What Happened To Dr. Cleaner For Mac

Posted on  by



As a recently converted mac user I am interested to see if there is a Mac equivalent to pc's 'disk cleanup' and a defragger. I know mac's are far more robust than pc's but they surely need a clean every so often. I have seen many apps such as Mac Keeper, Mac Cleanse, CleanMyMac and more. Which is the best? However, the Mac OS X tools have not been tested on Mac OS X later than 10.2.6, and is known to be incompatible with Mac OS X 10.3 (Panther). Features: Norton Disk Doctor, Speed Disk, FileSaver, UnErase, Volume Recover, LiveUpdate. Speed Disk does not run on Mac OS X, except by booting with Norton Utilities 7.0 CD.

Mac's don't need defragging as OS X automatically writes 2Gb or below sized files to one contiguous space on the drive. There are certain cases where's it's needed to free up a large spaces on the drive, but not something everyone has to do.

Far as other Mac maintainence, there really isn't any except to backup one's files regularly. Keeping Software Updated and run a web browser check to make sure the plug-ins are current.

Most of those cleaning programs are junk, especially MacKeeper.


If your friend got onto your computer and visited a bunch of adult sites, then I would recommend something like OnyX, doing ALL the cleaning and maintenance aspects and rebooting, perhaps followed by a Disk Utility Erase free space.


CCleaner beta is out for OS X, used on PC's and combines cleaning and scrubbing of the drive if setup correctly.
