Mac Video Converter

[AJR]

Mac Experts,

Have bought and downloaded the software
In trying to open it , have the following message:

“iFunia Video Converter” can’t be opened because it is from an unidentified developer.

Anyone has any insights?

Thanks,

AJ

Not at my Mac so I can't give you step by step, but if you look in Settings you should find it (probably under Security). If I get time I will Google for specific steps and post here.

EDIT: Found an image that shows what I am talking about.

And if you haven't paid for that piece of spammer ware - don't - ask advice for what you need for what you're trying to do.

“iFunia Video Converter” can’t be opened because it is from an unidentified developer.

That alone would be cause for concern in my book. It means that the developer hasn't registered with Apple, and as such, is an unknown. Not that it's necessary for every developer to have Apple's blessing, but it does give you a certain degree of quality assurance (i.e. malware/spyware/virus free).

I would strongly recommend against defeating your Mac's protection mechanisms specifically for this software, particularly when there are an abundance of worthy alternatives that have been vetted by Apple.

Anyone has any insights?

Steer clear of these Chinese outfits. Their products are typically re-branded, generic code that is promoted via spam and link-baiting. Personally, I wouldn't trust my credit card number to any one of them.
