How to remove magicjack plus osx  10.7.5

Hello,
I am new to Mac and I am not a Unix system programmer.
I purchased a MagicJack Plus for my sister and I set it up using my new iMac for her. Now I would like to remove the setup software from my iMac as I do not like to leave extraneous software on my machine.  Also, MagicJack seems to be even more clueless than me, which I find VERY disturbing.
I.  I viewed and attempted to execut instructions outlined in "How do I uninstall magicJack from my computer?" on MJ wesite as follows:
Download CompleteUninstall.sh. After the download is complete, open a terminal window by navigating to /Applications/Utilities/Terminal.
In the Terminal Window, navigate to your download directory (usually Downloads) by typing cd Downloads and pressing enter. Next, type chmod+x CompleteUninstall.sh and press enter. Now type ./CompleteUninstall.sh and press enter again.
For reference the CompleteUninstall.sh script contains the following:
#!/bin/sh
# instalator files
rm -rf ~/.magicJack
rm -rf ~/MJInstlogs
rm -rf ~/Desktop/Start\ magicJack.app
# softphone files
rm -rf ~/Library/Preferences/magicJack
# WebKit cache
rm -rf ~/Library/Caches/magicJack
II.  This is results:
Last login: Tue Apr 23 11:36:11 on ttys000
Larrys-iMac:~ ldwalker$ cd Downloads
Larrys-iMac:Downloads ldwalker$ chmod+x CompleteUninstall.sh
-bash: chmod+x: command not found
Larrys-iMac:Downloads ldwalker$
The change ownership command failed, I presume because the path to the Unix Commands directory is not set? If so, how do I set it and then reset everything back to current defaults?
Thanks in advance for any help you can provide!

baltwo,
Thanks VERY much.......this solved my problem. 
I just cut and pasted the command into my terminal session.  I assumed the format was correct as the exact same command set format was used on several different web sites giving instructions on how to remove the magicjack software.
Amazing how incorrect info gets propagated around the web!

    I have this photo plus as my search engine in my IE for months and now I want to removed that but don't know how? Please help!

    This contains photos synced from your computer to your phone.  You must sync it off by connecting your phone to your computer, opening iTunes, clicking on the name of your phone, unchecking Sync Photos on the Photos tab of your iTunes sync settings, then clicking Apply at the bottom to sync your phone.

  • 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.

  • How do I remove Trojan horse OSX/FakeAlert.B codecm_uploader from my macbook?

    How do I remove Trojan horse OSX/FakeAlert.B codecm_uploader from my macbook? My AVG AntiVirus keep putting up a pop up window to say that it's blocked the threat from spreading and I've to consider deleting the infected file. When I search for the file, I can't find it.  It pops up literally every 30secs!

    First, you need to get rid of AVG. It may have alerted you to this, but in general it's not much good on the Mac.
    Second, that indicates that you are infected with the FkCodec, aka Codec-M, adware. See my Adware Removal Guide for instructions on removing it. Be aware that AVG might interfere with your attempts to remove it, thinking that it is protecting you.

  • Please explain me, how to remove an usb stick or memory chip? With experiences only in pc:s, I do not find on my first apple e.g. MacBook Air a solution. Until now I have succeeded to destroy one chip full of photos and - there's no life more in the port.

    Please explain me, how to remove an usb stick or memory chip? With experiences only in pc:s, I do not find on my first apple e.g. MacBook Air a solution. Until now I have succeeded to destroy one chip full of photos and - there's no life more in the port...
    Someone told me just to remove the chip in clicking it to the trash can and voilá - it would be done. But as I did so, on the screen appeared a text which let me know, that that way had been the wrong one...
    I should have clicked Finder plus something.... which I do not now remember but which was then not found behind the Finder.
    So please would someone be so kind and tell me, where I can find explanations for the most simple functions. The manual I got does not include a clue.
    Thank you!

    First make sure that no application is using or has open any files on the disk. Then:
    Click and drag the disk icon on the desktop to the trash. Wait for the system to recognize the action, and the icon should disappear from the desktop. It is then safe to remove the device.
    Alternatively, you can secondary click on the disk icon, and then primary click "Eject (name of disk)". Wait for the icon to disappear off the desktop, and then it is safe to remove the drive.
    Here is a detailed help document on the subject.

  • In the libary of iPhoto I do have double pictures only in the year 2006. Can someone please tell me how to remove the double pictures. I did rebuilt the libary but that solution did not help me any further.

