zipcloud

I thought that ZipCloud was backing up towards the top of my MacBook Pro. Then I upgraded to El Capitan. Notes went off and I can't figure how to get them from ZipCloud. I can't even say IF it is backed up, and even less can be restored. Apple told me that entire applications disappear is not without their knowledge when users upgrade to El Capitan. , I feel like I want to cry. I have all kinds of information stored in the Notes. Glass fusing hourly, customer info, rebuild my cache of recipe, etc. Several years ago. And now... Now, I don't have any Notes. I can't understand IF my ZipCloud my saved data. I wanted to find ZipCloud (the company) to write, but I kept finding other Mac users and thought I would post it here and see if I can collect any help. I went out and bought an external drive will be downloading my files on ZipCloud and hope not to lose this external hard drive. (I lost my last... a 2 TB, where fell on a table.) ) With the disappearance of this disc, I thought I should use the cloud, but I am disappointed now when I can't find the files I thought that should be stored on ZipCloud. But I have not tried backup source it before and maybe miss me a major piece of info. Any help will give you my appreciation and good prayers for you. Thank you.

  • What is advanced Mac cleaner and Zipcloud?

    I have a MB Pro mid 2012. Recently, I received a notification that an update was available and he came an offer to install a couple of free program called Advanced Mac cleaner and Zipcloud that would protect and 'clean up' my Mac. Since these came with the update, I assumed they were a legitimate Apple auxiliary and safe to install. But when I ran Adware Medic (Malwarebytes Anti-Malware) identified these programs as malware.  Can someone please comment?  I have not yet tried to erase those two requests.

    They are two bins: If you have installed them you must get rid of them as soon as possible and do not use them. At best they they will do very little, but they can cause problems and can also be difficult to remove. They would never be included in an official Apple update - have you used another source? Updates Apple software or systems should come only from software update in the Apple Menu or the Mac App Store in Applications.

    Also uninstall the antivirus software. There are no viruses that can attack Mac.OS X. For example, anti-virus programs are selling a cure for a disease that does not exist. And they are known for the Mac was systems. Look for an uninstall program or visit their website for the instructions to uninstall.

  • Utility error Pop Up evey

    Hello

    I have a MacBook Pro (15 inch, early 2011) which is running on Yosemite OSX version 10.10.1 (B 14, 25).

    I get the error message popup utility ordinary. This has happened for a while now and I can't seem to find the root of this problem.

    Could someone help me with this?

    Thank you very much.

    "ZipCloud," sometimes called "JustCloud", is a service of storage cloud with a dubious reputation. " The OS X client is sometimes distributed as well as malicious software. Although ZipCloud is not malicious itself, it should be suspected because of the company he keeps.

    To remove ZipCloud, please start back up all the data (not with the ZipCloud himself, of course).

    Quit the application "ZipCloud" or "JustCloud", if it is running and then drag in the Applications folder to the trash. Do not try to empty again.

    Triple-click anywhere in the line below on this page to select this option:

    ~/Library/LaunchAgents

    Right-click or Ctrl-click on the highlighted line and select

    Services ▹ Open

    the contextual menu.* should open a folder named "LaunchAgents.

    In the folder, there may be one or several files whose name begins as follows:

    com.jdibackup.

    Place all these files to the trash.

    Log off or restart the computer, and empty the trash.

    * If you do not see the item context menu copy the selected text in the Clipboard by pressing Control-C key combination. In the Finder, select

    Go ▹ go to the folder...

    from the menu bar and paste it into the box that opens by pressing command + V. You won't see what you pasted a newline being included. Press return.

  • iMac continues to be frozen as claimed by other users

    I saw that many users have the same problem with my friends, the computer crashes randomly and the only thing that works is the arrow on the pointer on the screen, but I'm not able to do nothing to restart the system. In the past, it was a victim, for a few weeks, that often, at least two or three times a day.

    Here is the report of being in the hope that someone could help... In the meantime, I'll remove the adware found and to check some files. I delete some startup items that seem to be obsolete for this OS.

