Hello,

Thanks for the update to the Consumer Drone Series today, however I get this when launching the installer package.  I checked Apple-->System Preferences-->Security and Privacy-->General for any software I needed to grant permissions for (the usual culprit) but there is nothing special listed.  I am running Monterey 12.0.1 on an iMac 27" 2019, Intel.

Edit--  I see on the download page that this is not supported for 11+ macOS version.  I had successfully ran 2.1.5 on macOS 12 which is why I tried the new version.  It's not a problem, just a minor inconvenience, since I have a Windows partition on my Mac as well that I use for Windows only apps.  But i'd rather use the Mac version.  Anyone know of a workaround or an idea when it will be officially supported on macOS Monterey?

you should be allowed to opt in on your Mac , I’m not 100% sure how but you do have to allow these apps in security I think.

Hi there. Thank you for reaching out. DJI assistant 2 is currently not compatible with macOS v11 or up. We will surely keep you posted once the said software is now available on the latest version of MAC. Thank you for your understanding and support.

Thanks for the reply Paladin.  No problem, I have Windows too so I'll just install that version.

While DJI says it's not supported, it most certainly works fine on macs running the latest OS softwares. It runs fine on my 2017 macbook pro running Big Sur 11.6. I suspect they say it's not supported because their one mac guy doesn't get any budget to keep updated and hence can't test things adequately.

As far as installing it, start the installation like anything else, and when you get the security error code, click cancel or ignore. Then open system preferences>security and privacy, look on the "general" tab, and in the bottom pane there should be a repeat warning, but with an option to "open anyway?" - click yes, and then open, and the installer should start again.

Thanks for the tip, but in the OP it states I already checked that :-).  And if your still on 11.6 you are not on "the latest OS softwares."

Sorry, my misread - I have trouble keeping up with the various macOS naming conventions. Never mind.

I believe I just figured out what the problem is. It will run on Macs above 11 and above, but NOT "M Series" Macs. I have verified it working on my old MacBook Pro running Monterey and not running on my M1 MacBook Air

No problem I use it on my MacBook Air M1 2020 ( Open the Apple menu > System Preferences > Security & Privacy > General tab. Under Allow apps downloaded from select App Store and identified developers: Download and install the app).
