How to Fix the macOS Security Warning for Find my Font
The message 'Apple could not verify "Find my Font" is free of malware' is a standard alert from macOS Gatekeeper. It typically appears for apps downloaded outside the official Mac App Store that haven't been "notarized" or registered with Apple.
This warning does not mean the app is harmful; it simply means Apple has not scanned this specific version of the software for malicious content. Find my Font is safe to use — follow the steps below to allow it.
How to Open the App
First, click Done or Cancel to dismiss the warning. Then follow these steps:
- Open System Settings and
- Navigate to Privacy & Security
- Scroll down to the Security section. You should see a note about "Find my Font" being blocked.
Click Open Anyway.
- Enter your administrator password if prompted, then click Open again to confirm.
That's all there is to it. Find my Font will now open normally, and macOS won't ask for confirmation again.
