How to uninstall java 8 update 40 from my macbook air

Using MacBook Air Mid 2012, software OS X 10.10.2. Want to uninstall Java 8 Update 40 from my system
as it is causing some problems in reading some files. Could someone guide me how to do that as the Java
software does not show in Applications folder and I am unable to find any other way.

The feature is called Continuity.
And it requires an iPhone using the same Apple ID for Messages as the Mac, and that Text Message Forwarding be enabled in Messages settings on the iPhone.
If all is set correctly, try signing out and back in of Messages on both the iPhone, and the Mac.

How do I remove the "other" stuff from my macbook air memory?

I have a Macbook air with a 60 gb hard drive. My memory keeps filling up even though I keep erasing things off my computer. Deleted a bunch of music, bunch of pictures, etc. I don't have any videos on my hard drive nor software that takes up a lot of space. Every time I erase or transfer something to make more room on my hard drive, the extra space is suddenly taken by "other". Right now "other" is taking up 30 gigs of my hard drive. I understand there is system stuff included in this, but should it be taking up 30 gigs? How do I shrink it?

For information about the Other category in the Storage display, see this support article. If the Storage display seems to be inaccurate, try rebuilding the Spotlight index.
Empty the Trash if you haven't already done so. If you use iPhoto, empty its internal Trash first:
iPhoto ▹ Empty Trash
Do the same in other applications, such as Aperture, that have an internal Trash feature. Then restart the computer. That will temporarily free up some space.
According to Apple documentation, you need at least 9 GB of available space on the startup volume (as shown in the Finder Info window) for normal operation—not the mythical 10%, 15%, or any other percentage. You also need enough space left over to allow for growth of the data. There is little or no performance advantage to having more available space than the minimum Apple recommends. Available storage space that you'll never use is wasted space.
When Time Machine backs up a portable Mac, some of the free space will be used to make local snapshots, which are backup copies of recently deleted files. The space occupied by local snapshots is reported as available by the Finder, and should be considered as such. In the Storage display of System Information, local snapshots are shown as Backups. The snapshots are automatically deleted when they expire or when free space falls below a certain level. You ordinarily don't need to, and should not, delete local snapshots yourself. If you followed bad advice to disable local snapshots by running a shell command, you may have ended up with a lot of data in the Other category. Ask for instructions in that case.
See this support article for some simple ways to free up storage space.
You can more effectively use a tool such as OmniDiskSweeper (ODS) or GrandPerspective (GP) to explore the volume and find out what's taking up the space. You can also delete files with it, but don't do that unless you're sure that you know what you're deleting and that all data is safely backed up. That means you have multiple backups, not just one. Note that ODS only works with OS X 10.8 or later. If you're running an older OS version, use GP.
Deleting files inside a photo or iTunes library will corrupt the library. Changes to such a library must be made from within the application that created it. The same goes for Mail files.
Proceed further only if the problem isn't solved by the above steps.
ODS or GP can't see the whole filesystem when you run it just by double-clicking; it only sees files that you have permission to read. To see everything, you have to run it as root.
Back up all data now.
If you have more than one user account, make sure you're logged in as an administrator. The administrator account is the one that was created automatically when you first set up the computer.
Install the app you downloaded in the Applications folder as usual. Quit it if it's running.
Triple-click anywhere in the corresponding line of text below on this page to select it, then copy the selected text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination command-C:
sudo /Applications/OmniDiskSweeper.app/Contents/MacOS/OmniDiskSweeper
sudo /Applications/GrandPerspective.app/Contents/MacOS/GrandPerspective
Launch the built-in Terminal application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad and start typing the name.
Paste into the Terminal window by pressing command-V. You'll be prompted for your login password, which won't be displayed when you type it. Type carefully and then press return. You may get a one-time warning to be careful. If you see a message that your username "is not in the sudoers file," then you're not logged in as an administrator. Ignore any other messages that appear in the Terminal window.
The application window will open, eventually showing all files in all folders, sorted by size. It may take a few minutes for the app to finish scanning.
I don't recommend that you make a habit of doing this. Don't delete anything as root. If something needs to be deleted, make sure you know what it is and how it got there, and then delete it by other, safer, means. When in doubt, leave it alone or ask for guidance.
When you're done with the app, quit it and also quit Terminal.

