Uninstalling CS2 from Macbook

I have a macbook running 10.4.11 and I have a version on Adobe Photoshop CS2 installed that is very slow and wonky. It was installed at an old office and I do not have the CD's. I want to uninstall it and install a new version of CS3 which I heard works a lot better. Any ideas on the best way to do this?? Thanks-Mott

Drag CS2 folder to the trash.
Delete

    I realized there was a super-easy solution to find the uninstall function to uninstall ProTools. i simply typed in uninstall protools in the internal search field (the one in the top right corner). Viola, there was the uninstall window and click, the software was gone. super easy!

  • How do I uninstall CS2 from my macbook pro? I am still on Snow Leopard.

    I have been using CS2 on my macbook pro for a couple of years now. It's slow, but it got done what I needed to get done. Today I got a message that said my CS2 license was not valid and all the applications in CS2 stopped working. I am assuming I have to uninstall and reinstall. BUT the first instruction is to go to the activiy monitor and find the "ahcremind" and click "quit process". I know you've heard this before and even answered it before but not in any place I could find. Help! How do I uninstall?

    Remove the app from your Applications folder (or wherever it's installed) and then restart your laptop.

  • How to uninstall Ifunbox from Macbook Air ?

    Hello & Happy New Year
    I just bought Macbook Air 2013 and I had installed Ifunbox and I don't know how to uninstall it despite I can't find it in the application , I funbox logo showing when I opened finder or app and created folder in the desktop by himself .
    Please help 

    After installing iFunBox to fix another iPhone/iTunes syncing problem (I was able to resolve the issue unsing another method not requiring iFunBox), I started getting more network timeouts and other network slowness issues. iFunBox was recommended to fix the issue, but restoring iTunes settings on my MBP did the trick.
    To remove iFunBox, I had to use MacTuneUp v7 (a commercial Mac utility) to brute force remove it. .  I now understand the reason for Apple having the extra security prompt for installing unapproved apps, and any app that does not have a removal feature is very questionable.
    My network issues went away when iFunbox went away...

  • Uninstalling applications from MacBook Pro

    I am new to apple and would like to know how to uninstall applications.

    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 also several shareware utilities that can uninstall applications:
    AppZapper
    CleanApp
    Yank
    SuperPop
    Uninstaller
    Spring Cleaning
    Look for them at VersionTracker or MacUpdate.
    For more information visit The XLab FAQs and read the FAQ on removing software.

  • How do I uninstall ADE from Macbook?

    I recently installed ADE to read content from Open Library, but don't like the presentation (those I want seem to be copied from old, yellowed copies of print books).
    I can't seem to shift ADE out, or find lucid instructions on how to - any suggestions?

    No, you're missing the entire forest and the trees.  Whatever it is you are trying to accomplish by hacking iBooks off of your system, it is not an informed decision that will benefit you in any way.  To increase rather than decrease the load on iTunes by returning the book library view to it would tend to make iTunes worse, wouldn't it?  Certainly, not being able to open your books there in any way can't be an improvement.  If you have books that used to show up in iTunes, and that is where you want them displayed, then you have books that will be read on iBooks on iOS or OS X.  If you're just shifting ePubs into some other reader on your mobile devices, you wouldn't put them into your iTunes library at all, and iBooks would be empty anyway. 
    And beside that, you're hosed in Yosemite with those maneuvers, so again, accomplishing absolutely nothing but scratching a very silly itch that is much worse as the rash you're creating.  Did you delete the unnecessary keyboards and language files first, because that will save a lot more space.  Did you cull the unnecessary kexts for your hardware?  You know, things that actually do something valuable with a measurable benefit and no downside.  If iBooks is such a pressure on your life that you have to get rid of it, how would you know?  Do you torture yourself by opening iBooks everyday and then screaming in pain?  If you can live without it installed, then you would not normally be opening it anyway, so it would have about the same affect on you as Migration Assistant or Chess, unless you deliberately sought it out.

    There's a lot more installed than what that article says. The Java installation package includes much more than just:
    /System/Library/Java/JavaVirtualMachines/
    Take a look at the package with Pacifist.

  • How do I uninstall mackeeper from my macbook pro?

    How do i uninstall mackeeper from my Macbook Pro?

