Cannot Install Missing Sync! How do I uninstall SyncMate?

Download AppCleaner and search for SyncMate. That should remove it for you.

 

I have got the same problem

please excuse my bad english; since today I have the same problem and I cannot search about syncmate at appcleaner! The syncmate isn't registered in my system, so I cannot delete at appcleaner! What can wo do also?

Thanks

 

I have it

You have to delete:

"/System/Library/Extensions/EltimaAsync.kext"
"/Library/Application Support/EltimaSyncMate/SyncMateStarter.app"
"/Library/Application Support/EltimaSyncMate/BackService.app"


At my mac it works.

 

Sounds like Mother Nature...

...is telling you to go back to SyncMate. It works really well for me - HTC touch with SpottyCat 10.5.5.

Of course, we should both just buy proper phones...

The installation DMG has an Uninstaller that knows how to use the driver, for those who are determined.

Look here ... and is it worth the switch?

Stumbled over this on:

https://support.markspace.com/index.php?_m=knowledgebase&_a=viewarticle&kbarticleid=267

But is it worth it:

I could not find any reasonable comparisons between the latest iterations of these apps.

 

more problems

when i put all those in the trash and try to empty it a message comes up saying "the operation can't be completed because the item "rapiback" is in use." what is rapiback and how is it in use? I restarted my computer before doing all of this so no apps were running. i need help.

 

Further help

When I try to send syncmate to the trash I get a message that it is open. How do I close it?

 

hopefully solved it

I had the same problem with this pesky application that kept reminding me to sync with annoying popups. I just deleted those files mentioned above:
"/System/Library/Extensions/EltimaAsync.kext"
"/Library/Application Support/EltimaSyncMate/SyncMateStarter.app"
"/Library/Application Support/EltimaSyncMate/BackService.app"

If you cannot delete them from the trash because they are in use, you can pull up the activity monitor (under utilities) and manually quit the following jobs: rapiback and two others I forget the name of but had sync in the title so it's obvious (they should be tasks under your username, not "root" which sounds dangerous and I wouldn't mess with any of that).

 

I'm having same problem - can't uninstall all SyncMate components

Using activity monitor allowed me to delete SyncMateStarter (thank you) but I can't find rapiback there.

 

Its not working

I tried everything I read on here and still when I try and run missing sync it tells me I have syncmate on my mac. I've deleted everything... any ideas?

 

How do I uninstall SyncMate?

I'm having the same problem on my macbook Leopard 13 inch. I tryed to look for the files in my system, did not find them. Have done all kinds of things and still get that message. Missing Sync rocks, it works just fine for me but the mentioned message is making me crazy!!

 

Use the SyncMate Uninstaller

I had the same issue. After removing the application, I still received daily pop up reminders that I needed to sync. After some research, here is another possible solution that I stumbled upon:

How to uninstall SyncMate

To uninstall SyncMate software from your Mac:

1. Find syncmate.dmg file on your Mac. There will be 2 packages: installer.pkg and uninstaller.pkg
2. Double click on uninstaller.pkg (make sure that the folder /Library/Application Support/EltimaSyncMate/ and also the file /System/Library/Extensions/EltimaAsync.kext are not present in your system)
3. Restart your Mac

To uninstall SyncMate software from your mobile phone:

1. Go to Remove programs application
2. Choose SyncMate driver and press Remove
3. Reboot your mobile device

If you already moved SyncMate to trash we recommend you to download SyncMate again from here - http://mac.eltima.com/download/syncmate.dmg and then uninstall it properly

 

This worked perfectly. Thank you for this post.

 

Thanks for the easy syncmate fix!

I appreciate this fix for Syncmate's annoying reminders!

 

The most effective method for complete app removal is manual deletion:

Thanks to this info my Mac is back up. It appears that after upgrading to El Capitan that SyncMate decided to cause kernel panic preventing me from booting. BTW I removed this software over a month ago.

 

How did you resolve this? I can't get a clean boot; single user isn't even getting me to a prompt. Just hangs shortly after the kernel panic on com.eltima.SyncMate.kext.

 

Power off, then power on and hold Command + R until the process bar starts loading this will take you to the recovery menu, from there select terminal.
