May 7, 2012 12:37 PM in response to marrtoby marrto,So I visted the BB Help Forum and I found this solution:
Solution:
1) If it's OK for you to uninstall the BB software from your Mac, delete it the usual way.
2) Then have a look at your HD at /Library/Application Support and delete the complete folder named "Black Berry"
3) Restart the system, empty the bin and everything should be fine.
(If there should be an error message "process BBdaemon ist running" while you're emptying the bin, try to open the activity monitor and kill the rimalbumartdaemon-process)

Aug 24, 2012 9:43 AM in response to marrtoby tferrerd,Oh my goodness, this was so helpful! It literally changed my macbook experience. My battery used to last 2 hours at full charge with no programs running and wi-fi off. Now it lasts 6-7 hours with normal use. Endless thanks, Marrto!

Nov 18, 2012 11:19 PM in response to marrtoby Crocodile,It seems the name of this plist may have changed to com.rim.BBAlbumArtCacher. I wanted to keep the BB Desktop software around, but get rid of the problematic processes, so I ran:
launchctl unload -w /Library/LaunchAgents/com.rim.BBAlbumArtCacher.plist
launchctl unload -w /Library/LaunchAgents/com.rim.BBLaunchAgent.plist

Jul 29, 2014 8:03 AM in response to georgekplby Michele B,Maybe you already uninstalled the Desktop Software but you didn't removed successfully the com.rim.BBDaemon, com.rim.BBLaunchAgent and com.rim.RimAlbumArtDaemon files. The best (and quicker way) to do it is to do as karbhawono suggested:
Here's what I do from terminal:
Using superuser:
sudo launchctl remove com.rim.BBDaemon
Using regular user:
launchctl remove com.rim.BBLaunchAgent
launchctl remove com.rim.RimAlbumArtDaemon
If you already removed the files (check the /Library/Application/Black Berry folder) my only idea to reinstall the BB Desktop Software and run the uninstaller, or trying to run directly the uninstaller from the .iso file.
Please post the results or your solution!
