[TVARC] Apple Mac OS - "App Cannot Be Opened Because Developer Cannot Be Verified

[Anthony Hackenberg]

Hi Bob/KMPIB,

Assuming you’re getting this error message “wsjtx.app cannot be opened because the developer cannot be verified’ on an Apple computer running Mac OS, these articles should help you resolve the problem:

Bob, please note the the Apple Support fix (see above) is the better one because the other one (from Lifewire.com <http://lifewire.com/>) will only work on older versions of Apple Mac OS.

Hope you get wsjtx.app installed and working soon so you can enjoy it.

73,

P.S. Tip for the future - you could have asked “Dr. Google” (done an internet search on the error message you are getting and that would have lead you to the same articles that I listed above.
