I have CC2, CC4 and CCC, and I would like to uninstall CC2 programs. I don't see an "uninstall" icon. How do I do it? Can I just drag them to the trash?
I have CS2, CS4 and CC, and I would like to uninstall CC2 programs. I don't see an icon to click on to do that. How do I uninstall those programs? Can I just drag them to the trash?
Yes, CS2, not CC2. I corrected that, but I guess I posted it first! I’m on a MacBook Pro, version 10.9.5.
Thanks,
Christy

I have iPhoto 11, version 9.4.1 installed. When my library upgraded, I got a message that the photos couldn't be inported and I need to repair iPhoto permissions. How do I do that? My photos are there, but I can no oonger drag them to the photo stream.
Disable Photo Stream in iPhoto's preferences and then go back and reenable it. See if that will jump start the process. If that doesn't help try this: make a temporary, backup copy (if you don't already have a backup copy) of the library and try the following:
1 - delete the iPhoto preference file, com.apple.iPhoto.plist, that resides in your
User/Home()/Library/ Preferences folder.
2 - delete iPhoto's cache file, Cache.db, that is located in your
User/Home()/Library/Caches/com.apple.iPhoto folder.
Click to view full size
3 - launch iPhoto check its preferences to meka sure all is as you expect and try again.
NOTE: If you're moved your library from its default location in your Home/Pictures folder you will have to point iPhoto to its new location when you next open iPhoto by holding down the Option key when launching iPhoto. You'll also have to reset the iPhoto's various preferences.
NOTE 2: In Lion and Mountain Lion the Library folder is now invisible. To make it permanently visible enter the following in the Terminal application window: chflags nohidden ~/Library and hit the Enter button - 10.7: Un-hide the User Library folder.

I have an empty folder and 3 .jpg files stuck on my desktop. When I drag them to the trash I am asked to enter my administrator's password. I do this but the files and folder will not delete. I have checked 'Get Info' on each of them and they are not locked and I have full read & write access. Grateful for any assistance in solving this problem.
Back up all data.
Triple-click anywhere in the line below to select it:
ls -@Oaen De* | open -f -a TextEdit
Copy the selected text to the Clipboard (command-C).
Launch the 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. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the icon grid.
Paste into the Terminal window (command-V).
A TextEdit window will open with the output of the command. Post the contents of that window, if any — the text, please, not a screenshot. The title of the window doesn't matter, and you don't need to post that.
If any personal information appears in the output, anonymize before posting, but don’t remove the context. -
In Finder, Desktop, a zillion photos show . I have no idea how they got to the desktop but have not been able to get rid of them. They are listed as greyed out. ON the Desktop I tried dragging them to the Trash. If I try to empty trash, 'some of the items you are moving are in use by another application. etc.." and now, another, Copy "Preparing to undo "move to Trash".
Try an All Images Search:
In the Finder:
Command - f
Kind: Images
Size: Greater than 300kb (This is to avoid all the thumbnails, icons and so on.)
Set it to search the Mac.
As to why? The most likely answer is user error, I'm afriad. It does point up the importantce of always having a back up.

My 2010 Macbook Pro that is running on OS X Mavericks (10.9.4) has been running rather slow lately because of all the files I use for work. I have gone through and deleted all the unnecessary applications by simply dragging them into the trash, but I am curious, does this ACTUALLY uninstall the application? My reason for asking is because in some cases, when dragging the app to the trash, the app simply just says, "Move to trash" and other times it says, "Uninstall application." Like I said I want to clear up as much space as possible to get my laptop running a bit faster.
And yes, I am already in the process of ordering new RAM to help speed up the computer as a whole, but I would like some help in UNINSTALLING unwanted applications, and am also open to any other ideas on how to speed my computer up. I am EXTREMELY tech savvy when it comes to computers, especially Apples, I just can't seem to figure this one out.... HELP ME!
Thank you in advanceHave a look at this video tutorial on how to uninstall applications completely on Mac OS X, something apps like AppZapper and AppDelete are not able to do yet.
And unless you have a 250 GB HDD with less than 5 to 10 GB of free storage, freeing up storage space will not make your computer run faster.
Maybe think about getting an SSD as system drive, it speeds up your Mac quite considerably.
As for other tricks:

