Remove CC icon from status menu bar OS X Yosemite

How do I remove the Creative Cloud icon from the status menu bar in OS X Yosemite?
Apple allows me to command+drag their icons as I wish, and I can also control them via System Preferences.
Am I wrong, or is Adobe insisting on forcing this icon on my desktop?
Shouldn't the user have the ability to control what is and isn't showing on their screen? I know where my apps are, and I want a clean menu bar.

Hi Helpme2015,
I believe you have only trashed Adobe products from Applications. There is a slightly different procedure to remove Adobe products from MAC but since you have trashed the Applications already, we would have to follow the lengthy way around to remove the Adobe products now. Please follow the below mentioned steps and suggest.
1)      Delete all the Adobe folders available within /Library/Application Support/
2)      Delete all the Adobe folders available within /Library/preferences
3)      Delete all the Adobe folders available within ~/Library/Application Support/
4)      Delete all the Adobe folders available within ~/Library/Preferences/
5)      Delete files and programs from within Application & Utilities .
Cheers,
Kartikay Sharma

  • How do I remove the Adobe updater icon from the menu bar?

    How can I remove the Adobe Updater icon from the menu bar? It's pixelated and looks broken. Any help is appreciated.
    I found this thread, but it doesn't work. When I click on the Updater icon, then click "Open updater," it opens the Creative Cloud instead. I haven't found a way to remove the updater icon from within Creative cloud.
    Remove Adobe Updater from OS X menu bar?
    ^^ Doesn't work
    Anyone know how to remove it?
    Thanks!

    Found it, thanks to later posts in that thread I mentioned in the OP. Here is what they suggest (you have to use Photoshop):
    1. In Photoshop, go to Help >Updates:
    2. Click "Preferences" at the bottom right.
    3. Uncheck the box labeled "Notify me of new updates on the menu bar." Then click "Ok."
    Hope that helps anyone!

  • How do I remove the Box icon from the menu bar?

    I have an account on Box, which is a sync program.
    Before the last Box updated, I could hide its icon from the menu bar, but now it is not possible and I really don't want it there.
    I have tried to drag it out of there, by pressing CMD and dragging, but nothing happens.
    Is there any other way to remove it?
    Thanks in advance for any help, and sorry for the bad English.

    The problem is that I don't have the option to remove it anymore. And I don't want to uninstall it wither.
    Anyway... Thanks for trying to help me. I'll have to get used to it.
    Thank you again.

  • Hello. I've Apple TV 3rd gen and MacBook Pro 2013 all with latest updates. AirPlay works fine till I don't start streaming videos from YouTube. After that AirPlay icon from MacBook menu bar simply disappears. Could some help. I'm using 2 Mbps Internet

    Hello. I've Apple TV 3rd gen and MacBook Pro 2013 all with latest updates. AirPlay works fine till I don't start streaming videos from YouTube. After that AirPlay icon from MacBook menu bar simply disappears. Could some help. I'm using 2 Mbps internet connection.

    Same issue here- I can airplay my amazon prime library just fine from my iphone 5 but on my macbook- (mavericks, 15 inch 2013 retina with quad core i7, nvidia 650 M and SSD) it just sputters and lags.
    I have noticed web video is considerably worse than local content, giving me pauses of up to 2 or 3 seconds in which video stops but audio continues in the amazon player. Youku video, however, seems relatively stable. Our subscription speed is 25 mbps, so that should be plenty to stream SD video from Amazon and doesn't account for why it would be nice and stable from the iphone, but not the mbp.
    Playing light, locally hosted steam sidescrollers  like Limbo is better but gives periodic drops in framerate on the Tv. when mirroring the framerate remains steady on the MBP screen.
    Games airplayed from my iphone seem relatively stable, though with a noticably lower framerate on the TV than on the phone.
    It seems these issues have abated considerably since yesterday's Apple TV update, but are still curious nonetheless and I'm not sure that the update yesterday was specifically meant to address those issues or if I'm just getting a time with less network interference now.
    Comcast recently installed a new router/modem/phone combo, replacing our old separate modem and router setup. I'm going to test if putting the network on a different channel helps.

  • I want to Remove RSS icon from the address bar when I click on My SMF Forum

    I have a SMF forum when I click on the login page I see an RSS icon in the right of the address bar next to a star.
    The forum opens in an RSS to subscribe, which is stupid as it is not an RSS feed, it is a forum. I want to get rid of this and do not know how to do it.