    You may have installed a variant of the "VSearch" ad-injection malware. Follow Apple Support's instructions to remove it.
    If you have trouble following those instructions, see below.
    Malware is always changing to get around the defenses against it. This procedure works as of now, as far as I know. It may not work in the future. Anyone finding this comment a few days or more after it was posted should look for a more recent discussion, or start a new one.
    The VSearch malware tries to hide itself by varying the names of the files it installs. To remove it, you must first identify the naming pattern.
    Triple-click the line below on this page to select it, then copy the text to the Clipboard by pressing the key combination  command-C:
    /Library/LaunchDaemons
    In the Finder, select
              Go ▹ Go to Folder...
    from the menu bar and paste into the box that opens by pressing command-V. You won't see what you pasted because a line break is included. Press return.
    A folder named "LaunchDaemons" may open. Look inside it for two files with names of the form
              com.something.daemon.plist
    and
               com.something.helper.plist
    Here something is a variable string of characters, which can be different in each case. So far it has always been a string of letters without punctuation, such as "cloud," "dot," "highway," "submarine," or "trusteddownloads." Sometimes it's a meaningless string such as "e8dec5ae7fc75c28" rather than a word. Sometimes the string is "apple," and then you must be especially careful not to delete the wrong files, because many built-in OS X files have similar names.
    If you find these files, leave the LaunchDaemons folder open, and open the following folder in the same way:
    /Library/LaunchAgents
    In this folder, there may be a file named
              com.something.agent.plist
    where the string something is the same as before.
    If you feel confident that you've identified the above files, back up all data, then drag just those three files—nothing else—to the Trash. You may be prompted for your administrator login password. Close the Finder windows and restart the computer.
    Don't delete the "LaunchAgents" or "LaunchDaemons" folder or anything else inside either one.
    The malware is now permanently inactivated, as long as you never reinstall it. You can stop here if you like, or you can remove two remaining components for the sake of completeness.
    Open this folder:
    /Library/Application Support
    If it has a subfolder named just
               something
    where something is the same string you saw before, drag that subfolder to the Trash and close the window.
    Don't delete the "Application Support" folder or anything else inside it.
    Finally, in this folder:
    /System/Library/Frameworks
    there may an item named exactly
                v.framework
    It's actually a folder, though it has a different icon than usual. This item always has the above name; it doesn't vary. Drag it to the Trash and close the window.
    Don't delete the "Frameworks" folder or anything else inside it.
    If you didn't find the files or you're not sure about the identification, post what you found.
    If in doubt, or if you have no backups, change nothing at all.
    The trouble may have started when you downloaded and ran an application called "MPlayerX." That's the name of a legitimate free movie player, but the name is also used fraudulently to distribute VSearch. If there is an item with that name in the Applications folder, delete it, and if you wish, replace it with the genuine article from mplayerx.org.
    This trojan is often found on illegal websites that traffic in pirated content such as movies. If you, or anyone else who uses the computer, visit such sites and follow prompts to install software, you can expect more of the same, and worse, to follow. Never install any software that you downloaded from a bittorrent, or that was downloaded by someone else from an unknown source.
    In the Security & Privacy pane of System Preferences, select the General tab. The radio button marked Anywhere  should not be selected. If it is, click the lock icon to unlock the settings, then select one of the other buttons. After that, don't ignore a warning that you are about to run or install an application from an unknown developer.
    Then, still in System Preferences, open the App Store or Software Update pane and check the box marked
              Install system data files and security updates (OS X 10.10 or later)
    or
              Download updates automatically (OS X 10.9 or earlier)
    if it's not already checked.

  • What is the best way to completely uninstall Aperture from a MacBook Pro?

    What is the best way to completely uninstall Aperture from a MacBook Pro.
    I just ordered a new MacBook Pro and I want to remove it from my older MacBook Pro.

    Deleting the application from your /Applications folder is sufficient. There are sample projects in /Library/Application/Aperture you may want to get rid of as well, as they take up a fair bit of space.

  • How to uninstall 3rd party app from MacBook Pro?

    Does anyone know how to uninstall a 3rd party application (RMSViewer) from MacBook Pro?  The app doesn't work and I want to remove it from memory.  I can't find an "uninstall" utility on my computer and the 3rd party software doesn't include an uninstall link.

    Tap and old the app until it starts to wiggle. Tap the "x" that appears on the corner of the icon.
    If that doesn't work, check Settings>General>Restrictions to see if removing apps is restricted.
    You may also want to take a read through the manual:
