does it go through properly this time?

yellow_lamp
what i meant to say, if i didn't say it clear enough, was how do i get rid of old documents and emails that are not currently in my document folder or in my email inbox.

Select the email/s you want to get rid of and then select delete. When all the emails are deleted, select your Trash mailbox, select all the emails and then select delete.
Documents you can drag to the trash (lower right side of Dock). Then empty the trash.
Then stop down to your local bookstore and get some books on Mac OS X.

How to get rid of old folders from Network window?

I'm not sure if this is a network question or a Finder question ...
In my Network window are a bunch of old folders, left over from a couple of MS Windows machines that I touched at some point but will never meet again. I can't delete them. Their permissions are set to read-only. I tried to give myself delete permissions with chmod but was told it was a read-only file system. So how do I get rid of these old items?
Thanks for the help.

I have more information which my be helpful. I think the directories which are created in /Network are in part originated from a list of previous workgroups.
Open Directory Access, authenticate, then select SMB/CIFS and click Configure... . The top menu displays a list of workgroups. What I seem to get is a list of all the workgroups I've ever been connected to and this list largely corresponds with the directories created in /Network. Sadly, you can't delete these workgroups from Directory Access.
More intriguingly, the directories go away when I'm not connected to a network so somewhere in the system there is a list of workgroups stored away. The only problem is where? I heven't been able to determine this yet.
Also, I think workgroups and domains may be interchangeable here.

How to get rid of extra iTunes credit?

Okay, I know HOW to change the iTunes Store's countries, but I have an issue with my remaining store credit. I have £0.21 left to spend, and I cannot change the store to the US until I spend it. Is there any way to simply get rid of the extra credit?

String's .trim method will probably be useful here:
String path = System.getProperty("propDir").trim();

Also of what value is the java deployment tool kit.

(1) You should be able to uncover the location of the other plugin from the '''about:plugins''' page (type or page about:plugins into the address bar and press Enter).
(2) If it ''doesn't'' show there for some reason, on 32-bit Windows, Firefox generally finds the Flash Player plugin using registry entries that point into the Windows folder:
C:\Windows\System32\Macromed\Flash
The plugin files have the name following the pattern npswf...dll and the most recent should have a name similar to NPSWF32_11_9_900_152.dll. Can you find the old one there and delete it?
(3) If the obsolete DLL file is not located there, either, it may have been dropped into the Firefox program folder. On 32-bit Windows, you could check for it here:
C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\Plugins
C:\Program Files\Mozilla Firefox\browser\plugins
(4) Still not found? In that case, you might need to look into the Windows registry for the information.

Erasing the iPhone is the solution; there are at least two ways to do that, though.
The second one is, go to icloud.com and login with your Apple ID and password. Go to "Find My iPhone" and click "Devices." From there you'll be able to erase the iPhone. All the magic will happen as soon as the iPhone has internet access.

How to get rid of old system preferences??

I recently upgraded (using Migration Assistant) from a PPC G5 to a new Mac Pro. I still have the APC "PowerChute" system preference, even though I don't have the PowerChute software (or at least I have nothing with that file name). PowerChute doesn't work on Intel machines, and it's my understanding that all of that functionality is handled by Energy Saver in Snow Leopard.
So how do I get rid of the PowerChute icon in my system preferences??
Tks!

I assume it's in the bottom line, labelled 'Other" - control-click on it to remove it.

How to get rid of an iTunes U course?

Once you download a course, there is no option to delete it even if you're unsubscribed. How do you delete those. As you can see there, I want to get rid of
national geographic playlist.

Hello,
I hope it's okay to respond to this link. I tried searching on the forum, but could not find answers that would solve my problem.
I have the iPad Air ( no iCloud set up) and downloaded courses from iTunesU. I tried to delete two of the courses but both courses just keep "reappearing". Also, went to Settings > General > and clicked "off" on Updates. This didn't help.
I set up wireless, I do not want to sync to my MacBook Pro.
Any help would be appreciated.
Thank you.

