Hi everyone,

My mac has just started to have flickr upload every time I turn the computer on. It is infuriating and keeps dumping my daughters iPhone shots onto my Flikr page. I do not remember loading this program and cannot seem to delete it in launchpad.

Does anyone know how to get rid of this thing?

I thought Flickr application is only for iPhone and iPad.
Usually you uninstall applications on a Macintosh by moving them to Trash.
Open an Applications folder,locate offending application and move it to Trash.

I have the same problem . It is not in the applications folder. Go to Flickr site, click on "Explore", then "App Garden, Then "Apps by You". It should show up in your list and you can "remove permission" . Flickr uploader is some sort of Beta app that I actually never tried to use. I found some other stuff on my list I didn't know I had, like "Piknik". Stuff happens!
Hope that works for you.