I have photoshop cs6 for mac but I would like to make one of my 2 seats installed on my PC, how would I get another serial number since this one is just for mac?
Hi Matthew,
Perpetual products which use serial numbers are platform specific. You will not be able to use the same serial on a windows machine.
In order to use Photoshop on both Windows and Mac you will have to go for a creative cloud subscription.
Thank you for posting on Adobe Forums -
In contacts can you just list them without the letter headings above each one
In contacts can you just list them in name order without them being broke up by a solid letter ..ie just one list not broken up by each letter A,B ,C etc
Short answer, no.
That is the way the application is designed.

I need to move events from my iPhoto to a new external hard drive. Can I just drag events into the hard drive?
No.
Make sure the drive is formatted Mac OS Extended (Journaled)
1. Quit iPhoto
2. Copy the iPhoto Library from your Pictures Folder to the External Disk.
Now you have two full versions of the Library.
3. On the Internal library, trash the Events you don't want there
Now you have a full copy of the Library on the External and a smaller subset on the Internal
Some Notes:
As a general rule: when deleting photos do them in batches of about 100 at a time. iPhoto can baulk at trashing large numbers at one go.
You can choose which Library to open: Hold down the option (or alt) key key and launch iPhoto. From the resulting menu select 'Choose Library'
You can keep the Library on the external updated with new imports using iPhoto Library Manager -
I can't put some files in the Trash
Hello everyone,
Unfortunately, I'm having some trouble putting some files in the trash...
They say they're adobe dreamweaver files, but I've never installed dreamweaver - I was only flagged up about them when I tried to install dreamweaver, and was told that it was already installed and I needed to remove any files etc.
So I did a search for all adobe or dreamweaver files, and sure enough there they were. I consequently tracked to whack them all in the bin, but to no avail. The computer would say "this will permanently delete the file, are you sure?" - I would click yes, and it froze for a moment every time I tried and then popped up with this error message:
"Sorry, the operation could not be completed because an unexpected error occurred
Error code -61"
Here's a screen grab:
http://img78.imageshack.us/my.php?image=picture2cb3.png (the error message)
http://img213.imageshack.us/my.php?image=picture3sx0.png (the files in question are highlighted)
If anyone knows how I could delete these, that would be extremely helpful...
I've tried the get info, unlocking trick, and there's been no joy there - the read only options are faded out and not possible to change. I've also tried TrashIt, which was recommended, and didn't work...
Any ideas would be very kind, thanks...I can't find my OSX disk
I don't really understand this (that disk shows up in the screenshot you uploaded of the Finder window resulting from your search), but I also think it's irrelevant.
I went back and read your original post, and I saw this: 'The computer would say "this will permanently delete the file, are you sure?"'. I've since seen another entry in this Topic List which indicates that you get such a message when your .Trash folder is gone. (Of course, there may be other reasons why you can get the message too.) If that's true, then you really need to fix it. One easy way to find out is, try creating an ordinary file in your home directory, and then drag it to the trash? Does that work? I suspect you'll get the same message about "this will permanently delete the file, are you sure". But if you say "yes", it should succeed in deleting it. But it does indicate that your .Trash folder is probably gone.
if I create a new account that is also an administrator, then bin them, are you sure this will work?
(I assume that by "bin them", you mean "drag them to the trash".) In fact, you can just create a new account that isn't an administrator (unlike what I said in my previous post). If that account drags the stuff to its trash, Finder will prompt it for the name of an administrator account (like, yours), and its password. If you provide it, then empty that account's trash, the stuff should go away just fine.
Incidentally, the Subject of the item I mentioned above is "Trash deletes any file without emptying".
If I'm right about your trash not working, and you want a way to "fix" it, you can get back. Or maybe make a new problem. -
my wife and i both have iphone 4. they were set up with 1 icloud account. we now both have separate apple id's. I would like to set up a different icloud account on my phone with my apple id and password separate from my wife.
Decide which iPhone will be keeping the current iCloud account. On the one that will be changing accounts, if you have any photos in photo stream that are not in your camera roll or backed up somewhere else save these to your camera roll by opening the photo stream album in the thumbnail view, tapping Edit, then tap all the photos you want to save, tap Share and tap Save to Camera Roll. If you are syncing Notes with iCloud, you'll also have to email your notes to yourself so they can be recreated in the new account as they cannot be migrated.
Once this is done, go to Settings>iCloud, scroll to the bottom and tap Delete Account. (This will only delete the account from this phone, not from iCloud. The phone that will be keeping the account will not be effected by this.) When prompted about what to do with the iCloud data, be sure to select Keep On My iPhone. Next, set up a new iCloud account using a different Apple ID (if you don't have one, tap Get a Free Apple ID at the bottom). Then turn iCloud data syncing for contacts, etc. back to On, and when prompted about merging with iCloud, choose Merge. This will upload the data to the new account.
Finally, to un-merge the data you will then have to go to icloud.com on your computer and sign into each iCloud account separately and manually delete the data you don't want (such as deleting your wife's data from your account, and vice versa). -
I often record songs at a particular tempo, iTunes Match will then match it and send it back to me at the original tempo, is there anyway I can stop some songs from being matched. At the moment I have turned match off. But I would like to sync playlists.
How old was this backup? It sounds like it was at least several weeks old.
You can look directly in the TM backup for the music.
1. Connect to the external HDD the backup is kept on.
2. Open a Finder window and select the backup drive in the left hand panel. Double click into the folders until you see a list of folders with dates.
These are the incremental backups. You can start at the top or the bottom of the list but I suggest you double Latest/<HDD Name>/Users/<Account Name>/Music/iTunes/iTunes Media/Music. From this location you can start looking for the "missing" music. When/if you find it you can simply drag-n-drop to ~/Music/iTunes/iTunes Media/Music on the internal HDD.
If the music is actually not in the backups (for whatever reason) then you've got a problem.
You can download the uploaded files from the cloud by deleting the affected tracks from the iTunes library (but not the cloud!), highlighting multiple tracks at once, right-clicking and choosing "download." -
I have dragged 2 files to the trash bin but I cannot delete them from the trash bin. It keeps telling me these files are in use when they are not. How do I delete these files? One is a txt file and the other is an xls file
From the Finder menu select 'Secure Empty Trash'. If this or the suggestion above doesn't resolve the problem take a look at the various suggestions in this link:

I have an iPhone and iPad. I would like to get my husband an iPhone. Are we able to sync all devices and share info with both iPhones and the iPad, using a single email address?
Thanks for that. He is one of the last holdouts in IT so an email address for him would just mean I have 2 to check so that is what I am trying to avoid as we move into retirement:)

I have a video I 'm editing and some of the shot taken (on the left and right) I would like to remove. Is this possible to do ? If so, how?
If you mean there are parts of the picture at the sides you want to remove, you have at least 2 choices.
You can mask the edges of the frame or enlarge it so that the left and right sides are outside the picture area.
The latter suggestion will reduce the quality of the video and you will also lose an equal amount from the topand bottom, though you could slide the image up or down. -
I have different account ID's with my iphone and computer.
I would like to standardize both to just the one.
One of the ID's doesn't work, when I tried to list this second email with the preferred one a message telling me that this email is already in use pops up.. yes it is, with me??
Is there an easy to fix this please, FabfitzIf the email address you want to use is being used as the primary email address on a different ID you have to manage that ID and change it to a different primary email address. This explains how: Change your Apple ID - Apple Support.
If it is being used as an alternate or rescue address on a different ID, you manage the ID and either remove it or change it to a different email address. This explains how: Manage your Apple ID primary, rescue, alternate, and notification email addresses - Apple Support.
