TIP Sequoia adds an extra step when installing NI Hardware (Keyboards or Maschine) and Native Access

I found when updating to Sequoia that Apple now requires many apps and processes to be added to the Local Network for them to function correctly and this seems to include NIHostIntegrationAgent and NTKDaemon, as well as most DAWS, and things like iLok.

So if anyone is having problems with NI hardware or Native Access on Sequoia you need to enable this. Apps requiring access should initiate a popup asking for access, but if they don't you can also go to the Local network panel and turn it on manually

    @Kymeia Thank you so much once again. Wasn't aware of that, it could be super helpful in our troubleshooting.

    I don’t have this in my local network panel on Sequoia and I have been trying for many hours to try to get native access to install any product whatsoever and I’ve tried every step I could find on the Internet

    I presume you mean NTKDaemon - that's the one needed for install. Try shutting it down in Activity Monitor and then restarting. I found the popup asking to add it is sometimes a bit slow in initiating. If that fails maybe it can be deleted and Native Access reinstalled, making sure you allow all when asked?

    @Kymeia is correct…sequoia takes its time getting around to asking if you want to allow NKS agents access…

    Yeah for me after I installed Sequoia it seemed like every time I rebooted there were another few apps asking if I wanted to add them. I think it gets initiated only when the app needs to do something that uses the local network- if they are doing nothing it doesn’t come up. In the case of DAWs it seemed to be mostly when I opened a plugin that needed an internet connection to “phone home” - of course that is where this can be useful if you want to limit such things - but certainly for things like host integration blocking network access for that just resulted in DAW integration no longer working.

    Have you had any experience of KKontrol crashing logic? Seems to be when it tries to load certain presets or sounds…have seen a thread about some of those being legacy. More on this here

    Over on Logic Pro Help…they're saying that the M32 kb should come up as an M32, not as an A or S Series. gonna try deleting controller prefs when I get back to studio later.

    This "Local Network" thing has not solved my problem.
