Deleting AdobeResourceSynchronizer Through Accounts
After reading a few forums I used the following method to delete AdobeResourceSynchronizer. Open System Preferences then Accounts then Login Items then select AdobeResourceSynchronizer. First, Uncheck it so that it will not reopen (from Trash) upon Restarting. Then hold down control/click or right/click and a "reveal in finder" option appears. Click on it and the app appears, without having to go through more complicated ways of finding it. Again control/click or right/click and send it to the Trash. "Restart" your system, go to Trash and Empty it. I went back into Accounts Login Items and AdobeResourceSynchronizer was still in the list. "Unknown" appeared in the "Kind" column to the right. As a final Goodbye to AdobeResourceSynchronizer (at least for now) I clicked on it and hit the "-" button at the bottom of the list to remove the word "AdobeResourceSynchronizer" from the List of Login Items. I will probably have to do this again if I am prompted to update Reader or Flash or some other Adobe Bloatware item. Why can't Adobe fix this? Are they unaware of it? (I doubt it.) I have read elsewhere that this program is supposed to keep track of updates to documents (not sure what kind(s) of documents but probably .pfd) if more than one user on a network is changing a particular document to ensure that changes are not inadvertently Not Saved. Sounds like it could be useful (not to me) in certain circumstances ... but why would such a simple objective require 80% of your CPU?? Obviously it doesn't, so some sort of unexpected (to Adobe) loop or weird processing takes place. If it IS a useful function, surely they can FIX IT.
