I still recommend MacKeeper until I hear what problems Beverly has encountered. It will, if you ask it to, give you a list of apps that need updating and provides and provides one click access to download the updates. It will also list applications from which you can then choose to uninstall. it will also watch and if it sees you drag an application to the trash it will hop in and ask if you want mackeeper's wise uninstaller to uninstall that app. It has lots of other bells and whistles, duplicate finders, encryption, etc. I really wish Beverly would give more information about problems she encountered.
meanwhile here is a list of uninstallers http://en.softonic.com/mac/uninstallers-cleaners Heres a page about a 3rd party software updater called MacFresh http://www.makeuseof.com/tag/how-to-automatically-keep-your-macs-apps-fresh-updated/ Kim On Mon, Jan 23, 2012 at 11:38 AM, Cap'n Bob McBurney <rcapn...@comcast.net>wrote: > On 1/21/12 6:07 PM, Cap'n Bob McBurney wrote: > > I want to buy software to use as update and one that has an unistaller > included.
