How to uninstall my app or programm from mac

how can i uninstall app and program from the imac?

Most programs (Applications) can be dragged from your Applications folder to the trash, and that will effectively delete them, with the exception of some remnants that no longer have a part to play.
These applications are usually installed simply by dragging them from a disk image into the Applications folder.
The other kind of installation is where applications require some ancillary files to be written to deeper parts of the operating system, and these will usually come with an installer. Such an application that is well written will also come with an uninstaller, to remove all of the bits and pieces that were initially placed. For such applications you would use its uninstaller.
In summary, how you remove an application will mirror how you installed it to begin with.

    It will not go to the Mac App Store
    I have a MacBook Pro 2010 intel
    os mac mountain lion 10.8.6 however I do not have the original copy that was downloaded from the app store when I bought it.
    I NEED TO DO A CLEAN INSTALL TO GET MY APP STORE ICON BACK
    Please if anyone can help apple doesn't seem to care?

    If you need to reinstall Mac OS X 10.8.x (there is no 10.8.6 yet, by the way), restart your Mac, hold down the Option key so you see all the bootable partitons, and boot to the Recovery Partition. From there you can reinstall Mountain Lion. You will need a good Internet connection.

    You connect the iPad to the computer and use the Transfer Purchases function in iTunes to put them on the Mac's internal drive. They can't actually be run on a Mac.

    Hey there Matt.dvs1,
    Although there is not a way to remove past purchases from your iTunes account completely, you can hide them so that you don't have to see them if you don't want to. This article will help you do that:
    iTunes Store: Hiding and unhiding purchases - Apple Support
    Hide your purchases
    Open iTunes on your Mac or PC.
    From the Store menu, choose Store > Sign In, and then enter your Apple ID and password.
    Go to the iTunes Store.
    Click Purchased from the Quick Links section on the right side of the iTunes Store.
    Choose a content type by clicking Music, Movies, TV Shows, Apps, or Books from the top of the window.
    A list of your purchased items for the content type you are viewing will appear. Mouse over the item you want to hide until an X appears its top-left corner.
    A confirmation dialog will appear once you click the X.
    Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
    All the best,
    Sterling

  • How to move all or partial data from Mac to an external hard disk?

    Hei,
    I need to learn how to move the movies/projects/events from mac hard drive to another external hard drive.
    So basically, I have always imported all events from my video camera (the original clips) to iMovie located in my MacBook Pro hard drive. But after videoing for one year, the hard disc is starting to get full, and I cannot continue using only the laptop's hard drive.
    So I would like to move part OR all of my iMovie related stuff to another external disk drive (connected with USB wire). How do I do that? Is it possible to have some events located in Mac's own hard drive, and some clips/projects in the external hard disk? How to arrange all this?
    I know that "projects" are linked to the original event clips, so if I would be able to export some part of my iMovie data to the external hard drive, I should export both, for example, everything from the same year (the events) which is linked to the projects that are using those data.
    Any tips would be greatly appreciated.

    ok First with IM9, you can easily move stuff around. Here are some lessons learned from my experience managing projects across 6 different drives.
    1. All Drives must be formatted macos extended journaled
    2. The large terabyte drives are great for long term storage of events
    3. When you are working on a project, if possible, try to move the clips the current clips you will need to your internal hard drive. This is only necessary if you care about any time machine back ups.
    4. I have also worked on project straight from the external drives. I also use portable drives such as WD passports. These are small 500 gig drives that can travel with you. I have three of those. LOVE THEM.
    5. One way to move projects and clips and keep things organized is to move the project using command drag. It will ask, do you want to move just the project or project and clips. Then voila all clips and project are then moved to that drive!
    6. REMEMBER...MOVE WITHIN IMOVIE using COMMAND Drag. NEVER EVER USE THE FINDER. This is for both projects and events. Using the Command Key will ensure the projects are moved and not just copied!
    7. Last but not least, if you have changed the dates of events using change date function in imovie....For some reason, there is a bug. It inconsistently will change the date. Don't know why and have reported the issue, but it is still not fixed!
    But its still a great little app!

  • How do i copy The iMovie video from Mac, to iPad mini?

    How do i copy The iMovie video from Mac, to iPad mini?

    The easiest way is to firstly export the movie to iTunes (Share > iTunes), then sync the iPad Mini with iTunes. In iTunes, include your movie as an item to be synced. After syncing, on the iPad it will appear in the Videos app. That's how I do it for my wife's Mini.
    If you need help with exporting or with syncing to iTunes, please post back.
    I'm caught up with something else at the moment, otherwise I'd give you full instructions now (just wanted to get this to you quickly).

    Energy Saver, you can keep the computer awake while the screen saver shuts the monitor off but I'm not sure that would do it for you.

  • How can I transfer my DW licence from mac to PC?

    Hi! My name is Kico Cowan, and I have 2 Licences for Dreamweaver  CS3 and CS4 for Mac operating system, and I no longer have a mac Computer,
    So my Question is:
    How can I transfer my DW Licence from  Mac to a PC licence ?

    According to Adobe, you can only perform a "platform swap" on a current version of the program. Looks like you're stuck unless you upgrade to the subscription based version...
    Order product | Platform, language swap
    Since you own CS3 & CS4, you can get 40% off your first year's subscription rate:
