[QUOTE="bobtomay, post: 1570342, member: 24160"] edit: Actually this is 1st - read the following on learning how to install 3rd party applications - am thinking you only need to read the 1st post there for the time being to make sure you have actually installed these apps and you're not running them from the download. [url]http://www.mac-forums.com/forums/switcher-hangout/251468-installing-uninstalling-applications.html[/url] 1st - don't install any more apps to the desktop 2nd - you need to quit a running app. You'll do that by selecting the app's name on the left side of the Menu bar (that bar at the top of the screen) while it is the one in focus and select "Quit" or Right click (or 'option click') the icon in the Dock and select 'Quit' 3rd - Drag the icon from your Desktop to the Applications folder - If it is already in the Applications folder - delete the icon on the Desktop. ... After you've done the above and cleared up your Desktop, you can go back and read the rest of the above link for other install and uninstall tips. [/QUOTE]
