Uninstall Reader 8 on Mac

I can't seem to get rid of "Adobe Digital Editions" and suspect that is why I can't access my library digital ebooks on my newly installed Reader v. 6 (Version 8 which had ADE included won't allow me to transfer the books to my PDA.) I see how to uninstall Reader 8 on WIndows, but not on Mac. I'm assuming there is more to it than just deleting the application. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Installation of Reader cannot cause IPhoto or any other program to
change what format files are stored in. They can change the default
reader of pdf files and change the icons associated with pdf files. But
thats it.
I believe Reader 8 can just be dragged to the trash. If you want you can
manually delete the Reader plug-in for Safari.

  • Adobe Reader 9 and Mac OSX 10.5 - FDF Issue

    I have an issue that only happens when using Adobe Reader 9 and Mac OSX 10.5.
    When submitting a form from within a PDF, the FDF that gets sent is completely blank.
    Tested on Mac OSX 10.4 with Adobe Reader 9 - no issue
    Tested on Mac OSX 10.5 with Adobe Reader 8 - no issue
    Tested on Mac OSC 10.5 with Adobe Professional 8 - no issue
    It only seems to be a combination of OSX 10.5 and Reader 9. Does anyone have any clue about the settings of these two and what might be happening?
    Any help is greatly appreciated.

    Then immediately get this error message:

    you can download it here:
    http://support.apple.com/de_DE/downloads/#safari%20for%20Snow%20Leopard
    or any Apple support downloads page, look for Safari 5.1.5
    NB: I suggest you also update SL with the Combo update to 10.6.8 (if you did not update it already).

  • 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.

    Hi,
    I have exactly the same problem on one of my Macs (MBP 15 Mid-2010 / OS X Yosemite): Both reader and Acrobat Pro download without a hitch. Both also install with no problem.
    But once you click the program to open, they both return "an internal error occurred".  
    I tried downloading three separate copies, and still get the same error message when I install and launch.  I've also uninstalled the previous installations via CleanMyMac2 to make sure it's no longer in the SSD.  Same results.
    Am using a new SSD as internal boot drive, with fresh / clean installation of OS X and Apps (previous internal HDD crashed) -- And am seeing errors not only with Acrobat, but also with LR5 which always comes up with a "An error occurred when attempting to change modules" -- inspite or uninstall, download and reinstall.  Not sure if it's a registry issue? (Not even sure if that's the case with OS X).
    Do I need to reformat the whole SSD? I hope not!
    Thanks
    Edwin

  • Hello, I purchased Adobe as a download a few years ago and installed in on a Mac Pro. I would like to uninstall it on that mac and install it on a new Mac Pro. Any idea how I can do that?

    Hello, I purchased Adobe as a download a few years ago and installed in on a Mac Pro. I would like to uninstall it on that mac and install it on a new Mac Pro. Any idea how I can do that?

    Just download, install, and activate using your serial number.  You are allowed to have the software installed and activated on two machines.  If you do not wish to retain the original installation as a backup you can deactivate it by opening one of the programs and choosing Help -> Deactivate.
    Here is a general link for where you can find download links...
    Download and Installation Help -
    https://helpx.adobe.com/download-install.html
    If you would like a more direct link you will need to name the software and the version.
    If you need your serial number you should be able to find it in your Adobe account online if you registered the software when you first installed it.

  • Stupid question: how do uninstall programs on a mac?

    just bought a macbook, never really used a mac before but need it for editing w/final cut. if i wanted to uninstall a program, is there a place to uninstall programs like in windows? thanks a lot.

    To be clear:
    It is generally safe to simply find the application and drag it to the trash. By far and away the majority of applications are self contained and trashing them is all you have to do to uninstall.
    Now, there are some applications that install additional files. Most of these will place files either in /library/application support/ or /username/library/application support/. They're easy to find with Spotlight because the folders they reside in will usually have the name of the application or the manufacturer in them. For example, Adobe uses the Application Support folder. The Adobe files are in a folder called... you guessed it: Adobe.
    The long and the short of it is that uninstalling applications on a Mac is nothing like uninstalling applications on a PC. There is no registry to mess with and most applications are very kind to the system and leave no weird additional files lying around that you have to hunt down and clean up.

  • How do I uninstall extensions from my mac?

    How do I uninstall extensions from my mac? I'm trying to uninstall the Greatdy System Audio and Sunflower extensions. It would really be nice if macs had a comprehensive program to uninstall programs and plugins.

    Open Extensions preferences in System Preferences. That is if you mean Yosemite extensions. Otherwise, use any uninstaller provided by the developer or read the following:
    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, EasyFind, instead.
    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:
        1. AppZapper
        2. AppDelete
        3. Automaton
        4. Hazel
        5. AppCleaner
        6. CleanApp
        7. iTrash
        8. Amnesia
        9. Uninstaller
      10. Spring Cleaning

  • Uninstalling IE 6 for mac

    I have made an effort to uninstall IE 6 for mac. I don't seem to have an uninstall program, and the files I've found, mostly  under "Microsoft" are scanty and few and not, I think, substantial enough to take the program out. I have used "Hotmail" and "Outlook" for some time and am closing my account with Microsoft. Can you offer some help as to how I can rid myself of this software?

    I believe I downloaded it at about that time. I don't seem to have a disc and don't remember ever having one. My best estimate is that I have removed part of the software and still have some left, or the software is in places in the computer that I may not see.  I can't find a disc for it, so I am in a quandry as to how to remove the software.
