How to Uninstall Software From a Powerbook

Before their current line of Macbook laptops, Apple had Powerbook laptops. As with all Apple computers, Powerbooks run on a Macintosh operating system. Different than Microsoft's Windows operating system, the Macintosh system offers users a simpler process for removing software. Instead of running a separate uninstaller application the way Windows does, the Macintosh allows you to dump the unwanted programs into the trash.

Instructions

1. Click the "Hard Drive" icon on the Powerbook's Mac operating system desktop.

2. Click "Applications" in the left column of the Macintosh hard-drive window.

3. Choose the application that you want to remove from the "Applications" window. Drag the icon onto the "Trash" icon on your dock, which is located at the bottom of the Macintosh screen.

4. Click on the "Trash" icon on your dock. Click the gear icon at the top and choose "Empty Trash."
