I can’t run Viafirma Java Desktop on Mac

If you have problems to run Viafirma Java Desktop on Mac, surely it will be because of some security changes in Sierra, High Sierra and Mojave versions. If we try to open an app from an identified developer that is not registered with Apple, a warning dialog box like the following will appear:

We explain you how to solve this problem step by step

Go to “System Preferences > Security & Privacy” and in the “General” tab click on the “Open Anyway” option as shown in the image:

You will have to perform these steps every time you run the application. So if you are going to use Viafirma regularly, you have another option:

Go to “Applications”, open “Terminal” and type and execute the command:

sudo spctl --master-disableThis step will cause a permanent option to appear under “System Preferences > Security & Privacy” as shown below:

This as you can imagine is not safe for the use of other applications, as it will allow the download of apps installed from anywhere. But that’s your responsibility 😉.

To return to the original state, just run in the Terminal the opposite:

sudo spctl --master-enable
