How to remove entry from $PATH on mac

Check the following files:

/etc/bashrc
/etc/profile
~/.bashrc
~/.bash_profile
~/.profile
~/.MacOSX/environment.plist

Some of these files may not exist, but they're the most likely ones to contain $PATH definitions.

On MAC OS X Leopard and higher

cd /etc/paths.d

There may be a text file in the above directory that contains the path you are trying to remove.

vim textfile //check and see what is in it when you are done looking type :q 
//:q just quits, no saves

If its the one you want to remove do this

rm textfile //remove it, delete it

Here is a link to a site that has more info on it, even though it illustrates 'adding' the path. However, you may gain some insight.