How to get rid of cloud itunes and get back my real complete library

When I tried to watch something today on my apple TV it said that there was no itunes library selected. Restarted the computer and it wanted me to choose an itunes library. when I tried to choose the usual one it said that was not a library, so I should choose a new one. It offered the name of itunes1, so I selected that. Had no idea that it was the icloud itunes. Now we only have access to things purchasd from the itunes store and that will download from the cloud. How can I get my real, complete itunes library back?

I can't really understand what you're saying, but it seems like iTunes is looking for this file:
Just point iTunes to that file.

How to get rid of the iTunes V5 and revert to V4.9

A mass of postings has been prompted by the launch of the appalling iTunes Version 5. This has clearly not been beta tested (or the testers need sacking), and must have caused immense damage to Apples reputation. How they can sit there like a rabbit in the headlights, and not even revoke the launch of V5 until theyve sorted it, is quite beyond me.
Most postings are desperate pleas for help, followed by suggested courses of action to persuade V5 to work. Some of these are quite complex for the average user and, whilst they have been a salvation for many readers, appear not to have worked for others. If, like me, you think that enough is enough, and just want to get back to V4.9, then here is my suggestion.
V4.9 is still currently available, but the installer refuses to run if youve installed V5, because it tells you that A later version of iTunes is already on this machine. Installation cannot continue. Attempts to uninstall V5 via Windows Add or Remove Programs appear to have got some users into serious difficulties, and I certainly wasnt prepared to attempt it, so here is what worked for me. Please bear in mind that it only works if you Saved, the V5 Installer, rather than just running it without saving. Bear in mind also that you will have to recreate any custom Play Lists, and that the Purchased Music record will be empty (the music wilI still be there though, which is all that matters.
I offer no promises that this will work for you.
First I played safe by backing up on DVD my iTunes folder from My Music although, with hindsight, I didnt need to. If you want to be safe, but cant burn a DVD, then just open a new file in My Music called iTunes Backup, and copy everything to there.
Then I did Start/Search for iTunesSetup. If you find more than one, then go for the one whose date coincides with the day you were lured into doing the upgrade. That event should be scarred on your memory.
I double clicked on the offending installer, and encountered a request to know whether I wanted it to Repair or Uninstall. I chose Uninstall, and it worked. I then dealt it the final deathblow, by deleting that actual iTunesSetup program.
I then went to www.techspot.com and typed iTunes into the Search box at top right of the Home Page. This will take you to a page offering Apple iTunes 4.9 for Windows Download. Click on that, and proceed with the download, using the Save option, before running it.
I was then able to run the new Installer, and iTunes was up and running, but of course, my Music Library was empty.
Leaving the iTunes main screen open, I went into My Music / iTunes and opened the iTunes Music folder to reveal the various Artist folders. I then reduced the size of that window, so that I could get at the iTunes window behind it.
In the iTunes Music window (the one with all the Artist folders now displayed) I did Select All, from the Edit drop-down menu, and then did a simple drag and drop into the large right-hand iTunes window. Note: there is no need to open the individual Artists folders. iTunes will see to that.
Seconds later I was playing my music, and actually went into the Music Store, and bought some more (not that Apple deserve my custom).
I shall not be upgrading again, until I have seen plenty of approval notices in the media.
Good luck if you want to try it.

Paul--you are a life-saver!! Worked great. I did have to look around to make sure I was getting 4.9 instead of 4.7 (even when the file was named 4.9 at techspot.com), but I finally got the right file, did the install as you suggested, and everything is now fine. One note, though, that I haven't seen mentioned in any of this thread: when I first tried to open up iTunes after getting back to 4.9, the following message appeared: "The file iTunes Library.itl cannot be read because it was created by a newer version of iTunes." I merely went to the old .itl file that was created when I did the update to iTunes 5, renamed it, moved it over to my now new 4.9, and iTunes opened fine. My library was a few days out of date, because of the few days' lag from the time I did the iTunes update, but that was easily taken care of, and everything's now working fine. Thanks again!!!
