. How to Remove Macdrops 1.1 in Mac OS X This article is teaching you how to correctly remove Macdrops 1.1 in Mac OS X. Before performing the removal, let’s get to know more about Mac OS X, so that we will be able to safely, completely remove Macdrops 1.1. Over the years, Mac OS has never given up on the desktop market. Evolved from Mac OS 9 to X, it went through eleven significant upgrades - Cheetah, Puma, Jaguar, Panther, Tiger, Leopard, Snow Leopard, Lion, Mountain Lion, Mavericks, and Yosemite, becoming more and more adaptive and user-friendly. The El Capitandu version in particular, fixed many bugs while a lot of new features have been added, and system security has been greatly enhanced as well.
From these improvements, more and more developers find business opportunities and engage in designing apps for Mac. However, due to the distinctiveness of Mac OS X, its uninstallation can be quite distinctive to former Windows users, who might need a bit more operating system knowledge instead of simply dropping an app down the Trash. So, how should we correctly, completely remove Macdrops 1.1? Generally, Manual Removal Requires the Following Steps: Step 1: open the Activity Monitor, and search for the processes related to Macdrops 1.1, then quit them one by one.
Step 2: Check whether Macdrops 1.1 has its own built-in uninstaller. If it does, we use it.
How to find its uninstaller?. 2.1 Go to Find - Go - Application. 2.2 Locate Macdrops 1.1, right-click on it then select Show Package Contents. 2.3 See if there is any file with “uninstall” or “remove” in its name, which should be the built-in uninstaller of an application. And we run it to activate the removal.
Step 3: If Macdrops 1.1 doesn’t have its own uninstaller or you can’t find it, the operations can be a bit complicated. 3.1 In the upper-right corner of your screen, click the Magnifier icon to open Spotlight Search. Type “Macdrops 1.1 ” in the box, and you will see the related folder(s)/file(s). According to the result, respectively drag it (them) to the Trash. 3.2 To fully remove Macdrops 1.1, we need to check the following folders for its remaining files, whose name should contain “Macdrops 1.1.”. 3.2.1 Application Support. 3.2.2 Caches.
3.2.3 Containers. 3.2.4 Frameworks. 3.2.5 Logs. 3.2.6 Preferences. 3.2.7 Saved Application State. 3.2.8 WebKit.
3.3 Some files of Macdrops 1.1 could be set as “Read only”, so to find those files we shall change the settings to “Everyone Read & Write.” Performing the above steps should perfectly remove Macdrops 1.1. Although the manual uninstallation is able to remove the apps you don’t want, it may take much time, and not everyone is tech-savvy enough to do that without involving in possible risks, for example, the mistaken deletion that leads to system crash. To spare yourself the unsafe elements, you might as well try out a professional third-part tool, like MacRemover - a small-sized but powerful Mac App uninstaller that supports the One Click Remove feature. How to Remove Macdrops 1.1 with MacRemover?. 1 Download MacRemover.
2 Run it, select Macdrops 1.1 in the list of installed applications, then click the “Run Analysis” button. 3 MacRemover will analyze the installation information of Macdrops 1.1. 4 After the analysis, click “Complete Uninstall” to perfectly remove Macdrops 1.1. Manual Removal & Auto Removal - How to Choose?.
1 If you are a sophisticated user of Mac OS X and know well of its operating theory, then you can consider manual removal. 2 If you are a newbie to Mac OS X, then a third-party removal tool is suggested. Because these tools can automatically analyze & recognize the files which need to be deleted, and save a lot of time that you can spend working on your Mac.
I have this same problem, every five to ten minutes. The Mac loses its INTERNET connection, but not its NETWORK connection. The network preference pane tells me that the network connection is OK, but I may or may not have an IP address. Clicking 'Renew DHCP Lease' will give me an address, but it will disappear in a few moments. I have determined that it's not a WiFi/Airport problem, since it occurs when the Mac is hardwired to ethernet as well as when it is using Airport. Since it occurs on three different Macs in different locations, I can rule out a hardware problem as well as a wiring problem from the router to the Mac. I have also replaced the router twice, for a total of three routers from two different manufacturers, so it's not a router hardware or firmware problem.
I can also rule out a DNS problem, since when the connection is lost the Mac(s) won't even display the router configuration page, for which I enter a numeric URL and does not require DNS access. Washington redskins. I have not observed the problem with my iPhone. I believe that leaves either a router or mac network configuration problem or an OS X software bug.
My next experiment is to see if configuring the network manually instead of DHCP fixes it, though that's hardly a satisfactory long-term solution for me, and certainly doesn't tell me what the problem is. Is there a networking expert out there who can suggest possible configuration issues? I also experience the same issues, with the computer 'looking for networks' every 5 seconds. There are times when I have no problems, but they are not often. We have an airport base station in the basement, and the iMac is on the second floor, with an airport express nearby.
Usually our iPad, iPhones and Mac laptop have no problem connecting even when the iMac does. However, there are times when all are affected and at that point we cycle the router on and off. That action fixes everything, but then the iMac does the same 'looking for networks' all over again. I am trying to decide if it is worth bringing the iMac to the genius bar and having them take a look at the computer. How does one narrow down where the issue is? I can't believe I've been putting up with this for months, when the solution was pretty easy in the end. We had three wireless phones in the house until last week when I removed all of them and replaced them with cheap corded phones.
I also moved our router to the main level from the lower level. This has actually solved the problem. The Mac hasn't dropped the internet at all. The Apple TV finally works as it should, Netflix works great, etc. I don't know if this will help anyone, but wanted to share in case.
It's a relief. More info on this problem. I switched all the macs on my network over from DHCP to Manual addressing and also also assigned the DNS servers manually (OpenDNS).
The router still stops working after a period of use ranging from 5 minutes to a day and needs to be reset, even with wired connections. When it stops, even non-OS X devices on the network, including a printer, iPhone, and MagicJack stop functioning, but not all at the same time.
Having tried three different routers all with the same problem I'm now convinced this must have something to do with the router settings. I've no clue as to how to get a home network to work reliably. Minngal, I have seen similar behavior before on wireless networks and what I discovered was the culprit was that the Airport Express is not getting a strong enough signal from the main Airport station to repeat. In my experience, laptops have a more robust antenna than the Airport. And therefore the laptop may be picking up signal from the main, whereas the 2nd floor iMac may not and is dependent on the Express. When you lose signal try launching the Airport Utility and see which wireless station the iMac is seeing and whether or not the Express is picking up a signal from the main.
Also look at the base station if it has a solid green light or not (although, that isn't always reliable for me) Try moving the Express a little closer to the main station and still be visible to the iMac or add another relay. I don't think the genius will be much help! Apple Footer. This site contains user submitted content, comments and opinions and is for informational purposes only.

Community member Julius Chan has sent us this handy guide to getting a 2006 Mac Pro to run the lastest Mac OS X Yosemite.
Here is his helpful guide.
First of all, all of the below are regarded as hacks. If you end up with bricked Mac Pro, then it’s your own silly fault. None of this stuff is qualified. You’re building what I refer to as a “Frankenmac”.
Part of my day job is building Pro Tools rigs for high-end customers. They can afford the best, so I get to tinker with the latest Avid qualified hardware and software available: “iAshtray” Mac Pros, tank-like rack mounted Sonnet chassis, HDX or HD Native cards etc. All fully qualified, just the way I like it.
This is all jolly nice for my clients, but my own personal 2006 Mac Pro 1,1 with a Cinema display (purchased from a friend for a pittance) sits there languishing quite a few operating systems behind on OSX Lion 10.7.5 running Pro Tools 10.3.10 HD. Bugger…
I’d read that some very clever folk had managed to persuade an old Mac Pro to run Mountain Lion and then Mavericks, and searching the Interwebs, I did indeed find a number of solutions that seemed to require entering a lot of commands in Terminal, creating boot partitions and generally patting your head and chewing gum at the same time. So I decided to wait a wee while until I found a more elegant solution. The wait seems to have been worth it, as I now have my poor old machine running on OSX Yosemite 10.10.2 and Pro Tools 11.3.1
The main restriction for a 2006/7 Mac Pro is that it was designed to boot into a 32-bit environment, even though a lot of the internal hardware was 64-bit capable. The clever bunnies out there in the Wild World Webby, have managed to fool a Ye Olde Mac Pro to run in 64 bit EFI.
