After installing Mojave (10.14.6) Security Update 2020-005, eyetv 3.6.9 couldn’t detect my eyetv hardware (250 plus). I was able to correct it by instructing macOS to ignore the security update. It requires a Mac user account with admin access and the use of the Terminal (command line) application.
NOTE: This will make your computer less secure and you won’t be able to do further macOS updates.
** Make sure you back up your computer before using this method. **
Log in to your Mac using an account with Admin privileges.
Open the Terminal application.
Verify Mojave Security Update 2020-005 is installed by typing the following at the prompt: softwareupdate -1
Press enter/return key
If installed, the following error will appear in the first few lines: Class AMSupportURLConnectionDelegate is implemented in/System/Library/PrivateFrameworks/OSPersonalization.framework/Versions/A/OSPersonalization (0x112f31358). One of the two will be used. Which one is undefined.
Type the following at the prompt: sudo softwareupdate --ignore "Security Update 2020-005"
Press enter/return key and you should see this: you should see this: Ignored updates:("Security Update 2020-005")
Repeat steps 3 & 4 to confirm that you don’t see the update.
You can reset ignored updates by running this command:
sudo softwareupdate --reset-ignored
