FB10143188 - Safari detected an app or service that interfered with clicking #24

Open lapcat opened 1 year ago

lapcat commented 1 year ago

The alert "Safari detected an app or service that interfered with clicking" appears mistakenly when trying to enable a Safari app extension. This has been a bug for more than 2 years, and the bug still exists on macOS 13 Ventura. It happened with a clean install of Ventura on an empty volume, and no third-party software installed except my own Safari extensions. https://lapcatsoftware.com/articles/enable-extensions.html

Apple's response:

Yes, this was resolved in macOS 13.

Yes, this was resolved in macOS 13.

Apparently it wasn't. It just got this today on macOS 14.5. Screenshot 2024-06-26 at 12 22 25 PM

Do you have any utility apps or the like that have invisible windows over the Safari Settings window? That can trigger it. Screen recording (in QuickTime or otherwise) is a common trigger (that is expected).

No.

No.

From the beginning, this has always been a random bug, not "works as expected", and I've encountered it at random times on 3 different Macs.