Things that you will need:
All of the above cost me around $200 US, I had a spare 1TB 7200 rpm SATA drive, USB drives are cheap and seem to breed like rabbits. They also seem to disappear down the black hole that guitar picks, iLok 2 lids and single socks end up.
I’m going to assume that you’re booting from your old Lion system drive, so go ahead and download all the bits and bobs from the links above. Depending on your internet speed, this may take some time, so make a nice pot of tea. If you’re in Australia, as I am, you have plenty of time to make a nice batch of scones with jam and cream, thanks to our advanced network infrastructure.
Once you’ve finished downloading, place the files somewhere safe, it could be on a USB drive etc
I popped the files on one of my media drives temporarily so I could access them from my old system drive or my new system drive. (yet to be created, mwahhahaha)
Open up your Mac Pro, take the nasty GT120 graphics card out and pop in the ATI Radeon 5770. This card takes its power from the motherboard, so make sure you’ve got the correct power cable.
https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=NUh0uvUHn68
Install your new system drive, but leave the Lion drive in for the moment. I usually put new, unformatted drives in bay 4… Just so I know…
Reboot your rig into OSX Lion and make sure the new graphics card is AOK. You could format your new system drive at this stage as well. Call it something like “Yosemite HD” or “Kevin” if you wish.
Double and triple check that you’re formatting the correct drive… (Doh) Bay 4, remember??
Open up Lion Diskmaker X and follow the instructions to create a bootable USB “special” Yosemite installer from the big Yosemite image you download before. This is the patched version of Yosemite.
Don’t install the Apple App store version as this does not have ze patch…
This can take some time, so be patient and do something useful for the planet, like knitting a vest for our wee penguins on Phillip Island.
You’re done. I then optimise OSX Yosemite for Pro Tools, turning off mission control, notifications, silly kitten desktop pictures etc.
This not a job for the faint-hearted, but it’s still pretty easy to do if you like to get your hands dirty.
I replaced the old processors (dual cores) with SLAED Xeon 5355’s. EBay again, cost $80 US each.
This mod doubles the amount of processor cores giving a significant speed bump.
Videos here:
Cme piano. I now have the choice to boot into OSX Lion 10.7.5 with PT10.3.10 HD OR boot into OSX Yosemite 10.10.2 with PT11.3.1. As an added bonus, my processor cores have gone from 4 to 8 at 3GHz.The new graphics card no longer struggles like the old GT120 did.
Both the software and hardware changes, including the processor upgrades were done comfortably in an afternoon. Download times were about 7 days with our advanced Australian Internet speeds.
The main reason why I wanted PT11.x running was for the video engine and faster than real-time bounce as I have recently completed a filum project that required a whole bunch of stems.
I used PT10HD for the editing and mixing, then bumped over to PT11.3.1 for stem creation.
Next thing to do for the ye olde Mac is to find some more RAM and change the Yosemite system drive to an SSD. It seems that I should be able to get quite a few more years of life from a machine that officially could not run a 64 bit OS or applications. For a machine from 2006, this is pretty cool and I’ve managed to spend under $400 US to achieve it.
Don’t forget to offer up some shekels for the shareware products.

1 If you are a sophisticated user of Mac OS X and know well of its operating theory, then you can consider manual removal. 2 If you are a newbie to Mac OS X, then a third-party removal tool is suggested. Because these tools can automatically analyze & recognize the files which need to be deleted, and save a lot of time that you can spend working on your Mac.
