Uninstall from Mac

Can someone tell me how to uninstall Adobe Reader 11.0.06 from my Mac (OS 10.8.5)? All my PDFs downloaded from Safari 6.1.2 are opening in Reader and I don't want them to.

I found the plug-ins, Test Screen Name, thank you! I was in my user library and apparently that was incorrect. I've gotten rid of the plug-ins.
MichaelKazlow, thank you, also.

How to Uninstall from Mac OS?

I've just used Adobe Connect 6.5 for the first time
on Mac OS 10.4. It's a disaster for two reasons: first, I was
unable to share anything; each time I tried the system crashed.
More importantly, the installer seems to have hidden
something on my disk that brings up my Mac in grayscale mode. I
tossed the two connection files in the trash, I've checked system
preferences, but I can't find what Adobe did to my system.
I want to uninstall this software, undo the damage it's done,
and return my MacBook to its previous working condition.

Well, that's pretty clear. The problem is that Adobe
enables but does not cause the error.
Symptoms: after log in and password, the Mac suddenly changes
from color to greyscale. I did as complete an uninstall as I could
by searching for "connect" and removing files and directories
related to "connect65."
However, when Adobe installed the "sharing" plugin, it takes
me to the "Universal Access" system preference panel; it told me to
enable Universal Access. While that panel was open I managed to
accidentally check the "grayscale" checkbox on the display page.
So this isn't strictly an Adobe error. It's more of an
"enabling" error, in that Adobe didn't tell me which checkbox to
check on the panel and I managed to hit the wrong one on the away
to the right one.

Premiere Elements 9 - can't uninstall from Mac

I have adobe premiere elements 9. I have 2 copies on mac and one on pc. I have had issues with one mac and have tried to deactivate or uninstall. I have opened a project to access deactivate and get an error. I have tried to uninstall with adobe uninstall and get a message to download and run the cleaner tool and am still unable to deactivate or uninstall. I can't reinstall and uninstall because the DVD player is not working. I rang phone support to be informed that there is no longer phone support for this version. Can anyone help me please as I need to install on the new computer

With one license you can have 2 installs normally. I have one PREL9 on Mac and one on my PC laptop.
When my PC crashed 3 months ago, I had the same issue as I wanted to uninstall the Vista install and
the PC had crashed. So I contacted the support by chat (I am in Europe), and they verified my license number then
modified temporarely their database to allow me to install PREL9 on my new laptop.
Things worked fine. I encourage you to try this way to solve your problem.

I have Adobe Photoshop Elements 10 and Adobe Premier 10 loaded on a Dell PC. Do I need to uninstall from the Dell before I install on a recently purchased Apple Mac Pro? There are separate disks for Mac and PC in the package.

Generally, it's ok to install on two machines as long as they are both yours and you only use one version at a time.
BTW, this is the forum for Adobe Contribute.

How to uninstall Virtual PC from mac Lion?

Hi,
I installed a Virtual PC (7 version) machine on my mac system yesterday but I found it cannot work because the compatible issue, my system is OS X mountain lion. It is always saying "Power PC applications are no longer supported". Now what I want is just uninstall Virtual PC from my mac and I do not want to bother using it. Because what bothers me is that the panel show in the Finder is not like previously shown. There are not the left favoraties column shown any more. I cannot go to the right folder to see files and it create so big trouble! I just want everything back. Another thing is that everytime when it starts up, there will be a box pop up saying like "the virtual machine cannot start up because the setting is not right" things like this. I guess the Virtual PC disorder some settings in OS X system.
So I only want to unistall this Virtual PC. I guess it can not be remove by just simpy delete the icon in applciations, am I right? I find the "Uninstal Virtual PC" icon in the dmg package, but when I dounble click it, it also shows "You can't open the application "Uninstal Virtual PC" because PowerPC applications are no longer supported"! which drives me crazy. Does anyone know about how to uninstall Virtual PC from mac for this situation? I appreciate your help.
Thanks,
Amanda

I just followed the instructions and clicked contunue. I guess I just finished part 1, the installing part. The details are:
section 1: installing virtual PC
section 2: setting up virtual PC
section 3: setting up windows
In Section 1 you will install the Virtual PC for Mac application and supporting files. You will need to restart your computer at the end of Section 1.
Section 2 covers personalizing Virtual PC for Mac and the installation of Windows.
In Section 3, you will configure Windows."
I clicked continue to let it install (section 1). After that, Mac restarted and it never asked me to set up virtual PC. All the problems aboved mentioned came up afterwards.
Did I do anything wrong?
Thanks.

If i uninstall windows 8.1 from my macbook pro, will i lose all the data from mac partition as well?

if i uninstall windows 8.1 from my macbook pro, will i lose all the data from mac partition as well?

Depends on how you do it
If you create a partition with Boot Camp and format that partition correctly
Then install Windows your data should not be touched
If you do anything wrong or there is any mishap during the whole procedure you could lose everything
Hence the reason I suggest that you backup first

Mac App Store keep request for update an application that I already uninstall from my MBP?

I updated my mbp to 10.6.6 which come with mac app store. I was so happy to get myself some apps there. eg: DropCopy (free) and some games of course. After given some try, i decided to uninstall DropCopy from my mbp, and also the related .plist files. Few weeks later, when DropCopy come with an update, i found that there are an update notification from mac app store. I've tried to update then uninstalled it again, the update notification still there! I've write an e-mail to the developer, they replied that's a bug come from mac app store and they can't do anything to solve that. So i decide to wait for an update from Apple. When it come with an update to 10.6.7, I get my mbp updated for sure. However, the problem still there! The mac app store still appear an update of DropCopy even I've already uninstall it from my mbp. How can i solve it or remove the update notification?

iTunes is currently having problems in reference to the apps. If you have icloud, then toggle contacts off/on. If not then restore from itune backup

Uninstalling Software: The Basics
Most OS X applications are completely self-contained "packages" that can be uninstalled by simply dragging the application to the Trash. Applications may create preference files that are stored in the /Home/Library/Preferences/ folder. Although they do nothing once you delete the associated application, they do take up some disk space. If you want you can look for them in the above location and delete them, too.
Some applications may install an uninstaller program that can be used to remove the application. In some cases the uninstaller may be part of the application's installer, and is invoked by clicking on a Customize button that will appear during the install process.
Some applications may install components in the /Home/Library/Applications Support/ folder. You can also check there to see if the application has created a folder. You can also delete the folder that's in the Applications Support folder. Again, they don't do anything but take up disk space once the application is trashed.
Some applications may install a startupitem or a Log In item. Startupitems are usually installed in the /Library/StartupItems/ folder and less often in the /Home/Library/StartupItems/ folder. Log In Items are set in the Accounts preferences. Open System Preferences, click on the Accounts icon, then click on the LogIn Items tab. Locate the item in the list for the application you want to remove and click on the "-" button to delete it from the list.
Some software use startup daemons or agents that are a new feature of the OS. Look for them in /Library/LaunchAgents/ and /Library/LaunchDaemons/ or in /Home/Library/LaunchAgents/.
If an application installs any other files the best way to track them down is to do a Finder search using the application name or the developer name as the search term. Unfortunately Spotlight will not look in certain folders by default. You can modify Spotlight's behavior or use a third-party search utility, Easy Find, instead. Download Easy Find at VersionTracker or MacUpdate.
Some applications install a receipt in the /Library/Receipts/ folder. Usually with the same name as the program or the developer. The item generally has a ".pkg" extension. Be sure you also delete this item as some programs use it to determine if it's already installed.
There are many utilities that can uninstall applications. Here is a selection:
AppZapper
Automaton
Hazel
CleanApp
Yank
SuperPop
Uninstaller
Spring Cleaning
Look for them at VersionTracker or MacUpdate.

How to uninstall on Mac for customUpdateUI and disable Updater.update()?

