Hi. I;m using the latest version of OS (Mountain Lion) and recently accidentally downloaded the following version of Quicktime as prompted when downloading a music file from a website. I tried to drag this Quicktime 7.6.6 to the trash but it wouldn't uninstall. Could anyone help me with uninstalling this Quicktime completely please?
MacBook Pro, OS X Mountain Lion
Open Finder, go to the Applications or Utilities folder and drag QuickTime Player 7 to your Trash. If you tried to trash QuickTime, are you sure that you trashed QuickTime 7?
The inbuilt quicktime is of a newer version than Quicktime 7.6.6. I'd just like to uninstall Quicktime 7 but not the inbuilt quicktime (see F4 menu below). I tried moving the Quicktime 7 below to trash but it wouldn't delete.
Weirdly, I cannot find Quicktime 7 in my Application folder in order to move it to trash.
That's because it is in your "Utilities" folder, not your Applications folder.
Do you know how can I make sure all files associated with that are deleted? (i.e. any remainders of the application)
All you have to do is drag the application from your Utilities folder to your trash, then empty your trash. Actually, the two versions are designed to exist side-by-side & unless you were having issues, there is no reason for you to delete 7.6.6...unless you just want to. But, dragging to the trash is all you have to do.
