How to uninstall Xcode 4.3.3?

The reason why is because I mean't to download it under another Apple id. I've tried the sudo command and all it says "command not found".

I followed your advice. Now it's icon no longer existing on Launchpad and Applications. I am using Mac Mini 2011 product. I'm afraid not everything associated with it is deleted. But thanks anyways.

If you just drag
/Library/Developer to the trash, X-code will be gone.
It is not active unless you invoke its commands.

Does any one know how to uninstall xcode 4.4 on OSX 10.7?

Because of openframeworks, I want to swich back to xcode 4.2 not the xcode 4.4 after I accidentally upgraded it.
I tried the /Developer/Library/uninstall-devtools or deleting the xcode.app from the application folder,
none of it works,
everytime I tried to install xcode 4.2 I get the "a newer version is installed on this machine" message.
Does anyone know how to deal with this,
either fully deleting xcode 4.4 and enabling the install of xcode 4.2,
or install xcode 4.2 in a separate folder beside xcode 4.4?
Thanks in advance!!!!

As I mentioned, already tried that.
Empty trash, yes.
Restart after empty trash, yes.
Still get the "a newer version ..." response.

How to Uninstall xcode Tools?

I installed Gimp, and was looking for X11, and assumed it was in the xcode tools package on the Apple OSX install disc.
So I installed the xcode tools, and got the 'successfully installed' notice. But then found out X11 is not in xcode tools!
Eventually I did find and install X11, and Gimp runs fine.
So now I want to uninstall the xcode tools cleanly.
I won't be using them.
I read the instructions in the About xcode tools pdf, and tried the command in Terminal with this result:
apples-mac-mini:~ colin$ % sudo perl/Developer/Tools/uninstall-devtools.pl
-bash: fg: %: no such job
apples-mac-mini:~ colin$ % sudo perl /Developer/Tools/uninstall-devtools.pl
-bash: fg: %: no such job
apples-mac-mini:~ colin$
How do I get rid of the xcode tools cleanly?

Thanks JJ2: That got rid of 3GB of unwanted Developer Tools nicely!
It would be helpful to others if the 'About Dev Tools pdf'
clearly said that to run the command in terminal you should log out as user, and log back in as Apple (admin) before using terminal.
In addition, the text of the pdf has a percentage symbol at the start of the command line, which appears to be a typo, or plain wrong.
To prevent this happening to others; when referencing X11.app, it should be stated exactly how to find it on the DVD. People logically expect it to be in the xcode tools folder.
I eventually found it by inserting the Apple DVD, then typing X11.app into Spotlight.
Carlo: Have you got rid of your xcode tools yet?
If not, do this:
Log out as User (Carlo) and log back in as apple (admin)
Finder>Go>Utilities>Terminal.app
In the small black terminal screen type at the cursor:
sudo /Developer/Tools/uninstall-devtools.pl
and press enter
Give your Apple (admin) password (NB: You don't see the pw as you type), press enter, and that should cause the tools to be removed. It takes about a minute for the script to do the job, so wait for it to confirm.
Enough geekery!
We just want to use the thing.

How do I completely uninstall Xcode and Developer Tools?

**Sorry if this isn't the place to ask this, but I really didn't find a section dedicated to this, so I'm asking it here.**
I installed Xcode and the Mac developer tools from Apple's developer site page and I'm not going to use it (for the time being anyway). I dragged and dropped all of the files from the download into the trash and emptied it. Then, I went to Terminal, and typed in the following:
sudo /Developer/Library/uninstall-devtools –mode=all
It gave me a prompt to enter my password before continuing, entered my password, and then that was it! Question is, though, is this really it? Did I really get rid of Xcode and all of the developer stuff that came in the Mac Developer Tools download?

The only thing that I could find in utilities that started with "X" was something called "X11". Also, I had Xcode 3.1.2 installed, and at first I tried typing this command in Terminal:
$ sudo <Xcode>/Library/uninstall-devtools --mode=all
I got this from the "About Xcode 3.1.2" document from Apple's developer site, but it wouldn't work. Then I tried the code that I posted in my first post, and I guess it worked. I actually entered the code
sudo /Developer/Library/uninstall-devtools –mode=all
a few times (for closure) and the same thing happened every time: password to continue and, that's it! So I guess it worked. I actually got that code from a blog after googling "how to uninstall xcode 3.1.2 and developer tools"!

How do you uninstall Xcode 4.2.1 completely?

