Having had my nice new iMac all of ten seconds ive already messed it up by download some stupid software I didnt actually need and now i cant get rid of it
![]() I have tried dragging it to my trash and emptying trash but I says that it is in use so i cant trash it. I have the icon in my dock as well which I can not drag to trash. I have tried to find an answer on the net and it seems others have had this problem but I could find a solution. Please please help New & frustrated Mac user, Corinne. |

You have to quit the app before you can trash it. Can't be trashed while it's still running.
I cannot be held responsible for the things that come out of my mouth. In the Windows world, most everything folks don't understand is called a virus. Place your vote for our Member of the Month |

If no uninstaller try AppDelete, AppTrap or similar. Hang on to those original install discs like grim death! Using OS X.7 or later make a bootable USB thumb drive before running Installer! |
