How to remove daemons left by an uninstalled app?

Hi folks, Can anyone advise how to remove this process that runs every 10 seconds on my Mac?
05/12/2010 22:00:53 com.apple.launchd.peruser.501[190] (de.novamedia.NML2NDeviceObserver) Throttling respawn: Will start in 10 seconds
05/12/2010 22:01:03 com.apple.launchd.peruser.501[190] (de.novamedia.NML2NDeviceObserver[647]) posix_spawn("/Applications/launch2net/launch2net.app/Contents/MacOS/NML2NDevice Observer.app/Contents/MacOS/NML2NDeviceObserver", ...): No such file or directory
05/12/2010 22:01:03 com.apple.launchd.peruser.501[190] (de.novamedia.NML2NDeviceObserver[647]) Exited with exit code: 1
Thanks,
Keith..

Since it's being (re)launched by launchd there should be a launchd configuration file that tells launchd what to load.
Once you identify that you could either unload the file to stop launchctl running it, or just remove the file and reboot.
The file is likely called de.novamedia.NML2NDeviceObserver.plist in either /Library/LaunchDaemons/ or /System/Library/LaunchDaemons/

  • HT1918 How to remove my credit card from my App Store Account?

    How I remove my credit card from my Apps Store Account??
    I want to avoid unwanted purcharses from my nephew.... Someone can help me?
    I know it's possible to "upgrade" one account adding credit card, I can not find a way to remove it.

    you can't from the iPad.
    Go to iTunes on a computer, log in with your apple ID and select 'account'.
    After that , select 'payment method' and select 'none'.
    Good luck
    PS: reply if you're having trouble. You use mac or windows?

  • How to remove my credit card from the App Store

    How to remove my credit card from the App Store

    I used a pre-loaded credit card so when it ran out i had problems, primarily because it wont let me download or update anything until the "billing problem with the last transaction" was resolved. I dont really care if the purchase goes through but i want to be able to update stuff again and it wont give me the option to select 'none' under payment type. do i have to put another card on there just so i can "resolve the billing problem" and then i have  to take it off again or is there a way around this or is it a never ending cycle?

  • How to remove my payment option on iTunes App Store and iTunes on the iPhone?

    I've had this problem many times and eventually it would just work out after a week or so but I'm tired of that so here's what happens: I use prepaid credit cards for iTunes (I've also used a real credit card and had the same problem) and when they max out or run out of funds it will ask me to verify my payment information. So I sign in and it takes me to the page to update the info I update it to make sure there wasn't just an error and if it says something is wrong I know it's maxed/out of funds. And I'm not allowed to download any apps (including free ones and updates for apps I already own) while this happens. There is no option to remove my payment option, before after about a week of continuously returning to the payment page everytime I try to download/update an app a "none" option will appear below the VISA, MASTERCARD and AMEX credit card type however the option is never there for around the first week and is very frustrating. So how do I get the none option to appear ? Or remove a used/maxed credit/pre paid credit card ?

    iTunes Store: Accepted forms of payment - http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5552 - "The available payment methods vary by country, but typically you can use: Credit cards, iTunes Cards,  iTunes Store Gift Certificates, Content Codes, Store credit (including Allowance Account balances), ClickandBuy, PayPal" - No specific mention of debit cards though older documents no longer on Apple website showed they at least used to be accepted in some countries (not USA).
    For India - http://www.apple.com/legal/internet-services/itunes/in/terms.html#SALE  But it isn't very specific.

  • How to remove unwanted contacts in the Messages app

    im having a problem with the messages application. everytime i want to start a new chat and look for a certain name my old Icloud contacts pop up. i always click the and press on "remove ___ from chat" but it only works for like 5 mins then they pop up again. its really annoying because i always send pictures to my phone using the Share/Messages and i always think i could end up sharing it to one of those unwanted contacts. ive done everything possible to remove them i even made a new icloud account but its no use. not even my phone has those contacts anymore i dont know why its doing that. any suggestions?

    Hi Tidbits,
    I ended up going to Best Buy, where I got my LG G3 Verizon phone. The Tech tried everything to correct the duplication, but could not find how to do it. He deleted everything, and went back to factory settings. Darn if the duplicates didn't come back.
    He went to my Verizon account, and went to the Verizon Cloud. Clicked on Contacts, and there were all the duplicate contacts. He deleted the duplications, leaving the original for each contact. BINGO the problem was solved.
    I am using the Standard Messaging instead of Verizon messaging Plus. The Tech said that if I had been using Using Verizon Messaging Plus this may not of happened. I just down want the added cost of Messaging Plus.
    Thanks for the response.

  • How to remove photos from the new photos app (os x Yosemite) from one mac without (accidentally) deleting them on my other mac?

