How to remove automatically launched items/apps?

Sorry if this is a duplicate question.
Actually i didn't find best answer for disabling items that automatically lauched when osx starting.
I've been removed all startup items from login startup items (System Preferences - User & Groups - Login Items).
Nothing found on StartupItems folder (Library - Startup Items) too.
But some items still automatically launched on Mac start (such as Splashtop Streamer, Busycall).
How to remove those startup items without completely uninstalling them?
Any help would by appreciated.

Those are system modifications, and if you want them to do what they do, they have to load at startup. If you don't like what they do, remove them according to the developer's instructions, or refer to the developer for support.

Adobe Creative Cloud (Desktop) does not work properly. The application is blocked : it could not be launch neither stopped. I'm on MAC Yosemite OS, does anyone know how to remove it properly or to force its stop. It does not appear in the launched applications.

I received no error message. The application was just trying to find applications unsuccessfully.
I am using MAC OS 10.10.1
I tried to uninstall the application but it seems that a kind of deamon is still installed thus providing me to reinstall properly. Do you know where are the elements to remove in order to get my machine just like before ?
Otherwise I would have to reinstall everything and this would be a pain.
Thanks for your help.

How to remove PSE 2 from a Mac?

Several years ago I purchased Photoshop Elements 2 on a CD and installed it on my Macintosh (OS X). Recently the program began acting oddly, saying "The command you entered could not be completed because the file is locked" even when the file was clearly not locked, and even when I had not selected any commands.
Two weeks ago I purchased an Epson scanner and it came with a CD of Photoshop Elements. Assuming that it was a newer version, I installed it from the CD. (It was in fact PSE 2). Now when I try to launch the application I get the splash screen, a message about loading plugins, brushes, fonts, etc., then the program crashes. "The application Photoshop Elements 2 has unexpectedly quit" appears on the screen. I have tried reinstalling from the older CD and the newer CD, moving the application folder to the trash and reinstalling, hunting down and removing the Adobe preference files and application support files both in my user account's Library and the root directory's Library, copying in the files from my backup drive, all to no avail. There is no Uninstaller on the CD.  
Can you tell me how to remove all remnants of this program from my Mac so that I can install it anew and use it? 
My operating system is OS X 10.4.11 "Tiger".

I have followed your advice, but the problem persists.
I trashed the application, the original user account preference files, the hard drive Library application support files for Photoshop Elements, and everything else Spotlight could find with Photoshop or PS2 in its name. I created a new user account, installed the application from the CD, and repaired Permissions. Launching the application brought up the splash screen, loaded all of the paintbrushes etc., then "The application Photoshop Elements quit unexpectedly". The Report file begins with the following information:
     Command: Photoshop Elements 2.0
     Path:    /Applications/Adobe Photoshop Elements 2/Photoshop Elements 2.0/Contents/MacOS/Photoshop Elements 2.0
     Parent: WindowServer [14119]
     Version: 2.0 (2.0)
     PID:    14222
     Thread: 0
     Exception: EXC_BAD_ACCESS (0x0001)
     Codes:      KERN_PROTECTION_FAILURE (0x0002) at 0x00000000
and goes on to list more details in Unix-speak.
Do you have any other ideas to try?

How to remove the following from N97?

Hi,
I reported on these on Ovi Store and used there "report issue", but regarding these default things that are annoyingly useless on my device by default I couldn't complain there.
I need to remove Boingo, Qik & JoikuSpot. Every application on N97 has Options>Organize>Delete except these. Now, I noticed these are like shortcuts and not even an application or widget. So, how to remove/uninstall them?
Thanks.
Message Edited by mrmachd on 04-Jul-2009 04:27 PM

'Most of these applications will be removable only after you install them (i.e. go through the setup process).'
Are you for real? Or maybe you are a Boingo agent!
If you launch Boingo - even out of curiosity - it will install a locked access point at the highest priority in Connectivity/Destinations. Having done this quite innocently, the phone then could not connect to any data network - WiFi or Packet. The access point cannot be removed or edited. The only remedies to this are either relegate the access point to the lowest priority or do a hard reset on the phone. As I don't like having my phone hijacked by unwanted software, I chose the hard reset.
This is an error of judgement by Nokia - a lack of respect for their customers' choice of what **bleep** they want to keep on their phones and what **bleep** they want rid of.

How to remove service names

One thing about oracle that I am unable to understand is that when we uninstall oracle, all the service names for its different services stay there in the services section in WindowsXP. I know how to remove the instance name services, but I am unable all the other services. Does anyone know how to remove all those services?

a launch daemon should normally have a .plist extension. did you skip it? that would explain why the command gives an error.
the command you are using is basically correct. you don't need sudo because the daemon is in your home directory. also, to unload it so that it doesn't load automatically on the next login you should use -w switch. this will add a 'disabled' flag to the daemon. the syntax is
launchctl unload -w /path/to/daemon
However, as others have said the best thing is to trash the daemon and log out/in. you don't need it for anything as you've removed the application that created it.

