Help with removing an application

Huh. I have never heard that error before, and it doesn't really make any sense that it should be happening now. Try opening Terminal (in Application/Utilities) and typing:

sudo rm -r /Applications/[name of application].app

You'll be asked for a password; enter your user profile password.

 

did you install the program properly? (ie did you drag the app from the disk image to your applications folder?)

if, when you run the program, a white disk icon (a disk image icon) appears under your HDD on the right side of your desktop, then the app wasn't installed properly.

like this -


if you try to delete an app from a disk image, from memory you get a similar error.

if this is the case, then you can just eject the .dmg, and the app will be gone.
