I launched NA and got this:
Please Grant Permission to Native Access to Install Dependencies. Please Restart Native Access and Try Again
Absolutely nothing has changed in my system since I last launched NA. This is for NA2
Please check this article first:
Native Access Error: "Please grant permission to NTK Daemon to install dependencies"
If this doesn't work, you need to downgrade to Native Access 1: How to Downgrade Native Access 2 to Native Access 1

Hey @pranaearth I had put an older version of NTKDaemon in ther link, my apologies. I've updated the link, here it is again: NTKDaemon
@kipe @eliassinclair Please get in touch with our colleagues here: http://bit.ly/NIsupport_install
It seems like I found a solution (at least for my system and for now).
I kicked NTKDaemon out of the list for apps that got automatically started with a restart. Then reinstalled NTKDaemon:
Native Access App - Contents - Resources - daemon - mac - NTK Daemon Installer Mac.pkg
it will now automatically be added to the list again but this time it works.
Now it seems to be stable. Looks like the startup process did not work until you remove it there and then add again.
Good luck to everyone
@safeite Can you try these steps for Native Access 2 :
Also make sure that Rosetta is installed on your computer (it is needed for 1 little part of the Native Access installation.)
Did not work, had tried this previosly.
However, what DOES work on an M1 Mac is to right-click on the NA app in the Application folder and then show package contents. Navigate to Mac and the installer for the mac Daemon, launch, install, reboot. All is well now.
Possible issue: the downloadable daemon installer version installed does not contain all the data - the installer ALWAYS appears BLANK. The enclosed .app DAEMON install DOES have a selectable installable data-set in it’s window.
It appears there may TWO installers out there. one works, the other does not.
Please see other post with picts of the two divergent installers. One works, the other not at all.

@safeite Thanks for the update. Happy that it finally works for you!
Chiming in to say I was experiencing the same issue.
What finally solved it (after countless hours of debugging) was running this in terminal:
sudo launchctl enable system/com.native-instruments.NativeAccess.Helper2
I hope this helps some here who have seen this issue as well.
Looks like the Helper was permanently disabled within the launchctl database.
Thank you for posting this !
I can verify that this works on an Intel Mac too.
I tried everything else posted here, and nothing else worked, this took care of the issue.
I will try to post a picture of the full path to the Daemon installer pkg.
Once I double clicked that, it did it's thing, and the issue is gone.
Thanks again !!
EDIT: Ugh image didn't post for some reason.
Full path to Daemon installer once you right-click, and show contents of Native Access app package is :
Contents/Resources/daemon/mac/NTKDaemon Installer Mac.pkg
None of the suggestions here worked, nor did any of the suggestions support gave me. I had to go back to NA1. Everything is working as expected.
I was able to install Native Access 2.7 on my Macbook Pro with an M1 Pro just now, but only after a couple of attempts. This process worked:
Run Cleanup script and then reboot.
Run NTKDaemon installer (copied from new 2.7 folder)
Restart and then reinstall Native Access 2.7
I hope this still works whenever the next update is out with auto-update :-|
Erm, it's almost November, and on a Mac Studio Ultra running 12.6.1...
And downgrading, running the earlier installer has led to kernel panics during products install. :(
3.0.1 broke things again.. Getting "Please Grant Permission to Native Access to Install Dependencies" again now! smh
3.0.1 is the only available DL version on the NI website. I cannot install it because of the same permissions issue. Is there a direct 3.3.0 link available?
Hey everyone,
It seems that some users managed to fix this by entering this commanfd in Terminal:
sudo chmod -R 777 /Users/Shared/Native Instruments
If it works for you, can you let us know what is your OS ?
You sir are the best, worked right away
Holy Carp. I don't know how I missed this message. After installing the NTKDaemon, NA works. No more permissions error. Thanks a bunch for figuring this out

I found the solution you need to go to Application folder - Native access and click to show the package content /Applications/Native Access.app/Contents/Resources/daemon/Mac and click NTKDaemon .... and instal it it helped me
this method worked for me
Thanks!
This was helpful. It worked
