OSX: Authentication for ReWire every time?

Hi,

In mac, I get a window every new session in the OS, which says: “Authentication is required to install the Renoise ReWire engine.” It asks me for my password so I can continue. If I enter my password, I can open Renoise a second time, without any notification.

I wonder if I am doing something wrong. I must say that Renoise is not installed in the Applications folder, but a sub-folder I made inside it for the music software.

Thanks for your help,

Hello,

There can only one “Renoise” ReWire client registered, so when starting up different Renoise versions or Renoise 32/64 bits, every Renoise app will ask again to install themselves as “the” ReWire slave. This is a bit ugly, but unfortunately expected.

So, have you probably switched between Renoise 32/64 bit versions and/or older and newer Renoise versions?
If not, could you post your Renoise.log here so we can have a more detailed look at this (Renoise -> Help -> Show Renoise Log file…)

Hi,

Sadly the same Problem here after i deinstall and installed the same Renoise Version on my MacBook Air again

Every new session the OS, which says: "Authentication is required to install the Renoise ReWire engine.

Before i got Trouble with X-Stream, maybe my fault, new on Apple and also Renoise after many Years of Silence.

another or the same Problem, i dont see, can read the shortcuts, on: Preferences - Keys - Print (i see there only blank white)

Hello people, I have this problem on my mac mojave and my macbook high sierra.

The high sierra one has only a single version on renoise installed but it keeps on asking me for permission to install the Renoise ReWire Engine.

here’s the log:

I managed to fix it by moving the Renoise_Reg file into the Applications folder.
