Not too long ago my laptop started randomly exhibiting a popup I’ve by no means seen earlier than:
I have not put in any new software program and I am not working any apps that I do not usually run. I this laptop each day for work, approx 8 hours a day so it is odd to see one thing new like this. Additionally, to my data I am not working any “Apple Media Providers” and do not know what that may be referring to.
After I click on “Cancel” it goes away for some time however comes again a couple of hours later.
What is perhaps inflicting this popup? If there isn’t any clear reply, how can I am going about investigating?
This can be a Mac Studio working macOS Sonoma 14.5.
I’ve left the popup lively for now in hopes somebody would possibly have the ability to assist pinpoint the precise course of or software that is inflicting this.
UPDATE:
I grepped the final minute of my logs simply now when this popup got here again and bought this:
log present --last 5m --style compact | grep -i mediaservice
