Novice users only recently opened for themselves Mac OS, some functions of the system may seem not obvious and will require more detailed explanations. In this article we learn how to delete the program from Macintosha.

If you previously used Windows, do not look for deleting in the local analogue of the control panel. Here everything is implemented completely differently, but a little simpler. If we cleaned the label from the desktop in the "windows" with the right click, then on Mc machines, this action applies to the entire program. Just go to "Applications"), call the context menu of the shortcut and select "Move to Trash".

Similar way: Hold the program shortcut in the "Applications" of the mouse cursor and transfer it to the shopping cart "TRASH". After pressing on it right-click and select "Clear". Hot keys to remove the program on the Mac - "Ctrl + Delete" after the isolation of the icon. All the above methods work on any version of OS X, right up to "Snow Leopard".

Starting with the "Lion" version, Mac borrowed many IOS features, that is, well-known iPhone, iPad and other mobile devices. To remove the application in Mac OS X 10.7 Lion, let's go to Launchpad and climb the program shortcut. When he "wangles" and will show us the black cross in the upper left corner, click on the mark. The system will issue a warning with the question of whether you really want to delete the program. Confirm "Yes" \\ "Yes", if the decision is final. The cross does not appear? So it was not installed from the AppStore, but a third-party method, or from another Apple ID. To correct the problem, use the programs that we will tell below. Or go from the former ID and repeat the removal. The "drag-to-trash" method with dragging to the basket is still running at 10.7. Which one is more convenient - to solve you. It is noteworthy that the method with Launchpad doesn't move the program to the basket, and immediately deletes the files.

Separate programs are removed from the MAC OS not fully, leaving behind traces from unnecessary files. Usually they are recorded in the directory ~ / Library / Application Support /, in folders with application name. If the software is already deleted, the folder can be safely removed by any of the methods listed. Also does not hurt from time to time to clean the cache from ~ / Library / CACHES /. If your OS is Russified, "Library" became "libraries".
