Re: LiveSafe not working on macOS Monterey

Jump to solution

This is happening for me as well. When I try to launch McAfee, it immediately quits and displays and error: "McAfee LiveSafe - Internet Security quit unexpectedly."

It's been happening for a while.

I'm on a Mac with the 8-Core Intel Core i7 Processor, running  Monterey version 12.4.

I'm thinking about asking for a refund and dumping the application.

This was fixed for me (crashes/quitting unexpectedly) when switched to Total Protection and MacOs upgraded to Monterey v12.5

Can not see VPN though - see other logged problem

Just upgraded to a 2021 M1 MacBook Pro running Monterey 12.6.1 and Livesafe will not Scan or update it just keeps crashing. Have you resolved yours?

Hi @PK57 

We are sorry to hear that. Please let us know the McAfee version which is installed on the machine. Have you tried re installing the application ?

Hi my MacBook is running monterey but after installing and reinstalling McAfee Livesafe any attempt to update or run a scan results in the application crashing. I have contacted support who have advised me that there are some issues that they are looking into.

So far really unimpressed with support, as I always have been. I upgraded to Ventura and it still didnt work. I have read that some M1 users have this working, but not I.

Comment about authorizing McAfee kernel extension is a good one. For non-Macos admins, how can we do that and what extension are we looking for?

I reboot and it appears LiveSafe is running OK, get a message within 15min that it isn't and cannot restart LiveSafe firewall or real-time scanning.
