Please refer to the Release Notes of each build for more details. This document aims to clarify information for compatibility and Symantec Encryption Desktop.
- Mar 06, 2020 Compatibility of Norton™ products with macOS ®. The table below is a quick reference for compatibility of Norton products with Mac OS X. A Yes in the table indicates that the Norton product is compatible with the Mac OS X, and a No indicates that it is not compatible.
- Jan 31, 2018 The laboratory of AV-TEST examined a total of 13 products under MacOS Sierra. The first 9 on the list are for home users: Avast Security 12.9 Bitdefender Antivirus for Mac 6.1 Comodo Antivirus 2.2 F-Secure Safe 17.0 Intego Mac Internet Security X9 10.9 Kaspersky Lab Internet Security for Mac 18.0 Sophos Home 1.2 Symantec Norton Security 7.5.
Oct 10, 2019 My Mac also crashes regularly since installing 360. And I'm still on High Sierra (10.13.6) with Norton 8.5.3 115. Clean doesn't seem to be working properly. VPN doesn't sem to be connecting properly.and this is an upgrade?
Applies To
Mac OS X and Symantec Encryption Desktop :
TIP: For more information on System Requirements for Symantec Encryption Desktop, please see KB article TECH224417.
Caution: Symantec Encryption Desktop 10.3.2 is not currently supported in the following scenario, however Symantec is currently looking into these scenarios as future features:
- Mac systems which have 4K Native drives. For more information, see article TECH200098.
TIP For SEE 11: For Mac OS X System Requirements for Symantec Endpoint Encryption 11, see article INFO3170. As a general rule of thumb, if Symantec Endpoint Encryption 11.1.2 has been certified for Mac OS X 10.12, it is also certified for 10.12 subsequent releases. It is not necessary to wait for a newer version of SEE 11.1.2 to use on a newer version of Mac OS X 10.12 as long as the version supports the base release of Mac OS X. For example, SEE 11.1.2 supports Mac OS X 10.12, so this can be used to install on Mac OS X 10.12.5.
______________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________________
The versions of Symantec Encryption Desktop and versions of Mac OS X contained in this article have been officially tested and certified. If versions of Mac OS X are not listed on this article, the version is not officially tested and is therefore not officially supported. It is not recommended to install on versions of Mac OS X unless stated on this article.

Failure to do so could result in data that cannot be recovered. This issue will be resolved in a future release of the product. [3653114]. For information on how to disable CoreStorage, see article HOWTO109622.

Norton AntiVirus 10 explicitly supports MacOS 10.4. I am using it on a number of 10.4.2 installs and am happy with it.
As to the rest of the Norton products: why in the world would you be using them. They have caused more problems then they have solved since MacOS 9. There is a reason they were discontinued.

ClamAV and ClamAVX are better products and free. They don't mess around with kernel extensions and they never break your system as Symantec products do with every update of OS X.
Best way to remove it's dregg is to never install it :-)
It's worked wonders for me.

Those poor Mac users must have missed the memo. Norton Utilities had its glory days back during OS 7/8/9. Although OS X generally needs a lot less babysitting.

When I switched to Macintosh a year ago, I was sure that I needed Norton System Works.. boy was that a mistake. Suddenly my fast Macintosh Powerbook turned into an unstable slug. Whew. Now you can't pay me enough money to touch a Symantec box with a 10 foot pool
I have always hated Norton since the days of OS 9 when it managed to CAUSE datal loss and hard drive crashes for me. I recently was helping a PeeCee friend figure out why they couldn't connect to their wireless network no matter what. Finally turned off all Symantec/Norton crap and BAM, everything works great. I advised a full uninstall and a switch to AVG. I hate Norton/Symantec. One of the worst computer products I've ever seen.

The Norton Utilities were great through Mac OS 9 for all of the computers I administered. I used them on dozens of computers and they kept the computers working with no downtime.
Now Norton Utilities is discontinued, and Mac OS X appears to be much more responsible regarding its filesystem.
I guess if I need a suite to replace what Norton Utilities did, I think I would look into Drive Genius:
http://www.prosofteng.com/products/drive_genius_info.php
Drive Genius just got a very favorable review and recommendation over on macfixit:
http://www.macfixit.com/article.php?story=20050710234551683
And no, Disk Warrior does not do everything that Norton Utilities did. It may be the best at what it does (directory repair and optimization), but it is still a one-trick pony, and not an Utilities suite.

I too am unable to download the file. Is there an alternate URL?
Or - to second the request - please can you post the file?
My problems are:
Ever since I updated to 10.3.9
I get upon startup following error messages:
Unable to load Norton Privacy Control extension
Norton Personal Firewall error (Kernel extension not launched)
Norton AntiVirus Error.
Updating to 10.4.2 changed nothing here.
At this stage I would simply like to uninstall, but the uninstaller provided by Norton with the software returns an error and does not do anything.
Thanks for any help or information.

Are you running firewall software? Try turning it off temporarily.
What program are you using to download the file? Try Transmit:

and then paste this link into transmit:

Good luck.

I guess my (Norton) firewall posed the problem - after turning it off I was able to download the file.
And, the uninstall worked!
Thank you for your help!

Totally agree here. Norton AV is worthless crap that's always the source of headaches. All Symantec products are.
ClamAV if you need virus software in OS X. Only way to go.
ClamAV if you need virus software in OS X. Only way to go.
While I completely agree that Norton products should be kept off your Macs (these days), I recently had a need for NAV when a friend contracted a Word virus (from a Windows user, natch). Unfortunately, ClamXav, as truly wonderful as it is, only detects viruses; it does not repair them as NAV does. Fortunately I have an old, OS9 version of NAV, and an OS9-bootable Mac I could run it on. But does anyone know of a good anti-virus program for OSX that will REPAIR infected files?
I tried Virex as an alternative, but it too has system extensions, automated schedulers, and tons of other CPU hogging components that are part of the required install, like NAV 10. I'm back to NAV 10 for now, but will watch this thread closely. How excited was I to find that NAV 10, like NAV 9, forces it's menu item on every new user created?!?! I love apps that hog the CPU and force their presence on your desktop/menu bar/system preference pane!
Sadly, this is a required install in my office because we send and receive tons of scripts. Many mail agents won't accept attachments with viruses, and lots of scripts are sent to us with macro viruses on them that HAVE TO be removed in order to forward them on. We have to fix problems we never created or were affected by.

The last time a 'Norton' product was actually worth installing was when Peter Norton was still doing the coding. IMNSHO, of course.