    Maridef,

    Your report indicates some adware is installed, run the report EtreCheck again and click where it says to remove the adware.

    Then, my guess is you can have moved away from using a PC at one time and brought over some habits of PC. I noticed that you have installed com.trendmicro.DrCleaner, it is unnecessary and potentially harmful for OS X. OS X is not no matter what antivirus cleaning, or third-party utilities to good work. If left alone and updated OS X is extremely secure and will work well for years.

    Finally, I noticed that you have installed a WD software you no doubt to some WD JEP. It is not only pointless too, it tends to cause problems. So uninstall that too.

  • How to remove unwanted software

    I have an iMac 2012 end El Capitan running.  My husband tried to install an update for Java or something like that.  Instead, he ended up a version outdated as well as 3 + files that is screwing up the computer.  The first is 'Advanced Mac Cleaner', although I removed everything that I could find this name, it will return on his own in the "library" folder  I erase it, I go through all the folders that have been recommended and remove all associated to this, but it always reappears in the library folder.

    One was a sort of cloud of zip and the 3rd, I don't remember.  I had success in removing these 2 (I think).  Today, during a sort by mail, I got up a little pop window saying he advised me to install something.  I accidentally left it before writing what he says.  A little later, I had another window asking if I wanted more space on my computer.  I left Safari hoping that part of the question, but it wasn't. the winnow was always there and I show that no other application only open at the bottom of the screen.  So that this window go, I first need to click on it and press command + Q

    How can I get rid of the "advanced cleaner Mac' for good?  How can I get rid of this annoying pop-up window?  How can I make sure that my system is free of junk?  And Yes, don't let her husband not using the computer again.

    'Advanced Mac Cleaner' and 'Zipcloud' are often found together. They result from a 'cloud storage' service questionable who may have been offered as part of a fraudulent 'upgrade video player' or perhaps a Java updater all as fraudulent as you have described. Read Watch out for fake Adobe Flash 'installers' for some examples. The solution to your concern follows. Beware that this kind of threats are constantly changing, so if you are still experiencing problems please write for more specific instructions.

    You have inadvertently installed adware. You don't need to download or install anything to fix.

    Please see the Apple Support document: stop advertising windows pop-up and adware in Safari - Apple Support. 'Advanced Mac cleaner' will require by following the instructions in the document with the following changes or additions:

    • Under the section possibly delete other adware files, add the following to the list of files to remove:

    ~/Library/LaunchAgents/com.pcv.hlpramc.plist

    • In addition to the above file, you can find one containing the name 'jdibackup' or 'zipcloud '. If you find these names files delete them also.
    • Restart your Mac. Do not omit this step.
    • Then: repeat the instructions with the following two files:

    ~/Library/AdvancedMacCleaner

    /Library/Application Support/amc

    Note the difference in path names. One is preceded by the ~ (tilde), the other is not. As long as you use the method go to the folder , you will find files that need deleting.

    • Then:  (Apple menu) open System Preferences > users and groups > login items. If there is an entry in the list named 'Advanced Mac Cleaner' he remove the login items list by using the [-] (button below less).
    • Then: Open the Applications folder by using the menu go to the Finder > Applications. If there is a folder inside called "Advanced Mac Cleaner", drag it to the trash.
    • Finally: to empty the trash and restart your Mac.

    For a description of how this can happen, how to avoid it in the future, and to the actions recommended Apple read How to install adware.

  • Need suggestions based on EtreCheck

    We had a lot of problems with our iMac freezing temporarily or lock until manually turn off the computer - it will not even Force Quit. There are moments that we get beach balls, and other times, there is no cursor, no scrolling, no nothin' '.  This often happens when we are on the internet and sometimes when we use programs such as Office for Mac.

    I know just enough about iMacs to be really dangerous, so I was wondering if someone better qualified could take a look at this report and make suggestions?

    Thanks in advance for your help.

    I've got Yosemite 10.10.5. Safari doesn't load not any page. Itunestore and App Store connect to internet. Firefox opens not too certain pages.

