Hi guys,
There doesn't seem to be a lot of chat about this message on the Forum, so I'm posting a workaround for the issue.
In my case I got the message "Unapproved caller. SecurityAgent may only be invoked by Apple software" when trying to boot from my CC Clone on the HDD in the optibay.
I Googled the message and found a range of answers, including hardware fixes. But I was pretty sure, this wasn't a hardware problem.
While this may not work for anyone with a single boot drive, it should work for anyone with a bootable backup.
All I did was have CCC do a new clone, deleting all files not in original. Except I unticked the "var" folder.
Now my MBP boots from the second HDD, with no issues.
It's still a head scratcher, though.....as both my MBP & Mini will happily boot from the CCC on the external connected to the Mini.
