Unable to uninstall pre-installed applications aft...

I'm unable to uninstall pre-installed applications after updated to Belle in N8, e.g. CNN, E!, KL traffic, Movie Teasers, Nat Geo, etc.
I noticed that it looks like those app with folder icon in application manager does not support to manual uninstall by user. (folder icon indicates pre-installed app??)
Application manager only prompt message : "Removing cancelled", and unable to uninstall these apps. Anyone facing this & is there any solution for this?
Phone model : N8
Firmware version : 111.030.0609 (Belle)

Hi skyee,
I need to remove some unwanted pre-installed applications to optimize my N8 to run smooth without lag. My N8 have some lagging when playing video, when access cuztomized folder via shortcut at homescreen (it take times to display those app in folder & this caused me launch wrong app very often), when access app via shortcut at homescreen (sometime need to press it twice to launch app, dont know why).
I can free up total 6.651Mb in my N8, if it is allowed to remove these unnecessary pre-installed app. This can speed up much more faster for N8.
Dont understand why those pre-installed applications cant be remove since they are unnecessary app & not holding the main/ must have feature in N8. I can understand some pre-installed app such as Ovi, Social that act as main/ must have feature in N8 to let user download app / social networking, but why those unnecessary app cant be remove?
Can give us some clues that why these pre-installed app cant be remove?
Can this be fixed in next firmware update?
Unnecessary app in my N8, total 6.651Mb :
1. CNN                 508kb
2. E!                     846kb
3. KL Traffic          603kb
4. Movie Teasers   534kb
5. Nat Geo            467kb
6. TV3 Catch Up    758kb
7. Virtual Malaysia 2Mb
8. 8TV Catch Up    935 kb

Lightroom 4.4 to Photoshop CS6, "Error: 1, please uninstall and install application again"

Dear all, I have a Problem to open some Files in Lightroom with the dialog "editing with Photoshop CS6". If I will do this with a RAW File, and Photoshop is not open I becomes the error Message "Error: 1, please uninstall and install application again".
If Photoshop open it works?! But when I will open any JPEG, TIFF or PSD File I have always this error message!
I have this Problem on my iMac after installation a SSD and create a Fusion Drive. MAC OS Version 1.8.3.
My attempt at a solution:
Uninstall and reinstall Lightroom 4.4. and delete the preferences "http://helpx.adobe.com/lightroom/kb/recover-catalog-images-resetting-lightrooms.html#id_90 046"
Uninstall and reinstall Photoshop CS6 (I use the Creative Cloud Version) and delete the Preferences "http://helpx.adobe.com/photoshop/using/preferences.html"
Nothing help
Have someone an Idea?
My Solution: I found the Problem, the Lightroom Katalog have a Problem. I must create a new one and the Problem was solved.

Is there a pre-installed application on the iMac that would allow me to crate documents, presentations and spreadsheets or do I have to buy iWork for this?

Thank you.

No pre-installed app that will do all that, and yes, you could buy iWork - or you could download the free (although they do seek donations) LibreOffice: http://www.libreoffice.org/ or OpenOffice: http://www.openoffice.org/porting/mac/

IPad 1 pre-installed applications shutting down just seconds after loading with no apparent reason

I've been using a second-hand iPad 1 running the highest available version of iOS for around a week now, but recently, when I wanted to use a preinstalled application they would load, but just around a second later I would be at the home screen again.
(I'm not really in the mood to explain deeper right now, I'll reply to any questions I'm asked...)

Is it just the pre-installed apps, or most all apps.
Try this - Reset the iPad by holding down on the Sleep and Home buttons at the same time for about 10-15 seconds until the Apple Logo appears - ignore the red slider - let go of the buttons. (This is equivalent to rebooting your computer.) No data/files will be erased. http://support.apple.com/kb/ht1430

Unfortunately, since these were pre-installed apps, you can't delete the app and re-download.

E51 - How to move pre-installed application from m...

Hi all,
I just purchased my E51 some days ago. The phone packaged with Advanced Call Manager pre-installed in microSD card. Now I want to use my 2gb microSD instead of 512mb from Nokia but I will lose the application if I take out the microSD card. How can I move that application from card to phone memory since I could not find the *.sis of that application.
Thanks in advance.

