How to delete App Store apps from the launchpad
The first category applies to applications installed exclusively through the Mac's App Store.
1. Open the launchpad. The icon is gray with a black outline of a rocket ship. If you can't find it, try searching.
2. After you find the application you want to delete, click and hold the application until the application starts to shake. If you downloaded an application from the App Store, a small "X" icon will appear in the upper left corner of the application.
3. Click the "X" icon on the application you want to delete. Remember, this will remove it from both the launchpad and the computer.
When you click and hold an app in the launchpad, all apps you downloaded from the App Store will display an "X".
If the "X" icon is not displayed for the application to be deleted, it means that you have downloaded the application through an Internet browser. If this is the case, there is another way to delete it.
How to delete internet apps from the launchpad
This method can also be used to delete apps from the App Store. Like above. But this is the only way to delete applications from the Internet
1. Click the Finder icon, by default, it is a square smiling face on the far left of the Dock. You can also open the Finder by opening any folder.
2. In the Finder window that opens, click "Applications" on the left.
3. Click the application you want to delete, and then drag it to the "trash icon" icon on the far right of the Dock—or, right-click the application's icon and select "move to trash".
