I would like to delete an icon from the status menu bar, and then delete the remnants of an already deleted programme. Any help would be gladly appreciated.

I have attempted to delate Comodo AV, from my iMac. I have achieved this to a degree, as when i search for "Comodo" on finder, nothing appears. However the icon still appears in the status menu bar at the top right of my screen. Comodo worked fine, until the upgrade to Mavericks. I contacted Comodo and they said there should be no problem with Comodo AV working in Mavericks. Clearley this wasn't the case. I deleted as much of the software as i could, but have been left with hidden traces of Comodo's presence.
I there fore have two questions,
How can i take the icon out of the status menu bar? I have tried app removers without any luck as according to finder there isnt any comoso on the mac. I have also tried to use the "cmd and drag" technique, but again nothing happens.
How can i find the residue of Comodo on my hard drive if it is not showing up on any search?
I would really like to resolve these issues and any support would be greatly received.
thanks
Tim

Many thanks, Phil. I purchased the app you recomended, and following a bit of messing about, achieved both of my desired outcomes.
For your information yes there was a quit option, but this only worked as long as i was logged in. Whenever i logged out and back in again it returned.
thanks again,
Tim

  • My drop-down bookmarks menu has vanished from the menu bar and I have no idea how to get it back. Help, please?

    I have no idea what I did, one minute I was browsing that particular menu, the next it was gone. I can still access the sidebar version and my bookmarks toolbar is still there, but the actual menu is gone. Closing and restarting Firefox hasn't worked, neither has restarting my computer. I would really appreciate any advice.
    Thank you in advance!

    Hello,
    The Reset Firefox feature can fix many issues by restoring Firefox to its factory default state while saving your essential information.
    Note: ''This will cause you to lose any Extensions, Open websites, and some Preferences, but not Bookmarks and history''
    To Reset Firefox do the following:
    #Go to Firefox > Help > Troubleshooting Information.
    #Click the "Reset Firefox" button.
    #Firefox will close and reset. After Firefox is done, it will show a window with the information that is imported. Click Finish.
    #Firefox will open with all factory defaults applied.
    Further information can be found in the [[Reset Firefox – easily fix most problems]] article.
    Did this fix your problems? Please report back to us!
    Thank you.

    That situation went from inconvenient to complicated quickly.  Wait for any pending orders to drop off, wait for things to clear up, wait till your upgrade comes up and then upgrade when your contract is fulfilled.  I would have suggested a replacement phone, I know, with only a month left why couldn't you just upgrade early, but these situations where people try to upgrade early always end horribly and once a phone order starts, it almost cannot finish until something winds up shipped received and returned.  Sorry this happened the way it did.  Definitely not efficient.

  • I am trying to delete icons from the desktop but they do not delete

    I have tried to delete icons from the desk top but they do not remove.  I am not sure what to do.

    I click on the desktop icon,( it is an old file I no longer use), I push command and delete,  then I put in password.  Then it sounds like the icon is deleted but the icon is still there.
    Sounds like its permissions have been changed.
    Right-click (or ctrl-click) the file and choose 'get info' from the drop-down.
    Read the permissions at the bottom of the Info window.
    If you don't have read & write access, what does?

  • Can't get rid of an app's icon from the menu bar (the app is already deleted)

    i deleted an app the old fashion way (1st drag it to the trash and 2nd empty trash). That App was Logmein. The problem is that now i have logmein's icon at my desktop's menu bar and can't get rid of it. Please help

    You didn't delete all the application, of course.  (There was an uninstaller, but I guess it's gone now.)  You could try a search with command F for all Logmein stuff, make sure to include system files in your search.  Maybe have a look in /Library/Application Support .
    This might help.

    To find out what languages are supported, just read for yourself the tech specs:

    To find out if you can buy something you have to contact the store yourself.  The US Apple store does not sell to other countries.

  • How do I delete duplicate icons from the dock of an Imac 8.1?

    How do I delete duplicate icons from the dock of an Imac 8.1?

    No dragging to trash doesn't work. Just keep dragging them off. If they are stacked, which shouldn't happen, then when you delete one the other is still there.
    Just how did you get duplicates? Did you put them there? If not then you have other problems and I'm not sure how to correct it.

  • How can I remove icons from the desktop on my iPad Mini?

    I understand that there are apps on my iPad that I cannot delete, but is there a way of removing an icon from the desktop?

    Remove, but not uninstall from the device?  Where would they go if you did that?
    Once you delete an App it gets removed form the homescreen, and deleted from the iPad.
    There is no "Less used Apps" area or anything like that.
    Everything you have, and you can access, is on the home screen. There is no other place to access Apps.

