Wireless setup assistant cannot open from unidentified developer

Asked By Arianna R Johnson 0 points N/A Posted on - 07/31/2014

Hi there,

I have this error when I want to install my printer driver. The printer is Cannon MP560 and I have the driver for MAC and still. Also I have this error with the latest driver and I don’t know what to do anymore. Can anyone help me please to fix this one ?

 

Thanks !

 

 

“Wireless Setup Assistant” can’t be opened because it is from an unidentified developer.

Your security preferences allow installation of only apps from the Mac App Store and identified developers.

“Wireless Setup Assistant” is on the disk image

“CannoneAPChkTool_osx110en.dmg”. Firefox downloaded this disk image today at 11:14 AM.

OK

Arianna, 

 

This is a security feature of the system.

 

The message prompted will show up every time you try to install a device with a driver not signed by Apple.

 

What you can do is to override this feature to be able to install the device, but this will be your choice.

 

Do this:

 

 

 

Go to the Apple Menu, System Preferences, choose  Security&Privacy

 

If prompted, enter your password. Choose and click Anywhere as in the image below.

 

                                                      Screenshot-of-the Menu-Settings

You can turn it back after installing your device.

Hope this helps

Riley
