thanks, i think trashing will be best then, i'am a new convert to Mac and with windows moving to the recycle bin still left alot of rubbish on your hard drive.
Since you've revived this 2 year old thread, it's appropriate to address some of the posts made here. AppZapper, AppCleaner, CleanApp, TrashMe, and similar apps do not do a thorough job of removing all files/folders related to deleted apps. I tested several of these, using Skype as the app to be removed. Of 17 items to be removed:Thanks for the help on removing programs from my Mac. There were a couple of responses to another members question. I just found this sight quite by accident. I was trying to figure out how to remove software and APPs from my Mac.
Don't. Read the post just before yours.Just got AppZapper. Haven't used it yet though.
Thanks for the help on removing programs from my Mac. There were a couple of responses to another members question. I just found this sight quite by accident. I was trying to figure out how to remove software and APPs from my Mac. When I got my first Windows computer, it was shortly after Windows 95 came out. I remember thinking then that this system was flawed because they did not have a Macro written to allow you to drag and drop software into the trash. I found this out the hard way though. So I was very pleasantly surprised to find out that Mac did go through this trouble to make life simpler for us.
I just got this about 2 weeks ago. I had been wanting a Mac for a few years now and finally got this Macbook pro a couple of weeks ago. I had a Sony Vaio for just over 2 years. It was a nightmare. It was in the shop more than a Fiat Spyder. I finally got the store to give me a replacement. I upgraded without a second thought and NO plans of looking back. So far I LOVE it.
Thank you, again, everyone who posted to the previous members question.
I look forward to sharing with you in the future.

It is impossible to delete them.. at least so far. I have tried everything I can find. They do not stay in the trash. I actually got the app zapper to rid myself of the other..
suggestions? I have tried all of above . I had Snow Leopard professionally installed last year and it is updated. Thank you !

You can use the MS Office uninstallation process, but if you run into problems, the manual method may help.Is that easier or harder than the 'Microsoft Office' instructions to delete before I use the disc to reinstall just the parts I want, do you think?
Apparently its a scam and my Facebook is super slow on Safari and the Dislike button does not work. How can I really get rid of this "Getdislike" thingy from my Safari? I've tried all sorts of way but still fail Help me please!
