How do I remove the old one
First you must determine if your shower faucet is posi-temp or if it has a separate balancing spool. The posi-temp takes a 1222 cartridge and the other type takes a 1225 cartridge. Remove the handle. There is a horse shoe clip which is removed from the top of the cartridge. A cartridge puller is highly reccomended. There are two different kinds. On the brass stem inside the cart. there is a notch. Make note of its position as this determines which side hot and cold are on. Pull the cartridge by twisting back and forth while pulling. Lubricate the inside of the cartridge barrel with faucet grease. No motor oil, vaseline or WD-40! They all eat rubber. Insert cart. and retainer clip. Install handle.

No, do not force it. If it is a Moen faucet, you must align the tabs at the end of the cartridge to allow for the insertion of the clip. The tabs must be at the 12 O'clock and 6 O'clock positions. The cartridge must also be in all the way or the clip will not fit

Single-handle tub/shower: knob turns but no water comes out.
Try removing the screw in center, and pull handle off. Check to see if maybe just inside of handle is stripped, or if it has a plastic insert with splines that are stripped. Thus just replace handle or insert or both. You can try turning it with vise grips or pliers carefully when handle off to see if tap itself is still good. My guess is a replacement handle and/or insert and you'll probably be good to go. Any hardware store should stock parts, reasonably priced.
Installed a new faucet and no water comes out
Since your question is so vague (is it a shower, tub/shower, lavatory, kit. sink or laundry tub faucet) I'd have to say that the flow restrictor in the aerators or showerhead is clogged up. Just unscrew and remove and either clean aerator or sh.head out and/or remove flow restrictor permanently. If that doesn't work turn off water and disconnect supply tubes from faucet and run them into a bucket and turn water back on to check for volume. If you have plenty of water at supplies then remove faucet and take defective faucet back to where it was bought and get another one!

How do you remove the
The Moen YB2824 is attached to the mounting bracket with a set screw through the base. You would simply need to loosen this set screw to remove item from the wall.