I have this same problem, every five to ten minutes. The Mac loses its INTERNET connection, but not its NETWORK connection. The network preference pane tells me that the network connection is OK, but I may or may not have an IP address. Clicking 'Renew DHCP Lease' will give me an address, but it will disappear in a few moments. I have determined that it's not a WiFi/Airport problem, since it occurs when the Mac is hardwired to ethernet as well as when it is using Airport. Since it occurs on three different Macs in different locations, I can rule out a hardware problem as well as a wiring problem from the router to the Mac. I have also replaced the router twice, for a total of three routers from two different manufacturers, so it's not a router hardware or firmware problem.
I can also rule out a DNS problem, since when the connection is lost the Mac(s) won't even display the router configuration page, for which I enter a numeric URL and does not require DNS access. Washington redskins. I have not observed the problem with my iPhone. I believe that leaves either a router or mac network configuration problem or an OS X software bug.
My next experiment is to see if configuring the network manually instead of DHCP fixes it, though that's hardly a satisfactory long-term solution for me, and certainly doesn't tell me what the problem is. Is there a networking expert out there who can suggest possible configuration issues? I also experience the same issues, with the computer 'looking for networks' every 5 seconds. There are times when I have no problems, but they are not often. We have an airport base station in the basement, and the iMac is on the second floor, with an airport express nearby.
Usually our iPad, iPhones and Mac laptop have no problem connecting even when the iMac does. However, there are times when all are affected and at that point we cycle the router on and off. That action fixes everything, but then the iMac does the same 'looking for networks' all over again. I am trying to decide if it is worth bringing the iMac to the genius bar and having them take a look at the computer. How does one narrow down where the issue is? I can't believe I've been putting up with this for months, when the solution was pretty easy in the end. We had three wireless phones in the house until last week when I removed all of them and replaced them with cheap corded phones.
I also moved our router to the main level from the lower level. This has actually solved the problem. The Mac hasn't dropped the internet at all. The Apple TV finally works as it should, Netflix works great, etc. I don't know if this will help anyone, but wanted to share in case.
It's a relief. More info on this problem. I switched all the macs on my network over from DHCP to Manual addressing and also also assigned the DNS servers manually (OpenDNS).
The router still stops working after a period of use ranging from 5 minutes to a day and needs to be reset, even with wired connections. When it stops, even non-OS X devices on the network, including a printer, iPhone, and MagicJack stop functioning, but not all at the same time.
Having tried three different routers all with the same problem I'm now convinced this must have something to do with the router settings. I've no clue as to how to get a home network to work reliably. Minngal, I have seen similar behavior before on wireless networks and what I discovered was the culprit was that the Airport Express is not getting a strong enough signal from the main Airport station to repeat. In my experience, laptops have a more robust antenna than the Airport. And therefore the laptop may be picking up signal from the main, whereas the 2nd floor iMac may not and is dependent on the Express. When you lose signal try launching the Airport Utility and see which wireless station the iMac is seeing and whether or not the Express is picking up a signal from the main.
Also look at the base station if it has a solid green light or not (although, that isn't always reliable for me) Try moving the Express a little closer to the main station and still be visible to the iMac or add another relay. I don't think the genius will be much help! Apple Footer. This site contains user submitted content, comments and opinions and is for informational purposes only.

Community member Julius Chan has sent us this handy guide to getting a 2006 Mac Pro to run the lastest Mac OS X Yosemite.
Here is his helpful guide.
First of all, all of the below are regarded as hacks. If you end up with bricked Mac Pro, then it’s your own silly fault. None of this stuff is qualified. You’re building what I refer to as a “Frankenmac”.
Part of my day job is building Pro Tools rigs for high-end customers. They can afford the best, so I get to tinker with the latest Avid qualified hardware and software available: “iAshtray” Mac Pros, tank-like rack mounted Sonnet chassis, HDX or HD Native cards etc. All fully qualified, just the way I like it.
