OS X V10.7 Lion :: How To Delete Or Hide Icons From Launchpad
Apr 9, 2012
I recently installed an application to my macbook pro. However when I installed it the uninstaller also shows in the launchpad. It is so unattractive and I was wondering how to get rid of it? Everytime I open lanchpad I see it. Dragging to the trash does not work, it only works if I want to uninstall it.

When I open Launchpad I can't see the app icons, only the names. I am able to click the names and the apps will run. I can see the icons in finder, however. Also, keep in mind that my computer has virtually no storage left. Here's a screenshot:

Every time I restart my machine the first page of the icons on Launchpad moves around. There is no obvious pattern to this, just a general shuffling of the icons. Anyone identified a cause/solution for this?Â

For some reason a whole bunch of new icons showed up in my Launchpad all of a sudden. I haven't installed anything new that I know of, but I'm wondering if this happened after an Apple update. Here is a screencap: [URL]. What these little script icons are for? They do not exist on my other Macs.

Trying to install Google Earth, I wound up with 2 Google Earth icons in my Launchpad. Why is it so difficult to delete an icon from the Launchpad? I deleted Google Earth from my Applications but there still remains a Google Earth icon on my Launchpad. Why is everything on this Mac so difficult?

I downloaded a couple of apps that I decided I didn't need, so I moved them to the trash. When these apps were downloaded and installed, their icons were added to Launchpad, but when I deleted the apps, the icons remained in Launchpad. These were not downloaded from the Mac App Store. Is there an easy way to get rid of the icons? It would seem that when an app is deleted, the respective icon should be removed at the same time.

So a while ago a bunch of new icons appeared in my launchpad(four pages worth). I clicked on a few and they didn't do anything, but am hesitant to mess around too much as I don't want to mess up my system. I've tried to find a way to hide them, but have come up short.

I don't want some applications to show their dock icon when they're running. Preview is an example. I've used the freeware app "Configure Dock Application Tile", but it always gives me an error saying I don't have permission. Is there another app that can do this?

I was searching for ways, but it seems that was with older versions because I can't find a general button under preferences on my imac.

I've got an external HD hooked up to my iMac and it has some software on there that brings up a CD icon on the desktop.
Is there a way to hide just that specific icon?
I know you can go to Finder and uncheck so that it doesn't show CD/DVD icons on the desktop...but that would mean anytime I pop in a CD it wouldn't show up and I don't want that, just want to hide the specific App icon.

Does an app exist that hides all desktop icons in certian spaces? For example, I use space two for all my non-work things and would be great to hide the messy desktop this space.

Does anyone know a way to hide/get rid of third-party menu bar icons? It seems like every developer out there wants to create a menu bar icon for things that are completely unnecessary, and only half of the time do they have an option for turning it off. Does anyone know of a way to just hide the icon completely? Or hack the application's resources to not display it?

I place document icons in my finder sidebar, and sometime later they change to folder icons. Does not matter which application they come from, it seems to happen to them all, but they are still linked to the correct documents.

I have a variety of apps in Launchpad and I have them arranged just how I like them but then I shut down my MacBook Pro at the end of the day and the next day my apps are in completely different locations. It is really quite annoying to have to rearrange them manually after I boot up my Mac.
