I've got a runaway process. How can I stop it from taking CPU?

I was checking my system.log file, as it's taking up a gigabyte of space, and I saw a ton of these messages:
Dec 25 21:39:32 Andrew-Unsworths-MacBook-Pro-15 com.apple.launchd.peruser.502[273] (com.splashtop.streamer.SRServiceAgent[99078]): Exited with exit code: 1
Dec 25 21:39:52 Andrew-Unsworths-MacBook-Pro-15 com.apple.launchd.peruser.502[273] (com.splashtop.streamer.SRServiceAgent): Throttling respawn: Will start in 10 seconds
As far as I can remember, I've never installed splashtop. If there is a way to get rid of whatever's causing this, please help! It's taking up hard disk space AND CPU!

Also, this
(com.splashtop.streamer.SRServiceAgent[99169]): posix_spawn("/Applications/Splashtop Streamer.app/Contents/MacOS/SRServiceAgent", ...): No such file or directory
in the console

    How can I stop Hotmail from pushing all my old emails to my I-phone?
    I have just got an I-Phone and linked it with my Hotmail account but it keeps pushing through 50 emails to my inbox so its always showing 50 messages. How can I get only my new email sent to my phone?

    Since this is an Outlook question, you should ask over on the Microsoft Office for Mac forums.

  • HT5361 Why is that when I am composing a new message do I end up with multiple versions of my message I am composing up in my Google Trash mailbox?  How can I stop this from happening?

    Why is that when I am composing a new message do I end up with multiple versions of my message I am composing up in my Google Trash mailbox?  How can I stop this from happening?

    It was very hard to see what the box says because the message displays for less than one second. However, I was able to record it with my iphone and pause it until I got a shot of the message. The box says the following:
    "Do you want the application “java” to accept incoming network connections?
    Clicking deny may limit the application’s behavior. This setting can be changed in the Firewall pane of Security preferences."
    I did make some changes. I will see if it works.
    Thank you!!!

  • How can I stop Firefox from opening (to "File Not Found") when opening my Opera browser?

    Ever since I installed Opera 10.61 on my new computer (Windows 7 Ultimate operating system), whenever I open Opera, Firefox opens one second later with the following error message:
    '''File not found '''
    Firefox can't find the file at /C:/Users/Nasheed/AppData/Local/Opera/Opera/temporary_downloads/client-en.xml.
    * Check the file name for capitalization or other typing errors.
    * Check to see if the file was moved, renamed or deleted.
    TRY AGAIN.
    <nowiki>****************************************************</nowiki><br />
    This happens EVERY TIME I OPEN THE OPERA BROWSER. How can I stop this from happening? I'm stumped.
    [EXTRA INFO - I was unable to enable Firefox to access my previous profile on the new computer (despite putting the old profile in the appropriate Mozilla Firefox folder. So, there are now two profiles in that location.
    After reading the answer to another forum member's question, I attempted to resolve the problem using Profile Manager, but I was unable to locate the Profile Manager. The Windows "Search" feature is not enabled on my new computer (nor can it be enabled from the Customize Start Menu options).]

    Thank you for your response, Cor-el.
    I had Opera set as my default browser since this began happening. I changed my default browser back to Firefox mainly because having Firefox open one or two seconds every time I open Opera was/is such a nuisance.
    I believe this problem began because I attempted to manually transfer the files from my old computer to the new one (via the backed up files in my external drive). I was unfamiliar with Windows 7 when I did this. Microsoft changed the file set up from what I had been used to in Windows XP. I used XP for six years before being exposed to Windows 7 (I never had Vista).
    I'm almost sure this problem has something to do with where I placed the application data when I was trying to reestablish the program set up on the new computer.

  • I do not want to upgrade to 7.0, I am attending online college and the upgraded version does not work with my school. How can I stop Firefox from upgrading? I have to keep uninstalling the upgrade and installing the old one.

    How can I stop Firefox from automatically upgrading? My on-line college is not compatible with the upgraded version. I have to keep uninstalling the new one and reinstalling the old one.