How to remove project customizations

I have a problem viewing a project file on a particular Project 2007 installation. The problem is the Grant chart is always overlapping the task schedules when the file is launched. However, I don't have this problem when the file is opened on another computer
or even in the same computer with other user logged on. I believed the problem is the customization the user made to the Project installation but I am not sure how to remove it so that the file can be viewed properly. I tried uninstalling and reinstalling
project on that computer and it didn't help. Any idea?
Thansk

Hello,
You can reset Project 2007 to it's vanilla configuration with the following steps:
Log in as the affected user
Ensure the users folder options are set to "Show hidden files and folders"
Ensure MS Project is closed
Assuming your using Windows 7, navigate to C:\Users\[username]\AppData\Roaming\Microsoft\MS Project\12\1033"
Rename the file "Global.mpt" as "Old Global.mpt"
Restart MS Project
RESULT: Project 2007 will now have reverted back to its vanilla state.
Largely the same for 2010, except there are some settings that are no longer contained within the global, such as the ribbon, and some of the project options settings.
Hope that helps,
Andrew

Duplicate Creative Cloud icons in Mac OS X toolbar, how to remove?

Does anyone know how to remove the old Creative Cloud icon from the Mac menubar? Both are there for some reason. The one on the left is a previous design version but if you click update goes to the latest one which is on the right. Couldn't find any solution from Google or searching here.

Follow the instructions below to remove.
I launched Photoshop and chose Help>Updates. This launched the AAM application. Then I clicked Preferences and turned off the option to display updates in the menu bar.
Old updater shows one update, Creative Cloud none

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]) 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/

How to remove the sidebar folders

i would like to know how to remove the sidebar folder under the places section. reason being i have a folder that i previously place it on the sidebar but now i cant click that folder anymore. therefore i want to remove it.

Navigate to Users/username/Library/Preferences and find the file named, "com.apple.sidebarlists.plist" and move it to the trash. Empty the trash. Then restart you computer and the sidebar menu will be cleared of all added aliases. You will have to create them again.
If this doesn't work, launch the Terminal.app in the Applications/Utilities folder.
In the terminal type: (or copy and paste this command) "cd /Library/Preferences" (without the quotation marks) after the promt line and hit return. This will bring you to the directory with the "com.apple.sidebarlists.plist" file.
Then type: "rm com.apple.sidebarlists.plist" (without the quotation marks). This will remove that file.
Then restart you computer and the sidebar menu will be cleared of all added aliases. You will have to create them again.

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.

How to Remove Default Application

Can anyone tell me how to remove a default application that opens a certain file? I'd like OS X to prompt me to choose which application to use each time a certain new file is opened. It seems once you've set a default application it does not allow you to revert to the old setting. Is there a way to do this? Thanks!

There doesn't seem to be a way to set "none" as the default application. OS X works very hard to assign an app to every file it can, but sometimes, as Jim has discovered, it gets it wrong. This seems to be most often because apps tell the OS what they can open & some older ones don't do it quite right, causing OS X to guess about some file types & incorrectly assigning them to the app.
Fixing this would be tricky. Individual files don't tell the OS what app to use unless you change the opening app for that file alone. If you use "Change All" that info is removed from the file (if it was there) & instead recorded in a preference file. But generally, the defaults are stored in the Launch Services database, which the OS maintains automatically.
It is possible to get the OS to rebuild that database, but doing so just fixes any corruption by once again checking the apps, so the same wrong guesses come back to bug you.
A few of us have been discussing Launch Services, the .plist, & how it works in another topic (http://discussions.apple.com/thread.jspa?threadID=258306) but as yet, it offers no answers that would help here.

How to remove OSX.Flashback-8?

