Clean My Mac 2

Hello everybody This is to say I have tried and quickly bought the much talked about Clean My Mac 2 application for my Late 2011 Macbook Pro. All I can say is it is incredible! One feature that stands out for me is the ability to reset applications in the uninstaller section. So say you screwed

When it's muted. It can't be completely off. Different displays will be different for convenient access from the display itself, but you can still (I would argue, inconveniently) access VoiceOver from the keyboard while using braille, no matter the display. Ditto for the trackpad, if you have

Yep, the reason for that you can't use Disk Utility to repartition is that it doesn't yet support manipulating CoreStorage groups, which is what FileVault-encrypted volumes and Fusion Drives are made from. So if you have one of these, you have to drop to the command line to delete the CoreStora

I wouldn't think ClamAV could scan your email in any useful way anyway. It's stored by your ISP, so they should be the one scanning for you. Should they not be doing this, but you are using POP3, then you could try scanning your Library folder, which would contain your email data, although I'd