A new phone just includes the installers - you can choose whether to install on the phone or memory card.
However, you can still transfer the app to the newer memory card. Use a card reader, or connect your phone in "Data Transfer Mode", and copy ALL the content of the 512mb card to your computer - make sure that you include the hidden files too. Then copy over these files to your new memory card, again take care to copy the hidden files. That way, you will have the pre-installed software on your new memory card.

Hotkeys Alt+Ctrl+F1 - Alt+Ctrl+F5 - which pre-install application intercepts them

I used to use keys combination from Alt+Ctrl+F1 to Alt+Ctrl+F5 as hotkeys for certain application. But in my new Lenovo ThinkPad w530 with Windows 7 x64 I can not do it, as it seems, that some pre-installed software has registered these combination for itself. When I press them, absolutely nothing happens, but if I try to assign these combinations in my app, i get the error message, that they are already registered for some other application.
I've checked twice all installed applications, starting from Window 7 itself. Seems, that none of them uses these keys.
Well, I've tried than to stop virtually any software, incuding resident utilities, but this hotkyes are still busy
Is there any ideas, which piece of software pre-installed by Lenovo might reserve these combination for itself?
Or is there any way to detect, which application intercepts handling this keys?
Thanks in advance!

So what? Whether nobody has the same issue with occupied hotkeys or has no time to answer?
I suppose, that the problem is somehow connected to the package Intel Management and Security Status, which is pre-installed by Lenovo. But i could not find any option to change these default hotkeys or disable them at all.

Mac App Store Pre-Installed Applications

1. Will pre-App Store installed Applications be eligible for upgrade monitoring? My hunches tell me 'no,' but it would be nice.
2. I don't like the fact that Customer Reviews for an app is only available if you purchased it via the App Store. It would be nice if I could review apps that are recognized as "Installed" on my machine as well.
Thanks!

The App Store relies on the Bundle ID and the Version Number of your already installed Application to 'match' that of the version that is on the App Store.
So if one or both of these numbers is different, the App Store will not 'match' them and show you it is installed.
This will only come online, once the developer of the App makes there 'old' way of updating the same as the version they have supplied the App Store with, presumably, this will happen with time.
My example was Text Wrangler. It showed not installed even though it was on my computer, I did the update of the software the 'old' way and still not showing installed. Having a look, the developer updated me to version 3.2 the 'old' way, but had given the App Store version 3.5, so the version numbers were not matching. This being a Free app. I installed it from the App Store, it over wrote the 'old' install I had on my computer and once that was complete, the app Store showed it as installed.
So until the developers (including Apple developers) bring their 'old' updates inline with what they have supplied the App Store, they will not show up correctly on the Store.
That being said, nearly every Application has a 'check for updates' section and most of these can be set up to be automatically checking, so as long as the developers continue to support this 'old' style of updating, your apps will still stay current.

Uninstall pre-installed components such as Youtube

It might sound very strange, but I want to delete some of pre-installed components.
I know it's supposed to be a toy, but, I also want it to be a productivite tools and don't want to waste time browsing Youtube. How can I delete it. Would deleting the icon work? or delete it entirely.
I know I won't miss it.

No, you can't delete any of the pre-installed components. However, just because they are there doesn't mean you have to avail yourself of them.

Deleting Pre-installed Application

I am updated my BlackBerry Z3 OS into latest edition. After updating my OS I got many apps pre-installed. But I want to remove some of these apps. Is there any way to remove these apps?

There is no officially supported method for deleting or removing core apps.

Adobe Creative Cloud unable to find any installed applications

I was updating my Indesign CS6 DPS Tool via Creative Cloud Desktop last month. However due to some internet connection error it failed. Tried to update it again later but there is no updates anymore. Logout from CC Desktop Application and log back in, all my applications are gone. It is no longer listed in CC Desktop. I have mainly CS6 and one CC application on my mac.
I have tried the following and it all did not work.
1. Change Language Perf from North American to International
2. Delete opm.db file from OOBE folder
3. Uninstall and Reinstall CC Desktop
4. Run Adobe Creative Cloud Cleanup tool
Now i am trying to reinstall but all the programs return an error. Uninstallation Failed. Your uninstallation encounted errors. Only program I manage to uninstall is CreativeCloud Desktop but it also states there are a few errors. Is there any log file I can refer to? I have also notice in the cleanup tool there is no CS6 or CC programs listed. The programs are working fine but it just do not appear as installed in creative cloud and the clean up tool.
I was using mac os 10.8.5 but yesterday I had to send my notebook for repair and the harddisk was replace due to bad sectors and the os is upgraded to 10.9.2. I used migraion utility to restore my files.

