Downloading

Your download has started. Now the three steps macOS will ask for.

The installer isn’t signed by Apple, so macOS blocks it the first time. Nothing is broken and nothing is dangerous — it’s Gatekeeper doing its job.

TimeTracker.pkg 571 KB Download again

  1. Open the file and let macOS block it

    Go to Downloads and double-click TimeTracker.pkg. A warning appears saying Apple could not verify the file. Click OK. This step looks pointless, but it’s what unlocks the button in step 2.

    ⚠

    Apple could not verify “TimeTracker.pkg” is free of malware.

    This software may harm your Mac or compromise your privacy.

    Move to Trash
    Done
    The block on the first try. This is what unlocks the next step.

  2. System Settings → Privacy & Security

    Scroll to the bottom. There will be a line saying TimeTracker.pkg was blocked, with an Open Anyway button next to it. It only exists after step 1 — before that, there’s nothing there to find.

    “TimeTracker.pkg” was blocked to protect your Mac.
    Open Anyway
    System Settings → Privacy & Security, at the very bottom.

  3. Confirm and enter your password

    Click Open Anyway, then Open in the dialog that follows, and type your Mac password. The installer runs normally from there.

    System Settings wants to make changes.

    Your Mac password — the same one that unlocks the screen.

  4. Quit DaVinci Resolve before installing

    It only looks for plugins on launch. If it’s open, quit it, install, and open it again.

Why this happens

Signing an app with Apple costs US$ 99 a year. Time Tracker is free and sells nothing, so charging you to cover that bill made no sense. The cost is this one-time block — once, and never again.

If you want to verify the file is mine

Open Terminal and run shasum -a 256 followed by the file. The result must match this:
