[Solved] 4.1.8 Not recognised by Apple/Mac Gatekeeper

[JohnB123]

I downloaded and installed Ver 4.1.8 On my iMac. The following message popped up:

“OpenOffice.app” cannot be opened because the developer cannot be verified. macOS cannot verify that this app is free from malware.

Please advise.
Thank you

This is the Apple Gatekeeper interfering with the install.
For a solution read Q05/A05 in the Mac FAQ

Thank you Rory. That solved the problem

Mac OS 11/AOO 4.1.8: I have the same problem at launch (“OpenOffice.app” cannot be opened because the developer cannot be verified. macOS cannot verify that this app is free from malware), but the solution posted here does not work.

Oops - Mac OS 10.15.7

I'm not a Mac user, so my advice is limited to what I know from the Forum. It might be good to try the suggested fix once again, in case you might have made some mistake.