Uninstall Xcode - what script ?

hello
as u may have understood from my previous post, i mistakenly installed xcode instead of x11 from Tiger DVD.
now i do not know how to uninstall xcode. i undrestand that i have to type a script in terminal, but i am not sure about the correct script to use.
i am not sure about the 2 following options:
1 - the pdf file in developer's folder says the following:
QUOTE
* Uninstalling Xcode Tools *
To uninstall Xcode Tools on your system, type in a Terminal window:
$ sudo perl /Developer/Tools/uninstall-devtools.pl
To uninstall from the CD or disk image that contains Xcode Tools, type in a Terminal window:
$ sudo perl /Volumes/Xcode\ Tools/Utilities/uninstall-devtools.pl
NOTE: The uninstaller that ships with previous versions of Xcode Tools or the Developer Tools will not clean everything off of your system properly. You should either use the one on the Xcode Tools 2.2.1 DVD, or you should use
the one installed when you installed Xcode Tools 2.2.1.
NOTE: Running the uninstall script from Xcode Tools will uninstall any previous installations of Mac OS X Developer
Tools or Xcode Tools releases.
NOTE: After running the uninstall script, you should restart your system before installing the Xcode Tools again.
UNQUOTE
2 - follow the instructions contained in developer>tools>unsinstall-devtools.pl
it is a huge text file, and info there are really arabic to me...
i can quote the whole thing if needed, but it is very long so i will do that only if you want me to
so what should i do?
should i type: $ sudo perl /Developer/Tools/uninstall-devtools.pl
does it do all the job?
sorry, i guess it is a very stupid question but i know nothing about scripts..
thank you very much
Macbook Pro Mac OS X (10.4.6)

sorry guys
after a bit of search in this forum i found the answer to my question...
thank you anyway
ciao!

Uninstall Xcode 5.0.1 from mavericks

please I'd like to know how to uninstall Xcode 5.0.1 from mavericks and only keep the Command Line Developer Tools. Thanks

PS. It turns out that the command line shims point to Xcode if Xcode is installed, or point to /Library/Developer/CommandLineTools if it is not.
So, my questions are:
(1) Is there any file which belongs Xcode and it's not under /Applications/Xcode.app ? If not, I just need to trash the app.
(2) If one only uses command line tools, is there any advantage to keep Xcode installed?
Thanks again for all the help.

How to uninstall "Command Line Tools" in Xcode 4.3?

Just installed Command Line Tools using the perference in Xcode 4.3. After removing Xcode 4.3, I found the Command Line Tools are not removed.
Is there any way to uninstall?
Thanks!

Check the 'About Xcode' readme:
Uninstalling Xcode Developer Tools
To uninstall Xcode developer tools on the boot volume along with the <Xcode> directory, from a Terminal window type:
$ sudo <Xcode>/Library/uninstall-devtools --mode=all
To remove the underlying developer content on the boot volume, but leave the <Xcode> directory and supporting files untouched, from a Terminal window type:
$ sudo <Xcode>/Library/uninstall-devtools --mode=systemsupport
To just remove the UNIX development support on the boot volume, but leave the <Xcode> directory and supporting files untouched, from a Terminal window type:
$ sudo <Xcode>/Library/uninstall-devtools --mode=unixdev
Finally, to just uninstall the <Xcode> directory you can simply drag it to the trash, or from a Terminal window type:
$ sudo <Xcode>/Library/uninstall-devtools --mode=xcodedir
NOTE: The uninstaller that ships with previous versions of the Xcode developer tools will not clean everything off of your system properly. You should use the one installed with these Xcode developer tools.
-=-
If you find a black hole with the above, you could always reinstall Xcode, with those tools deselected and then delete according to the above, but all bets are off at that point, sorry
Good luck in any case.

How do i uninstall xcode 4.3?

hello,
i need to uninstall xcode 4.3 because i found out my installation was corrupt. i used CleanMyMac to uninstall the app, but i can't dowload it from the app store because it sais it's still installed. i looked and the /Developer folder doesn't exist and neither does the app file in the applications folder.

i already managed to uninstall it.
seems that it also got installed in the downloads folder for some reason

How to uninstall the command line tools?

I installed the command line tools in Xcode 4.5 from the preferences : downloads : command line tools.
If i want to uninstall this component, what should I do？
PS:
I saw an answer in the Apple Support Communities about how to uninstall the Xcode 4.3 and later versions.
This is the original: " If You want to uninstall completely XCode go to launchpad and push Xcode icon for two
seconds, so click on the upper left checkbox.".
I don't know what means "push Xcode icon for two seconds, so click on the upper left checkbox".

There is no easy way to uninstall the command line tools. The following article has a script to uninstall them:
You Don’t Need The Xcode “Command Line Tools”
Read the comments in the article. I have not tested the script, but this is the first result when searching Google for "xcode 4.5 uninstall command line tools".
