    Good morning rippers! PLEASE I could really use some help here! I have tried everything I can think of, including using an AI assistant to trouble shoot. I have deactivated my firewall, made sure that dB is allowed in both the antivirus and Firewall settings to connect to the internet. I have installed the newest version of dB. Checked and rechecked the settings. And no matter what I do, accurate rip will not activate. The CD drive is configured with accurate rip. Accurate rip is enabled. The metadata is retrieved for all albums, but each one says not in accurate rip so I have to rip every track on every disc multiple times. I have switched Ultra Secure off, because it means another pass or 2 depending on settings which takes 4 times as long, so it is now set to Accurate rip only with 2 passes. It is double the time firstly, and secondly I don't REALLY know if the rip is ACCURATE which is the main point of having dB. The strange thing is I had one disc with one track that was a problem, so to try to get around it I switched to BURST. When I did that the track displayed 'Not in accurate rip". The burst didn't help, the track is corrupted and the rip result is worth deleting. But out of 15 discs yesterday until 2am, every one was "not in accurate rip". I have ripped 1000's of discs already with my drive and the same laptop and same internet connection, only real difference really is the recent Sequoia update from Mac. And indeed the meta data does work. I had one local disc yesterday that the metadata didn't pick up, so I got the Discogs URL for it and manually pasted it in and it was all there. Tomorrow I have 50 discs arriving, and would like to ensure that Accurate rip is working before I rip them to library. As we all know, ripping takes a lot of time, if you do not have accurate rip to get by with one pass it takes so much longer, who knows if it is really accurate, and if there are problem discs that need re-ripping of frames it is painful. Please see screen shots attached, and PLEASE someone help!

      I have again deleted the dB application, and Perfect Tunes, emptied the trash and reinstalled them. Somehow there must be files left over somewhere because when I opened the application now it was on exactly the same settings as I previously had set. Also, when I go to the Accurate Rip box settings the program / Window says that "Accurate Rip is un-configured", what does that mean? And how do I configure it please?

        Okay, connected the drive, put a disc in and now it says accurate rip is configured. But it's still the same.

            Security Software is Intego, and dB has been set within the program for all allowances to connect to the internet, also in Mac OS / Firewall. And yes, Perfect Tunes is working with Accurate Rip. I have had Intego even before dB, and it has always been okay.

              Thanks for all the details, problem is being investigated.

              Please look at tags of your Men at Work - Cargo rip, post values of AccurateRipDiscID tag present in your files, so I can compare against my CD.

                Thank you, happy to do so. Sorry for my ignorance but where do I find it in my files? I have set the ripping program to display results but not to save to the album file. Otherwise, i can re-rip it (overwrite) and post those results. Attached is a screenshot of the Perfect Tunes Tags on that rip. Probably the wrong one that you need. Please explain where I can find the file you need. Thank you.

                        Good to hear that it's gone, perhaps it was a momentary AccurateRip communication issue after all.
                        By AccurateRipDiscID tags I mean:

                        I'd specifically like to know what it says on your previous rip where it claimed disc-not-present-in-AccurateRip.
                        If you no longer have this exact rip, post tags from any other rip where it claimed disc-not-present.
