Resolving CD/DVD Mounting Errors with SIP Enabled
If your Mac refuses to mount audio CDs after using OCLP or macOS Tahoe, it's a Sandbox violation in the diskarbitrationd process.
The Proper Solution:
- Don't Fully Enable SIP: OCLP requires certain parts of System Integrity Protection (SIP) to be disabled (usually 0x03 or 0x0803) to allow legacy filesystem kexts to load.
- Kext Permission: If you must have SIP enabled, you need to manually 'Allow' the
AppleBinaryHandlerandIOCDStorageFamilyin System Settings > Security & Privacy. - The OCLP Way: Re-run the OCLP app, go to Settings > Security, and ensure you are using the 'Default' OCLP SIP setting. This is the most secure configuration that still allows hardware like CD drives to function.
Original Question: "Anyone else unable to mount audio CDs with SIP enabled?"
 | on my macbook pro 16,1 i have tahoe and catalina dualbooted. i was listening to a CD in tahoe, rebooted into catalina only to see that it refuses to mount any audio CDs, with disk utility giving me that error in the screenshot. (doesn't come up online) the only way i could get it to read CDs again was by disabling SIP. which i didn't feel was a proper solution. so i checked my 2013 mac pro which has OCLP installed and SIP set to the OCLP default config. i then fully enabled SIP and saw that it had the same mounting issue. this is one of those weird filesystem security things so i thought this would be the best place to ask.