    IS THE SITUATION HOPELESS
    I used Target mode to transfer files to a new i7  iMac running Snow Leopard 10.6.8 from an older Dual core Intel machine (EMC 2105) also on 10.6.8. but originally Tiger 10.4. The operation was successful and I ejected the disk icon from the new machine and powered down the old machine. When this was restarted the next day there was a grey screen with flashing Mac symbol alternating with a 'no entry' sign and occasionally a question mark.Keyboard and mouse were unusable so k inserted the original instal disc (No.1 for 10.4. with installer 1.0.4) which came with the machine in 2006 in an attempt to boot from this. The ensuing window said this was not possible and now it cannot be ejected.I have tried everything ! It offers Disk Utility and other options like Terminal but that doesn't work either.I 'repaired disk' and that was pronounced o.k. None of the various keystrokes at start up will work, and the computer will only offer the installer disc continually.The only option would seem to be is to erase the hard drive completely from the disc in the machine.I don't want to do this as there is still material which I need to recover. I think the drive has in some way been corrupted by using it in target mode, and I don't know if there are any other options to try.
              Please tell me how to get this disc to eject !

    Have you seen this type of problem before? I think it could be a serious issue for anyone in a similar position.
    No; but then, I've not had occasion to use TDM. I've been using firerwire drives for over 10 years, both FW400 and FW800, with no issues except a bit of instability using a B&W G3 machine.
    TDM should be safe. Using cautious, manual copying of files from the Target machine to the Host machine should not result in unexpected loss of files or damage to the Target drive's directories. It should behave exactly the same as if it were an external (to the Host) firewire drive.
    •  I don't suppose there is anything I can do to 'put back' lost items from a separate Time Machine drive which has an up to date backup on it.
    There is probably a way to do that - seems to me that's one of the reasons for a Time Machine volume.
    On the other hand, if the Time Machine volume is rigidly linked to the now-absent OS on the original drive, there may be no way to effectively access the files in the TM archive.
    I know that using a cloned drive would work well in this instance.
    I have no experience with Time Machine, so perhaps someone who has will chime in with suggestions.
    With the machine in TDM with the other machine, have you tried running Disk Utility to see if you can effect repairs to the drive?

  • How do I remove "All My Files" icons from the toolbar?

    Good Afternoon:
    I have A shiny new 15" MBPro that came preinstalled with Lion that I have updated to 10.7.1.
    If I open a finder window, there are two "All My Files" icons on either side of the toolbar. I asked a Genius about it and they said they had never seen that. I can remove "All My Files" from the list of Favorites on the left easily enough. I can open up the window to customize the ToolBar, but in that window there are no "All My Files" icons available to add or delete.
    How do I remove the "All My Files" icons from the toolbar?
    Any advice would be appreciated. Thanks.
    Below is a screenshot of the problem.

    Sort of surprised they didn't know. I'm lost as to why that even appeared on your computer unless you had put them there yourself which, clearly, you didn't if it was brand new out of the box.
    Glad it's sorted out.

  • Remove CC icon from status menu bar OS X Yosemite

    How do I remove the Creative Cloud icon from the status menu bar in OS X Yosemite?
    Apple allows me to command+drag their icons as I wish, and I can also control them via System Preferences.
    Am I wrong, or is Adobe insisting on forcing this icon on my desktop?
    Shouldn't the user have the ability to control what is and isn't showing on their screen? I know where my apps are, and I want a clean menu bar.

    Hi Helpme2015,
    I believe you have only trashed Adobe products from Applications. There is a slightly different procedure to remove Adobe products from MAC but since you have trashed the Applications already, we would have to follow the lengthy way around to remove the Adobe products now. Please follow the below mentioned steps and suggest.
    1)      Delete all the Adobe folders available within /Library/Application Support/
    2)      Delete all the Adobe folders available within /Library/preferences
    3)      Delete all the Adobe folders available within ~/Library/Application Support/
    4)      Delete all the Adobe folders available within ~/Library/Preferences/
    5)      Delete files and programs from within Application & Utilities .

  • I've copied my itunes library onto an external hard drive.  Is there any way I can do this and delete songs from my PC without also deleting from the external drive? Already lost two songs!!!

    I've copied my itunes library onto an external hard drive.  Is there any way I can do this and delete songs from my PC without also deleting from the external drive? Already lost two songs!!!  I just want a back up - using a work PC and don't want others accessing my songs.  Hope someone can help.  Thanks!

    I see. To get a better idea of what is being stored where please download and run the script iTunesInfo which should output something like this:
    I'm interested in the block of 4 results starting ITL location. If your profile name shows up somewhere replace it with <Name>.  It is also worth checking under Edit > Preferences > Advanced to see where iTunes thinks your media is supposed to go. My script estimates the setting based on the location of the first media file it can actually find.
