I downloaded gimp+x11 and message says can't uninstall -help please

I downloaded gimp with X11 and want to uninstall it but an icon of a hard drive is in my sidebar under my mac hard drive icon with gimp X11 on it and when I tried to drag it to the trash, a message popped up saying "can't = put it in trash because gimp cannot be uninstalled" . Please help me. I have an older version of adobe creative suite but wanted a simpler paint program to merge art and photos. I desperately want to uninstall gimp because it is not even as good as Tuxpaint which my granddaughter uses at school and which I realized has options of photo merging also and seems like a better designed program even if it is for kids. The only problem with Tuxpaint is enlarging its canvas or workspace window and I haven't yet found how to export it's images but my granddaughter loves it and will flip when she realizes she can load photos from her digital camera, I hope. My main problem though is getting rid of gimp. Thank you for your help.

It sounds like you have a disk image mounted. If that's so, unmount it by clicking the eject icon that appears when you mouse over it in the Finder sidebar, then move the image file (something like "Gimp.dmg") to the Trash.

Try this it worked for me Pat Willener gave it to me off the site :
I have not read all you wrote, so I may have missed some points. As I understand it, you installed FP 10 on IE7, but it won't play any Flash content?
Try this
download the FP uninstaller from http://www.adobe.com/go/tn_14157
close all browser windows, then run the uninstaller
download the offline ActivX installer for Internet Explorer from http://fpdownload.macromedia.com/get/flashplayer/current/install_flash_player_ax.exe
close all browser windows, then run the installer

Mail won't upload? and messages won't delete? HELP PLEASE!

hello, i have no idea how to use this discussion board, but my mail on my mac will not upload/recieve new mail. i have clicked and refreshed the 'get mail' button and nothing happens. sometimes beside the inbox tab a triangle appears with an exclamation point and it has a message saying mail can't be recieved. Also, i composed a message with picture in it, and the message was too big, so i decided to just not send it, and a tab labeled "on my mac" has a tab underneath of it labeled 'recovered messages' and the email i composed with pictures appeared in that like an inbox 26 times. they won't delete and neither will my trashed emails. help please!!

When I click on Firefox.exe I get error message Can't start Firefox.exe as js3250.dll missing. When I try to re-download Firefox I get message saying can't download because Firefox is already running, but it isn't. How and where can I get js3250.dll?

Why punish me for a few too many keystrokes by deleting what I have already entered below my question. You're becoming MS.

My i tunes won't open. i keep getting error7 (windows error 193) . contacted microsoft(thought it was a windows thing...not) have uninstalled itunes and everything related to it ,re installed and message still comes up. Help please,driving me crazy.

help. my iTunes wont open. I keep getting the message error7 (windows error 193). contacted Microsoft they said contact iTunes support. I have uninstalled all iTunes componets and then reinstalled everything but message still comes up... its driving me crazy.

If it's a Windows error, it's typically going to be a Microsoft problem. Uninstall any security software you have and if you have a restore point for your PC, you may want to restore your PC back to when iTunes was working normally. If none of those work you would need to contact Microsoft and demand help.

Downloaded itunes 8 and my music library disappeared! HELP PLEASE!

Is there any way to get my library back after downloading itunes 8? It cleared everything - all my music, playlists....
and no....I do not have my music saved to disc/or external harddrive yet....

When you open iTunes do you have the dreaded ! next to each tune? If so then you need to put the tunes back where they were before the problem occurred. Are your PL listed on the left side?
The default path for iTunes is HD>Users>My Account>Music>iTunes>iTunes Music. iTunes music is where the folders would be nested by Artist>Album>Tune.
If in iTunes prefs>Advanced you have selected the options to 'keep' and 'copy' the above path is the normal place where your tunes should be. This is also where you set the path for iTunes to go find your tunes.

When I click on the converted PDF in my downloads, I receive a message saying'invalid format' Could that be because I use 'Pages' and not 'Word" If so, how can I convey PDF's to Pages?

When I click on the converted PDF n my downloads, I receive a message saying 'invalid file format'.
Could that be because I use Pages and not Word?
If so, how can I convert my PDF's to Pages so I can modify the documents?

Hi Kathy,
I'm not very familiar with Pages, but I did just read on Apple's website that it does import .docx files. What happens when you open Pages, and then choose File > Open to open the .docx files?
Best,
Sara

Ipad2 tried to update numbers and keynote apps, now can't access either and message says unable to download ?

Tried to update app's numbers and keynote, now can't access either of them and message says app can't be uploaded at present, so now both apps just show blank download bar, and I can't open them up at all. Can anyone help ?

Remember that you can always try finishing the downloads in iTunes on your computer and then sync the iPad to try to move the apps to the iPad.
You can try any of these suggestions as well.
Make sure that you do not have a stalled download in iTunes - a song or podcast .... if you have a download in there that did not finish, complete that one first. Only one thing can download at a time on the iPad so that could be what is causing the problem.
If that doesn't work - sign out of your account, restart the iPad and then sign in again.
Settings>Store>Apple ID. Tap your ID and sign out. Restart the iPad by holding down on the sleep button until the red slider appears and then slide to shut off. To power up hold the sleep button until the Apple logo appears and let go of the button.
Go back to Settings>Store>Sign in and then try to update again. Tap one waiting icon only if necessary to start the download stream.
You can also try deleting the waiting icons - tap and hold down on an icon until it wiggles - the tap the X on the icon to delete it. Then try to download again.
You can try resetting all settings. Settings>General>Reset>Reset All Settings. You will have to enter all of your app preferences and device settings again.

Also I now can`t access any of my itunes library and am concerned that if I remove it from my computer I will lose everything as I have no option of accessing and therefore backing anything up. Any ideas?

I can't download the current update, message says I am not connected to the internet although I am.

Assuming that you're not in a country that restricts or censors internet access, or connected to a LAN that does so (i.e. some dormatory and office systems):
1. Reset the phone (no data loss): Press both the home and power buttons for at least 10 seconds, releasing when the Apple logo appears.
2. Settings > General > Reset > Reset Network Settings
3. Disable WiFi and update using cell data network.

Then you should talk to that person. Apple won't help you if the iOS was downloaded illegally, and since this is their community, due to Terms of Use, no one here will help you either.

How do I reinstall iWeb 3.0.3? I inadvertently opened an html file of my website and tried to open it with iWeb '09. I get a message saying "Can't open file" etc., etc. I've tried reinstalling the updated version. Iweb will not open.

Delete the iWeb preference file, com.apple.iWeb.plist, that resides in your Home/Library/Preferences folder. Then launch iWeb and see if it opens.
What happened was trying to open the html file reset the file path that iWeb saves in its preference file to tell it where to go when you launch iWeb. Deleting the pref file and launching iWeb creates a new file and iWeb looks in your Users/Home/Library/Application Support/iWeb folder for the Domain.sites2 file it uses to create your site.

You need to reinstall the App Store.
Use Lion Recovery to do that.
