Ejectify is not working about ejectify-macos

[nielsmouthaan]

I've seen these kinds of cards cause issues, indeed. Might be worth checking how it works when connecting them directly.

Can you see the app running in the status bar? Please also check the FAQ to see if it contains anything that can help solve the issue you're experiencing.

Yes, app is showing up in status bar. Already checked FAQ, nothing helped. No difference between admin user of not. Anything else I can try?

[nielsmouthaan]

What exactly is the issue you're experiencing?

[boxerfan89]

Well, the app does not unmount the external drive. I tried all options in the app, different usb ports. No change, still this annoying messages.

[nielsmouthaan]

Have you tried the force unmount option, too? That surely should unmount the drive as it doesn't wait for other processes to stop using the volume.

[boxerfan89]

yes, but no reaction. If I use "unmount all" however, the drives are unmounted.

[nielsmouthaan]

Then there's either a process that stops Ejectify from unmounting the volumes while your Mac starts sleeping (or whatever trigger you've configured) or the trigger isn't executed (e.g. set to eject when your Mac starts sleeping but your Mac actually doesn't sleep, but its displayed are just turned off).

[boxerfan89]

well, my Mac clearly starts sleeping, otherwise the messages won´t appear. Any idea how I could identify the process which is stopping ejectify?

[nielsmouthaan]

See this FAQ, especially the 4th bullet point.

I'm still getting repeated error messages about the drives getting repeatedly removed incorrectly when the Mac (Mac Pro 2012, Mojave) is supposed to be sleeping, a dozen times or more overnight. I've tried all the settings: at sleep, at screensaver, at screen lock. Same problem I had before Ejectify. Am thinking it has to do with a pcie plug-in card that offers me some USB 3.0 slots and a USB C connection. I'm going to try it with the drives extended directly from the built in USB 2.0 jacks
