FYI App Delete by Reggie Ashworth is a wonderful program for
uninstalling Mac applications. It costs about $8.00, but it's well worth
it. It digs deep into your computer and deletes, not only the main
application, but all the attending files as well.

It looks like you can delete the non-essential Apple programs like
GarageBand and iMovie. I don’t know if deleting them keeps the updater
from notifying you of updates. I’ll just have to try that on a couple
of machines and see what happens.

Dan,
Curious if you had any responses on this? In a corporate environment
and I
would love to be able to get rid of a few things like Notifications and
other Apple apps that are not utilized, or that our end users don't need
access to.
Thanks!

Is there a way to turn off updating of Apple-installed apps? On some work
computers that I manage, I don¹t want to update (or even use) certain
applications, such as GarageBand, Keynote or iMovie, but am notified
whenever there is an update available. Prior to the App Store, there
was a
checkbox for ³Don¹t notify of updates for this application² or something
to that effect. But I don¹t see anything like that now.
Could I just uninstall the programs that I don¹t want to use or update
(which is to say, drag them to the trash, as I don¹t know of any
other way
to uninstall them). I know that Apple won¹t even allow me to trash some
programs, such as iTunes; not sure about ther other Apple apps.
