Hi, after installing Mavericks there's a new process 'com.apple.IconServicesAgent' in Activity Monitor using 165Mb of RAM.
Anyone has any idea what it is?
Thanks in advance
MacBook Pro, OS X Mavericks (10.9)
mine using 344MB of RAM... only lose memory usagefor kernel_task
Thanks Phaistonian - this fixed it for me too.
The Phaistonian fix stopped my Console error messages, but com.apple.IconServicesAgent is still running, currently using
116.3 MB of memory. Doesnt seem to ever stop running.
Hi sorry for my English, I have the same problem! i change The default browser to Google Chrome and the prosses down to 0.5 % CPU!!
Disk and Permissions Repairs run again several times - doesnt seem to make a difference here. Issues persist.
TIA.
mine once went to 190% CPU with loud fan noise. I closed all apps still it was same. So i just restarted to get back to normal.
I've tried everything and this little "problem" still persists.
It seems we'll have to wait for a system upgrade, but I don't expect anything.
The same problem!Using 99% CPU and the finder not work ðŸ˜
I noticed that iconServicesAgent on my Mini is usng 0% CPU so not sure why others have high numbers.
Just another "me too" from me. IconServicesAgent is using 100% CPU and I cannot figure out why 😟
Me too on a MBP. It is currently using 95%. Loud fan noise and machine is to hot to sit on lap.
sntain - Did not work here.
I get the pop-up window, but the options: Sample and Quit, are greyed out and inactive. I don't see the second pop-up; what should I do to open it?
Thank you...👿
Chiming in... Memory in use range this morning is 184 - 199 MB. No CPU activity however. MacBook Air 2013; 10.9.1
What is com.apple.IconServicesAgent?
