Thanks for the feedback Bill and Koz, much appreciated - I updated the Mac hose-down section based on that:

And I've updated the FAQ with links to those three sections:

I wonder if CleanMyMac does all this? When I uninstall an app, I always get a dire warning that everything but everything associated with it is about to be trashed. (Presumably all my projects aren't included in that!)

I've had problems with the new version that I'll detail in a separate post, but I may opt to let CleanMyMac purge it all and start over. If so, I'll look for those files and report back if it did indeed find and remove them.

CleanMyMac is very high on my personal "take outside and shoot" list.

What problems have you had with it, and do those relate to Audacity per se?

Many OSX'es with strange behviour that could only be fixed with a clean re-install...