Hi there,
I am getting a strange behavior on the Mac and see if anyone
has similar issue.
First, I deployed a
"version 1" application and installed on the machine with
customeUpdateUI=true, when the app install, it will attempt
to update using
Updater.update() in the following manner,
quote:
private function runUpdate(updatePath:String):Boolean {
if (!updatePath)
return false;
var file:File = new File(updatePath);
if (!file || !file.exists)
return false;
var updater:Updater = new Updater();
updater.update(file, "version 2");
return true;
Then I repeat the step above for
"version 2" and everything is working great. The update is
working fine on Windows and on Mac. (This code is for demo only, I
didn't hardcode the version # in the app. ;)
The problem I have is re-install.
On Windows, if you uninstall "version 1", then install
"version 2", works great
On a
Mac, if you uninstall "version 1", then install "version 2"
fails, error message for "version mismatch".
It seems there is still something left behind on the Mac when
uninstall the app, such that when I launch "version 2" install, it
is still attempting to run update from the local installed app,
rather than the update from the new installed .air file.
Anyone have similar issue? How to uninstall an AIR app on the
Mac? Do I just trash the App directory, or do I need to perform
additional clean up?
Besides trashing the app directory, I also tried to delete
anything suggest to me is Adobe AIR related info, including,
/User/Library/App Support/Adobe
/User/Library/Preferences
/Library/App Support/Adobe
Please don't hesitate to let me know if anything I can
provide to identify this issue.
Thanks in advance.
OS: Mac OS X and Tiger

Thanks for the prompt reply.
The case is on the Mac, suppose my app is call myApp.air
1. Run myApp.air, install version 1, works great
2. Make a new myApp.air, name it version 2.
3. Run myApp.air, upgrade version 1 to version 2, works
great.
4. Uninstall version 2 by delete the installation folder. For
example, if I install on /Users/MyApp, delete the folder and empty
trash.
5. Install version 2 myApp.jar, error message complains
version mismatch.
On windows, I can uninstall from Control Panel. On the Mac, I
don't know how I should remove an AIR app, and so I just went ahead
and delete the app install folder.
Thanks in advance! Really appreciate your assistance.

I have three programs I would like to uninstall from my apple pro , also I am trying to install skype but having great problems with this to Marie

Hello, I have three programs I would like to delete and uninstall from my apple pro , plus I cant seem to install skype for some reason,as we are going to be traveling around Australia soon I would like to keep in touch with family and friends. I would be most thankfull for your help
Regards Marie

Hi Marie
Can you please describe what happens when you try to install Skype? I've found one common issue people have is that they don't actually fully install it - a lot of people download it, open the downloaded image, and run it from there - and dont actually ever copy it to their Applications folder, so next time they look for it, it can't be opened. Try again from scratch - go to the Skype website, download the file, if it doesn't automatically display the Skype disk image on your Desktop, go to your Downloads folder, locate the Skype download and double-click it to open, then, open a new Finder window and drag the Skype application from inside the disk image to your Applications folder. Once that's done you can trash the disk image. Go to your Applications folder, find Skype and launch it. Let me know if you get stuck.
As John says, it would be very helpful to know exactly which Mac you have. If its a laptop, you probably have a MacBook Pro, not a Mac Pro, which is a very large, heavy silver box and not amenable to being dragged around Australia!

Can make audio calls from mac pro

FaceTime and Messages setup per instructions (on phone 5s iOS 8.1 and Mac Pro13 Retina Yosemite 10.10). Can make a Face time call but not audio from Mac. The Contacts iPhone icon pops up the quickly disappears. Under Face Time call audio works but video fails,

I think I resolved this! I had the same issues you have been having for a few months. I am actually running Vista. Here is what I did...
1. While booted to Windows I uninstalled boot camp
2. Re-installed boot camp from Leopard DVD
3. Installed boot camp update 2.1 (downloaded from Apple support, i know this is for XP only, but I updated anyway.)
4. Downloaded the realtek drivers (high definition audio codecs) from http://www.realtek.com.tw/downloads/
5. DO NOT use the Realtek installer to install the drivers...instead extract the contents to a folder.
6. Go to the device manager, locate the High Definition Audio device and updated the drivers from here (point to the folder where you extracted the drivers).
I now have sound out of the rear jack!! Hope this help someone
