I want to get rid of all unwanted apps off my iphone5. I mean the ones appear as bought but not in use. Is this possible?

No, you can not delete the pre-installed apps. However, you can hide them by placing them in a folder (create one by dragging one app onto another) and putting that folder on an unused page.

I am getting an error "The older version of Bonjour cannot be removed" I am trying to get rid of all of my Apple Software. What can I do? Because it will not let me uninstall iTunes either.

Akeenleyside,
Are you removing your Apple software in an attempt to update to iTunes 10.5? I ask this because I am getting the same message when trying to install iTunes 10.5.

Hi apples-consecutive-buyer-for-life,
Family Sharing makes all of your past purchases available to other family group members, including most apps. See this article on what content can be shared -
Which purchased content can I share using Family Sharing
Note also that content can be hidden. See this article -
Hide and unhide purchases in the Mac App Store
Thanks for using Apple Support Communities.
Best,

I have Fox, CNN, and BBC always open on my screen using AOL within Firefox. I want to get rid of AOL. What can I do to have the same screen (yes, bookmarks are on the left.

I want to have several web sites open on my screen at the same time, in "boxes" showing the headlines, like I now have on my AOL screen.
AOL is not working right, and I want to get rid of it.
Thanks for your help

Firefox 4+ versions use a new build-in home page named <b>about:home</b> with a Google search bar on it (no internet access needed to load that page).<br />
That about:home page only shows some snippets and has a button to restore the previous session if applicable.
If you want a home page without the Restore Previous Session button and the snippets then set another page as the home page like www.google.com used in Firefox 3 versions.
You may be seeing a similar ad on the Google site to install Google Chrome.<br />
In that case use the close X on that ad to close that pop-up and it should stay away unless local storage gets cleared.

HT1688 I have an iPhone 5 16 GB.. It keeps popping up "storage almost full." I have a lot of music, but I've had to get rid of all my apps and pictures. I now cannot download new songs either, becuase I do not have enough storage. Do I have to buy a 32gb?

My iPhone 5 is a 16GB. The storage is almost full. Is there a way to add more storage, or do I have to buy a 32GB phone? I've had to delete my pictures and apps. I also cannot download any new music, update apps, or purchase new apps.

Upgrading phones is between you and the carrier if you are wanting them to subsidize the phone. Otherwise you would have to purchase the phone at full price.
Transferring purchases from the phone to iTunes is done with the device is connected to the computer, and in iTunes selecting transfer purchases. Yes, that will yield more storage on the phone when doing that.

How to get rid of ALL the preview Icons in all the folders?

I want all the files on my computer to show the generic icon of the app, not the preview of it. I use very small icons and icon preview is a torture instead of pleasure – finding things in folders is an unbearable adventure.
I have untaged the "Show Icon Preview" in the 'View Options' tab and clicked 'Use as Defaults' button. Then restarted the Finder. It did the job for most files, but there are still many images, that still have their preview on.
I suppose that some Applications like Photoshop add custom previews to files when saving them, and those custom previews probably override the folder settings.
So - is there any way to get rid of all those CUSTOM image previews as well?

The Finder will display custom thumbnails when these are present, it can't help itself. For those programs that create their own custom thumbs the only thing you can do is re-set the preference from within the application itself to not create them, and to remove them from files that already have them. Someone has probably written an Applescript or Automator Workflow to remove them recursively from a folder full of images. You can ask in those forums. Otherwise you have to do GetInfo on the file, select the wee little icon at the top of the GetInfo window and press delete or cut the icon.

I want to get rid of Non-english fonts on my imac

I want to get rid of all the languages besides english on my imac. Also, my extended fonts folder that was in Library is now non-existent, all seems to be through font book...ugh.

The program used to remove languages is Monlingual from http://monolingual.sourceforge.net/ . Developer says it works on Snow Leopard, however, at least one person on their web site says it works under Lion. In any event, you should have a system backup before using it. Choose the languages to delete carefully.

i want to get rid of everything in itunes , music, movies etc and start afresh. Ive deleted all old libraries but still there is stuff in iTunes. Please help me start afresh?

Please do not delete any files from the HDD without having a current backup.
I'm not sure what you mean when you say you've "deleted all old libraries." Can you explain that?
If all you are wanting to do is empty the iTunes library of all music, video playlists, etc. the easiest way is to quit iTunes and, in the Finder, go to ~/Music/iTunes and simply move the .itdb, .itl and .xml files to the trash. Launch iTunes again and the library will be empty.
You should be prompted to add content, so you can let iTunes scan the HDD if you like.

My ical is showing "on my mac" "iCloud" and "yahoo" calendars. I just want one calendar that will sync up to my iPhone. How can I get rid of all these Calendars???

'On My Mac' and Yahoo calendars won't sync to iCloud. You can move them to iCloud, but then Yahoo will lose contact with its calendars. if you are happy to sync onlly with iCloud, and thus to your iPhone, you can move the calendars: you will have to do it one at a time, and the process is just a trifle convoluted - it's described in the first set of numbered instructions here:

Try to connect in recovery mode, explained in this article:
iOS: Unable to update or restore
Before that, back up your device, explained here:

I have the iPhone 4, and yesterday I synced my photos onto iTunes, but now I have albums on my phone that cannot be deleted, and there is not an option to delete the items in the albums individually... How do I get rid of these unwanted albums? Windows 7

If you used iTunes to get the photos on the phone, then use the same iTunes and uncheck the music you don't want and do another sync.

Can I get rid of all the passwords in my phone, and just turn it on?

Can I get rid of all the passwords in my phone, and just turn it on?

If you're referring to activation lock, no. If the phone is activation locked, you can not activate it without the credentials originally used to lock it.
Why don't you explain exactly what the problem is.
If you have a passcode set and don't want one, then set up Touch ID to make it faster for you to access the phone. Turning off the lock screen passcode entirely is not smart.

I bought a used IPAD 2- it still has the old users Apps, Password, 500 photos, -how do I get rid of all this to make it my own?

I bought this used I Pad 2. It still has the lady's password connected to everything- can't even upgrade her Netflix account- cause it's Her password! Ugh!
Has 500 photos of her kids' crap and a bunch of Apps I don't want. And videos. What do I do to get rid of all this?!
THANK YOU!

On the iPad, go to Settings > General > Reset and select Erase All Content and Settings, or restore the iPad with iTunes on your computer as a new iPad.
