Remove a USB from a MacBook Pro

Hi,
Can someone help me please. I can't remove a USB from MacBook Pro because I don't see it on the desktop and does appear in the Finder.
Thanks.

Remove the USB drive.  Open Terminal and type 'diskutil list'.  You should see something like this:
/dev/disk0
   #:                       TYPE NAME                    SIZE       IDENTIFIER
   0:      GUID_partition_scheme                        *500.1 GB   disk0
   1:                        EFI                         209.7 MB   disk0s1
   2:                  Apple_HFS Macintosh HD            499.2 GB   disk0s2
   3:                 Apple_Boot Recovery HD
Now insert the USB drive.  Type 'diskutil list' again.  Do you see something different, e.g. /dev/disk1, that didn't appear the first time?  This will tell you whether the drive is mounting or not.

  • How can I totally remove GoPhoto.it from my MacBook Pro?

    Hello!
    How can I totally remove the malware program GoPhoto.it from my MacBook Pro? I am desperate to get some help on this issue.
    Somehow, the malware GoPhoto.it downloaded itself to my computer. A few days ago in a desperate attempt to delete the program, I followed some instructions that I found online. I deleted the "supposed" file from the "Application Support" folder, but the program continues to plague my laptop! Please help, as I just got this computer a few months ago and would like to make it last as long as possible!
    Blessings and thanks in advance!
    Elizabeth

    Hi, I have the same problem occurred to lizholmes, and:
    -  I have been able to remove GoPhoto.it it from extensions in Safari.
    - The MAC now seams to switch off normally.
    What is still on the Dock is Mac_installer icon. I'm not able to remove it.
    Any suggestions?
    Thx

  • How can I remove Windows XP from my MacBook Pro?

    I've tried everything I can find to get rid of Windows XP on my MacBook Pro.  I have OS X 10.5.8 and, unlike later versions, BootCamp Assistant 2.0 doesn't allow the option to restore the disk.  And I can't find an update to BootCamp anywhere that will work. Seems I need Snow Leopard to upgrade to 3.0.

    Boot Camp has an option to remove the Windows partition provided you made the partition with Boot Camp and did not later modify it or create a third-partition on the drive.
    This may work:
    Open Disk Utility, select your drive in the sidebar, then click on the Partition button in the DU main window.  Select the Windows partition by clicking in the Windows rectangle of the partitions display.  Click on the Delete [-] button to remove the partition then click on the Apply button.  Wait for DU to either complete the operation or error out.  If DU removes the partition then click on the partition sizing gadget (lower right hand corner) on the main partition and drag all the way to the bottom to fill the gray space left from removing the Windows partition.  Click on the Apply button and wait until the operation is completed.
    If you get errors at either of the two procedures then that means the drive's RDB has been damaged or altered.  In this case backup the drive, boot from the backup, erase the drive, then restore the backup.

  • Adobe Updater not working and/or removing the Icon from a MacBook Pro?

    I purchased CS5 -Design standard for my MacBook Pro a few years ago and have never had a problem until recently. I put a new hard drive into my laptop and reinstalled everything. CS5 programs run fine when I'm using them. Now all of a sudden, I'm getting an icon on my top MAC menu bar from Adobe Updater saying I need to update all of my programs. It will not go away. I follow all the steps, it completes the download then says there are errors and the downloads cannot be completed, to close and try again. I've done this 5 times over 2 weeks with no luck. If there are updates I'd really like to install them or just shut the updater down so that I can't see the icon on my menu bar.
    It does not give me an option to enter serial numbers from the CS5 I purchased or to just close the thing and move on with my life. What do I do? All this is running on a MacBook Pro, CS5-Design standard.
    Icon on Menu Bar
    I open it to see Adobe Updater wants me to update a bunch of programs
    I hit the update button- downloading starts and completes to 100%
    Now all of the updates are errors downloading- with no options but to close and try again.

    update manually:  http://www.adobe.com/downloads/updates/

  • Removing Windows 8 from my MacBook Pro?

    Hello,
    I currently have windows eight installed on my partition. I want to uninstall it so I will be able to run it with parallel desktop. Parallel currently does not support Windows 8 from Bootcamp.
    My question is in order to erase windows 8 what format should I click on? As shown in the screenshot. It was originally highlighted on the last selection ( windows) however, it will not give me the option to erase.
    Thanks,
    Jonathan

    Use Boot Camp Assistant to remove the partition, your disc will be returned to as it was before the partition was made, do not use Disk Utility.

  • How can I remove the ifunbox from my MacBook Pro?

    I accidentally downloaded and installed the ifunbox and now I can not remove it. How can I get rid of it? Thank you.

    You may have already found your answers but if not, you simply use your finder. Select 'Applications' on the side. Then find the iFunbox icon and drag it to your trash bin. Give it a few seconds and then check your launchpad. I should be gone. I had the same problem and got very frustrated at the fact that I couldn't remove it through the launchpad, as I do other apps. Hope this helped, that is if you still needed it.

  • How do i fully remove an app from my macbook pro?

    I understand you can drag the app to the trash..but that doesnt fully remove all its components into the trash. How do i fully remove it???

    Some apps leave other files behind and some are all self contained in the Applications folder. If there are files outside the Applications folder than the app should of come with an uninstaller or on the Software Vendor's Website in which they may have instructions on how to uninstall it. If you're talking about a programming app or an app that makes files like i.e. the Documents folder or the VIdeos folder than those are meant to be there because they have your personal data in them. If you don't mind me asking what app(s) are you having trouble removing?
    Good Luck; Hope this Helps -
