Learn what to do if the Arduino Cloud Agent isn't detected by the [Arduino Cloud](https://cloud.arduino.cc/).

If you haven't done so, [install the Arduino Cloud Agent](https://create.arduino.cc/getting-started/plugin/welcome). If you still encounter one of the warnings bellow, follow the [troubleshooting steps](#troubleshooting).

* `Arduino Cloud Agent not found`
* `To upload a sketch via USB port, make sure the Agent is installed and running on this computer`

<a id="troubleshooting"></a>

## Troubleshooting

1. Check if the [Arduino Cloud Agent is running](https://support.arduino.cc/hc/en-us/articles/4980687506844), since sometimes it may be **off** or **paused**.

2. If you are using [Brave Browser](https://brave.com/), see [Use Arduino Cloud with Brave Browser](https://support.arduino.cc/hc/en-us/articles/10482021304988-Use-Arduino-Cloud-with-Brave-Browser).

3. **If you're using Safari on macOS:** Check if the HTTPS certificate for Safari has been installed:
1. Open the Arduino Cloud Agent menu (Look for the ![Arduino Cloud Agent icon](img/cloud-agent-logo-mac.png) icon in the top-right of the menu bar of macOS).
2. Click on the **Manage HTTPS certificate** menu and make sure that the certificate is installed and trusted.
If it’s not, you can click on the button "Install the certificate for Safari".
3. Enter the administrative credentials, if prompted.
4. Refresh the Safari browser window.

4. If you're using the [Cloud Agent on a Mac computer with an Apple Silicon processor](https://github.com/arduino/arduino-create-agent#apple-m1-support) (e.g. Apple M1 chip), make sure to [install Rosetta 2](https://support.apple.com/en-us/HT211861).

If you are still having issues, [uninstall the Arduino Cloud Agent](https://support.arduino.cc/hc/en-us/articles/360014869840) and [reinstall it](https://create.arduino.cc/getting-started/plugin/welcome).

title: About Arduino Cloud Agent on macOS Ventura
id: 6489572696220
---

> [!NOTE]
> MacOS Ventura introduced new security requirements that resulted in issues running or installing the Arduino Cloud Agent. As a temporary solution, a special release[^1] was made for macOS Ventura with the auto-update feature disabled. These issues have been resolved in newer releases (1.3.0+).

Learn about using the Arduino Cloud Agent on macOS Ventura.

## Arduino Cloud Agent 1.3.0+ supports macOS Ventura

[^1]: <https://github.com/arduino/arduino-create-agent/releases/tag/1.2.7-ventura>

Here's how to get the latest version:

* If you're installing Arduino Coud Agent for the first time, use the **[Arduino Cloud agent installation guide](https://create.arduino.cc/getting-started/plugin/welcome)** to get the latest version.
* If you previously installed the **1.2.7-ventura** version, see [Manually upgrade from Cloud Agent 1.2.7-ventura on macOS](#1.2.7-ventura-upgrade).
* Unsure which version you have? See [Check your Cloud Agent version](#check-version).

Learn how to check if the **Arduino Cloud Agent** is installed and running on your computer.

---

1. _Make sure the agent is not paused._ Look for the ![Arduino Cloud Agent icon](img/cloud-agent-logo-mac.png) icon in the top-right of the menu bar (macOS and Linux) or bottom-right of the taskbar (Windows), usually within the system tray:

![The Cloud Agent in the system tray on Windows.](img/cloud-agent-system-tray.png)

If you find it, click it. If a _Resume Agent_ option is available, the agent is currently paused. Click _Resume Agent_ to resume.

2. _Find and start the application_. Try searching for "Arduino Cloud Agent" or looking for it in your application menu. Alternatively, use the system's file browser and look in the default installation paths:

* **Windows:** `C:\Users\{username}\AppData\Roaming\ArduinoCloudAgent\Arduino_Cloud_Agent.exe`

* **macOS:** `/Applications/ArduinoCloudAgent.app` [^1]

* **Linux** `home/{username}/ArduinoCloudAgent/ArduinoCloudAgent`

3. _Install or reinstall the agent._ If you can't find the application, follow the [online installation guide](https://create.arduino.cc/getting-started/plugin/welcome) to install the agent.

[^1]: Older versions of the agent can be found at:

* `/Applications/ArduinoCreateAgent.app`
* `Users/{username}/Applications/ArduinoCreateAgent`
