I am using Rekordbox DJ on a macbook pro, and every single frickin' time I open the app, I get the message Do you want the application “rekordbox.app” to accept incoming network connections?.
I click allow each time but it still keeps popping up. I've tried removing it and re-adding it to my allow incoming connections apps in the firewall preferences but to no avail.
I have also tried clicking deny but that doesn't help either. It just keeps popping up every time I open Rekordbox.
Help? :)

If I disable the Firewall, I do not get the prompt saying
"Do you want the application “PSvLinkSysMgr.app” to accept incoming network connections?"
However, disabling my computer's firewall just to prevent this one pop up in this one application is not an acceptable solution. Frankly, encouraging users to turn off a major security feature is somewhat irresponsible. Please advise of how to actually fix the problem. Thanks.
@smilinggoat > It was more a test to ensure that the players were communicating properly, but thanks for the security briefing.
Did you follow the instructions above regarding adding the four applications to the firewall connections, or did you ONLY configure it for the rekordbox app?
Sorry, I wasn't trying to be rude! Was just a little surprised is all.
While I don't see the specific four applications listed in the comments above, I have added the following Applications to the Firewall exceptions:
rekordbox 5/rekordbox/Contents/MacOS/
PSvLinkSysMgr
PSvNFSd
rbinit
rekordbox
I am still getting the firewall warning. Thank you for your time in providing support!
Sorry, I scrolled quick and thought the support article was linked; these are the 4 you want to allow through:
edb_streamd
psvnfsd
psvlinksysmgr
rekordbox
I added all of the above to the firewall exceptions and it's still occurring =\
Do you have any file sharing or other server hosts / tasks running?
Is there a solution yet? I'm having the same problem. Tried everything documented. System: MacOS High Sierra, Rekordbox 5.3.0, all 4 item of the screenshot above allowed (additionally rekordbox.app). No files haring running and no additional hosts that I know of.
Does it work with the firewall disabled?
Thanks for asking. Yes it does.
Putting my post here as i am experiencing the same issue and adding to the growing frustration amongst users. I am running OSX Yosemite 10.10.5 on rekordbox v4.5.0
I have;
It is worth noting that when I have no rekordbox related apps (or core programs) added to firewall, after running (and accepting the Allow dialogue) rekordbox 'psvlinksysmgr.app' is added to the firewall list as allowed.
And surprise... if you select 'Deny' - the same aforementioned app will be added to the firewall list as denied. But you will still be asked next time!
Rekordbox is clearly writing permissions to the Apple firewall, but is clearly not reading them. THIS IS PIONEERS ISSUE.
I have seen this in other apps that do not manage firewall settings correctly.
Please can you investigate properly and resolve this because it is incredibly frustrating.
For those who couldn't find the right solution:
I solved rekordbox continuous requests by simply deleting everithing about it on MacOS firewall list.
After that I run the program and never asked again about incoming connections.
When I checked the firewall after that I found just one new entry automatically added (PSvLinkSysMgr)
Try it!
