Pre-Requisites

  • Permissions to modify settings in MacOS

Why am I Seeing This?

Recent versions of MacOS (Catalina & newer) introduced the Gatekeeper security functionality, requiring software to be signed by Apple or a trusted (aka - paying) developer. If the signature isn’t on the list of trusted ones, it will stop the program from executing and display the message above.


Steps

  1. Open the System Settings panel.
  2. Navigate to Privacy & Security.
  3. Scroll down and observe the following message under the Security settings.
  4. Select Open Anyway to tell your Mac that you trust the application.
  5. You will now get another window appearing to verify you want to open Eden. Select Open Anyway.
  6. You will be prompted for your password to authorize the request. Enter the credentials of an account that has permission to modify settings and press OK.
  7. Eden will now open and any subsequent launches of the program will not prompt this.
