Mass uninstall of CC apps

With the release of CC 2014 is there a way to do a mass uninstall of the original CC apps? I only see individual uninstallers in the app folders. This is not going to work for the 50+ creative systems I manage. I could do a terminal command but trying to avoid that if I can help it as I'm not sure if I'll get all the parts and pieces.

I've tried this out on the Mac mini I use for testing packages I build. rc46 is right. Though Adobe tells us to uninstall the applications before running the CC Cleaner tool, the tool does a great job of removing most of the existing applications that are on a system. In my test it left behind:
Acrobat Pro XI
ExtendScript Toolkit
Extension Manager
Fireworks CS6
Flash Builder 4.7
Gaming SDK
Muse CC 2014
Lightroom 5
Scout CC
(all but Lightroom and Scout have uninstall apps bundled with them)
Thanks for the tip, rc!

I had the same issue whilst trying to reinstall Facebook. Facebook hung on installing so I did a hard reset of the phone and got the Apple symbol which wouldn't go away. I did another hard reset which resolved the problem.
To do a hard reset hold down both the on/off and home buttons simultaneously. When the Apple logo appears release both buttons. Phone should eventually restart.

How do I uninstall SyncMate Server, Activity Monitor shows it still there after appzapper uninstall of SyncMate app? Killing in AM proceeds with a SyncMate Server startup again??

How do I uninstall SyncMate Server, Activity Monitor shows it still there after appzapper uninstall of SyncMate app? Killing in AM proceeds with a SyncMate Server startup again??
Mavricks, MacbookPro, typical config of everything and standard business user, no heavy graphics, animation or media editing. MS Office, web apps, etc.
I have the same issue with Logmein, which I installed a trial, uninstalled with appzapper, which I thought does a good job of untangling the components of apps but for these 2 it doesn't. Any help would be greatly appreciated.
Thx,

Usually applications like these have their own uninstallers, either build into the installer ( ! ) itself or as a separate uninstaller app. Check the site of the software provider for instructions.
Here's the instructions for SyncMate: http://wiki.eltima.com/user-guides/syncmate-mac-os/uninstall.html
And LogMeIn: http://help.logmein.com/SelfServiceKnowledgeRenderer?type=FAQ&id=kA030000000DGF1 CAO&kw=

Do I have to uninstall my trial apps for CC (expired) so that my daughter's subscription can begin? We both use the same computer.

It is always a good idea to uninstall before installing new, so the system registry entries are fresh

When having a subscription to Adobe CC you also should have the application Adobe Creative Cloud in you App folder. Use thi application to download and install Bridge CC again.

How to uninstall separate CC Apps

Hi folks....
Mac
Utilities
Adobe Installers
Uninstall

So how the heck can I uninstall individual CC apps not listed, like Scout CC
PLEASE make this simple and straight forward.
Adobe should work uninstall into the installer too.
In a related case, when I upgrade computers, how can I remove the entire suite so I can load onto new laptop.
Thanks.

How to uninstall all CS6 apps at once

Hi there
Since the update yesterday to Creative Cloud my InDesign CS6 crashes on startup. In the CC-aqpp I see both the CS6 and CC version. I can't uninstall all CS6 apps at once & make a fresh start with the CC version do I? I can only uninstall the apps individually. And that costs me a lot of time!
Anyone ideas or solutions? Thanks!

Hi Peter,
If CS6 is a suite like Design Standard CS6 then you can uninstall all the apps at once from Control panel>> Uninstall a program in Windows or Applications>> Utilities>> Adobe installers in Mac.
However, if the software's were stand alone then you would need to uninstall all of them once by once from the same locations mentioned above.
Thanks!

How do I uninstall a Firefox app?

Hi,
Just installed two apps on Firefox v 30 for Android and would like to delete them.
Pressing Menu -> Tools -> Apps shows currently installed apps. Tried to long-press an icon of an app but it only selects it and there is no option to delete it.
Would appreciate if the uninstall process was a bit more intuitive. ;)
Cheers.

Answering my question.
Although Firefox apps are installed using the browser interface, removing the app is similar to uninstalling an Android app. One should go to installed apps and long-press the icon of unneeded app until seeing a red cross on the top of the screen. Dropping the thing on the red saltire and confirming deletion will finish the process.

Properly uninstalling programs and apps?

just wondering if uninstalling programs and apps rquire further delving into subfolders and drives...?

Most residual files will be in ~/Library/Application Support/
If by 'most' you don't include any Apple Apps (Final Cut, DVD SP, iWork, iPhoto, Garageband, Logic) or Adobe apps or Virtualbox or anything with an installer …
A lot of apps also save files to /Library/Application Support or worse subfolders of /Library. It's not really somewhere a novice should be looking for files to delete.
Arthur's probably right about AppZapper, so long as you don't use it as a tool to 'free up some space'.

Uninstalling 3rd Party Apps

I'm new to Apple -- from Windows. I installed Firefox and would now like to uninstall it. How do I permanently uninstall 3rd party apps with the Apple?

Tucker
Welcome to the Discussions.There are several ways to uninstall Apps.
1. If the App comes with an uninstaller,use that.
2. If it has no uninstaller,just drag the App to the trash and empty the trash.
3. 3rd party Apps that claim to "completely" remove installed Apps.Unnecessary IMHO.

If you have 3rd party apps on a phone with 1.1.4, you must have a jailbroken phone. Discussion of those is heavily frowned on here. I recommend finding a forum that supports such phones.

If the iWork apps were not originally purchased from the App Store, i.e., you bought them on an iWork installer DVD, then the App Store has no record of the purchase. When updates are available for them, you'll get your updates through the Software Update application rather than through the App Store.
