Uninstalling Adobe For Mac

Mar 03, 2018  Re: Uninstall Acrobat Reader DC from a Mac Duncantho Jun 19, 2017 9:59 AM ( in response to ~graffiti ) I'm not convinced the article 'Uninstalling Adobe Reader from Mac OSX completely!' Removes all files from the DC version, and is silent on the point.

These instructions are NOT applicable to Flash Player included with Google Chrome. Visit the Flash Player Help page for instructions on enabling (or disabling) Flash Player in various browsers.

If you use Windows, see Uninstall Flash Player | Windows.

If Flash Player is installed on your computer, the following box displays the version of Flash Player and your operating system. If Flash Player is not installed, an error message appears.

If your Flash Player installation was not successful, use the following solution to reinstall.

  1. Click the Apple icon and choose About This Mac.

    The Mac OS version appears in the About This Mac dialog.


2. Run the uninstaller applicable to your Mac OS version

  • Run the uninstaller on Mac OS X 10.4 and later, including macOS

Note:

Beginning with Flash Player 11.5, uninstalling the Flash Player resets the AutoUpdateDisable and SilentAutoUpdateEnable settings in mms.cfg to their default values:

  • AutoUpdateDisable=0
  • SilentAutoUpdateEnable=0

If you are running the Flash Player uninstaller as part of your deployment process, redeploy any custom changes to either AutoUpdateDisable or SilentAutoUpdateEnable.

Run the uninstaller on Mac OS X 10.4 and later, including macOS

  1. Download the Adobe Flash Player uninstaller:

    • Mac OS X, version 10.6 and later: uninstall_flash_player_osx.dmg
    • Mac OS X, version 10.4 and 10.5: uninstall_flash_player_osx.dmg

    The uninstaller is downloaded to the Downloads folder of your browser by default.

  2. In Safari, choose Window > Downloads.

    If you are using Mac OS X 10.7 (Lion), click the Downloads icon displayed on the browser.

  3. To open the uninstaller, double-click it in the Downloads window.

    Note: If the Flash Player installer window does not appear, choose Go > Desktop in the Finder. Scroll down to the Devices section and click Uninstall Flash Player.

  4. To run the uninstaller, double-click the Uninstaller icon in the window. If you see a message asking if you want to open the uninstaller file, click Open.

  5. Bookmark or print this page so that you can use the rest of these instructions after you close your browser.
  6. To close all browsers, either click the browser name in the Uninstaller dialog, or close each browser manually and then click Retry.

    Note: Do not click Quit in the Uninstaller window. It stops the uninstallation process.

  7. After you close the browsers, the uninstaller continues automatically until the uninstallation is complete. When you see the message notifying you that the uninstallation succeeded, click Done.

  8. Delete the following directories:

    • <home directory>/Library/Preferences/Macromedia/Flash Player
    • <home directory>/Library/Caches/Adobe/Flash Player

Close all browsers and other applications that use Flash Player, including instant messaging applications, SWF files, and projectors (EXE files that play SWF files).

So I recently installed an App on my Mac from Adobe, I know Adobe software are cool but this one was a freeware that lets you create videos easily, but it also adds a watermark to the video which I did not like.

So, I thought of uninstalling it but I couldn’t find a way to do that. It used to start up on its own whenever I started my computer and it was pretty annoying to see the icon on the top right corner of my MacBook. it shouldn’t be there when it has no purpose.

So I tried figuring out how to uninstall it and finally did it.

Here is how you can do it too if you are annoyed by an app that you installed from Adobe and you are not able to figure out how to uninstall it.

Remove Adobe Mac

Usually, to uninstall an app in Mac you simply can delete it from the Applications folder, but deleting any application from Adobe will not remove it completely.

So what you can do is, Open the Application folder, you will find the Utilities folder, and inside the Utilities folder, you will find Adobe folder where you can find the uninstall folder as well.

You just have to click on the uninstaller of the application you want to uninstall and you are done.
