Why does
Photos Agent
wants to connect to gcs-asia-00001.storage.googleapis.com on port 80 ?
I am suspicious of Google and try to avoid them as much as possible.
MacBook Air (13-inch Mid 2012), OS X Yosemite (10.10.4)
Hi Eric and thanks for replying. It comes usually within roughly 10 minutes after powering up and always happens sooner or later. I use Little Snitch and always deny it up to now. Dropbox opens automatically, I usually open up Mail, Safari and Calendar pretty much straight away and Textedit, Reminders, Notes, iBank and Libreoffice before too long, but I have not been able to associate it with any particular application.
Hi Eric, some more specific info...
I rebooted, LittleSnitch, ITunesHelper, Dropbox, Canon IJ Network Scanner, NoteBookHelper and MacUpdate Desktop loaded automatically. Then I loaded Netshade, Safari and Reminders. Within 10 minutes of reboot I received the googleapis request as before. Do you think it has anything to do with iCloud or Dropbox backups?
What are you doing when you get this message? Any particular application?
do you have any Google software installed?
Hi Eric
Not that I am aware of, certainly no Chrome or Google Earth.
By the way I am in Australia which is why I don't reply till the following day.
Thanks for your help.