I have been infected with a OSX.Flashback-8 based on ClamXav. I need help removing it. I am not a Unix user, so I am having trouble finding and removing files from another user account. Please help.
Here is a summary of what has happened in order:
1- Skype would give an error "Skype quit unexpectedly".
2- Then I noticed Office gave the same error.
3- I joined the Skype quit discussion: https://discussions.apple.com/thread/3080937?start=15&tstart=0
4- Disk utility also found and repaired disk permissions. (see more on this on the previous thread)
5- Based on advice I received from folks on that site; I installed ClamXav. (Sophos wasn't finding anything).
6- Then using Terminal I did:
bash-3.2$ ls -a /Users/Shared
.                       .libgmalloc.dylib       SC Info
..                      .localized
.DS_Store               CV-CoverLetter
bash-3.2$ ls -a ~/
.CFUserTextEncoding
.DS_Store
.MacOSX
.Trash
.Xauthority
.anyconnect
.bash_history
.dropbox
.fontconfig
.null
.serverauth.982
.swt
Desktop
Documents
Downloads
Dropbox
...followed-by all my personal folders in this location.
7- I found out "This is almost a sure sign of infection by the Flashback Trojan. "
8- ClamXav found a "heuristics.phishing.email.spoofeddomain" in an 1469.emlx IMAP email account.
9- Current day:
My problem got worse. I moved /Users/Shared/.libgmalloc.dylib into another directory.
bash-3.2$ cd /Users/Shared
bash-3.2$ mv .libgmalloc.dylib ~/Documents/Quarantine
It locked me and I couldn't do anything else. Got these messages.
dyld: could not load inserted library: /Users/Shared/.libgmalloc.dylib
Trace/BPT trap
bash-3.2$ ls -a /Documents/Quarantine
dyld: could not load inserted library: /Users/Shared/.libgmalloc.dylib
Trace/BPT trap
bash-3.2$ ls -a ~/
dyld: could not load inserted library: /Users/Shared/.libgmalloc.dylib
I tried rebooting. Now I can't even log in anymore. I created another admin account and am trying to change users on Unix shell to log in as the initial user and try to move back the .libgmalloc.dylib.
10- I am running ClamXav on the second admin user account I created. It found: OSX.Flashback-8
Now, I really need help figuring out how to remove this, and access my first admin account.
I am very new to Unix. Have been trying "su username" but it doesn't accept my password. Can you possibly send me a short script to get me to:
1- switch users to the old user account, so I can access the files
2- view and move the .libgmalloc.dylib file into the old location.
3- tell me the way to remove OSX.Flashback-8?
My plan is to log in to the old account, delete all files.
Alternatively, can you tell me how to:
- Remove this user completely.
- OR go back to the original factory settings and start all over.
I am not worried about losing data. All was backed-up.
Please help. I really want to be done with this issue once and for all.
Thanks much

You installed a variant of what’s commonly called the “Flashback” malware, although the name is obsolete.
If you’re certain you know when that happened, and you back up with Time Machine or something similar, you can save yourself a lot of time by restoring your whole system from the most recent snapshot taken before it was infected. Then take Steps 7, 8, and 10 below.
How can you tell when the infection took place? All you can be sure of is that you were infected some time before the problems started. You may have visited a blog that prompted you to install some kind of software, or a “certificate.” If you remember doing that recently, mention it in a reply, but don’t post a link.
If you don’t know when you were infected, there's no easy, reliable way to remove the malware, because it's constantly changing. There are differences of opinion on this site as to the best of course of action, so you should do your own research before deciding how to proceed.
I suggest you take the following steps:
1. Back up all data to at least two different devices, if you haven't already done so.
2. Boot from your recovery partition (if running Mac OS X 10.7 or later) or your installation disc (if running an earlier version of the Mac OS), launch Disk Utility, and erase the startup volume. This action will destroy all data on the volume, so you must be sure of your backups.
3. Install the Mac OS.
4. Reboot and go through the initial setup process to create an account with the same name as your old one. Don’t import anything from your backups at this stage.
5. If running Mac OS X 10.6.x or earlier, run Software Update. You may have to run it more than once to fully update your system.
6. Restore the contents of the top-level subfolders of your home folder except “Library” from the most recent backup. The Library folder may contain components of the malware. It’s best not to restore anything from there. If you must do so, restore only files, not folders, and only if (a) they’re visible in the Finder, and (b) you know what they are, and (c) they haven’t been altered. Don’t restore anything in the home subfolder Library/LaunchAgents, if it exists, or any hidden files or folders, no matter where they are.
7. If you’re running Mac OS X 10.5.8 or earlier, launch Safari and select Safari ▹ Preferences… ▹ Security from the menu bar. Uncheck the box labeled Enable Java. Because of known bugs, Java in those OS versions is unsafe to use on the Internet. (Note: I’m not referring to JavaScript, which is unrelated to Java, despite the similar names.) If you’re running Mac OS 10.6.8 or later, you should still disable the Java web plugin unless you really need it. Few websites have legitimate Java content nowadays. If you encounter one that does, enable Java temporarily.
8. Change every Internet password you have, starting with banking passwords. Check all financial accounts for unauthorized transactions. Take this step only after you’ve secured your system in the preceding steps, not before.
9. Reinstall your third-party software from fresh downloads or original media, not from backups which may be contaminated.
10. If you use any third-party web browsers, disable Java in their preferences. As with step 7, this step is mandatory if you’re running any version of Mac OS X older than 10.6. Otherwise it’s optional, but recommended.
