Knowing what Applications are installed

Hi,
Coming from Windows I find it difficult to find out what applications are installed on my mac. I know I can just look in the Applications folder but I am going to be upgrading to Leopard later this week and before then I would like an easy way of listing and printing off all my currently installed applications so after the Leopard upgrade I can test out what does not work and if there's no Leopard version of an app. I can uninstalled if it's not a necessity.
Any help is appreciated.
Thanks.

HI erugalatha,
Since you are coming from Windows, FYI, where in Windows you use the Control Panel to install or uninstall programs, on a Mac, to delete an application, just drag the application folder to the Trash, then empty the Trash. Simple as that.
Also, here's a link to more information about Universal and Mac downloads:
Universal and Mac
And, after you install Leopard, always a good idea to run Disk Utility from the Applications/Utilties folder and Repair Disk Permissions. Here is how to do that:
In Disk Utility, select the disk in the list. Click First Aid.
Click Verify Disk Permissions to test permissions or Repair Disk Permissions to test and repair permissions.

  • How to know what soft are installed?

    Hi guys,
    His someone can tell me how I can know which soft are installed on my Solaris 10.
    I look on the process but with the result I cannot see those which are not running.
    I look in /usr/... but I'm a bit lost.
    Can someone can help??
    Thanks

    At the command line type :
    pkginfo
    This will give a list of all packages
    You can send this list to a file:
    pkginfo > filename
    You can then view the file with text editor or at the command line one screen at a time:
    cat filename | more

  • How to know what reports are running by looking at SSReproting Services to see what reports are running and also any clue of which application is using the reporting services?

    How to know what reports are running by looking at SSReproting Services to see what reports are running and also any clue of which application is using the reporting services?

    To see what reports are running, take a look at the execution log views that are available in the database.  Which views that are available are dependent on your version of SSRS.
    http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/ms159110.aspx
    To see which application is using SSRS is a little more difficult.  You can turn HTTP logging on, which will give you an idea of where connections are coming from, so you can see IP addresses.  You can also look at the execution log view to see
    user accounts.  So, depending on your environment and use of service accounts, this could be easy, or difficult.
    http://technet.microsoft.com/en-us/library/bb630443.aspx
    If all else fails you can look for clues in the SSRS logs.  Good luck...

  • Is there ANYONE in BT who knows what they are talk...

    I switched from Virgin to BT joining BT on 02/11/2013, on that day I phoned up and spoke to a representative about keeping my old number. I was told this is no problem and it will automaticaly be done. Few days went by and I had no confirmation, I have now possibly been speaking to 30 different representatives, who all told me a different story, one told me that it is categoricaly in no way possible to keep a Virgin number on BT lines, I spoke to Virgin who is still keeping the number open for BT to port but they have had no communication from BT regarding this, I have spoken to Managers, Supervisors from Scotland to Manila, then finaly the email came we are changing your number to (the number I requested to keep from Virgin) with a follow up email to say "Where all done" Brilliant I thought, I rang my old Virgin Nmber only to find it is not ringing on my BT line, so I checked on MyBT, to find that BT successfully changed my number to a number which I did not request, who knows where they sucked that number from. So back to the rigmaral toing and froing, I think I must have spent at least 60 hours of my time to try and find someone who can help me to date I have not received any calls from a manager who I can discuss this farse! 
    So on 28/11/2013 the engineers came to install, he was digusted when I explained the whole story and told me this should have been done prior to instalation. So more hours spent in trying to get someone who know what they are talking about, emails, chats and calls, but nothing. Then last night finaly someone who was prepared to take some action and get this sorted great I thought now it will be done, BUT NO!!!!! tonight I get a call saying that I can not keep the number because it is at a different exchange, keeping in mind that Brierly Hill who my BT number is with is in Stourbridge and this is where I live and have been for the past 8 years, so I can not keep a number that is in the same house, the person kept telling me that this ca not be given to me at my new address and the more I explained I have not moved house and that Brierly Hill is in Stourbridge my line is an 01384 area code and the number I want is 01384, so I asked him to renumber me to a BT number in the Stourbridge exchange so that my Virgin number can be ported but this was obviously not in his grasp, I just can not believe that Virgin has been more helpful about this and that BT believes themselves to be so big that a simple request and these are the only words "I would like to keep my Virgin Number 01384 xxxxx" How can such a simple request turn into such a horible mess, so if there is actualy anyone who knows what they are talking about could they please contact me, surely I am not the only person to switch from Virgin to BT requesting to keep their number, I just wish I could afford the £600.00 I was toldI will have to pay if I cancelled my account immediately, well I guess 18 Months is not that long, then I will be free from the most ignorant organisation I have ever had the displeasure to have dealt with and I will post this on every forum I can find to warn off people who are thinking of joining BT, Virgin Sucks but be assured BT is multitudes worse!!!!!

