Is there a way to remove security updates?

Since installing the latest security update (11-28-06) on a G4 powerbook with 10.4.8 I can no longer launch AOL software which I need to do and can't just use the web version.
I have uninstalled and reinstalled AOL software but it unexpectedly quits I'm pretty sure it was the security update. Is there a way to uninstall just that? I have called aol, no help, Do I have to do a clean OS X install?
The report I get is:

My question was "is there any way to remove a security update?
No just as you can't remove an OS update such as 10.4.8.
Your OS detail provided in your original post indicated 10.4.3 and now no information provided with this post.
Are you running 10.4.8?
The only way to remove a Security or OS update is a re-install with your 10.4 install package which can be done via an Archive & Install selecting preserve user and network settings and then running Software Update or downloading the particular OS update which does not include the latest security update.
Although I don't use it often, I haven't experienced any problems with the AOL program and I've installed all available updates including the latest security update.

    Hi Guys,
    Just wondering if there is anyway of removing security updates, as since I updated recently to Security Update 2007-009 I have been experiencing extremely strange phenomenon with my browsing speed all browsers has slowed alot.
    I really want to refrain from having to wipe and start again though!
    Cheers

    The only option left then is an Archive and Install feature...

    Then stop updating before the latest updates.

  • Is there a way to remove additional BP Address in BP Master Data using DTW

    Hi,
    While updating the BP addresses using DTW it got duplicated. Is there a way to remove those Shipto/ Billto addresses which got duplicated. Individually it is possible to remove but using DTW can I create a template?
    Thanks.
    Kishor

    You need to first check if the address line actually exists.  What you have got from Natalia is a guideline which you have to apply to your context.
    Query the CRD1 table and check which line number you want to delete and if it really exists
    The query below will give you cardcode, address type (billto or shipto), Address Name and LineNumber. 
    If you run this query wthin SBO, if you see a blank on the linenum column that means linenum 0.
    SELECT T0.[CardCode] AS 'BP Code', T0.[AdresType] AS 'Address Type',
    T0.[Address] AS 'Address Name', T0.[LineNum] AS 'Row Number'
    FROM  [dbo].[CRD1] T0

  • Is there a way to remove your sim card if you don't have the tool that came with your phone?

    Is there a way to remove your sim card if you don't have the tool that came with your phone? I wanted to see if I could upload my old information to the iCloud, by putting the new sim card into the old phone, since I didn't before I updated my new phone.

    Any metal clip will do. Insert the tip in the little hole next to the Sim Card and press FIRMLY. The SIM drawer will pop out.

  • Is there a way to remove a password from a Document?  We have a form that an ex employee created and didn't reveal the password to anyone before he left

    We have a document that a former employee created and password protected.  He left without revealing the password to anyone and now we need to make changes to the form.  Is there a way to remove the security?

    Hello Kelly,
    if you can't negotiate a private agreement, there is no possibility to recover this document. Then the only way is, that you copy the contents or create a new one according to your wishes.

  • HT5891 Is there a way to remove the menu bar from a secondary display while still using the "Displays have separate spaces" mode?

    Is there a way to remove the menu bar from a secondary display while still using the very useful "Displays have separate spaces" mode?
    The reason I ask is that most full-screen video playback in most applications, from iTunes to Flash/Silverlight plugins do not take up the full screen, instead leaving space for the menu bar (in the case of iTunes) or leaving the menu bar present on top of the video (for fullscreen Flash/Silverlight videos).
    This is annoying for several reasons ranging from the obvious distraction factor to the fact that 1080p video is not played back at native resolution on a 1080p display.
    If there is no way to disable this functionality while maintaining separate spaces, I would (humbly) suggest that a future update to Mavericks allow non-Lion-style* full-screen apps to take over the entire display.
    *Lion-style full-screen apps are those that animate into a full-screen mode when the opposing-arrows full-screen button in the upper-right-hand corner of the window is pressed.

    No. Turning that off reverts to the old display setup. You have one desktop spanned across all displays. The menu bar appears on the primary display only.

  • Is there any way to remove my name from the profil...

    Is there any way to remove or prevent my profile from appearing in the profile search directory? I'm so tired of ALL the unwanted contact requests. Yeah I know I don't have to add them but this shouldnt even be a problem in the first place. If I want to add someone to add me I'll give them my skype name.

    Hi, Phnxbane, and welcome to the Community,
    You may certainly remove all profile data by leaving those settings as "blank" or "not specified."  I find the easiest way to do this is to open the profile settings from within the Skype "client" software.
    Removing/deleting an account name from the Skype search directory closes the account.  More details about this can be found here: 'Can I delete my Skype account?'

  • Any way to remove Security Zone from portal?