This is all jolly nice for my clients, but my own personal 2006 Mac Pro 1,1 with a Cinema display (purchased from a friend for a pittance) sits there languishing quite a few operating systems behind on OSX Lion 10.7.5 running Pro Tools 10.3.10 HD. Bugger…
I’d read that some very clever folk had managed to persuade an old Mac Pro to run Mountain Lion and then Mavericks, and searching the Interwebs, I did indeed find a number of solutions that seemed to require entering a lot of commands in Terminal, creating boot partitions and generally patting your head and chewing gum at the same time. So I decided to wait a wee while until I found a more elegant solution. The wait seems to have been worth it, as I now have my poor old machine running on OSX Yosemite 10.10.2 and Pro Tools 11.3.1
The main restriction for a 2006/7 Mac Pro is that it was designed to boot into a 32-bit environment, even though a lot of the internal hardware was 64-bit capable. The clever bunnies out there in the Wild World Webby, have managed to fool a Ye Olde Mac Pro to run in 64 bit EFI.
Things that you will need:
All of the above cost me around $200 US, I had a spare 1TB 7200 rpm SATA drive, USB drives are cheap and seem to breed like rabbits. They also seem to disappear down the black hole that guitar picks, iLok 2 lids and single socks end up.
I’m going to assume that you’re booting from your old Lion system drive, so go ahead and download all the bits and bobs from the links above. Depending on your internet speed, this may take some time, so make a nice pot of tea. If you’re in Australia, as I am, you have plenty of time to make a nice batch of scones with jam and cream, thanks to our advanced network infrastructure.
Once you’ve finished downloading, place the files somewhere safe, it could be on a USB drive etc
I popped the files on one of my media drives temporarily so I could access them from my old system drive or my new system drive. (yet to be created, mwahhahaha)
Open up your Mac Pro, take the nasty GT120 graphics card out and pop in the ATI Radeon 5770. This card takes its power from the motherboard, so make sure you’ve got the correct power cable.

Install your new system drive, but leave the Lion drive in for the moment. I usually put new, unformatted drives in bay 4… Just so I know…
Reboot your rig into OSX Lion and make sure the new graphics card is AOK. You could format your new system drive at this stage as well. Call it something like “Yosemite HD” or “Kevin” if you wish.
Double and triple check that you’re formatting the correct drive… (Doh) Bay 4, remember??
Open up Lion Diskmaker X and follow the instructions to create a bootable USB “special” Yosemite installer from the big Yosemite image you download before. This is the patched version of Yosemite.
Don’t install the Apple App store version as this does not have ze patch…
This can take some time, so be patient and do something useful for the planet, like knitting a vest for our wee penguins on Phillip Island.
You’re done. I then optimise OSX Yosemite for Pro Tools, turning off mission control, notifications, silly kitten desktop pictures etc.
This not a job for the faint-hearted, but it’s still pretty easy to do if you like to get your hands dirty.
I replaced the old processors (dual cores) with SLAED Xeon 5355’s. EBay again, cost $80 US each.
This mod doubles the amount of processor cores giving a significant speed bump.

Cme piano. I now have the choice to boot into OSX Lion 10.7.5 with PT10.3.10 HD OR boot into OSX Yosemite 10.10.2 with PT11.3.1. As an added bonus, my processor cores have gone from 4 to 8 at 3GHz.The new graphics card no longer struggles like the old GT120 did.
Both the software and hardware changes, including the processor upgrades were done comfortably in an afternoon. Download times were about 7 days with our advanced Australian Internet speeds.
The main reason why I wanted PT11.x running was for the video engine and faster than real-time bounce as I have recently completed a filum project that required a whole bunch of stems.
I used PT10HD for the editing and mixing, then bumped over to PT11.3.1 for stem creation.
Next thing to do for the ye olde Mac is to find some more RAM and change the Yosemite system drive to an SSD. It seems that I should be able to get quite a few more years of life from a machine that officially could not run a 64 bit OS or applications. For a machine from 2006, this is pretty cool and I’ve managed to spend under $400 US to achieve it.
Don’t forget to offer up some shekels for the shareware products.
