I know how to remove a installed program on a pc.  How do you remove one from a mac?

I know how to remove an installed program from a pc.  However, I just purchased an imac and installed mcafee security on it.  It totally messed up by printer.  I want to remove it from my imac.  How do you do that?  I moved everything I could visually see to the trash, but it is still on the imac.  Help.

This from McAfee website:
Steps to uninstall:
Click Go from your Finder window.
Select Applications.
Double-click the McAfee Internet Security Uninstaller.
Check the box beside Uninstall SiteAdvisor.
Click Continue.
Enter your admin password and click OK.
Click Finish.
It appears from this that McAfee has an uninstaller.  For much software there is no installer and removing it simply involves finding it in the Applications folder and dragging it to the Trash.  Yes, this can leave some small files in Library but they are normally not an issue.

    Thanks,Maya.

    Hi Maya
    First of all an Applet does not have to be "installed" as you would with a normal application. The browser handles the install and execution of the applet.
    Check out this URL for more about applets:
    http://web2.java.sun.com/docs/books/tutorial/applet/index.html
    On the subject client/server pairs - see:
    http://web2.java.sun.com/docs/books/tutorial/networking/sockets/index.html
    If you decide to make the game an application instead check out Sun's WebStart - under the products section.
    That's about all the help I can give you.
    Programming a game is a complicated subject - I am doing one too:

    How recently did you switch?  If it's less than 60 days, then Verizon simply reinstates your previous account.  The fact that you were on the EDGE plan and mailed the devices back, and they apparently are somewhere in the system, could cause complications, and it might just work out that you just go back on the same plan and they set you up with the same devices.  I'm not sure how it will go - but since you are still being billed for the devices...

  • How do I get iPhoto to my iPad 2 without buying it again? From my MAC?

    How do I get iPhoto to my iPad 2 without buying it again? From my MAC?

    The Mac version of iPhoto is not the same as the iOS version. So you cannot transfer iPhoto used on your Mac to your iPad. But if you previously purchased the iOS version of iPhoto you can download it again for another iOS device so long as that device is using the same Apple ID and the device that was used to purchase iPhoto in the forst place.

  • How can I uninstall Trend Micro Safe Surfing once the app has been deleted from my Mac OS X?

    How can I uninstall Trend Micro Safe Surfing once the app has been deleted from my Mac OS X?

    Check to see if there's such a folder as  either
    /Library/Application Support/Trend Micro
    ~/Library/Application Support/Trend Micro
    and if so, see if either contains an uninstaller.
    Failing that, download the demo version of the app from Trend Micro, and try the uninstaller that it should contain.
    If all else fails, the manual way would be to use something like EasyFind and search for anything with "com.trendmicro" in the filename (you can use Finder, but be sure to include system files and invisible files in the search options). Pay particular attention to the folders
    /Library/LaunchAgents
    /Library/LaunchDaemons
    ~/Library/LaunchAgents
    ~/Library/Internet Plug-Ins
    ~/Library/Preferences

  • How do I uninstall a program that is not listed in add/remove​?

    Running Windows 7 Home Premium 32-64bit. Hp p6210f.  Installed SIIG USB 2.0 video capture device.  Program installed but did not work.

Have no idea what to do with these icons.

I don't understand how to install the driver or how to use this program  The program is listed as "Honestech VHS to DVD 3.0 SE". I would just like to get rid of this program.  Can anyone tell me how?
    Thank you,

    Hi,
    If you are not able to uninstall the software in the usual way from Programs and Features, you could try a third party uninstaller such as the application detailed below.
    Download and install the free version of Revo Uninstaller from the link below.
    http://www.revouninstaller.com/download-freeware-v​ersion.php
    Run revo and see if this detects the installation.  If it does, right click on the icon of the program you wish to remove and select Uninstall. During the process you may be asked to delete registry entries, just select all and then click delete. Do the same for any left-over files and folders. Once the uninstall has completed, restart the notebook.
    Regards,
    DP-K

  • How do I set new tabs to BLANK? Why did you remove that choice from me?

