Issue

mstream cannot be started on macos and reports this error “mStream Server” can’t be opened because Apple cannot check it for malicious software.

I think this is due to Apples new policy that all app must be code-signed and notarized:

Currently, mStream for OSX is code-signed but not notarized. While this hasn't been a problem in the past, Apple has made it mandatory to notarize apps now.

To make things worse, my old macbook has been having issues and needs to be repaired. This might take a while to get around too.

To get around this, you can install mStream through the CLI. Let me know if you have any questions on how to do this.

After using buttons ctrl+click, then we can see a new popup window which includes the button to open mstream ;-)
