CarbonComponentScannerXPC with intel processor type

So, it's been 3 years since a question was asked about "CarbonComponentScannerXPC with intel processor type" CarbonComponentScannerXPC - Apple Community

and the response was that we shouldn't worry it should be changed soon, it's probably not going to be fixed now or anytime soon, without proper attention and feedback!

I would hate to see a Computer that I am carefully filtering to use software under Apple Silicon with Intel processes on it, I really ask Apple to respond to this for us it is important. Thank you!


MacBook Air 13″, macOS 13.6

I can not Directly address your concern


Though, running 1 M1, 2 M2 and 1 M3 computers all with Sonoma 14.4 ( latest version of macOS )


The " CarbonCompenentScannerXPC " apple process is showing up in Activity Monitor >> View ALL Processes


Upon further examination of this process from Activity Monitor


The Open and Used files associated with this Apple Process are as per below


So I am not sure where or If there is an issue at all


Yes, I do have a few Intel Based Third Party Applications installed and some of them do interface with Apple's Rosetta2

Rosetta 2 is only available on Apple Computer with the Silicon M1 / M2 / M3 Computers. 


There are three categories / types of software that can run on the Operations System.


Only Intel Binary Code. This software will invoke Rosetta 2 to translate the Intel binaries so the operating system can understand and execute the Application. The Applications must be 64 Bit to function on Big Sur, Monterey and Ventura / Sonoma


Universal Binary Software.  It contains Both Intel and M1/ M2 / M3 ARMs binary code and refer to (  Universal 2 ) When the user installs a 64 bit Application that contains Both Intel and M1 / M2/ M3  ARMs binaries - depending on factors, the Operating System may or may not invoke Rosetta 2.


Apple Silicon “ Checking in System Information >> Applications  >> as of now, only see One Application classified as Apple Silicon and that is “ Rosetta 2 Updater “.


That would make perfect sense since. It is specifically designed to operate only on Apple Silicon M1 / M2 / M3 ARMs based computers
