Re: Scroller and not apple's mouse

[Jack Brindle via Cocoa-dev]

What is the mouse, and is there any installed software involved that goes with 
the mouse?

Re: How to check signature and notarization?

[Jack Brindle via Cocoa-dev]

From the code sign man page:
codesign --display --verbose=4 Terminal.app

replace Terminal.app with your application name (be sure to unzip first). The 
information shown will tell you whether it is has a valid signature.
You might try it on a few other apps just to see what that looks like.

Be sure that the customer copies the app from wherever they unzip it to the 
Applications folder, or anyplace else. That will remove the quarantine on the 
app.

As for checking Notarization, I don’t remember how, but there is a way. You 
might explore the apps from Howard Oakley at his Eclectic Mac Light Company web 
page. He has some very good tools that should show the security info.
The URL: https://eclecticlight.co 

We distribute our app in zipped form (no dmg). It is in an installer app that 
the user unzips, then runs, usually at the same place where they unzipped the 
file. No problems with GateKeeper in over two years of Notarization so far.

Re: How to check signature and notarization?

[Marco S Hyman via Cocoa-dev]

I don’t know about zip file distribution, but I have both the app AND the dmg 
that I use for distribution notarized.  I create the DMG from a folder 
containing the notarized app and a link to /Applications then run codesign on 
the DMG and upload the result to Apple for notarization.   Once notarized I 
staple the ticket to the dmg.

How to check signature and notarization?

[Gabriel Zachmann via Cocoa-dev]

I am distributing my app using a simple zip file.
Now, I have a few users (only a few it seems) who get the error message
".. can't be opened because Apple cannot check it for malicious software"
when they try to run it.

I am pretty positive I did sign and notarize it before exporting the archive
(using "Developer ID").

Is there a way to check that the signature and notarization is proper?
Are there any other checks I can do to determine what is going wrong?


Best regards, Gabriel