    * can I go in safe mode?

    I started in safe mode.

    Everything works.

    but in normal mode, it didn't work again.

    In addition I checked, time, date, serial number, configuration, DNS, Proxy settings, keychains... everything is ok. I deleted the cookies, cache, history, nothing has worked!

    I have search in applications for mackeeper, found nothing.

    leave your post to another (https://discussions.apple.com/thread/5408109?tstart=0) I ran this command in a Terminal in safe mode:

    He is not surprised OS X turns bad. You have installed the malware CleanMyMac 3. Immediately uninstall and re - run the EtreCheck report to see if it disappeared completely. Also, your computer is lack of RAM. You machine can accommodate up to 6 GB of RAM, you have 3 GB which is located just above the bare to El Capitan. Increase the RAM using a reliable source critical (direct purchase) or OWC (www.macsales.com).

    OS X does not have any cleaning, anti-virus or third party maintenance utilities!

  • I think my Mac has a Trojan horse.  How to remove?

    Sometimes when I click on a link on Safari opens a new tab the same and the former tab becomes a sort of announcement (Mac clean, zipcloud, etc.).  Can I have downloaded Adobe Flash Player on a bad site.  My search engine site which is usually Google changes also to something else.

    I am running OSX 10.11.12

    How can I solve this problem?

    So you know in the future, never download anything from anywhere other than the App Store OR Web site.  Who will help protect you from downloading something that has been bundled with malware/adware.  You can download Adobe Flash Player here.

    For addressing what you do deal with now, I suggest you download Malwarebytes Anti-Malware for Mac.  It was developed by a trust post it here, and it's a safe option for you can use to get rid of what is infect your system.  Install it and let it run, following all the instructions it gives you.  Restart your computer, and you should be set to rights.  In the future, consider my previous opinion - download on the Web site or on the App Store.

  • Virus Malware Trojans and other junk

    Okay, so, it is true that I am not a Mac person, gasp, but here comes a true unbiased.

    I helped a member of the family rebuild a MacBook Pro using a USB stick to boot and install the latest version of El Capitan.  I was helping to restore the data literally 48 hours later and to my surprise, that the machine was infected with two pieces of malware (which was visible) 'Advanced Mac Cleaner' and 'ZipClould '.  It is interesting ZipCloud himself had placed in the dock bar, replacing a similar looking cloud storage service.

    So clearly the machine has been compromised, and it was easier to rebuild than to go on the road to 'cleaning up' at this stage.

    How can I avoid this happening again?  I can't look over the shoulder 24 x 7, but there should be a way to avoid this.

    Mac users often ask if they should install "anti-virus" (AV) or software "anti-malware". The answer is 'no', but it can give the false impression that there is no threat of what is loosely called 'virus '. There is a threat.

    1. it is a comment on what you should - and should not-do to protect you from malicious software ("malware") that runs on the Internet and gets onto a computer as an unintended consequence of the user's actions.

    It does not apply to the software, such as keyloggers, which can be installed deliberately by an intruder who has convenient access to the computer, or who has been able to take control of it remotely. This threat is in a different category, and there is no easy way to defend against it. AV software is not intended to and does not, to defend against these attacks.

    The comment is long because the issue is complex. The essential points are in articles 5 and 11.

    OS X implements now three levels of integrated protection specifically against malware, not to mention the protections of runtime such as quarantine the file, execute disable, sandbox, protecting the integrity of system, System Library randomization and randomized address space layout , which can also prevent other kinds of exploits.

    2. all versions of Mac OS X 10.6.7 were able to detect the malware Mac known in downloaded files and block non-secure web plugins. This feature is transparent to the user. Apple calls internally it "XProtect."

    The malware used by XProtect recognition database is automatically updated. However, you should not count on it, because the attackers are still at least a day before the defenders.

    The following restrictions apply to XProtect:

    ☞ circumvented by some third-party network software, such as the BitTorrent clients and Java applets.

    ☞ It applies only to software downloaded on the network. Software installed from a CD or other media is not verified.