    So I was told last night that the "Special Cases Team" will be contacting me today, have they HECK NO!!!! does a team like that actually exist? My guess is probably not! So I will try and forget about it for tonight and then tomorrow I will try and contact someone in this mysterious department, the one that deals with such complex issues as "I am moving from Virgin Media, I would like to keep my Number" This is such a complex request that it take a "Special Cases Team", well that is if it actually exists, to deal with such a case. So I now understand that my Virgin Number exists in the Stourbridge Telephone Exchange, so my question to BT Management is why allocate me a number from the Brierly Hill Exchange, when it quite a simple check, there are several websites that will tell you what exchange your number originates from, and when I asked this simple request to keep my number. I was told that BT can not give me that number at the Stourbridge Exchange because of my address, so my question is how on earth can Virgin allocate me a number at the Stourbridge exchange for the same address where I lived for the past 8 years? Well I am getting tired of this situation, but I will not give up until this is resolved, so let us see how long BT will leave me with a perfectly useless phoneline and how many more important appointments I will miss because, even I am not sure what number I have now, afterall BT has only been notified on 02/11/2013, not bad handling of a simple request he, and to date not one customer relations member of staff could be bothered to contact me, never mind a manager, mind you do those actually exist or are they working on how to cause most headaches for new customers and ensure that they cancel their contract at the soonest possible date!

  • How do i see what applications are running in the background

    My iMac is running very slow my operating system is OS X Yosemite Version 10.10.2 with a 2.5 GHz Intel Core i5 Processor. How do I see what applications are running in the background?

    Reinstalling OS X Without Erasing the Drive
    Boot to the Recovery HD: Restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the COMMAND and R keys until the menu screen appears. Alternatively, restart the computer and after the chime press and hold down the OPTION key until the boot manager screen appears. Select the Recovery HD and click on the downward pointing arrow button.
    Reinstalling OS X Without Erasing the Drive
    Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions: Upon startup select Disk Utility from the main menu. Repair the Hard Drive and Permissions as follows.
    When the recovery menu appears select Disk Utility and press the Continue button. After Disk Utility loads select the Macintosh HD entry from the the left side list.  Click on the First Aid tab, then click on the Repair Disk button. If Disk Utility reports any errors that have been fixed, then re-run Repair Disk until no errors are reported. If no errors are reported click on the Repair Permissions button. Wait until the operation completes, then quit Disk Utility and return to the main menu.
    Reinstall OS X: Select Reinstall OS X and click on the Continue button.
    Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet if possible because it is three times faster than wireless.
    Alternatively, see:
    Reinstall OS X Without Erasing the Drive
    Choose the version you have installed now:
    OS X Yosemite- Reinstall OS X
    OS X Mavericks- Reinstall OS X
    OS X Mountain Lion- Reinstall OS X
    OS X Lion- Reinstall Mac OS X
         Note: You will need an active Internet connection. I suggest using Ethernet
                     if possible because it is three times faster than wireless.

  • At UC platform i can see some applications are installed on Windows server and some directly to VMWare. Pls explain?

    At UC platform i can see some applications are installed on Windows server and some directly to VMWare. Pls explain?

