Uninstall specific version of mysql OSX - mysql

I installed mysql using .dmg, and then I realized I already have mysql installed. Now I have two versions, and I would like to keep the one that was shipped with OSX.
Is there a way to do it and how?

MySQL installer for Windows (MSI) for 5.7.33 insists on installing 8.0 components

Our application database schema is compatible with MySQL 5.7. A new team member accidentally installed MySQL 8.0.22 on Windows 10 using the MSI installer. The uninstall of version 8.0.22 was successful. However, the subsequent install of version 5.7.32 insists on re-installing version 8.0.22 components. How can version 8.0.22 be cleanly uninstalled to enable a correct 5.7.32 install?
As it turns out, it looks like MySQL implemented an MSI installer that can lay down bits from multiple releases. In the Setup Type phase, you can choose which release to install. As such, withdrawing this question accordingly.

installing the latest MySQL security update on macOS 10.12 Sierra

We're still running MySQL (community server) on macOS 10.12 Sierra (because Apple has gutted later versions of macOS and macOS Server and we don't want to go there just yet). It appears the latest MySQL security updates (October 2018) no longer support macOS with the 5.6.x track. The 5.7.x and 8.x tracks now only list installers for 10.13 High Sierra and 10.14 Mojave.
So, the question is: can you install the latest MySQL 5.7.24 on macOS 10.12 Sierra and will it run without problems?
I'm okay if it's simply "unsupported" and will install but if it specifically won't install/will cause problems I would like to know before upgrading. I've searched the MySQL web site for information on this but there is nothing.
I asked this question on the MySQL forums and got no response. Hope someone here can help.

Installing MySQL 5.7 on Windows

I am struggling to install MySQL 5.7 on Windows 10 after a clean removal of MySQL 8.0. The installer defaults to the version 8.0.12, with no way for me to change it.
When I run the installer (which has the version number 5.7.23.0), I am prompted to the following screen:
... despite the fact that this installer is (supposedly) for specifically the version 5.7.
I am unfamiliar with the manual installation process, so I was wondering if someone could help me install MySQL 5.7 on my PC (preferably all the other MySQL products such as the Connector and the Workbench as well). I've been trying to follow the instructions on the official documentation, but I stopped because I had no idea what I was doing.
I removed my MySQL 8.0.11 installation
Then I removed all the MySQL folders in the program and data folders
I disabled the gateway
Then started the installer for version 5.7.24 and that was oke.
First download all requirements and install them first
Then the installation was done. At the Installation screen, the status was ready to download, but I ignored it first and then I enabled the gateway again and the installation was fine.
At the installation screen it was clearly that version 5.7 would be installed. It only installed some 8.0 products (like the Shell, Router, connectors etc).
After checking, i've got Workbench 8 but MySQL 5.7.24

Upgrade MAMP MySQL to 5.7 on Windows

I'm using MAMP PRO 3.2.2 for Windows and need to upgrade the current MySQL version (5.5) to 5.7. Is there a way to do this in Windows?
Unfortunately it appears the only solution is updating MAMP. Which is a problem for me because the newest MAMP appears unstable (shutting servers on and off causes overlapping ports). I wish there was as I prefer MAMP 3.3.1.

How do I update phpMyAdmin on EC2 LAMP Server?

I have a LAMP server on an EC2 instance. I downloaded phpMyAdmin using Amazon's guide here: http://docs.aws.amazon.com/AWSEC2/latest/UserGuide/install-LAMP.html.
On the phpMyAdmin page it says that:
"A newer version of phpMyAdmin is available and you should consider upgrading. The newest version is 4.6.5.2, released on 2016-12-05."
and I need to update it and also MySQL to use new features they put on the updates.
I'm accessing the EC2 instance from the terminal in my Mac laptop. I've tried a lot of things but I couldn't manage it. I've tried
sudo yum install -y phpMyAdmin
sudo yum install
I tried to manually download the latest version from phpmyadmin.net and change the files in the folder but I couldn't access the phpmyadmin folder in the first place.
Any help would be appreciated,
Thanks
You're using the version of phpMyAdmin maintained by your distribution (presumably Fedora, CentOS, or Red Hat); this means that basically you're not responsible for (or able to) upgrade the software that's under control of the package manager (aside from running the updates occasionally). If you wish to use a different version, you're certainly able to remove the package manager version then install it manually. I don't use EPEL, but I believe the highest version currently distributed is 4.4.15.9 (reference, which I think is because of the older versions of PHP and/or MySQL which are currently shipped. So you might not be able to upgrade due to your MySQL or PHP versions, but YMMV.
Basically, if you're using the package managed version, the whole point is so you don't have to worry about manual updates.
You can disable the notification by adding the directive $cfg['VersionCheck'] = false; to your config.inc.php (which may be in /etc/ or /etc/phpmyadmin, but I'm just guessing about how your distribution may handle it.).
