Long-term Mozy for Mac review Mozy for Mac was the first low-cost online backup service for Macs. But after using it for over 2 years at my own expense I dumped it.
Mozy stores files in a few locations. Removing all of the files at the locations listed below and restarting your computer will constitute an uninstall. /Applications/Mozy.app ( only on 1.x versions of Mozy). /Library/PreferencePanes/Mozy.prefPane ( only on 2.x versions of Mozy). /Library/Application Support/Mozy/. /Library/LaunchAgents/com.Mozy.status.plist.
/Library/LaunchDaemons/com.Mozy.backup.plist. /Library/Caches/Mozy/. /Users/username/Library/Preferences/com.Mozy.config.plist. /Users/username/Library/Preferences/com.Mozy.status.plist The Mozy menubar icon is an application that is stored in the main Mozy.app bundle. Removing Mozy.app or Mozy.prefPane should prevent the icon from appearing in the menubar.
If removing those two files and rebooting doesn’t fix it please try the following:. Open up Activity Monitor (/Applications/Utilities/Activity Monitor.app).
How To Use The Mozy For Mac
