Final Draft 11

I just upgraded to OS Ventura 13.2.1, and now I get the message that "Final Draft 11 is damaged and can't be opened" and I have to "move it the the bin". That reeeeally sucks as I am in the middle of a major feature film production.

Anybody else have this problem - and a solution?? Thanks!

Cannot Run Data Recovery Software on Ventura We are trying to retrieve some mission critical work from an external hard drive. Usually this is a fairly simple process. Unfortunately, I'm having issues running any of my small business' data recovery software on Ventura on an M1 Pro MacBook Pro. Although we have to keep so many copies and redundancies, we have to occasionally run data recovery software on a drive that may be in the process of failure or to recover a mission critical file on an legacy drive. We currently use Disk Drill, Data Rescue, and ReciverIt. All of them are up to date and optimized for Ventura. Yet we have not been able to launch any of these apps. What we get is an error message that "This application is damaged and cannot be opened. You should move it to the Trash." Since this is the first time we've had to recover a file since Ventura came out, we're stumped. We've tried multiple fixes (since the applications are not broken) and updated all permissions and settings in Ventura. Has anyone else had this issue with recovery software?

Ventura 13.3.1 wrecks Final Cut Pro — any hope out there? I just updated to Ventura 13.3.1 and... Final Cut Pro now won't open. FCP gets stuck "validating" Audio Units. So I uninstall the Ads and... FCP just finds another AU to get stuck on. Note: I was using FCP earlier today without incident. Note: The "offending" AUs have been working just fine for months if not years. And the most awful part: I remove "everything" associated with an "offending AU" and... FCP still thinks it's "there"! Delete preferences. Restart. Do anything and everything you can think of and... FCP is stuck "validating" something that's just not there. This update has wrecked my work as I can't even get to FCP projects I started a few hours ago. I trust Apple is updating to provide us with better security. I wish Apple would do its homework re. unintended consequences before issuing the update. This really, really sucks.

There is an update, Final Draft 12 which may be required. I would ask Final Draft.
