'The application "DiskImageMounter.app" can't be opened.' - Sierra 10.12.2
I have always been able to look into the Time Machine backups on my Time Capsules. I just upgraded my first system to Sierra (10.12.2) from El Capitan (10.11.6). Now when I try to open the sparse bundles on the Time Capsule I get 'The application "DiskImageMounter.app" can't be opened.' with a code of -35.
I find the same sparse bundles on the Time Capsules do still open OK from El Capitan, and I am still able to open sparse bundles on directly connected hard drives in Sierra.
I verified all this on two Macs using virgin installs of both versions of the OS.
Is something broken? I got some pushback from Apple Support about the only supported way to interact with the backup files is through the Enter Time Machine option in Time Machine. Opening the files via Finder has been something that has worked for many years. I am wondering if they either accidentally, or perhaps intentionally disabled the ability to open those files - he talked about people doing it causing a lot of trouble.
