I need uninstall and reinstall Pages 05.  How do I completely uninstall it?

I downloaded Pages 5 and it worked for a few days.  Now it won't open.  I get an error.  How do I competely uninstall it and then reinstall.  I've dragged the application to the trash, emptied the trash but App Store says it is still installed.  Help!!

The App Store uses Spotlight to look for installed software; if you have a backup copy of the application anywhere that Spotlight might find it, it will still see the application as installed. Otherwise, moving the application to the Trash and emptying the Trash should be sufficient for getting a reinstall.
In the future, though, if an application has worked for a few days and then stopped working, reinstalling the application is unlikely to fix things, because the problem is most likely in some file that has been written since the application was installed (like a preference file, a font cache or a corrupt document) and once an application is installed, the application itself is only read (except for updates, which are pretty much a reinstall).

    What is the capacity of the flash drive?
    You might also be able to reinstall Lion without a flash drive, by booting up the computer holding the Command + R keys, and choosing Reinstall OS X.

  • Some websites are saying I need to enable cookies when it is enabled already. I already tried deleting the cookie, deleting all cookies, clearing my cache, and uninstalling and reinstalling Firefox. How do I fix this?

    I am trying to access my school's library database. When I log in to access the library, it tells me that the site needs to verify me by sending me a cookie. There's a link to log in again, but when I click it, it says "404 not found". My privacy settings already have cookies enabled, and I tried deleting the cookie and revisiting the site but the same thing happens. I also tried uninstalling Firefox and reinstalling it, but that didn't work either. I am able to access the library on my iPod Touch, and I've tried other browsers on this compute and I can't access them on other browsers either. So it is clearly some issue with my computer that is preventing me from accessing this library. I don't know how else I can resolve this issue and I need to do so ASAP because my inability to access the library off campus is severely hampering my ability to get my work done.

  • Can I uninstall and reinstall "Pages" without losing files?

    My Pages program may be, ...IS, ...corrupted.  (Maybe by a disgruntled co-worker?)  When I type a client's name, Pages automatically misspells it.  Same with my own name, and perhaps with other words I've not yet discovered.
    I suppose I should uninstall and reinstall to see if the malware is limited to Pages or if it's a system-wide problem.  But I don't know how to do that.  I've never uninstalled a program and do not know what might happen to various files, if anything. 
    I've tried fixing the problem in the automatic "spell check" function.
    Ideas? Advice?
    -JS

    Possibly, however, before you remove it try removing the preference files from the application These can be found in Users/yourname/Library/Preferences or /Library/Preferences.  Since the autocorrect uses the dictionary found in Users/yourname/Library/Spelling, you may want to see if the dictionary was corrupted as well.  If it is system-wide you should see it in other locations such as Numbers or if you are using Lion you will see it in Safari as well.
    If you don't see the preference files also check both /Library/Application Support, and Users/yourname/Library/Application Support.

  • How can I remove and reinstall pages?

    I went into the applications folder and deleted pages, then emptied the trash can so it's no longer on my system. However, when I go into the app store and pull it up under past purchases, it just says "open" instead of download. I either need help figuring out what file I need to delete that makes the app store think pages is still or installed, or need help forcing the app store to re-download pages anyway. Thanks in advance guys, any help is much appreciated!

    Unfortunately using the option button doesn't do anything, however I did figure out that I needed to delete the shortcut from launchpad in addition to simply removing it from applications. After doing that, the app store figured out I didn't have it installed and let me re-download it. Thank you for responding to my question

  • Firefox crashes for unknown reason lately, so I removed it and reinstalled it. How can I put my Favorites (bookmarks) back into the newly installed FireFox???

    Firefox crashes a few times when I was on Facebook and with email, also watching dramas online. Most of the time due to Adobe Flash and I did submit crash report. Later it crashes for unknown reason while I have email and Facebook on different tabs -- when I was on the tab of email, it looks system hang and not responding. This happened to my laptop that uses Windows Vista as I noticed. I don't remember it ever happens to my desktop that uses Windows XP.
    It's pretty annoying of such known crash, but before removing Firefox, I did try to update all add-ons or plugins and it looks like doesn't work out. After updating for couple times and it still crashed like that, I removed Firefox and reinstall it.
    '''Now I want to know how to put the shortcuts from my Favorite folder into the newly installed FireFox's bookmarks.''' I didn't backup the bookmarks by using Firefox. I even went to Firefox help for instructions, but it only mentions how to merge/input the bookmarks from other browsers. Please note the version I've removed and inrestalled is the same -- 3.6.13.

