Start Terminal.app and type:
sudo nvram boot-args="kext-dev-mode=1"
Verify that command works by typing:
sudo nvram -p | grep -i boot-args
You should see a line:
boot-args kext-dev-mode=1
Now reboot. If you plug in your razer stuff after the reboot you should see the following in Console.app:
19/09/14 11:12:05,837 com.apple.kextd[19]: kext-dev-mode allowing invalid signature -67023 0xFFFFFFFFFFFEFA31 for kext "/System/Library/Extensions/RazerHid.kext"
Go ahead! Hopefully it's useful :)
Sweet.
EDIT: Doesn't work when plugged into TB display.
Also, seems that the lighting controls do nothing.
Ah wish I found this ages ago. Thank you. Also if at anytime you want to restore changes made just type 'sudo nvram -d boot-args'
Disabling kext signing is not a fix for that. Doing that, you are disabling build in security. Now any third party kext file can be loaded. Razor needs to provide a correctly signed kext file.
I am not permitted to the operation reboot in the terminal. Am I missing anything?
Can someone describe what this fix does?
@name153, This "fix" disables a part of macOS's built in security. Specifically, the part responsible for preventing malicious kernel extensions from being installed. A kernel extension (or kext) extends or otherwise modifies low level parts of the operating system. Enabling kext-dev-mode allows any kernel extension to be installed, not just those with valid certificates issued by Apple.
What do you mean by reboot
By reboot, he means restart your computer.
Use the plus button to find and allow the Razer Synapse as an application in the Security & Privacy > Accessibility settings. This will make it so Razer Synapse can do what it needs in order to make changes and run properly.
Hi, i have a problem with Razer Synapse 2.0.When ever i open it, it paused then closes. i have tried re installing twice with no luck. The older versions of Razer Synapse didn't give me this problem: How to Fix Razer Synapse Not Working On Windows 10
