Commands:
symsched -l list the jobs for current user
sudo symsched -l does it for root
su jsmith, password, symsched -l shows for jsmith
I think it runs multiple times because it is configured for each user account on computer
Solution:
Delete all with symsched -d all and do that for every local user
Now run this and change the 24hr time to whatever time you want. This will run for all users.
sudo symsched LiveUpdate "Update All Daily" 1 0 -daily 07:17 "All Products" -quiet
As far as I have noticed this has seemed to work. It stopped the annoying pop up of live update and the antivirus was a day or 2 old.

Thanks! seems more elegant than the cron hack i was going to try. I'll post my results with this.
ReplyDeleteTHANK YOU!! I haven't waited long enough for it to work yet but I think it will- despite scheduling it to run once a week it was running every time I opened my mac and then hourly. When I ran symsched -l it showed that every hour it was updating. Then I ran symsched -d all and it was deleted. Thanks again.