THe product I have installed is CS6 Design and Web. So I have Illustrator, Indesign, Fireworks, Dreamweaver, Flash, Photoshop, Acrobat Pro installed. I also have several trials like After Effects CC, Audition CS6, Edge Animate, Premiere Pro installed.
Currently all adobe installations are working fine no problems and issues. In the individual program I can also check for updates. Check the update preferences in application manager and all my installations are listed too. Below is a list of stuff that is broken.
1. Creative Cloud Desktop do not list any applications installed. It thinks I have no program installed. Tried all the possible fixes listed on the internet such as chnaging language, delete OPM.db file, reinstall and nothing works.
2. Downloading any new software or existing software fail at 42%. Which is when the download completes and the software begins to install.
3. Using any uninstaller included with the programs listed above results in a adobe application manager error. (Uninstallation Failed) So far I could only uninstall creative cloud desktop, flash player, adobe air.
4. Using creative cloud cleaner tool also do not list any cs 6 or cc installation. only creative cloud desktop.
5. I have tried reinstalling over using a dvd and also using prodesigntools website direct download links to reinstall it will result in a adobe application manager installation fail error
So currently I have all my adobe programs working great, there is no way to uninstall unless I manually delete the files which I feel is too drastic action to take since everything is working fine. If I uninstall it manaually and I can't reinstall it back due to errors I won't have any adobe software for work.
This problems started after a fail update and after logging out of the creative cloud desktop.
Any solutions?

Edit your first post's Subject to be prefixed by [SOLVED]. I read through the whole thing, and realized it was fixed already.
Btw, I'm a newb as well.
So two lessons here. I just wanted to emphasis what I do in these circumstances.

You ran the "install.sh" provided from that site? How many dozen errors did it throw? It's got several debian-specific commands (apt-get, dpkg). That would completely fail.

+1 this. Before I run "any" script, I always open the script and inspect it. 99 out of 100 times, it is Debian-specific (aptitude's "apt-get" is a dead giveaway). In these cases, you are on your own to install it manually by reading each line in the script and executing it. Welcome to Arch (the same if you were installing on CentOS as well, since it was written for Debian).

Personally, I've started to lean onto the AUR process over manual installs. If it hasn't been "ported" to Arch via AUR, I've started to remove them from my toolbelt. Lightening the load, I guess you could say.
Until you get a lot more familiar that is.

N95-2: Cannot find pre-installed applications

Hi
I just purchased a N95-2 series phone. On my phone, the app manager shows Snakes, FIFA08 and asphalt 2 installed. However, these do not appear anywhere in n-gage games application.
Can someone tell me where I can find and access these games?
Many thanks

If this is the case, is there any way I can recover these applications? Or maybe delete them and reinstall from the phone itself?

Check if you have the latest Firmware on your Phone. You may do that thru' Nokia Suite . If any update is available do that, else you may re-install (refer the attachment) the existing firmware and see if the problem gets resolved.
If no change the you need to get the Firmware flashed at Nokia Care

Migrate from time machine backup without losing pre-installed applications?

I purchased a used mac mini A1283 that came with pre-loaded OSX Lion and iWork11 on the harddrive (no CDs/DVDs).
I have a "time machine backup" from a previous mac of mine running OSX Lion but without iWork11.
I would like to restore the time machine backup, but not lose iWork11. As it is my understanding and experience from 1 attempt already, if I use migration assistant, it creates a new user account with all of my old stuff, but unfortunatelty does not inherit the iWork11 applications from the main admin user account. What is the best way to marry all my old stuff (files, settings, etc.) with the new iWork11 apps?
Thanks,
DC

If all your apps are in the top-level Applications folder, all users have access to them.
If you already have files associated with those apps in a different user account, you can transfer them to a different account. See Transferring files from one User Account to another. As noted there, that's fairly easy for some types of data, somewhat harder for others.

after updating c6-01 to nokia belle my some preindtalled application like calendar, photo editor, messege reader and new application video editor not opening.what is the use of the phone if these must application is not there, pls help

Hi!
We are still investigating this topic. If you still have issues, you could consider to reset your phone to factory settings (and taking a backup before to not lose your personal content).
What would be helpful for us would also be to know, what other applications you have running on your phone.
Thanks in advance!
BR,
yvonne