    It's not a good idea to allow websites to redirect to another site until you know for sure the original site is trustworthy.
    But if you still want to do it (again not a good idea).
    Tools>Options>Advanced>General - In Accessibility, uncheck "warn me when web sites try to redirect..." option.

  • HT1766 Hi, I share an iTunes account with my wife. Sometimes she gets my iMessages and I don't and vice versa. Also if people face time me it goes to her phone. How can I stop this from happening?

    You can share the same Apple ID in
    Settings > iTunes & App Store > Apple ID: here
    But for all other Apple services like:
    FaceTime, iMessage, iCloud, etc, one of you should use a different Apple ID.

    When I run iTunes, it often tries to open in another open User account, causing distracting Windows warning tones.  How can I stop it from trying to automatically open in the other account?

    Close iTunes before switching profiles or disable fast user switching.

  • How can I stop iPhoto from reidentifying faces I have already 'crossed', while still being able to identify and sort new faces.

    iPhoto has detected faces of people I dont know, in my 'iPhoto faces' whenever I click the cross in the corner of the face (when sorting faces) the face temporarily disappears, but once I have uploaded a fresh batch of photos (and want to identify new faces) it automatically re-identifies the old photos that I don't want to have to sort again. How can I stop iPhoto from reidentifying faces I have already 'crossed', while still being able to identify and sort new faces.

    Thank you, that makes sense (I think!) However, I need to be able to tell iPhoto who the people identified in my photos are, does that make sense? How do I identify the people in my new photos without clicking 'find faces'. I know that button searches through my photos to find faces, but it also gets me to the place where I identify the faces as my friends and family, is there a shortcut to get to that place without clicking 'find faces'? That is what I really need, please help!!

  • When syncing iPhone 5s pictures, how can I stop it from backing that album up on my phone?

    I want to delete songs off of my computr because it's taking up unnecessary space, but how can I do this without them being removed from my iPhone when I sync it next?
    As given, removing from the library causes the songs to be removed during sync. So the space taken up is neccessary... What would you do if your iPhone where lost, stolen, damaged or needed to be restored?
    If you ned more room for storage buy a bigger drive. In fact buy two, one to use as a backup for your library and all your other important files.

  • How can I stop iMovie from making thumbnails of clips from past projects when opening the program to digitize new clips for new project. i have looked in the preferences and couldn't figure out what to disable.

    How can I stop iMovie from making thumbnails of clips from past projects when first opening the program to digitize new clips for a new project. It takes forever for it and is very annoying. I have looked in the preferences and couldn't figure out what would disable this problem.

    You do not need to move your cursor much when pressing the mouse button to cause the tab to tear-off/tear-away into a new tab. No "sensitivity" setting that I am aware of. The tab in the new window can be dragged back to the original window.
    To disable the feature, install this: https://addons.mozilla.org/en-US/firefox/addon/bug489729-disable-detach-and-t/
    *Read the information on the above page
    *Set options for the add-on: Add-ons > Extensions, click Options next to the specific Extension (the 2 options are defined/explained in the above page).

    Did you check the network setting?
    Sounds that you have set to connect automatically when a connection is not available.

  • How can i stop iTunes from Auto rating my songs??

    How can i stop iTunes from auto rating my songs in my library?? I have my library very organized and 90% of the time when i listen to music i play "My Top Rated" Playlist on shuffle. The only time i give stars ratings to my songs is for my favourite songs which i give 5 star and every other song is just left with no stars. For some reason iTunes is giving songs i have never played or i dont like 5 Stars and rewining my playlists. I have tried erasing all the stars from my entire library and since doing this a week ago, again (for the 4th time in a year) having a library with not 1 song with any star ratings, all of a sudden i now have 329 random songs with 5 stars again??????
    This is really getting to me as i love my music and love iTunes and everything apple but seriously there has to be away to stop this so i can have my old playlists back!
    Thanks hope some one can help

    One reason itunes will start "at regular intervals" will be if you have an iphone that has sync via wifi enabled. I had the problem following an upgrade to iOS 5.