    This is a feature of firefox, although it may have been removed from firefox 4beta ( at least in default set up, no idea why). The appearance of the RSS icon within the location bar is intended to inform that RSS feeds are available from the site in use. You may note that this firefox forum we are using has such an icon displaying in the location bar, that is because feeds are available allowing you to track the threads, no doubt something similar happens with the SMF forum you mention.
    If it is possible to remove the RSS icon from the location bar it will certainly not be straightforward, other than by upgrading to 4beta, and that is available now, and may be run whilst the stable version firefox 3.6 is still installed on your computer. (iirc there is an add-on available to add the rss icon to Fx4)
    If a post answers your enquiry, you may wish to use the button alongside it to mark it as solved.

  • How to remove icons from the menu bar

    Hi,
          I've read all the other ideas on how to remove or re-arange them ( CMD - drag off etc ), well none of this works for me !!
    I have a Macbook Pro running 10.6.7. So does anyone have any ideas please
    Steve

    Usually the apps belonging to these icons have an option that allows you to hide the Menu Bar icon by allowing them to run as an app in the dock. However, certain applications like Caffeine must show their icons as otherwise you wouldn't be able to access them.
    For example, Dropbox doesn't allow you to remove its menu bar icon:

  • Can't get rid of an app's icon from the menu bar (the app is already deleted)

    i deleted an app the old fashion way (1st drag it to the trash and 2nd empty trash). That App was Logmein. The problem is that now i have logmein's icon at my desktop's menu bar and can't get rid of it. Please help

    You didn't delete all the application, of course.  (There was an uninstaller, but I guess it's gone now.)  You could try a search with command F for all Logmein stuff, make sure to include system files in your search.  Maybe have a look in /Library/Application Support .
    This might help.

  • Gnome 3 (fallback): Remove integrated messaging from status menu

    Hi,
    I would like to know how to remove the speech balloon and the messaging entries from my status menu, like this:
    I don't use Empathy so it just looks annoying.
    Thanks.

    In the meantime I found the following:
    - When I suspend with the power button, the screen is locked, but not when I use the status menu option
    - This seems to be related to the screen setting 'Lock screen after'. I had it set to 1 minutes. When I change it to 'after the screen goes blank' the
      problem doesn't seem to occur.
    So, the way it looks now, it uses the same settings for delaying the locking the screen after the screensaver kicks in when locking the screen before suspend.
    Which doesn't make much sense. And then the behaviour is still inconsistent with the power button suspend.

  • Deleting icon from top menu bar

    couple days ago i tried using "bluestacks" an andriod app player for PC or Mac's
    in a couple hours trying it out i decided to delete it since it wasn't that usfull. but everytime i restart or turn on my MBA there is still "bluestacks" icon on the top menu bar beside "time" "battery" "wifi" "bluettoth" icons are....
    the weird thing is that i deleted the app with "app zapper" an app that deletes apps completely from Macs. but the icon still reminds at the top menu bar and still active...... active as in openable and sub-menus appear and able to press them...
    i can click on "quit" but restarting my MBA again it appears again
    is there anyway of getting rid of the icon?
    thanks

    Solved.
    Go to  > System Preferenes / Accounts / Login Items < select "uHD-Agent.app" (not by checking the hide checkbox, just click over it and highlihght it) then click on the minus sign at the bottom of the field. If you would like to confimr that this is Bluestacks' , just secondary click on it and > Reveal in finder < it will take you to > Library / Bluestacks App Player / Runtime < By doing this you don't delete it.
    At last...
    Regards !!!
    BTW This is on Snow Leopard, guess is similar on Lion...

  • How can I remove icons from the menu bar?

    Help tells me to hold down the command key and drag the icon off the bar. But all that happens is that a dropdown menu appears which lists various actions which can be performed by the application. None of the actions listed include deleting the icon. When I try to drag the icon (still holding the command key down) it does not move at all.
    I am running OS X 10.7.4.

    Do you mean the screen's menubar or the Finder's toolbar? Would you take a screen snapshot of what you are trying to remove? Some menubar icons are generated by the application and cannot be dragged out. Instead you have to quit the application that installs the item. I suspect this applies in your case.
