What are the elements “Other Developers” running in background – Background Items Added
If you see this notification on Mac, Background Items Added, it is good not to ignore it and make a brief check.
They are elements of applications installed on Mac, which run even when the applications are not open.
There are two main reasons why applications have these elements (processes). Timing and update.
Applications such as Google Chrome Use background processes to check if there are new software updates and synchronize your personal data from other devices, if you have authenticated Google account in browser.
Adobe Creative Cloud Use a number of processes that run in background even if you do not open any Adobe application. Photoshop, Illustrator, Premiere Pro, etc. Most of the creative cloud elements are for cloud synchronization and communication between Adobe applications. Such as the process AdobeIPCBroker (Adobe Inter-Process Communication Broker) which runs almost permanently on the macos.
How can you manage the items running in the background
open System Settings on macos, then go to “General” → “Login Items“.
In “Login Items” We have the applications that have elements that run in the background. Under the application name the number of elements appears.
From here we can activate or deactivate the running of the applications elements. In my case I activated the running in the background for Panic Inc. Applications Nova and Transmit They need to communicate with the synchronization server of the company and communicate with each other.