    I've upgraded from iPhoto to Photos app on my MBP. All the pictures from my main mac got uploaded to the iCloud. I also upgraded to Photos on my older mac (it has limited HD  space) and all the pictures started being downloaded to it. I went to preferences (on the older mac) and turned off the downloading, photo stream, etc. but the pictures are still there. I'm afraid to hit delete because I don't want them to magically disappear from my main mac.
    All I want, is to remove them from my old mac to free up the space.

    If you turned off or uncheck iCloud Photo Library and My Photo Stream in the Photos app preference window, then the delete should not sync up to the cloud. Also, until you empty the 'Recently Deleted' container, the images are still on your Mac:
    https://help.apple.com/photos/mac/1.0/?lang=en#/pht3bfab2f96
    Deleted photos and video aren’t immediately removed from your library; they’re placed in the Recently Deleted album, where they remain for the number of days shown, and then are deleted. You can recover the items before that period of time (see the next task). If you have iCloud Photo Library turned on, the photos may remain in iCloud up to 40 days and then are removed from all your devices that use iCloud Photo Library. If you’re not using iCloud Photo Library, your deleted photos are removed from your Mac only.

  • How to remove Apple ID password when updating apps?

    This may be a stupid question but my iPhone asks me for a password for every App I update unless I click Update All then it will only request my apple id once.
    Anyway, how can I get rid of this?

    Thanks for the reply. I've managed to find it myself, settings - general - restrictions was turned on and it stated require password immediately.

  • How to remove update notification for an unwanted app?

    Hi, recently, I got a notification to update an app I never purchased ("Nyan Cat: Lost In Space"). I checked with Apple support services, I searched that app on my hard drive and in my iTunes and App Store history, it doesn't appear anywhere. But it's still standing here in the App Store app update section, with a red badge on the icon, inviting me to update this app that has never installed on any of my drives. It's really annoying, is there something I can do to get rid of that crap?

    Thanks for your help Dah•veed. I thought that'd be easier to solve but I'll go to an Apple Store.

  • Question: How to remove accidental Icons

    I was selecting Email the other day and accidently dragged it from my launcher bar into the app area.  Now I can't get rid of it at all from any of the app screens.  I certainly don't need 2 links for Email.  Anyone know how to remove it without deleting the Email app alltogether?
    Post relates to: Pre p100eww (Sprint)

    Pressing on the Orange button and tapping on the Icon you want to remove will ask you to delete. This only works for links, contacts, and applications you installed.

    Yeah, I remember someone posted that solution a long time
    ago. It seems if you load a file with the same name the cache
    doesn't
    know any better and adjusts the download size to the smaller
    one. Maybe it's a good way to do it! Could it be a way to remove an
    mp3 from someone's cache after it plays? hmmmm Will have to
    do more testing.

    How to remove black "blocked plug-in" window that opens with iPhoto. It covers iPhoto and everything under it. I've right and left clicked the black window, restarting the computer, shutting down the computer, but the window always appears when I open iPhoto and it will not move or go away. It stays on my screen (covering my desktop icons) even after I quit iPhoto. How can I get it off my screen?

    Which version if iPhoto and MacOS X do you have?
    Do you have any iPhoto plug-ins  installed?
    Open the folder /Library/Application Support/iPhoto/Plugins/
    To navigate to that folder, open the folder "Library" directly on your Macintosh HD, then inside the Library folder go to Application Support, then iPhoto.  Is there anything installed?

  • Why can't anyone tell me how to remove all those little "!" in the left column all at once or at least sort them so I can mark them and then delete them?

    Why can't anyone tell me how to remove all those little "!" in the left column all at once or at least sort them so I can mark them and then delete them?

    This happens if the file is no longer where iTunes expects to find it. Possible causes are that you or some third party tool has moved, renamed or deleted the file, or that the drive it lives on has had a change of drive letter. It is also possible that iTunes has changed from expecting the files to be in the pre-iTunes 9 layout to post-iTunes 9 layout,or vice-versa, and so is looking in slightly the wrong place.
    Select a track with an exclamation mark, use Ctrl-I to get info, then cancel when asked to try to locate the track. Look on the summary tab for the location that iTunes thinks the file should be. Now take a look around your hard drive(s). Hopefully you can locate the track in question. If a section of your library has simply been moved, or a drive letter has changed, it should be possible to reverse the actions.
    Alternatively, as long as you can find a location holding the missing files, then you should be able to use my FindTracks script to reconnect them to iTunes.
    If, on the otherhand, you've been cleaning up your media from Explorer rather than iTunes and just want to eliminate the now broken links, use Tunes Folder Watch with its option to check for dead tracks on startup.

    It is the orientation lock. To de-activate, double click the home button and scroll to the left until you see the same lock within a circle. Tap it to turn off the lock