    FF 5.0
    There use to be an option to set new tabs to blank.
    How do I do that now that you removed the option.
    I tried the obvious (?) of setting the new tab to "about:blank" and it still comes up with what ever search engine is paying you money.
    I even tried an add on to set it to blank. That didn't work either.
    Are we no longer allowed to have a clean, fast loading new page?

    Firefox always Opens a New Tab in a Blank page. You must have some add-on installed that's making the new tab to not open as Blank.
    -> click '''Firefox''' button and click '''Exit'''
    -> '''Start Firefox in Safe Mode''' (switch to the DEFAULT theme: Firefox (Tools) > Add-ons > Appearance/Themes).
    * https://support.mozilla.com/kb/Safe+Mode
    Firefox Safe Mode window will open. DON'T SELECT ANY OPTIONS, just click '''Continue in Safe Mode'''
    Check if the New Tabs are now opening as Blank pages while you are in Firefox Safe Mode.
    -> '''The problem does not occur in Safe Mode'''

  • I inadvertently deleted and emptied the trash bin on Firefox. I have a MAC OSX-VERSION 10.4.11. How can I re-install the latest version of Firefox that is COMPUTER FRIENDLY for the MAC OSX Version 10.4.11? I appreciate any help.

    I inadvertently deleted Firefox and emptied the trash bin. I believe it was version 3.5. I have a MAC OSX 10.4.11. After several futile attemps how can I re-install the latest version of Firefox compatible to my MAC system? Thanks!

    As of Firefox 4.0 and newer the Firefox builds from Mozilla requires both Mac OSX 10.'''5'''+ and a Intel.
    Either you can use 3.6.19 from http://www.mozilla.com/en-US/firefox/all-older.html
    Though for you 3.6.18 will be safe also as 3.6.19 was to workaround a font crashing issue on 10.7 Lion that was not fixed in time on Lion before release. http://releases.mozilla.org/pub/mozilla.org/firefox/releases/3.6.18/mac/ and pick your language and download the Firefox 3.6.18.dmg

  • How do you transfer music from a mac based Ipod to a PC based computer

    I have my main Itunes music collection on my "authorized" computer(Mac)at home and would like to transfer/move a copy of my collection to my "authorized"copy of Itunes computer(Windows) at work. My ipod is set up for the mac. Any clues hints or help would be appreciated

    If your iPod is formatted for Mac it won't run natively on a PC because Windows operating systems don't recognize Mac OS-formatted disks (HFS or HFS Plus formats). Mac formatted iPods can only be used on a PC that has a third party helper program such as XPlay or MacDrive installed. XPlay is an iPod specific program and can be used as an iTunes alternative, it will also let you copy songs from an iPod to a computer. MacDrive is more general and lets you access various types of Mac formatted drives on Windows such as CDs, DVDs, hard drives etc:
    XPlay

  • How do I manually remove an installed program (possible fishing Virus)?

    So I downloaded an app from this site but I can't seem to find it, is it possible that I've contracted a phishing virus, if so what are the steps i should take to remove it?
    http://mac.softpedia.com/progViewOpinions/Cheat-Engine-91967,.html

    What's that thing, Cheat Engine 5.6.1 for Mac?
    Did you just download it or did you actually install the package?
    The package installer looks like this when it opens:
    The spelling errors alone are sort of entertaining.
    Clicking Read License results in no action. Since I am unwilling to consent to something I cannot read, I hit Disagree and that was that.
    The next step will ask for your user name and password, after which it will do... what? Who knows, but no right-minded person should acquiesce to unknown modifications of a computer, unless it's already running Windows, in which case it's already messed up and this sort of behaviour is normal.
    If you didn't actually install it, just forget you ever saw this thing and get on with your life. No harm done.
