Tethering stopped working on Lightroom Classic 11.0.1 for Nikon D800E on M1Pro Mac running macOS 12

Question

Hi
Using the new MBPro with M1Pro Chip and LrC 11.01, my Nikon D800E does not conect at all - no error message. A Nikon D7100 does work, just live view does not. Both cameras are connected by USB (not at the same time) and using an Apple USB A to USB C adapter.
The D800E does work fine on an older MacBookAir with Big Sur and LrC 11.01
 
Supprot suggests to downgrade to LrC 10.3 or 4, honestly not the thing to look forward to, as all catalogues just have been updated to LrC 11. Befor I will give that a try, any other ideas, suggestions?

Hi,

We're sorry about the trouble with Lightroom Classic. Would you mind telling us if the Nikon D800E ever worked on the M1 Pro MacBook?

Please ensure that Lightroom Classic has the necessary permissions on the Mac by following the steps suggested below:

1. Go to the System Preferences for your Mac, then Security and Privacy, then select the Privacy tab.

2. Then select Accessibility from the list to the left & check if Lightroom Classic is added to the list with a check mark in front of it.

3. If Lightroom Classic is not a part of the list, please add it by unlocking the window first using the lock at the bottom left, then clicking the + icon & navigating to the Applications folder.

4. Also, grant permissions to Lightroom Classic under Full disk access located in the same list as Accessibility.

5. Once done, restart the Mac & check if it helps.
