On your device, go to the Apps tab on Google Play, then click the menu button to go to My Apps. An Installed tab should open, and scroll down to the Google Earth app. Click the app, and it gives you the option to Open or Uninstall. Click the uninstall, and a pop up should appear saying "Do you want to uninstall this app?". Click OK, and the app will uninstall.

If the placemark is in your saved places then you only need to right-mouse on the placemark either on the map or in the saved places panel and select properties. Once in the Placemark properties edit window, you can change the name, description, style, etc.

If what you want to change is the label or place name on the map then you need to use Google Map Maker and make the changes there which will be reviewed and if approved will be incorporated in the Google Earth/Maps database for all users.

UPDATE: Google Map Maker is discontinued. Map changes can be done in Google Maps.

To edit polygons in Google Earth you can edit/move individual points in edit mode for the polygon placemark or edit it as KML in some other application. In edit mode, you can drag the individual points to a new location. When you hover over the polygon vertex the icon changes from a cross-hair icon to a hand icon at which point you can click and move the point. Click delete to remove that vertex. Note there is no undo in Google Earth so if you make a mistake you have to click 'Cancel' and start again.

While you can edit (i.e., move or delete) individual vertices of a polygon in Google Earth, there is no option to move the entire polygon as-is to a new location.

This uses "feature-anchors" which can link to a placemark by it's id (not name).See related link below for examples.


How do you plot in Google Earth?

If you have KML content with lines/paths then Google Earth can plot an Elevation Profile for it.By default the Y-axis of the chart displays the elevation, and the X-axis of the chart displays the distance.To plot other values (e.g. heartrate, cadence, power, etc.) the geometry of the Placemark should be one of Google's KML extensions, namely gx:Track, where you can add those values in an ExtendedData tag with gx:SimpleArrayData.Go to Edit > Show Elevation Profile, or right-click on your path from the Places panel and select 'Show Elevation Profile'.
