I am trying to redownload my Office: mac 2011 to my Mac Book Pro. When I put in the Office: Mac 2011 disc it keeps telling me to quit the following applications-- Sync Services Agent. I have tried to "force quit" this app. but it continues to run. I need some help on this. Thanks!
MacBook Pro, Mac OS X (10.7.4)
I've never had an issue restarting it. It should restart itself immediately if you follow the process I have described. If not, I'm sure a restart will have the same effect.
This is the only solution that worked for me:
launchctl remove com.microsoft.SyncServicesAgent
It works, thanks a lot.
Supplanter, this worked when NOTHING else would. Thank you so much!
Disabling the internet did not work for me. What did work for me was killing the parent process, then kill the SyncAgent!!
Thanks I have the same problem from time to time, so this is brilliant - easy way to turn them off and find them. 🙂
No, I can't quite SyncSErvicesAgent still. Any other ideas?
Thanks for that - I just typed
launchctl remove com.microsoft.SyncServicesAgent
into Terminal - all fine.
Supplanter you rock! Thank you for allowing me to use my Outlook again!
Outstanding! This worked after months of failure.
Thank you!
Your solution was just the ticket! Thank youuuuu!!!
How do I turn off Sync Services Agent?