    Hi,
    is it possible to somehow remove a Security Zone from portal? I know that security zones can be configured (craeated) by portal application developers in portalapp.xml file. However, when I undeploy such an application, I can still see it's security zone in "Permissions" editor. Is there any way to remove these unused security zones? I use EP 7.0.17.
    Regards,
    Tomas

    Hi Michael,
    thank you, it seems that PCD Inspector is the right place. There is just one small problem: I located the unused security zone, marked it and clicked "Delete" button. I got following message:
    "To use this function of the PCD Inspector, enter the 'super admin' permission key in the personalization dialog, which you can open by clicking the Personalize option in the main tray"
    Problem is that I don't know what is the "'super admin' permission key" or where to find it. I can't find anything on this topic. Can anybody help me with this?
    Regards,
    Tomas

  • Is there a way to remove the text that appears over dock icons when the cursor is over them?

    Is there any way to remove the text that appears over dock icons when you hover over them?  Or at least make it time out, or become more transparent?

    You can do that with the Menu Editor extension - https://addons.mozilla.org/firefox/addon/menu-editor/
    This extension has not been updated by its author in a couple of years, but another developer has updated it for Firefox 4, you can get the updated version from http://netticat.ath.cx/MyAddons/MyAddons.htm#3rdpartyaddons

  • Is there a 12/23/2014 security update for Snow Leopard.  Does it need one?

    Is there a 12/23/2014 security update for Snow Leopard?   Does it need one?  

    The ntp-4.2.8 folder that's created when you download the /ntp-4.2.8.tar.gz file and unzip it. Inside it are subfolders, such as clockstuff w/propdelay.o and libntp w/a_md5encrypt.o, assertions.o, atoint.o, etc. Many .o files abound.
    OK, but this isn't .o, it's -o. I don't know of any file extension that uses the - hyphen. Are there any?
    Anyway, at the end of flatsixracer's instructions, for sudo ntpd --version, he wrote, "(should now be: ntpd [email protected])" So, since he gets that when running the update, I'm thinking this can go either way, with or without the -o, and be normal.

  • TS1702 Is there a way to remove a buggy app permanently?

    Is there a way to remove a buggy app permanently?  iKlavier is useless, but keeps trying to update via the app store.  It never actually updates and I want to remove all traces of it.  I have deleted it multiple times from my iPad, but it won't go away!  Thanks!

    Try deleting it in iTunes on your computer as well. Launch iTunes and click on apps under the library heading on the left side. Right click on the app and select delete. Follow the onscreen prompts to completely trash the app from your computer. Then sync your iPad and see if the update notifications go away.

  • I have hidden unwanted books from the purchased area of the iBooks store, but they're are still appearing on the front page of iOS as cloud downloads, is there a way to remove these from iBooks without using the hide iCloud books button?

    I have hidden unwanted books from the purchased area of the iBooks store, but they're are still appearing on the front page of iOS as cloud downloads, is there a way to remove these from iBooks without using the hide iCloud books button?
    Let me explain a little more. I had downloaded a lot of free books in the past as a trial when iBooks was first released and since then I have decided I no longer want them, because of this I hid them from the purchased section of the iBooks store. The 5 books left are ones I decided to keep as seen in the following picture.
    This is how it appears in iBooks on my mac. There are 4 books downloaded and 1 book that I have decided not to download at this time. I would still like to keep this book available in the cloud incase I want to download it again in the future. You’ll notice that hide iCloud books is not selected, if I wanted to hide the book that I have chosen to keep in the cloud, but have not downloaded yet I could.
    This is exactly how I think this feature should work. If you have hidden a book from your purchases it should not show up in the mac Ibooks app. (I am aware you can never actually delete a purchase, just hide them and that hidden purchases can be restored to your account from within the account management section of the iBooks store).
    The iOS app is working differently for me. Here is a picture of the purchased tab on the iBooks store in iOS Ibooks. Again notice that pictures of Lilly is still yet to be downloaded. This is how I expected it to look.
    If we visit the front page of iOS iBooks the view is very different from what I expected. Here we can see the 4 books I wanted to keep on my device and have downloaded. We can also see the 1 book I wanted to keep, but did not want to store locally on the device and left in iCloud (Pictures of Lilly). However we can also see all the books I had hidden from the purchased section of my iTunes account and which I believe should no-longer be visible, Dracula, frankenstein etc…
    I am aware of the hide iCloud books button within the iOS app, but I did not need to use this to hide the books I had removed from the my purchased section of the iBooks store on the mac, why are they still appearing in iOS?
    I’m still not sure if this is a software glitch or not. This article suggests to me that books can be hidden, but I had already completed these steps.
    https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT201322
    A browse of google also suggests people may have been able to hide past purchases from the front page of iBooks on iOS in the past.
    In case there was an issue with syncing I tried logging in and out of my iTunes account via settings in iOS. Force closing the app, disabling automatic downloads and removing my device from iTunes in the cloud. Syncing with iTunes on the mac did not correct the issue either.
    Interestingly I have the same issue on my iPhone 6 running iOS 8.3 as I do on my iPad mini suggesting that this might be an issue either with my account or with iOS iBooks software in general.
    If there is a way to remove the already hidden iBooks in your account from the front page of iBooks on iOS without using the hide iCloud downloads button? Please help community!