How can i cancel the cooling from my MacBook Air?

How can i cancel the cooling system from my MacBook Air? It is running full speed by the start ervery time, also when the MacBook Air is cold.

Open Activity Monitor in the Utilities folder. Select All Processes from the Processes dropdown menu. Click twice on the CPU% column header to display in descending order. If you find a process using a large amount of CPU time, then select the process and click on the Quit icon in the toolbar. Click on the Force Quit button to kill the process. See if that helps. Be sure to note the name of the runaway process so you can track down the cause of the problem.

How to uninstall java plugin without removing JRE completely

how to uninstall java plugin without removing JRE completely.
Hope someonce can help, all the documentation ive seen till now shows how to uninstall the Java plugin by completely removing the JRE.
Also if you install JRE 1.4.1_01 and do not choose to install the browser plugin on the browers prompted ... does it not install the plugin?

In IE
Tools -> Internet Options -> Settings -> View Objects
Delete the ActiveX control for the Java Plugin
This removes the ActiveX control (plug-in) from the browser but doesn't delete the JRE.

How to uninstall Java runtime 1.5 completely and then install Java 1.4...

Dear Friends,
I have a software running with Java runtime 1.4. When the new version of Java (1.5) became available, I installed it. And then the software I am using becomes useless since it doesn't work with the new Java 1.5. I uninstalled java 1.5 and then reinstalled Java 1.4. But it doesn't work. I'll be very glad if someone can help me uninstalling Java 1.5 completely from my computer.

I have a similar problem under Windows XP. When I go to "Control Panel" and try to remove that Java installation, clicking on the "Change/Remove" button has no effect whatsoever: the program name simply dims for a moment, and then reappears with no evident change. Is there not a separate routine available to effect a removal, so the program may be reinstalled?

How do I upgrade/update my iPhone 5 from my MacBook Air with limited space/storage

Hi There!
I am desperately trying to update my iPhone from my MacBook Air. But before I do so, I am trying to back up my iPhone. Every time I connect my iPhone to my laptop and hit 'manually back up', it stops with the following message:
"iTunes could not back up the iPhone because not enough free space is available on this computer."
I have a 60G laptop. I have deleted everything I had stored on this laptop (which was not much to begin with).
I then tried checking out my MacBook Air usage/storage by clicking Launchpad and going into 'System Information' then clicking on storage. It then showed me the following:
Volume Name: Macintosh HD
Capacity: 59.81GB
Available: 1.55GB
What i'm struggling to understand is what is taking up so much room/storage on my laptop? I barely use it and I save practically everything onto my hard drive.
Can anyone shed some light?
Kind Regards,
TeeStrang

Try a few things: 1) restart in safe mode (restart holding the shift key) and this will repair the drive (if need be) and trim/delete cache files. Restart normally.
2) if you use iPhoto or Aperture launch the program and then empty the trash folder of the program(s). Launch your Mail program and check out how much is in the Trash and Archive folders. You can delete the really old stuff if there is any.
3) Download omniDiskSweeper (free) to see what's on your drive. Be careful about deleting anything that isn't in your personal drive space and be very careful about deleting anything in the Library folder.

KILLING ADOBE PHOTO DOWNLOADER AND TRAY ICON.
Easy ! I use Comodo Pro Firewall.
1) Click on DEFENSE box.
2) Click on "View Active Process List"
3) Look down the list of processes. Find APDPROXY.EXE.
4) Click it, then click "Terminate and Quarantine"
5) ALL DONE ! No more icon in tray and the program is killed.
APDPROXY - This is lurking about, you can find it on SEARCH from the START button. BUT, you cannot delete it or move it and MSCONFIG does not work. You can disable it as many times as you like - it will keep coming back.
SOLUTION ! Download CCleaner, it is a great little program and free.
Using this you can click on TOOLS, then STARTUP. A list of programs are shown which are enabled at STARTUP. Disabling does not work, just click on APDPROXY and click DELETE. It`s GONE !
All over in a flash - no more ADOBE PHOTO DOWNLOADER.