    In the libary of iPhoto I do have double pictures only in the year 2006. Can someone please tell me how to remove the double pictures. I did rebuilt the libary but that solution did not help me any further.

    I think the warning is very clear.
    What warning? Where do you say that this plan you suggest will lose at least some, and possibly a whole lot of metadata, plus  the original files of edited photos. This is significant dataloss. And you should warn people that this is the case.
    While your metadata and originals may not be important to you, that is not necessarily the case for other users.
    Fourthly, and last, cleaning the iPhoto library should be done at least once per year
    This is nonsense. The iPhoto Library has no need of "cleaning" and certainly not in any way that trashes a whole lot of data.
    I'm very impressed that you assess the application based on the sound of the name. It's not a common way to review applications, but I'm sure it has some merit.
    FWIW it has been recommended on this - and other - sites for many years and has proven safe and effective.

    The following comes from user stevejobsfan0123. I have made minor changes to adapt to this presentation.
    Fix Some Browser Pop-ups That Take Over Safari.
    Common pop-ups include a message saying the government has seized your computer and you must pay to have it released (often called "Moneypak"), or a phony message saying that your computer has been infected, and you need to call a tech support number (sometimes claiming to be Apple) to get it resolved. First, understand that these pop-ups are not caused by a virus and your computer has not been affected. This "hijack" is limited to your web browser. Also understand that these messages are scams, so do not pay any money, call the listed number, or provide any personal information. This article will outline the solution to dismiss the pop-up.
    Quit Safari
    Usually, these pop-ups will not go away by either clicking "OK" or "Cancel." Furthermore, several menus in the menu bar may become disabled and show in gray, including the option to quit Safari. You will likely have to force quit Safari. To do this, press Command + option + esc, select Safari, and press Force Quit.
    Relaunch Safari
    If you relaunch Safari, the page will reopen. To prevent this from happening, hold down the 'Shift' key while opening Safari. This will prevent windows from the last time Safari was running from reopening.
    This will not work in all cases. The shift key must be held at the right time, and in some cases, even if done correctly, the window reappears. In these circumstances, after force quitting Safari, turn off Wi-Fi or disconnect Ethernet, depending on how you connect to the Internet. Then relaunch Safari normally. It will try to reload the malicious webpage, but without a connection, it won't be able to. Navigate away from that page by entering a different URL, i.e. www.apple.com, and trying to load it. Now you can reconnect to the Internet, and the page you entered will appear rather than the malicious one.

    From user Joe Bailey comes this equally useful advice:
    The facts are:
    1. There is no anti-malware software that can detect 100% of the malware out there.
    2. There is no anti-malware that can detect everything targeting the Mac.
    3. The very best way to prevent the most attacks is for you as the user to be aware that
         the most successful malware attacks rely on very sophisticated social engineering
         techniques preying on human avarice, ****, and fear.
    4. Internet popups saying the FBI, NSA, Microsoft, your ISP has detected malware on
        your computer is intended to entice you to install their malware thinking it is a
        protection against malware.
    5. Some of the anti-malware products on the market are worse than the malware
        from which they purport to protect you.
    6. Be cautious where you go on the internet.
    7. Only download anything from sites you know are safe.
    8. Avoid links you receive in email, always be suspicious even if you get something
        you think is from a friend, but you were not expecting.
    9. If there is any question in your mind, then assume it is malware.

  • MacBook Pro not recognizing MagicJack Plus

    I conncected the MagicJack Plus into my macbook pro and successfully registered my product. I went through all the steps and received my phone number. After that it all went downhill.
    I disconnected the magicjack and connected it to my router. That wasn't working so I connected it back to my pro and boom. It didn't recognize it and nothing would pop up like it should. I followed all the steps in removing the software and anything related to MagicJack and it still does not work. My phone number and account are activited. The blue light turns one and everything seems to work fine. I don't know what it is.

  • 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.

    Yahoo Messenger by default installs a number of extras such as the Yahoo toolbar and a browser plus plugin. There are a couple of places to check to uninstall these. First is the add-ons manager, for details on uninstalling via the add-ons manager see the [[Uninstalling add-ons]] article. If the Yahoo toolbar is not listed there, you can check the Windows control panel. The BrowerPlus plugin will probably also be listed in the control panel.
    You should be able to remove it from the Windows control panel.
    * From the Start menu, select Control Panel
    * Open the list of installed programs:
    ** If in icon view, click Programs and Features
    ** If in category view, under "Programs", click Uninstall a program
