Solution

This section describes how to uninstall the applications of the [DIGITAL CAMERA Solution Disk] from your computer. The following instructions are intended for [ImageBrowser].

(Uninstallation is an operation to remove a driver / software when it is no longer needed, or if a problem occurs.)

Caution

The following instructions are intended for Mac OS X (v10.6).
The procedures described in this section are for uninstalling [Image Browser]; however when uninstalling applications from the [Canon Utilities] folder, the procedures are almost the same.
Please be careful not to accidentally delete any folders with downloaded images that may be contained within the application folder. It is recommended that you save the image folder (create a backup) before uninstallation. Images downloaded to [ImageBrowser] are normally saved in [Go] ⋗ [home] ⋗ [Pictures] on the [menu bar].

1. Click the icon of the hard disk to which the image folder was installed, and then select [Applications] ⋗ [Canon Utilities] ⋗ [Image Browser].


2. Move the [Image Browser] folder to [Trash].


3. From the [Finder] menu, select [Empty Trash].


4. If the [Image Browser] icon still remains under [Dock], drag the icon to [Trash] to delete.

This completes the process of uninstalling the application.