    Pretty much all newer versions of UC applications have started supporting virtualization so they can be installed on the VMware. 
    Have a look at dockwiki for virtualization supported apps:
    http://docwiki.cisco.com/wiki/Unified_Communications_Virtualization_Supported_Applications
    Some applications like CUCM version 4 were windows based previously but going ahead with version 5, 6 onwards the OS has been changed to Linux Operating system.
    Let me know if you need any more information.

    Do a search at the App Store, there may be an app for this.  If the videos are flash and you don't find a special app that displays the video on an iPad, then there isn't a way to view the shows.  iPad does not support flash.

    Welcome to the Apple Community Tarskforce.
    Intermittent problems are often a result of interference. Interference can be caused by other networks in the neighbourhood or from household electrical items.
    You can download and install iStumbler (NetStumbler for windows users) to help you see which channels are used by neighbouring networks so that you can avoid them, but iStumbler will not see household items.
    Refer to your router manual for instructions on changing your wifi channel or adjusting your multicast rate.
    There are other types of problems that can affect networks, but this is by far the most common, hence worth mentioning first. Networks that have inherent issues can be seen to work differently with different versions of the same software. You might also try moving the Apple TV away from other electrical equipment.
    The following article(s) may help you.

    my total library is 680 mb, nowhere close to the 2.08 in the pictures folder. I am obviously messing up.
    Actually you’re not.
    The iPhoto Window reports the size of the library that would result if you exported all the current versions +and nothing else+ to a folder on the desktop.
    The iPhoto Library Folder contains the Original, Modified and thumbnail versions of your pics. It also contains various cache and database files +all of which are necessary+ for the working of the Library.
    Don't change anything in the iPhoto Library Folder via the Finder or any other application. iPhoto depends on the structure as well as the contents of this folder. Moving things, renaming things or otherwise making changes will prevent iPhoto from working and could even cause you to damage or lose your photos.
    You can run a Library on an external disk:
    1. Quit iPhoto
    2. Copy the iPhoto Library Folder as an entity from your Pictures Folder to the External Disk.
    3. Hold down the option (or alt) key while launching iPhoto. From the resulting menu select 'Choose Library' and navigate to the new location. From that point on this will be the default location of your library.
    4. Test the library and when you're sure all is well, trash the one on your internal HD to free up space.
    Regards

  • What application are you using for student collaboration?

    The only part that is missing from iTunes University is real time student collaboration. What application are you using to bridge the gap? Thanks, Ed

    Yeah, I'm not sure I know what you mean either. 
    Q:  If you're asking which server-side code to use on Windows IIs Servers?
    A:  ASP or ASP.net and MSSql.  Since Microsoft built these languages, you would get the best support from MS Expression.
    If you're asking for software that helps you write code, you'll need to be more specific about which code you want to write and for what purpose.

    I did checked the earphone there same time and found that I can't lower or high the volume from that new purchased earphone and even asked why and one of your senior staff said it might be the problem of my ipod shuffle's setting, Since the beginning of the time of purchase till I came to Nepal 4 days ago I didn't use the ipod because I'm not able to increase the volume and I didn't took my laptop with me while my visit there ...
    But when I try to restore my shuffle here ; even that doesn't works ... Today and yesterday when I checked my friend's earphone of ipod - it was working on my shuffle and my earphone also working in his classic ...

  • How do I determine what applications are communicating using SMB?

    I would like to try to determine if there is a way to determine what applications are using SMB to communicate to the network. Any thoughts?

    Thanks Kurt. We are attempting to find the cause of the notorious two-minute spinning beachball delay. Not sure if you are aware of this problem, but it holds up Finder, Adobe InDeisgn, and other applications for two minutes while it is waiting for a response from a windows server. It shows in the log as:
    1/4/12 3:29:25 PM
    kernel
    smb_iod_sendall: Timed out waiting on the response for 0xa0 mid = 0x3b
    Very frustrating. While Lion seems to have fixed the issue for some users, EMC is telling us that Lion will not play nice with the Celerra share we use.
