Filezilla 3.7.3 Not Compatible with Mac OS X 10.9 Mavericks

Reported by: snwboard438 Owned by: PJ Smith

Description

I tried installing version 3.7.3 of Filezilla on my MacBook Pro (w/ OS X 10.9 installed) and got this message:

"Filezilla cannot be installed because it from an unidentified developer."

I downloaded the file from download.cnet.com.

Is this something that can be easily fixed? I use Filezilla all the time and it would be a shame to not be able to use it on my new machine for this reason.

I am currently running FileZilla on MacOS X 10.9 "Mavericks" with no issues.

This message is usually prompted by "Gatekeeper", which is Apple's "malware checker". You can read more about the technology here: http://support.apple.com/kb/HT5290?viewlocale=en_US&locale=en_US

I just posted a possible solution to this in the forums, located at this link:

I hope that this fixes your issue. Good luck.

Firezilla works great on OSX 10.9 - you need to select "Anywhere" from the "Allow apps downloaded from:" section in the "Security & Privacy" portion of System Preferences. This was the case prior to Mavericks, btw.
