Hi! I have Norton on my Dell and on my Mac. It works great on my Dell, but on my Mac it continually tries to block one application: iDrive. I click "allow" and "don't ask again," but Norton continually asks me to allow the application. Then, Norton continually tries to block the application. There are thousands of these items logged in the history. I am so tired of this issue and all the pop-ups. I don't see any reason for Norton to be blocking the iDrive program just on my Mac. I am thinking of switching to a different anti-virus program. I have looked in the forums but have never found an answer. I thought I would ask before switching to a new antivirus program.
I have the same issue. Sometimes it would take me 5-10 minutes to actually get online even though I was connected. Norton would pop up all these permissions which were already allowed in my firewall setting over and over before it would allow me online. Also blocked IDrive which I have had for ages. I finally just uninstalled it and set up my MacBook Pro firewall. No more connection problems. No more permissions for Adobe. IDrive works fine. Computer overall much faster. I rarely look at any site that might be an issue and now just stay within what I really need. I am running High Sierra.
I am having the same problem. I run Catalina 10.15.2. I click "Allow" and "Don't ask again" but Norton asks again every time for Adobe Acrobat Pro DC, for Microsoft Word, for Microsoft AutoUpdate, for AdobGCClient, and many others. This does not happen when I am running a virtual Windows machine on the same Mac. Can Norton fix the "Don't ask me again" check box? If not, can Norton remove it as an option so that the cost for using the firewall or not is clear?
Now Norton is incessantly blocking the programs Private Internet Access (PIA) and Google Chrome besides IDrive. What do I have to do to get Norton to allow me to use these programs and still function appropriately.
