-A few rules and useful forum instructions
MAC says “'LMMS' cannot be opened because the developer cannot be verified.". I am not sure if this is a common issue but I looked around and did not see any of this issue. Thanks for reading! :? 8-)
Yes that is correct. LMMS is a freeware project, and as such we have never verified the program as a
Certified-Windows-licenced-program -That is extreme expensive, and only commercial software is licenced with windows.
A licence give you as a developer, a 'verifying-ID', that is recognized by your OS.
LMMS does not have that, and that is the reason for the pop-up.
But you have no reason to worry. LMMS from
https://lmms.io/download#mac is vira-free, and does not contain any malware!
Other sources are not under out control!
Your problem is not specific for MAC, but i do not know if the windows-solution exists on MAC. Apple is imo the most user-unfriendly tech-firm in existence, so Apple may block you from this solution:
First you need to log in as 'Administrator' -I dont know what that called in the MAC-world :(
Then run the installer
When the popup appears, scroll to the right and there should be a button
'install'
Then the blocking should be removed, and you can install without any more interference from the (rutten) Apple.
Let us know the outcome :)
