I accidently installed amazon cloud player after an online purchase.
How can I completely uninstall it?
iMac (21.5-inch Mid 2011), OS X Mountain Lion (10.8.5)
Welcome to Apple Support Communities
This application do not come with an uninstaller, so it is easy to uninstall it.
Open a Finder window and choose Applications in the sidebar. Then, move Amazon Cloud Player to the Trash and empty the Trash. That's all
Amazon Cloud Player is nowhere to be found on my hard disk, but every ten seconds console reports:

Contact Amazon tech support since it's their software.
same problem in Snow Leopard - looks like it's been going on a long time but I just discovered it
Hi,
This appears to be an artifact from an old installation that was not cleaned up properly. OSX is looking for a application that is no longer there.
To fix this issue do the following:
Open Terminal window
cd ~/Library/LaunchAgents
launchctl remove com.amazon.cloud-player
launchctl remove com.amazon.cloud-player-renderer
launchctl remove com.amazon.music
launchctl remove com.amazon.music-renderer
launchctl remove com.amazon.music-renderer
rm com.amazon.cloud-player*
This should remove the issue.
uninstall amazon cloud player
