Just accidentally downloaded an unwanted program. how to delete it?

I am still adjusting from Windows to Mac. Let's say I just want to delete this program completely off my computer. But when I control click/right click on the icon and check the options, the only thing that is remotely close to delete is "eject." What do I do? What does eject do? Is there such thing as a recycle bin on a Mac? Thanks!

I believe you are talking about a Disk Image (the Mac equivalent of a .exe file) and as such not an installed program. Yes you can just select eject, or drag to the trash in the bottom right of your dock.
If you have installed the program and it is within your applications folder, the second option applies, simply drag to the trash bottom right of the dock.
Regards
Rowan

  • Dream Spark Programs downloaded for MBA program - How can I open them?

    Hi,
    I downloaded Visio and some other programs below for my class through Dream Spark. However, I cannot open the programs. I have a Office 365 Home account on my Windows 8.1 computer under an Outlook email address. When I try to switch the user to my student
    account I can't sign in. I have tried for several days.  Here is the screen I get and I can't get any further.  How can I open these programs?
    wo days now. See screen shot below.

    Hi,
    Look at the screen shot you added. Do you see the Account option on the left? You need to add your student account in that place. Once done you can start switching accounts. My guess would be that there is only one account available to choose from right
    now and that is your home account.

  • I bought an i pad as second owner, the first owner said he just open it but when i returned to my twon, i realized that he make account and download some programes, i lost the opportunity to download free I work programes how can i solve this problem

    i bought an i pad (4) on 2014 as second owner, the first owner said he just open it but when i returned to my town, i realized that he make account and download some programs, i lost the opportunity to download free I work programs how can i solve this problem?

    If you are trying to activate an iPad or iPhone and it is asking for the original owners Apple ID and password, you have encountered the Activation Lock. This is a security feature that prevents thieves from setting up and using a stolen or lost iPad or iPhone. You have no alternative. No must contact the original owner to get permission to use the device. If you cannot contact the original owner return the device to where you bought it and get a refund. You will never be able to activate the device and no one can help you do it.
    IF the iPad is working ok but is signed in to another users Apple ID use the Settings app to sign out of the old ID and sign in to your Apple ID.
    Settings > itunes and App Store > tap on the applie ID and sign out > sign in with your Apple ID.
    you should then be able to download or purchase apps using your Apple ID.

    HELP ME! I have just accidentally purchased a song on my iPhone that I didn't want. It has charged me, but the download has been paused. Is there anything I can do to stop it and get a refund?

    Only iTunes support can remove from your download queue, or you could just download it, then delete it. As far as a refund goes, plead your case:

  • I accidentally downloaded a website for coupons and its toolbar keeps popping up? I want to completely get rid of it on my internet. How do I do this?

    I accidentally downloaded a website for coupons and its toolbar keeps popping up at the top of my internet window. I went to the toolbar options and unchecked it but when I get back into the internet it is up again. I want it completely gone so that it doesn't even have a chance to be seen. I don't want it. How do I get rid of it?

    I would start off with Firefox's Add-ons page. Either:
    * Ctrl+Shift+a
    * orange Firefox button (or Tools menu) > Add-ons
    In the left column, click Extensions. Then look for unwanted extensions and try the Remove button.
    If the Remove button is missing, this usually means the extension was installed through the Windows installer. In that case, check for it in the Windows Control Panel, Uninstall a Program. Clicking the "Installed on" column header will bring the most recent additions to the top for easier spotting.
    After you get rid of it, assuming you can remove it in one of those two ways, I suggest "mopping up" with some malware removers. This article lists tools that other Firefox users have found helpful: [[Troubleshoot Firefox issues caused by malware]].
    Any luck?

  • How do I uninstall unwanted programs?

    Is there an easy way to quickly uninstall unwanted programs?
    A few months ago, I installed a program called Plaxo, but after a short while I decided I didn´t want to use it any more.
    The trouble is, it simply won´t go away!
    Every time I start up the computer, I get an info that there is a new upgrade for the program - how do I get rid of it?
    Kind regards
    Willi Prochnow Sletten

    If the application did not come with an uninstaller, I use a program like AppCleaner (free).
    It will usually delete .plist files and cache files that were installed with the Application. This is useful if you don't know where to look.
    Just dragging the App to the trash is often not enough as you may not be aware of all the support files that were installed in caches, preferences, application support.
    If I no longer have the disc image of the program, I will search for it on google, download the installer again and look for an uninstall option. If there isn't one, I use AppCleaner.

    That is interesting. Normally a bootmgr error message means that the boot loader is corrupt and hard disk not "dead".. Replacing the hard drive is a quickie shotgun method of resolving the issue.
    Did you give up on the SSD?
    The  desktop ( w/ASUS Crossfire V Formula-Z  mobo) I am using to type this, has the same SSD that you asked about. I used the method I described in the earlier post to clone the OS to the SSD. The SSD is the boot drive.
