Post by daniel smith »

just to follow up, i should say i haven't the faintest idea how this
works. i was prompted to install wine while downloading a minor program
form the web and just clicked "ok." i now see on the forum that it's all
very complicated and there's all sorts of setup to properly install wine.
which of course i didn't do. i dont' really need it and just want it gone,
but obviously the directions for uninstall missed something, or i misread
but i've done it twice so don't think so. just adding that so you'll know
i need very basic instructions if you're able to help. MANY thanks, ds

i recently installed wine and now find that with a regular mac program (a
music program called sing&see) it somehow gloms onto it and screws it up so
it opens but won't do anything--and there is a "wine" menu item next to the
regular sing&see menu. i've uninstalled wine as per the directions in the
wiki. but it keeps somehow still recreating a pref file in the library
called org.kronenberg.WineBottler_SingandSee_Student.plist every time i
reinstall the program.

i'm actually not sure how this posting works--will responses get sent to
me automatically? i assume you can see my email adress, which is, just in
case, dss1209 at gee mail. i've tried subscribing to the forum but
cannot--it asks me to answer a text confirmation question that does not
appear on the screen!

okay, thanks very much in advance for your help, whoever you are!

WineBottler is a third party application that is not supported here, or anywhere AFAIK--it seems to be an abandoned project. Search the site you got it from for any instructions that might still be posted.
