graham_t Posted December 17, 2019 Posted December 17, 2019 I haven't used Focus Magic on the mac for some time, but when I tried to use it today on Affinity Photo it could not be opened because it said the develop could not be verified. Anyone else have this problem? Quote
firstdefence Posted December 17, 2019 Posted December 17, 2019 Under Preferences : Plugins you may have to check the box "Allow unknown plugins to be used" Will likely require a restart of Affinity Photo.

graham_t Posted December 17, 2019 Author Posted December 17, 2019 Thanks for the reply. Affinity was already set to "allow unknown plugin to be used". I suspect that the problem lies with Catalina, the latest Mac os system. I know that it has created problems for various apps. I've sent Focus Magic a query to see if they have encountered this problem. Quote

graham_t Posted December 17, 2019 Author Posted December 17, 2019 Thanks I'll see what Focus Magic have to say before doing anything with the Mac security. Quote
graham_t Posted December 19, 2019 Author Posted December 19, 2019 After talking to the developed it seems that because of Catalina's more robust Gatekeeper system I need to do a control/click on the plugin file icon to create an exception for the app. When I try to open the app in Affinity I just get an "are you sure you want to proceed notice" which I can just agree to.
