MacOS – Clearing TEMP files on Mac OSX

You can check and re-assign ownership recursively over a directory tree with find, stat and chown.

#!/bin/bash

olduser=<oldusername> # replace this with your old username
newuser=<newusername> # replace this with your new username
dir=<dir> # replace this with the directory you want to run through

find $dir | while read filename
do
  owner=$(stat "$filename" | cut -d ' ' -f 5)
  if [ $owner == $olduser ]
  then
    chown $newuser $filename
  fi
done

You can disable the individual launchd job tickets using the launchctl tool:

sudo launchctl unload -w /Library/LaunchAgents/com.adobe.AAM.Updater-1.0.plist

This will immediately disable the job and the -w flag will stop the job from reloading next time you restart.

Given your dislike of these features, please provide feedback to Adobe, Google, and TeamViewer.

See disable screen sharing via the command line in mountain lion for alternative approaches for disabling launchd managed processes.
