I can not listen to a cd on my mac with new Sequoia OS

In Disk Utility>View, select Show all Devices, highlight the top left entry.

Run Disk First Aid on all items in the left panel, from top down.

Are you running any VPN, Anti-Virus, or Cleaning apps?

We need to see what all is running, a report from this will not display any personal info...

I recently had to download the new OS Sequoia. I listen to audio cd's on my iMac. I tried to listen to one recently after downloading and this is the error I get: "Access to the source volume was denied. Check the System settings for removable volume access."

I have changed the settings to all possibilities and get the same error message.

I like listening to audio books while working on my computer and I still would like to.

Any help??

Is this a M-series iMac or an Intel iMac...?