    As new versions of Mac OS X are available, it is not clear whether Apple will continue indefinitely maintain the older versions such as 10.6 XProtect database. Versions of obsolete systems security may eventually be affected. Updates to security for the code of obsolete systems will be stop being released at any given time, and which can leave them open to other types of attack in addition to malware.

    3. starting with the OS X 10.7.5, there was a second layer of built-in malware protection, designated "Gatekeeper" by Apple. By default, applications and installation packages downloaded from the network will be run only if they are digitally signed by a developer to a certificate issued by Apple. Certified software in this way has not been checked for safety by Apple, unless it comes to the App Store, but you can be reasonably sure that it has not been changed by someone other than the developer. His identity is known to Apple, so it could be held legally responsible if it distributes malicious software. Which may not mean much if the developer lives in a country with a weak legal system (see below).

    Access controller does not depend on a database of known malware. He has, however, the same limitations as XProtect and in addition the following:

    ☞ It can easily be turned off or overridden by the user.

    ☞ A malware attacker could find a way around it, or could take control of a certificate of signing of code under false pretenses or could simply ignore the consequences of the distribution of malware Tryggvason.

    ☞ Developer App store could find a way around the Apple control, or the control may fail due to human error.

    Apple took too long to revoke some known attackers codesigning certificates, thus diluting the value of the keeper and the program developer ID. These variances do not involve the App Store products, however.

    For the reasons given, App Store, and, to a lesser extent - other applications recognized by signed Gatekeeper, are safer than others, but they cannot be considered to be absolutely sure. "Sand" applications could make to access to private data, such as your contacts, or for access to the network. Think that before granting access. Security sandbox is based on user input. Never click through any application for leave without thinking.

    4. by starting with OS X 10.8.3, a third layer of protection has been added: a "Malware Removal Tool" (MRT). MRT runs automatically in the background. He checks and removes, malware that corresponds to a database of recognition held by Apple. To ensure that MRT will be executed when the database is updated, the App Store tab in system preferences and check the box marked

    Install the system data files and security updates

    If it is not already done.

    As XProtect, MRT is effective against known threats, but not against strangers. It alerts you if it detects malware, but otherwise, it has no user interface.

    5. the built-in Mac OS x security features reduce the risk of malware attack, but they are not and will never be complete protection. Malware is a problem of human behavior, not a behavior machine, and none only of technological solution will solve. Software protect you from trust only will make you more vulnerable.

    The best defense is always going to be your own intelligence. Except perhaps feats of Java, all the known malware, circulating on the Internet wearing reached a completely setting installation to update to OS X 10.6 or later takes the form of so-called "Trojans", which may have no effect if the victim is deceived in their execution. The threat thus amounts to a battle of wits between you and cybercriminals. If you are better informed, they think you are, you win. In effect, it means that you always stay in the shelter of practical computing. How do you know when you leave the safe harbor? Here are a few signs warning of danger.

    Software from a reliable source

    ☞ Software with a brand, such as Adobe Flash Player, does not come directly from the Web site. Don't be fooled an alert of any website for updating Flash, or your browser, or other software. A real alert that Flash is outdated and blocked is shown on this support page. In this case, follow the instructions on the support page. Furthermore, assume that the alert is false and that someone is trying to rip you off to install malicious software. If you see these alerts on more than one Web site, ask for instructions.

    ☞ Software any is distributed via BitTorrent or Usenet, or on a Web site that distributes pirated music and movies.

    ☞ Rogue sites Web such as CNET Download MacUpdate, Soft32, Softonic and SourceForge distribute free applications that have been packaged in a superfluous "install".

    ☞ The software is advertised through spam or intrusive web ads. Any announcement, on any site, which includes a direct link to a download should be ignored.

    Software that is clearly illegal or doing something illegal

    Commercial software ☞ high-end such as Photoshop is "cracked" or "free."

    ☞ An application helps you violates copyright law, for example to circumvent the copy protection on a commercial software, or streamed media recording to be reused without permission. All the 'YouTube downloaders' are in this category, but not all are necessarily malicious.

