///Cant open the download as the developer is not rcognized.
What to do?
iMac 13.1 late 2012
intel Core i5
Also, I searched for yousendit or hightail, which is the newer version of the same thing at the app store but no joy?
What to do?
You can override Gatekeeper from the instructionshere by changing the default setting from "MAC app store and identified developers" to "Anywhere" but keep in mind you've just defeated a key OSX security system that protects you while attempting to install "Hightail" now (and other unidentified apps in the future unless you reset Gatekeeper back to "MAC app store and identified developers".)
I can only assume you trust the developer and "Hightail" enough to take this risk.
DISCLAIMER: Neither I or ASC can be responsible for the consequences if you choose to defeat Gatekeeper
BlackDogAudio,
Everything was working fine, but now its getting way too big times for file transfer then going into suspended limbo.
Im on the Hightail forems and Im trying their sugestions, like empty its program trash, etc.
Its my wifes Mac as she and her team use that program.
What other program does Mac apps have that you could recommend?
I know she doesnt like Dropbox but will us it in an emergency.
Thanks for the over ride solution.
Hopefully we wont have to resort to it.
Could I do as you suggest, then download the new stuff, then turn the safety feature back on?
cheers

I've only ever used Dropbox and even then, only from Windows PCs. I do recall others here at ASC have used Dropbox, Google Drive (with issues as I recall) and possibly Microsoft's OneDrive with OSX but you'd probably want to search through the ASC forum for more specifics on success or failure. (I've used iCloud Drive without issues but not with large file transfers nor a variety of file types to provide any solid feedback.)
Yes, you can disable Gatekeeper temporarily setting it to Anywhere long enough to launch the Hightail installer and complete the installation. Just make sure you download their software installer package from the developer's website and afterwards, reverse Gatekeeper back to the default setting "MAC app store and identified developers". Keep in mind this is all at your own risk as Apple has not signed off on their application.
Thanks blackdogaudio,
we have used the program for 7 years so we have faith.
upgrading the Macs and OS brings problems.
Were getting there with thanks to people like you.
Onward!
You're very welcome...I hope it works with safe results! Let us know what happens good or otherwise for the benefit of others.
No action taken except printed up the thread for the great download operation.
Woke up this morning and both computers working normally on hightail, so problem solved.
It must have been my witch doctor chanting.
Hopefully not "to be cont".
Good deal!
cant open hightail upgrade as its not recognised.
