Hello Miriamnji,
Let's try this:
Go to Safari > Preferences > Location and if you want to allow the websites to access your location, then click on the box next to "When visiting other websites" and set this to Allow if not, select "Deny"
Or:
Go to System Preferences > Security and Privacy > Location Services and then press the lock. Sign in and uncheck Safari.
Let us know if this helps!
Cheers!
Hello Miriamnji,
Thank you for that information. To help us gather some more information, can you send us a screenshot of what you're seeing?
Cheers!
Check in System Preferences >> " Sharing " and what elements are Enabled. See below screen shot for reference
Hello Miriamnji,
Thank you. Everything is looking OK there, can you tell us specifically what you were doing when this pop up appeared? Can you walk us through the app that you were using, and provide a screenshot of what it says for that app? Knowing this information can help us determine what may be happening.
Thank you for your response but this doesn't seem to work. The apps don't appear under anything.
Thanks
Hello,
I get the pop up as soon as I access the account. From previous screen shots you can see what it says. Only thing used in Safari.
Thanks
Hello Miriamnji,
Sorry for the confusion. Which account are you trying to access when this happens. Is this when you first log in?
Please let us know.
Cheers!
This is for most accounts. When I log in pop up comes up wether to allow or not. See screenshot.
This worked. Thank you so much for taking the time to help me.

Hello Miriamnji,
It sounds like you're experiencing issues with apps requesting access on the Mac. We will be happy to provide some guidance.
This may be the apps asking for access that use accessibility. You can read more about this here:
Allow accessibility apps to access your Mac
There's also a link there that will help you change Privacy preferences which may help as well.
We hope this helps.
Cheers!
