Hi, Mac.

Try this:

0. Make a safe copy of your whole system (files and database)
1. Browse to Backend -> Extensions -> Extension Manager -> Manage
2. Search all extensions using filter "com"
3. Uninstall all JomSocial related extensions
4. Search all extensions using filter "jom"
5. Uninstall all JomSocial related extensions
6. Download latest JomSocial package from here: www.jomsocial.com/component/digistore/licenses
7. Unzip it
8. Install com_community package via Joomla! installer
9. Follow installation steps
10. Install iJoomla installer via Joomla! installer

does any changes made on the old version get lost?
we have some language file changes

Hi, Mac.

1. I see no screenshot.. and I don't understand what you mean...
2. Do you have any customizations in html folder of: yoo_infinite template?
3. Notice advise you to remove it manually:
JFolder: :delete: Path is not a folder. Path: /home3/mac/public_html/saifiarabic.com/components/com_ijoomlainstaller
Component Uninstall: Can't uninstall. Please remove manually

Do you have this folder in your structure?

Please, edit your first post and add FTP and PHPmyAdmin credentials.

screenshot added to the answer please check,

what do you mean: 2. Do you have any customizations in html folder of: yoo_infinite template?

yoo_infinite is the website default template, for jomsocial we are using jomsocial default template.

the Path: /home3/mac/public_html/saifiarabic.com/components/com_ijoomlainstaller does not exist on the server as well

Hi, Mac.

1. So JomSocial is installed correctly. Can you access this menu item? JomSocial dashboard is loaded?
2. By customizations I mean template overrides for JomSocial. Just check html folder if it store "com_community" folder.
3. It means that you have remove it from database as there is no such files and folders in file structure.
Remove it manually via PHPmyAdmin. Look for com_ijoomlainstaller in those tables:
_extensions
_assets

hello,
i have updated the ftp details,

regarding ijoomla it worked after i cleaned the phpmyadmin tables,
as for the template i didnt know where to find it,

can you please help with the issue thanks

Hi, Mac.

Yes, you had customization so Frontpage cover was removed in it.
Customizations are stored here: ROOT//templates/yoo_infinite/html/com_community
I changed name for frontpage.guests.php-old and cover is back.
