How do I delete gimp photo editor off my mac? - Barclay - 01-21-2011
Every time I try to delete it by dragging it into trash, it says an unexpected error has occured- error 61. The disc thing when i try to eject that it says that the volume can currently not be ejected because it is currently in use, when it is not. Please help me, I do not need this, and I need space on my computer and it bothers me to have it. I do not like gimp and it will not delete off my computer!

It sounds like you have launched Gimp and that is why you can't Eject it. Quit Gimp and try ejecting. If it doesn't work then logout, login and try Eject it again. If that fails, reboot your Mac and try again.
If you have installed Gimp to your Applications directory, then just drag it's icon to the Trash and delete unless you installed it to your hard drive.
If you have installed it to your hard drive and deleted it, there will be a few KB worth of files left over, usually . plist files. If you want to delete them all you have to do is search for gimp with Spotlight.
Did you know that you have to install X11 from your Install Disk before installing Gimp. app?
A couple of uninstaller apps you might want to get.
