Remove it from my computer??

Please explane to me how to uninstall a program I downloaded SCYPE and for the life of me cannot remove it from my computer?? Thank You in advance for your help! Ed

not sure about those particular apps but most apps that use installers put other stuff on your computer besides the application itself. they often install launch daemons, startup items, preference panes and other stuff. to get them out cleanly it's best to use uninstallers. you usually can also do it by hand by searching them out using spotlight but that can be tricky.

  • How can I remove malware from my computer?

    I can't go to google mail page. I can't search words with any browser because nothing happen. I think it is malware. I tried spy bot-SD. But no result. Please tel me how can remove malware from my computer.

    Try running malwarebytes, if that doesn't work.
    Simply restore your system to the checkpoint before this happened. It's easy, On Windows 7, I just had to do it to get rid of the rogue program 'Antimalware Doctor'. Go to Start > ALL Programs > Accessories > System Tools > System Restore click next and select the restore point prior to the time the infection occurred. Mine took only 5-7 minutes to run.
    If you don't have Windows 7, you still can get to the System Restore by finding the location of your Accessories, normally System Restore is under this.

  • My macbook pro is infected with VBS.Lys.M.  Unfortunately, bitdefender can only quarantine it and it keeps reappearing.  Is there any way to remove it from my computer?

    My macbook pro is infected with VBS.Lys.M.  Unfortunately, bitdefender can only quarantine it and it keeps reappearing.  Is there any way to remove it from my computer?

    That's Windows malware, so it cannot be infecting your Mac. It probably is on your computer as an email attachment. To remove it, see:

    Also, note that BitDefender is pretty bad at detecting Mac malware. I would recommend removing it. See my Mac Malware Guide for more information about protecting yourself from malware:

    I am currently using the adobe cloud service and would like to give my granddaughter my original lightroom and photoshop programs.  Would do I need to do to remove them from my computer to hers?  The lightroom 5 program has been replaced with the cloud version on my computer.

    Follow the steps listed at  Transfer an Adobe product license
    Lightroom has no activation check so you don't need to do anything to your computer. Your old copy of Photoshop must be deactivated / uninstalled if you haven't already done so.

  • HT204025 Can I remove files from my computer without removing them from iCloud?

    Can I remove files from my computer without removing them from iCloud?

    Reason I'm asking: I did move a folder over, and then went to iCloud.com, and looked in that folder, and it said it was empty. Thanks
    When you move a folder to iCloud Drive, it will upload the contents of this folder to iCloud Drive, but it may take a long tome, even for small items. You may see progress bars, while the contents is uploading.  And the folder may look empty, until it will be updated from iCloud.  For example - shortly after adding the folder "neueBilder" to iCloud Drive.

  • Had to remove itunes from my computer to reset the computer. Now I'm having problems syncing my iphone with the computer. Computer is saying it wants to download updates to the phone but that will delete things I downloaded straight from the phone. Help!

    Had to remove itunes from my computer to reset the computer. Now I'm having problems syncing my iphone with the computer. Computer is saying it wants to download updates to the phone but that will delete things I downloaded straight from the phone. Help!

    iTunes thinks you have a new computer because you restored the OS. Open iTunes and authorize it to the same account you have on the iPhone. Did you restore your iTunes content from a backup after resetting your computer? Have you been syncing regularly with the computer, and does the iTunes library on the computer contain your apps, music and videos? If so just sync and your content will be removed then restored.
    If you have not hopefully you have now learned something. You can recover apps and purchased songs by connecting the phone, without syncing, and choose "Transfer purchases..." from the File menu.

    and when i get to the add/remove programs menu from control panel, itunes begins to uninstall, stops, and then just goes right back to the add/remove program menu and is still there. nothing happens.
    is there any other way i can fully remove itunes from my computer.

  • How to remove eprint from my computer

    I want to remove eprint from my computer. I accidentally downloaded it and now I can't print anything! THIS IS REALLY FRUSTRATING!!!! 

    @eprintsucks 
    I am sorry to hear of the issues you had with our HP ePrint Software driver however the p1006 LaserJet printer is not supported with this software.
    To uninstall this software:
    1. Go to your control panel. (modern desk top or tiles screen and start typing control panel)
    2. Go to Programs > uninstall a prggram
    3. Locate HP ePrint Software
    4. Click unstall, ether by right clicking on the the program or going to the top of the list and click unstall program
    These steps should completely remove it from your system.
    I am an HP employee.

  • Babylon addon installed without my consent. I want to completely remove it from my computer, but how ?

    I was trying to take a download but MediaGet and Babylon appeared to self install. I have removed most of these but the
    Babylon addon can only be disabled. I wish to remove it from the computer altogether, and cannot see how.

    Thanks for that, but after I tried it I still had files and a folder on my system which linked to Babylon. Eventually I had to search the registry, which I am never happy about. It is all cleared now.
    Incidentally I do use Revo Uninstaller which usually does a great job.

  • When i go to sycn my ipod, it says that it cannot sync due to a missing file. Is there a way to remove itunes from my computer and redownload it without losing all of my stuff?

    Can I remove Itunes from my computer totallty abnd reinstall it without losing my media?

    Do a backup of your iTunes library files first to a external hardisk. (ie all your music files)
    Go to this Apple download for iTunes 9.2.1,
    http://support.apple.com/kb/DL1056
    You just need to download and re-install.
    If your iTunes is earlier than 9 series, the library folder location need to be changed.
    or let me know your iTunes version and I sent you the website
    I wouldn't recommend the Latest iTunes 10.5.2, if you are not using iPod Classic 160GB late 2009 version.
