Mojave/Catalina – Stuck Connecting
If your Mac is running Mojave and Catalina and you don’t get prompted to allow the software you must manually do so. There is a security feature (likely a kernel extension) that is triggering the issue.
- Open System Preferences under the Apple logo at the top left.
- Click the Security & Privacy button around the middle.
- Click the lock icon in the bottom left of the window.
- Enter your computer password.
- Click the ”Allow” button on the page.
