How Can I Turn Off Or Disable Unnecessary Apple Programs From Running In Background? I use my Mac mini Late 2012 strictly for music production on a DAW with various DAW plugins. I have no need for software like Wifi, iTunes, CommerceKit, Mail, Notification Center, Contacts, Updater, Spotlight, Calendar, Airplay, iCloud, CallHistory, PhotoAgent, etc. not even Safari. Is there a way, say using Terminal or Services, to shut down or disable everything that Activity Monitor shows running except for those applications directly related to audio production? [Yes, I know Apple makes computers for the average home user's general lifestyle. If I could find a computer dedicated to only music production, I'd get one!]