    Conditional or unsolicited offer from strangers

    ☞ A phone calling or a web page you indicates that you have a "virus" and offers to remove. (Some reputable sites warned visitors who have been infected with the malware "DNSChanger" legitimately. The exception to this rule applies.)

    ☞ A web site offers a free content like music or video, but for use, you must install a "codec", 'plug-in', 'player' 'Downloader', 'extractor', or 'certificate' which comes from the same site, or a stranger.

    ☞ You win a prize in a competition that you are never entered.

    ☞ someone on a forum like this is eager to help you, but only if you download an application of your choice.

    ☞ a 'FREE WI - FI!' network presents itself in a public place like an airport, but is not provided by management.

    ☞ Online everything that you expect to pay is 'free '.

    Unexpected events

    ☞ a file is downloaded automatically when you visit a web page, without any further action on your part. delete any file without opening it.

    ☞ You open what you think, it is a document and you receive an alert that it is "an application downloaded from the Internet." Click Cancel and delete the file. Even if you don't get the alert, you still need to delete any file that is not what you expected it to be.

    ☞ An application does something you don't expect, such as permission to access your contacts, your location or the Internet without obvious reason.

    ☞ Software is attached to the email you na not ask, even if it is (or seems to come) by a person of trust.

    I do not leave the safe harbour that once will necessarily lead to disasters, but make a habit of it will weaken your defenses against malicious software attacks. None of the above scenarios must, at the very least, make you uncomfortable.

    6. Java on the Web (not to be confused with JavaScript, to which it is not related, despite the similarity of names) is a weak point in the security of any system. Java is, among other things, a platform to run complex applications in a web page. That was always a bad idea, and Java developers have proved unable to apply it without also creating a portal for malware to enter. Past Java exploits are the closest thing there has ever been a type virus Windows affecting OS X. simply load a page with Java malicious content could be harmful.

    Fortunately, client-side Java on the Web is outdated and largely disappeared. Only a few outdated sites still use it. Try to accelerate the process of extinction by avoiding these sites, if you have a choice. Forget to play games or other uses not Java essentials.

    Java is not included in OS X 10.7 and later versions. Discrete Java installers are distributed by Apple and Oracle (the developer of Java). Do not use one unless you need it. Most of the people don't. If Java is installed, turn it off- not the JavaScript in your browser.

    Whatever the version, experience has shown that Java on the Web is not reliable. If you must use a Java applet for a job on a specific site, Enable Java only for the site in Safari. Never activate Java for a public Web site that carries the third-party advertising. Use only on websites that are well known, protected by login and secure without ads. In Safari 6 or later, you will see a padlock icon in the address bar when you visit a secure site.

    7. another perennial weak point is Adobe Flash Player. Like Java, Flash is declining well deserved, but content Flash is still much more widespread than the contents of Java on the Web. If you choose to install the Flash plugin, you can reduce your exposure to Flash by checking the box marked

    Stop the plug-ins to save energy

    in the Advanced tab of the preferences of Safari window, if not already done. Consider also installing an extension Safari as "ClickToFlash" or "ClickToPlugin." They will prevent the Flash content automatically load and are initially not Flash video is substituted for Flash on YouTube and perhaps a few other sites. I tested the extensions and found them safe, but you should always do your own research before you decide whether to trust any third party software.

    8. remain within the sphere of security, and you will be as safe from malware you can be practically. The rest of this comment is what you must do to protect you.

    Never install any AV or products 'Internet security' for Mac if you have a choice, because they are all worse than useless. If you are required by a (wrong) institutional policy to install some kind of AV, choose one of the free apps in the Mac App Store, nothing else.

    Why you should not use products AV?

    ☞ To recognize malware, software depends on a database of known threats, which is always at least one day to day. This technique is a proven failure, as a major supplier of AV software has admitted. Most of the attacks are "zero-day" - that is, previously unknown. Recognition-based AV does not defend against such attacks, and the enterprise IT industry comes to realize that the traditional AV software is worthless.

