CAN'T erase com.wondershare.helper_compact.plist no matter what !?...

  hi guys
  earlier today i installed a wondershare youtube download program called allmytube. it even comes w/ an uninstaller ..
  fooled around with it for a while but came to the conclusion that i wasn't about to buy it WITHOUT being able to fully try the greyed out options of the trial version so...out came the uninstaller & away it went - good riddance...
  after that & to make sure EVERYTHING related to it WAS gone i did as i usually do which is open a new Finder window, & write the app name in the search box, select the "+" next to the "save", under "Kind" i select "System files" & finally i select "are included"
   this usually brings up EVERYTHING pertaining to an app & then some..
  then it's just a question of selecting each file it shows that seems related, check the path to make sure it has something to do with what i uninstalled & only then do i trash them..
  this time a file showed up which no matter what i do i can't select, can't move to the trash, shows NO PATH so i can't find it ( already looked EVERYWHERE for it to no avail... ) & i'm at a loss what to do , if this is serious or not or !?.....
  please check the pics below :
  here it shows the path....
   here it doesn't ..
  & when i press cmd + i it shows this :
   besides all this when i double click on it these come up :
  clicking on delete alias prompts the same dialog window again, clicking on fix alias opens a "Select New Original" window problem is there's NOTHING remotely related to Allmytube or Wondershare in my computer except for this seemingly ''invisible'' plist...
  i also tried reinstalling the program again & removing it & it still did the same
  any suggestions on how to get rid of this would be most welcome - so far the computer doesn't show any signs of it affecting it's smooth operation but why keep it ?
   appreciate it, thanks

Launch the Terminal application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Terminal in the page that opens.
Triple-click the line below to select it, then drag or copy the text — do not type it — into the Terminal window and press return:
find Library -name com.wondershare* -ls
The command may take a noticeable amount of time to run. Wait for a new line ending in a dollar sign (“$”) to appear.
Post any lines of output that appear below what you entered — the text, please, not a screenshot.

    I've been having this problem for weeks and have found no solution to it. There are lots of other people with this issue too if you look back on the boards. I even e-mailed AND called Apple and have had no luck. I tried all the suggestions they gave me and all the ones I found on here- nothing worked. I even uninstalled and re-installed iTunes (boy was that a pain!) and no difference.
    The weird part is that I have an old laptop that works and if I buy music with the laptop I can download it with my regular computer buy buying does not work on my regular computer. That tells me it's not a connection issue. I can't get to my account either.
    I can't figure out why an issue that has kept so many people from purchasing a product has been ignored!

  • Logic X keeps creating tracks automatically. What can I do to stop this? No matter what I do logic x keeps popping up the create track window, and creates multiple piano tracks even if I click "Cancel".

    The window where you create a new track pops up. The one with "software instrument" or "audio" or "drummer" or "external midi" or "guitar of bass" keeps showing up on its own. Then I can choose to "Create" or "cancel" but no matter what I click, it creates a new track, then the process repeats over and over. I now have like 30 piano tracks that I don't want. And it doesn't stop . I'm going mad

  • Can't find com.apple.desktop.plist file in Preferences folder.

    I have three desktop spaces, and I have them randomly changing backgroud from a selection of pictures in a folder. To quickly find out which picture was currently use for each desktop, I have a AppleScript that returns some infomation within the com.apple.desktop.plist file. This has been working perfectly fine in Mountain Lion.
    However, after I installed the Mavericks (clean install from scratch), my script no longer works. The background images can be changed as before, but there's no com.apple.desktop.plist file exist anywhere in my hard drive.
    Does anyone run into similar problems as me? It's driving me nuts! I can't think of any reason that there shouldn't be such a file... Thank you very much!

    The returned file name from your terminal command "sqlite3 ~/Library/Application\ Support/Dock/desktoppicture.db '.dump' | grep jpg" is the file name of my current desktop picture "Earth and Moon.jpg".
    The returned file names from your script:
    set theResult to "Space 1 Wallpaper: ~/Pictures/Background/" & (do shell script"sqlite3 ~/Library/Application\\ Support/Dock/desktoppicture.db \"SELECT data.value FROM preferences INNER JOIN data on preferences.key=16 and preferences.picture_id=3 and preferences.data_id=data.ROWID\"") & "
    Space 2 Wallpaper: ~/Pictures/Background/" & (do shell script "sqlite3 ~/Library/Application\\ Support/Dock/desktoppicture.db \"SELECT data.value FROM preferences INNER JOIN data on preferences.key=16 and preferences.picture_id=5 and preferences.data_id=data.ROWID\"") & "
    Space 3 Wallpaper: ~/Pictures/Background/" & (do shell script "sqlite3 ~/Library/Application\\ Support/Dock/desktoppicture.db \"SELECT data.value FROM preferences INNER JOIN data on preferences.key=16 and preferences.picture_id=7 and preferences.data_id=data.ROWID\"")
    display dialog theResult buttons {"Done"} default button 1
    are
    Space 1 Wallpaper: ~/Pictures/Background/3439B
    Space 2 Wallpaper: ~/Pictures/Background/5244B
    Space 3 Wallpaper: ~/Pictures/Background/5244B
    The return from your terminal command "find ~/Pictures/iPhoto\ Library.photolibrary/Masters -name filename.jpg" is
    find: /Users/Peter/Pictures/iPhoto Library.photolibrary/Masters: No such file or directory
    The return from your terminal command "
    readlink -f ~/Library/Caches/com.apple.preference.desktopscreeneffect.desktop/69730752/DSKiPhotoRootSource-allPhotosAlbum/9419B" is
    readlink: illegal option -- f
    usage: readlink [-n] [file ...]
    I do have a little app (Script) which did exactly what I needed under OS X Mountain Lion but because under Mavericks Apple changed the location of the wallpaper information to a SQLite database this app is not working anymore. I could send you this app if you want but I do not know how to do this via this forum.
    Thanks again for your help.

