Fix for major crashing on Mac M3 Max in NTKDaemon

scottmusic

tried to update and download the latest Native iNstruments Player 8 but crashing for any installs.
Deleted most of the native instruments support apps, etc. Re-install, restart, same issues.

Hey!

I’ve experienced similar crashing issues with NTKDaemon on my Mac. Here are a few steps that helped me:

First, try deleting the Native Instruments Preferences folder in your Documents. This can often resolve lingering issues from previous installations.

Next, download and reinstall the latest version of Native Access from the Native Instruments website. Make sure to install this before any other software.

Check your System Preferences to ensure that Native Access has Full Disk Access under Privacy settings.

If crashes continue, consider restarting your Mac in Safe Mode and then attempting the installation again. This can help avoid conflicts with other software.

I hope this helps! If you find this useful, feel free to give it a like!

Unfortunately, it seems like Native Instruments and Demon are very buggy.

Glad I haven't invested anything in yet.

It was working previously until their update.

Went back through help and double-checked the iCloud replay and the full access and it now works.
It would be so much better if they provided an ID of the error.
