How do I stop a particular service from running?
You can stop with this command:
$ launchctl unload com.wondershare.mobilegodaemon
Additionally if you want to completely delete it, you have to search for it on /Library/LaunchDaemons/
, /Library/LaunchAgents/
and ~/Library/LaunchAgents/
to delete the configuration file, that should be called com.wondershare.mobilegodaemon
.
For what it's worth, in February of this year a moderator on Mobilego's forum offered a software download to someone who posted about difficulties ridding a Mac of this digital zebra mussel.
It was only a little unsettling to see the typo she made:
Hi, here is a tool for you to uninstall it completely. You just need >>to run it on your mac and then MobileGo can be installed.
Link to the thread where the download is: Uninstall on MacOS
Direct link: MobileGoRemover.app.zip
Look for, and delete, the file the with name com.wondershare.mobilegodaemon.plist
in one of the following folders:
- ~/Library/LaunchDaemons
- ~/Library/LaunchAgents
- /Library/LaunchDaemons
- /Library/LaunchAgents
After restarting your Mac, the service will no longer be run.
You can also use the command sudo launchctl unload com.wondershare.mobilegodaemon
in Terminal.app to stop the launchd job.
