I'm trying to use my IR receiver on my Arduino Uno Board. First I need to remove my IR Robot library because it interferes with the IRremote library. On my Mac, I have gone into the Arduino/library folder, but the name of the library I have to remove is not there. I cannot figure out how to remove this. Please help!!
The Library Manager is the simplest and safest way to install libraries. If possible, that is the method you should use.
If the library you want to use is not available via the library manager, you can get the source code and place it into your machine's local library folder. The location of the folder is rather specific.
See the file hierarchy below:
It is important to install your libraries in the correct location. Otherwise the compiler will not be able to locate them when you try to compile and upload your sketches.

Locate your Sketchbook Folder and the Libraries Folder Inside
Your sketchbook folder is the folder where the Arduino IDE stores your sketches. This folder is automatically created by the IDE when you install it.
On Linux machines, the folder is named 'Sketchbook' and it is typically located in /home/
On Windows and Macintosh machines, the default name of the folder is 'Arduino' and is located in your Documents folder.

User installed libraries should go in a folder named Libraries, located inside your sketchbook folder. This is where the IDE will look for user installed libraries.
Open the Preferences DialogClick File -> Preferences in the IDE. |
Find the Sketchbook LocationUsually a folder named Arduino in your Documents folder. |
Create a Libraries FolderIf there is no Libraries folder there, create one. |
Rename to LibrariesRight click on the New Folder and select Rename. Then type in Libraries. |
