Q: Widget problems
Hi Folks - looked at Mission Control and saw it was full of widgets...some I no longer need.
When I held down a widget icon the 'jiggling' started but there was no way to delete ie
there wasn't a + or - signs showing (as other discussion intimated) ergo
no way to delete.
Can anyone advise? Thanks
MacBook Pro, OS X Mountain Lion (10.8.4)

Hey gurujok,
The (+) and (-) buttons will only appear in Dashboard to remove any widgets that you have installed. When you want to see your apps that you have on your computer, you will use LaunchPad. LaunchPad will show all the apps and your dock so that is expected. You will not see a + and - button to delete apps from there. You will either use the method that you used to remove the apps if they were not downloaded from the Mac App Store or the original way you were trying to delete apps by click and holding the app to see them jiggle and the (X) button.
Glad to know that you got it figured out and take care.