    ☞ design is based generally on the nonexistent threat that malware can be injected at any time, anywhere in the file system. Malware is downloaded from the network; He is not of the blue leaves. To meet this threat does not exist, a commercial AV software changes or low level functions of the operating system, which is a waste of resources and a frequent cause of instability, bugs, poor performance, and duplicates.

    ☞ changing the operating system, the software can also create weaknessesthat could be exploited by malicious attackers.

    ☞ especially, a false sense of security is dangerous. This fact relates to all AV software it will never be any changes elsewhere.

    9. a free AV product from the Mac App Store is safe as long as you don't let it delete or move files. Ignore all the warnings that it can give you on "heuristic" or "phishing." These warnings, if they are not simply false positives, see the text of e-mail messages or updates cached web pages, not malware.

    An AV application is not necessary and may not be invoked for protection against malware for OS X. It is useful, or even not at all, only to detect malware Windows and even for this use it is not really effective, because the new Windows malware makes its appearance much faster than OS X malware.

    Windows malware cannot hurt you directly (unless, of course, you use Windows). Just do not pass to someone else. A malicious link in the e-mail is usually easy to recognize by the name alone. A concrete example:

         London Terror Moovie.avi [124 spaces] Checked By Norton Antivirus.exe

    You don't need software to tell you it's a horse Trojan for Windows. Software may be able to tell what trojan is, but who cares? In practice, there is no reason to use a recognition software, unless an organizational strategy requires. Malware Windows is so widespread that you must assume that it is in each attachment until proof to the contrary. Nevertheless, a free AV product on the App Store can serve a purpose if it fulfills a misinformed network administrator that says you must have some sort of application AV. An App Store product will not change the operating system; in fact, it does nothing, unless you run it.

    If you are just curious to know if a file is considered malware by the AV engines, you can download it from the "VirusTotal" site, where it will be tested against most of them without charge. A negative result is evidence of what whether, for the reasons given above. I do not recommend doing this with a file that may contain private information.

    10. There seems to be a common belief that the firewall Application acts as a barrier to infection, or prevents operation of malware. He does not. It blocks incoming connections to some network services you are using, such as file sharing. It is disabled by default, and you should leave it like that if you're behind a router on a private home or office network. Activate only when you are on an untrusted network, for example a public Wi - Fi hotspot, where you do not want to provide services. Disable services that you don't use in the sharing preferences window. All are disabled by default.

    11. as a Mac user, you don't have to live in fear that your computer may be infected whenever you install the software, read emails, or visit a web page. But nor can you assume that you will always be free from exploitation, no matter what you do. Internet browsing, it's like walking the streets of a big city. It can be as safe or as dangerous that you choose to do so. The greatest harm done by software AV is precisely its selling point: it makes people feel safe. They can then feel sufficiently safe to take risks, which the software does not protect them. Nothing can reduce the need for safe computing practices.

  • Safari freezes several times after upgrade of El Capitan

    Hello world

    I've upgraded to El Capitan this afternoon on my MacBook Pro (late 2011 version) and since then have been essentially unable to use Safari as it freezes several times, forcing me to force to leave every time. I noticed that others on the Board had listed their etrecheck results, so mine are below.

    It has been quite frustrating - Safari was my go - to browser and seems today almost no functional for me. (Firefox works fine, no problem, then what is it with Safari?)

    Thanks in advance for any suggestions you may have.

    See all the 'Reds' that says 'Adware '.  That's your problem.

    Specifically, Genieo.  This piece of software can put the most powerful Mac to its knees.  And they are very difficult to get people to install, you can put huge inviting green banners that just say "Download", and if you are on a page where you expect to download something, you can click on the thought of Ad you download anything you want.  My wife, a very experienced programmer was taken by Genieo and he did his very powerful Mac crawl.

    MalwareBytes Anti-Malware (formally AdwareMedic)

    https://www.Malwarebytes.org/>

    And then a new analysis with EtreCheck and if you still "Adware" withdrawal indicated that.