    It is possible that there is a problem with the files sessionstore.js and sessionstore.bak in the Firefox Profile Folder.
    Delete the sessionstore.js file and possible sessionstore-##.js files with a number and sessionstore.bak in the Firefox Profile Folder.

    Deleting sessionstore.js will cause App Tabs and Tab Groups and open and closed (undo) tabs to get lost, so you will have to create them again (make a note or bookmark them).

  • On every website, my right vertical scroll bar is missing and all of my Toolbar bookmarks unless I minimize the window, click "view" and "full page." How do i get it back to NORMAL?

    When I hit "full page" the right vertical scroll bar re-appears, but my bookmark toolbars, my bing bar, and pretty much the entire top 2 inches of my screen disappears. When all of these things are showing, the right vertical scroll bar disappears, and the entire webpage shifts to the right, so I can't see most of the right side of the page. How do I fix this?

  • If I delete and reinstall an app how do I get back my in app purchases

    How do I get my in app purchases back after deleting and reinstalling an app. Specifically for the picture making app WOWFXHD ! I hade to delete the app because there was a glitch causing it to instantly close out while in the middle of working on a picture. All progress would be lost. I deleted the app thinking reinstalling it would fix the bug. It did not fix it at all. Still closing shut and losing all work done. I made quite a few in app purchases and now don't have them on the newly installed app. I downloaded it from the purchased tab in App Store by clicking the download arrow inside the cloud symbol like I read to do . What can I do now?

    All of the apps with in app purchases that I have also have a method somewhere within the app to 'restore purchases'.  I don't know about your specific app but you could look for such a method.

  • I want to delete all of icloud and reinstall it.  How?

    For more than a week, iCloud has been deleting all of my emails as soon as received.  I have spent MANY hours on the phone to Apple support.
    I'm told they can fix it within 7 business days!!!
    Can't I just wipe the system and start fresh?

    Try resetting iCloud mail ...
    Open System Preferences > iCloud
    Switch Mail off then back on.
    See if mail still gets deleted.

  • I need to Uninstall the preinstalled Windows8, then Reinstall it. How do I get a copy?

    I have an HP Pavilion preinstalled with Windows 8. Updated it to 8.1. 
    My problem is with Outook 2013. It is stuck in "Loading Profile".  Solutions from the Net did not help.  Uninstall and Reinstall Office 2013 did not work either.  I badly need to make Outlook 2013 work in this laptop. 
    My last resort is to to Uninstall and Reinstall Windows. How do I get a copy?
    Please help.
    Thanks.

    Many thanks for the reply Erico.
    I tried Recovery Manager but it says "Recovery Manager is already running".  And when the window was able to pop up, the Recovery Media Creation option is greyed out or disabled.  Is this because my laptop has a Recovery Partition (D?
    The Recovery Drive says "3.24GB free of 23,8GB".  But the folder is empty.  Is it because I tried to delete it before to free up some space?   I just couldn't remember if it was successful.
    My HP Pavilion does not have a CD drive.  I use a USB flash drive to install Office 2013.  I am used to using Office 2013 and Windows 8.1 already.  I want to retain the same settings.
    Been searching the Net for this Outlook 2013  "stuck at Loading Profile" problem.    I've only been using Office 2013 for 2 months.
    I don't remember installing an Indexer program.  How do I find it in my laptop? 
    MY antivirus is Avast.

  • Trying to uninstall and reinstall iTunes

    A number of my past files are no longer playing fully. Some cut-out. Others don't come in until well into the song. This seemed to occur after I upgraded iTunes to 6.0.4. Now, my purchased songs are not uploading fully even though the bar on the screen indicates it did. ITunes proposed that the application may need to be reinstalled.
    #1 How do I UNinstall iTunes so that ALL of the old application is gone?
    #2 Anybody have this problem and is this (reinstalling) the way to go?
    Imac G5   Mac OS X (10.4.5)  

    I eventually went to an Apple Genius Bar after not resolving the problem through either iTunes or Apple.
    The answer was to simply 'deauthorize' my computer and reauthorize it. Problem solved!
