se_28000006_mac-arm.dmg install on Mac Arm Sonoma 14.1

(1/2) > >>

JimGrohn:
When I try to start SlickEdit, OSX reports, "SlickEditPro2023 can’t be opened because Apple cannot check it for malicious software.  This software needs to be updated.  Contact the developer for more information."

Clark:
The dmg is not notorized. The applications is code signed though.
 
Go to System Settings>Privacy & Security

Scroll down to Security. Set "Allow applications downloaded from" to "App Store and identified developers".

Below this setting you should see a message like this:
      "SlickEditPro2023" was blocked from use because it is not from an identifier developer.
Click "Open Anyway"

JimGrohn:
Yes, that worked.   Thanks.

So I hit this myself today. I'm starting work at a new place, and they have a policy set to not allow unidentified developers. Unlikely to change it.  Anything i can do to work around it?

Clark:
This might work:

Try the following:

   * Uninstall SlickEdit

   * Remove the quarantine attribute

         xattr -d com.apple.quarantine se_28000200_mac-arm.dmg

    * Install again with modified installer

     * Double click on application folder to run

SlickEdit installer is code signed and is identified. Code signing certificate was purchased from Apple. Not sure why Apple provides very poor messages.
