How to "allow" 3rd party apps in Ventura 13.0?

The first thing you need to know is that bluestacks won't work on any macOS above high Sierra, they are yet to release it still. To display the allow button you're looking for you'd need to disable the system integrity protection which you can do in recovery mode using the terminal prompt "csrutil disable". Even then, you'll get the error that you won't be able to install the helper just because the software doesn't support Ventura or Monterey! Hope that helps

I agree, this is horrible! I need to install the Greatdy Computer Audio Device Driver and it won't allow me! Come on, Apple, I paid $4000+ for this new Mac Studio and you aren't allowing me to install trusted (by me) software on my own device? I own this computer, and I want to install this software, it's that simple. And you are blocking me? Are we in lawsuit territory yet?

Hi, in my own situation, I download an app called Greatdy Computer Audio Device. The app runs fine. However, there is a button on it that says "click to install driver". When I click it is where I get the error message. So it isn't the app that has the issue, it's with the Mac OS not allowing the app too install a driver or plugin.

All I want to do is install something that lets me record system sound, say a video conference or sound effects from a movie, etc.

You should start your own question for your own situation.

From those screenshots, I can assure you the problem is with the app. That is amateurish, at best. I recommend you find some other app.

It really would not surprise me if Apple stopped allowing unsigned & unverified apps to be installed at some point. I'm actually surprised it hasn't already happened.

Apple actually announced such a policy a few years ago. It they never did it.

I have seen a few situations where unsigned binaries that I build myself don’t work on Apple Silicon. But apparently there are too many ways around that. Malware is not affected.

I am also interested in any tips with this. I also run Nox Player and was all fine with Monterey. Once I upgraded to Ventura, I no longer see option to allow extensions, just as the original poster noted with Bluestacks. Hope it is fixed soon.

I mean yea sure I guess I wanna bet, you showed me a screenshot of Big Sur, I said it doesn't work on Monterey and Ventura so what's your point? I also managed to install Nox, but after seeing its reviews on trust pilot and the fact that better crew link doesn't work with it I decided that it doesn't replace bluestacks for me

if however you have figured out how to install bluestacks on Ventura ill take it, I have no idea how you'd do that since the official bluestack reddit/website says that it's not available for these systems

let me know!

edit, I said high Sierra in the previous post but it's in fact just anything up to Monterey, my bad

Fine, but your answer still doesn't acknowledge the fact that it appears Apple removed the option from previous versions to click "install all". Only Apple and "verified apps".

I was unable to do that under 13.0

Hi,

I have similar issue with Bluestack.

I just can't find the Allow button anywhere.

Could anyone have any solution??

Thank you

This revealed the "Anywhere" radio button. Tried it for Bluestacks and Nox Player but no luck. Will keep digging for a solution. Thanks for the tip though.

Wanna bet.

Works just fine on Big Sur and Ventura. I have it running on 2 Macbook Pro's.

Once I allowed the 3rd party application the install completed. I also have NOX running on Ventura.

I assumed no one blindly turns off these protocols without checking what can happen but it’s good you took a moment to write it out!