  • Can't locate com.apple.PowerManagement.plist

    I'm having trouble with a 2007 macbook that keeps restarting from sleeping rather than waking up upon opening the lid and have read this can sometimes be fixed by deleting the com.apple.PowerManagement.plist file but I can't find it in the system folder. Only a "power management bundle." I'm on Snow Leopard for reference. Can anyone help with this? I don't have the computer in front of me personally so I'm just trying to pass it along to who I'm trying to help.

    Choose Go to Folder from the Finder's Go menu and provide ~/Library/Preferences/ as the path. If it isn't there, delete the ~ and go to that folder.

    Hey Adam, are you running 10.5.8? Reason I ask, on my SL machines I don't have a com.apple.bluetooth.plist in my ~/Library/Preferences it's in /Library/Preferences
    Just figured I'd clarify as the OP has 10.6.2 in their sig line. Why the location of the file changed, beyond me.

  • When I load Safari on my IPAD2, the web page comes up, but I can't scroll down the page. No matter what web page I go to the content stays darker than the navigation bar. This just started today. All other applications work fine.

    When I bring up Safari on my IPAD2, the web page comes up, but I can't scroll down the page. This just started today. No matter what web site I go to, the content is darker than the navigation pane.

    If it's happening on all sites, then assuming that it's Safari that you're using, have you tried clearing it's cache : Settings > Safari > Clear Cache (other browsers should have similar options, possibly within the actual app instead of within Settings). You could also try closing the app completely : from the home screen double-click the home button to bring up the taskbar, then press and hold any of the apps on the taskbar for a couple of seconds or so until they start shaking, then press the '-' in the top left of the Safari app (or whichever browser you're using) to close it, and touch any part of the screen above the taskbar so as to stop the shaking and close the taskbar.
    If that doesn't work then you could try a reset : press and hold both the sleep and home buttons for about 10 to 15 seconds (ignore the red slider), after which the Apple logo should appear - you won't lose any content, it's the iPad equivalent of a reboot.
    If it's only happening on a particular site then there may be content on that site that isn't supported on the iPad e.g. flash, java, silverlight

  • I can't install flash player at all, not matter what browser is in !

    Hi
    I have this annoying problem with my Flash Player, I can't install it no matter what i browser it is in. When eg. I have to play a video from youtube, I can't use IE (Internet Explorer) to play it in, but in Googles Chrome and in Mozillas Firefox, there it works without any problem.
    Another problem is also when I am going into www.adobe.com in IE, then it says - For the complete experience, please enable JavaScript in your browser. Thank you! , the script is active in the internet settings, I have check, but it is still not working.
    If I uninstall Flash Player totally, and I would like to  installed it again, I can't do it,, not matter what browser, it just stops, when iI try to install it . There is no problem installing or updating, Air, Shockwave. In this matter Flash Player will not cooperate at all, it will not let we installed it at all.
    New I have tryed is that I installed the new flash player 16 demo, there were no problem in the installation, but it will still work in IE. It still says - For the complete experience, please enable JavaScript in your browser. Thank you! on www.adobe.com and it still not works on youtube.com. The script is active in the internet settings, I have check, but it is still not working.
    I hope anymore is interresting in helping me in this annoying problem !

  • Can't get rid of prohibitory icon no matter what I try

    Every time I try to start up, no matter what technique I use -- 10.3 System disk startup, Command S, x, the darned thing keeps giving me the prohibitory icon. All peripherals are removed.
    It was working fine a few hours ago. What appeared to preceed it was having a problem with Word 2004, which kept freezing on me. I uninstalled and re-installed several times without getting it to work.
    What the heck can I try now?

  • Can't connect to Netflix at home no matter what I try

    I have an ipad 3rd gen wifi only that ever since updating to iOS6 has not been able to get onto netflix at home. I hoped updates would fix it, but it hasn't. I have looked up every suggestions on how to fix this and tried them all. I have reset the modem, changed the DNS, messed with the date, made sure I accept the cookies, restored to facotry settings and many, many other things. If it is anywhere in the first 10 pages of a google search, I have tried it. Nothing fixes it. It always says that it can't connect.
    What makes it even worse is that the Netflix app works on every other network I try, including the one at school where Netflix is blocked (or at least it is on the computers and laptops). It's only my home network where it won't connect. It has to be my home network, but I have no idea where to look to fix it and can't find any help online except to unplug the modem for five minutes (which did nothing). Can anyone give me an idea where and what to look for in my modum and/or router settings that might be causing this?
    All of my other apps can connect to the internet just fine. Netflix is the only one with a problem. Any help would be appreciated, thank you.

    Earthlink.
    And I know it is my home network. The problem is my provider has said they see nothing wrong with the connection (and my DVD player can connect just fine) and they say to contact netflix. Netflix says to contact them. I think at this point I just have to hunt the problem down myself. My problem is I have no idea where to look? Is there something specific I should look for/at when it comes to streaming on an ipad? If that is set wrong, could something be making it impossible to get on streaming? That's the information I am looking for. I just want to know where to start messing with the network to fix this. Does anyone know this?
