How to Remove the Icon from the OWL Screen

Hi All,
Can we remove the Icon from the OWL screen for some fields without removing the Hyperlink as in the standard for Opportunity for Account Fields as shown below:
As in the above OWL screen, i have to remove the highlighted Icon.

Hi Malkit,
You can check Icon in Thing Type like COD_Account__TT screen.
Once you are in TT screen just go to "Controller" and select "Thing Type Data" from left side pan.
But how to remove it I don't have any idea.

How to remove QuickTime Icon from systray of Windows ME

Attempted to install QuickTime in response to its solicitation,but its download program stated it could not be installed on ME. However, its Icon was placed in my Systray and every time I boot up now the system seems to try to read the hard drive for it causing the drive to chatter. After about 10 of these chattering attempts from the drive, the Icon appears, but the program does not exist in the system.

How to remove an item from Launchpad

I am new to os X 10.7 and just tried the Lauchpd. I know you can hold an item down or press the Option key and all
icons will jiggle. Once the jiggle how do you remove the time? I did not see an X and could not drag an item to trash,.

You answerd my quesiton. Users cannot remove items from the Lauchpad. They can be shifted to the back but the only way to remove a non Apple Store item is to remove it from the computer.
I have decided to remove the Launchpad from the Dock and may never visit it again.
No follow up needed.

Removing Parallels Icons from Launchpad

Hi,
I had a trial version of Parallels desktop, i deleted the app, but the icons are still on the launchpad and can't remove as it won't let me as it says the application has been removed? Help.......

Seriously? No one knows this? Look at your launchpad, usually the first few pages are your real apps, from the apps folder I assume. Then I have a couple more pages of icons that are just folder-junk. They're not apps at all, and not launchable. What gives?

How do you remove an unwanted Steam icon from Launchpad?

I found an answer to this question online after some extensive searching. The answer isn't on the Support Forums, so I thought I'd post a link to the page (to credit the author) and copy / paste the wording below.
You don't have to download any dirty third party apps to do this...thanks to Joe!
FORCE REMOVING ICOMS FROM LAUNCHPAD
http://joegardiner.co.uk/removing-icons-from-launchpad/
The standard method for removing app icons from the Lion Launchpad is to hold the left mouse button [or old the Option / Alt key] over the app icon, wait for the cross to appear in the corner of the app icon, and then click it!
In some cases however app icons can become orphaned, for example if you use on Steam on Mac, deleting local content to uninstall a game will not remove the game icon from Launchpad. This leaves you with an unusable orphaned icon that seems invincible and does not appear in the Application folder along with the rest of your apps.
The solution is as follows…
1. Open Launchpad, find the offending icon(s) and drag them to your normal dock.
2. Right click on the icon that you dragged to your dock and choose ‘Show in Finder’.
3. Now drag the icon(s) from the Finder windows that opens up into the Trash.
4. Finally right click on the dock item(s) that you dragged originally and choose ‘Remove from dock’.
Voila, the icons have disappeared from Launchpad and the annoying orphaned icons that seemed invincible have been thwarted.

Maybe this is an issue I should consult my ISP about??
No question about that. If you can "see" Travis's device, then he can likely "see" your Time Capsule.
I'm just concerned that whomever the APExpress belongs to could be changing settings on my computer or Time Capsule that would cause the issues with me not being able to backup.
Make sure that you have a Time Capsule base station password. Unless a user has that password, they might be able to "see" your Time Capsule, but they cannot access any of the data on the Time Capsule or change the settings.
Open AirPort Utility, click on the Time Capsule and click Manual Setup
Then, click the Time Capsule tab below the icons to see the device name and password for your device. Make sure that you have entered the password and confirmed. Click Update if you have made any changes.
The message I get is "The backup was not performed because an error occurred while copying files to the backup disk. The problem may be temporary. Try again later to back up. If the problem persists, use Disk Utility to repair your backup disk."
I am not sure what this error means, because I cannot duplicate it here to test.
If it were me, I would try this "fix".

How do I remove the Adobe updater icon from the menu bar?

How can I remove the Adobe Updater icon from the menu bar? It's pixelated and looks broken. Any help is appreciated.
I found this thread, but it doesn't work. When I click on the Updater icon, then click "Open updater," it opens the Creative Cloud instead. I haven't found a way to remove the updater icon from within Creative cloud.

2. Click "Preferences" at the bottom right.
3. Uncheck the box labeled "Notify me of new updates on the menu bar." Then click "Ok."
Hope that helps anyone!
