Hi there,

I moved my cracked SWAM Modelling VSTs and now Ableton Live won't scan them anymore. It says "cannot be opened because Apple cannot search for malware in it"
I moved the VSTs back, but now the problem persists.
Do you have an idea how to fix this? I reinstalled everything and codesigned again, but the VSTs stay like this. Only the standalone I could open by rightclicking and "open". But I don't know how to apply this "trick" to the VSTs.

Please help!
All the best

 

when I codesign I type this:

sudo xattr -cr

sudo xattr -r -d com.apple.quarantine

sudo codesign --force --deep --sign -

and then I get this:

Not enough arguments for option -c. Expected at least 1 but got 0


usage: xattr [-l] [-r] [-s] [-v] [-x] file [file ...]

xattr -p [-l] [-r] [-s] [-v] [-x] attr_name file [file ...]

xattr -w [-r] [-s] [-x] attr_name attr_value file [file ...]

xattr -d [-r] [-s] attr_name file [file ...]

xattr -c [-r] [-s] file [file ...]


The first form lists the names of all xattrs on the given file(s).

The second form (-p) prints the value of the xattr attr_name.

The third form (-w) sets the value of the xattr attr_name to the string attr_value.

The fourth form (-d) deletes the xattr attr_name.

The fifth form (-c) deletes (clears) all xattrs.


options:

-h: print this help

-l: print long format (attr_name: attr_value and hex output has offsets and

ascii representation)

-r: act recursively

-s: act on the symbolic link itself rather than what the link points to

-v: also print filename (automatic with -r and with multiple files)

-x: attr_value is represented as a hex string for input and output

Does that mean, the codesign code is the problem?

 

open terminal. type this: sudo codesign --force --deep --sign - and then drag the file you are codesigning onto your terminal. It will paste the file name and location at the end of your command.

 

Thanks! But unfortunately I get this:

error: The specified item could not be found in the keychain.
