@marcoarment You just have to use the app to remove a computer; doesn’t have to be running on the computer you’re removing.
Everyone telling me how to remove a computer from CrashPlan’s app ON that computer: doesn’t work when you don’t have that computer anymore.

@marcoarment See also: iCloud Tabs for Safari instances that don’t exist anymore. -

@marcoarment Worked for me just fine about two weeks ago when I removed two computers I hadn't owned for months. -
@marcoarment But now I see your "ON that computer" qualification. Obviously, I didn't have the computers I removed anymore.

@marcoarment same problem here. It's telling me about computers that haven't been used for 8 months… -
@marcoarment Carbonite also remembers old computers, and you can’t remove them though the files are removed after 30 days. -
@marcoarment Install crashplan on new computer. “Adopt” old computer. Delete computer from account. -
@marcoarment you can remove any machine from the app, not just the current one -
@marcoarment Well you really should’ve thought about that before you gave it to@siracusa for review compatibility testing -
@marcoarment Reminds me of an iPad I synced with an old computer. Can’t use a new one because I have to disable the sync from iTunes. -
@marcoarment I had the exact same issue. Resorted to creating a GMail filter for the you-need-to-backup emails. Their support was useless.
