Hey guys,

So I installed Lion earlier today and LOVE it but I'm having a problem with it now...I deleted an application (that I didn't install via the app store) and it's gone, however it's still appearing in Launchpad. How do I get rid of it? I tried dragging it to the trash but it's still there.

Thanks!
 
Did you empty the Trash after deleting the apps? If not try doing that...if that still doesn't work, a reboot may be necessary to remove it from Launchpad.

I actually resolved this earlier; I had to click on the app in question and a question mark appeared over it. Then it gave me the option to delete it off of the Launchpad.
