MAC OSX El Capitan - “icCube” is damaged


After downloading icCube I get the following message: “icCube” is damaged and can’t be opened. You should move it to the Trash

enter image description here


Solution

  • OSX doesn't allow to run downloaded application by default, you've to

    a) Allow just icCube application, open the application with Ctrl+Click and select open in the menu (doc). The app will be saved as an exception in your security settings.

    or a bit more brutal

    b) Change your global settings in Security & Privacy to 'Anywhere' doc (bottom)

    enter image description here

    If you have MacOS High Sierra, the Security & Privacy window won't show the same default settings. In order to activate the "Allow apps downloaded from: Anywhere", just write on your Terminal:

    sudo spctl --master-disable
    

    and the option will be available again.
