My ‘Console’ (Applications ->Utilities->Console) where showing a lot of issues related to a old, long gone program
The issue above was related to a program I once installed called’ SyncMate’, this program was clearly not uninstalled the properly.
(Launchd is a unix service which load/unload daemons or programs)
The fix this , start the “terminal” and launch the ‘launchctl’ command
launchctl list
This will give you list of autostart services (not programs)
Notice the line marked – this relates to my error,
Start your ‘Terminal’ and remove the deamon with:
launchctl remove com.Eltima.SyncMateServer
You could run launchctl list once again to make sure the deamon is gone.
Last step is to remove the plist related to this in the ‘LaunchAgents’ folder.
(or from Finder choose “Go to folder ” from the “GO” Menu)
In terminal cd to:
/Library/LaunchAgents
I got several files there – the one related to my issue is called
syncmateStarter.plist
Delete this.
Other places to look are:
~/Library/LaunchAgents Per-user agents provided by the user.
/Library/LaunchAgents Per-user agents provided by the administrator.
/Library/LaunchDaemons System wide daemons provided by the administrator.
/System/Library/LaunchAgents Mac OS X Per-user agents.
/System/Library/LaunchDaemons Mac OS X System wide daemons.
