How to uninstall zotero standalone on mac?
Hi.
Please help a mac-novice. I need to delete my zotero standalons, since i now have both standalone and in firefox... And i only want in firefox. But i simply can't get rid of it!
I tried dragging it to the trash.
I tried erasing it in the launchpad (there won't appear an x)
I of course also tried to find something within the program...
Sigh.
Hope someone can help me. Thank you!

But before uninstalling Standalone, you should first check the location of your Zotero data directory. If you installed Standalone first, your data directory might be within a Standalone-related directory, and while it's not necessary, it'd be a good idea to move it to the default Firefox location instead.
While moving data directories around, it's a good idea to temporarily disable auto-sync in the Sync pane of the preferences, so do that first in both Standalone and Zotero for Firefox.
Once you've made sure that Zotero for Firefox is using its default location (or a custom location of your choosing elsewhere on the system, but not within the Standalone profile directory) and you've moved your old data directory there (if necessary), you can just drag Zotero in Applications to the trash and re-enable auto-sync in Zotero for Firefox.
I have been trying to uninstall Zotero Standalone from my iMac for a week now with no success. Mac High Sierra 10.13.4
I dragged the app into the trash
I used spotlight to search out and delete all Zotero files and directories
Please, I want Zotero FULLY UNINSTALLED from my computer. I am losing my patience with this. It should already be gone. I am tired of reading forum entries like these, following the directions, and not getting results.
The program is still on my Dashboard. Why? And now I have to download another program to remove Zotero? This is complete nonsense.
EDIT: a friend of mine just came by and figured it out. Consider it solved. But it doesn't get my time back.
