Description Of Issue
System has been performing wonderfully with Roon 1.6. I decided to upgrade to 1.7 two months ago. I first downloaded the remote app to my iPads and then proceeded to upgrade the core. The red triangle with exclamation point keeps reminding me of available upgrade. I click on upgrade: it says downloading, installing, stable. then click to relaunch, roon program disappears and never relaunches. I reopen roon and it is the old 1.6. My iPads no longer work with 1.6, I have read numerous threads about various problems with catalina including that the roon.app appears in the accessibility list, setup screen, mac os media key support etc. I can’t seem to get my mac to accept 1.7
I have been using 1.6 with no remotes for a few months now.
thanks for your help in advance.

On your iMac, go to System Preferences > Security and Privacy > Privacy tab. Then click Files and Folders On the left.

Are you able to see Roon showing Removable Volumes with a check mark?

If not, try and add a check mark. You may click and unlock at the bottom left of the window.

[Carlos_Rodriguez]

no I see Roon there with a subtitle of “full disk access” without a subtitle of “removable volumes” I tried to add a check mark to “full disc access” without success.

You need to check the Full Disk Access folder settings above in the left side of your screen shot

Hi @Carlos_Rodriguez,

I would suggest to create a Backup of your current Roon Database and then download the latest version of Roon again from our download page and install it on top:

Hello, I had tried to download the new version previously without success, it had asked me if i wanted to replace the version already on the hard drive with the new version and at the time I said yes… This time at the same prompt I had it install in addition to the old version “installl it on top”? : and yes it was successful. Thanks so much!! Looking forward to valence
