Re: [Avid-L2] Uninstall Madness

Don't run it from the disk image. Try copying it to your desktop.

There is a manual...more complete...version of uninstall, but I'll have to look for it.

I tried that, but it said the Uninstaller was "damaged" and that I needed to eject the entire disc image. Ugh,

Use the unninstaller of 7.0.3, that might help.

I had a similar problem on 2 of our systems - they had been updated over and over again, probably starting somewhere around OSx 10.5.8, and one of the machines was a (partial) clone of the other - so I took it as an opportunity to rebuild them 'from scratch' and did a clean OS install, which solved the problem.

MAJOR PITA, in your case, probably, but that is what worked for me.
