NOTE: Mac OS Sierra (10.12.x), High Sierra (10.13.x), Mojave (10.14.x), Catalina (10.15.x), Big Sur (11.x), and Monterrey (12.x) computers no longer need a CAC Enabler. REMINDER: Users who choose to upgrade (or already have upgraded) to Mac OS Catalina (10.15.x), Big Sur (11.xx.x), or Monterey (12.x.x) will need to uninstall all 3rd Party CAC enablers per https://militarycac.com/macuninstall.htm AND reenable the native smart card ability (very bottom of macuninstall link above) Try to access the CAC enabled site you need to access now. If you have problems, please follow images below to verify if your CAC is being read by your computer Click the Apple Icon in the upper left corner of the desktop, select "About This Mac" Click the "System Report..." button Scroll down the left column to the "Software" section then click on "SmartCards" If you see hundreds of lines of "gibberish" these are your certificates being read from your CAC. Example of CAC not being read. You'll only see roughly15 lines of text. If this is what is happening to you, it could mean your CAC reader needs a driver or firmware update. Look for your reader on the CAC readers page to verify if your reader and CAC combination is compatible with each other. REMINDER: Users who choose to upgrade (or already have upgraded) to Mac OS Catalina (10.15.x), Big Sur (11.xx.x), or Monterey (12.x.x) will need to uninstall all 3rd Party CAC enablers per https://militarycac.com/macuninstall.htm AND reenable the native smart card ability (very bottom of macuninstall link above) Mac support provided by: Michael Danberry
