Re: UMS is damaged and cant be opened
endymion you genius!
sudo xattr -cr /Applications/Universal\ Media\ Server.app worked!
Thank you very much. And it sees PS4 ok....
I am now back to my original problem which led me to delete and reinstall UMS......My files are on an external drive. So when selecting folders to share within UMS, I navigate --HD/volumes/....
But once selected volumes there is nothing visible and the window seems distorted. Please see the attache screenshot. Does yours appear like this? So I cant any deeper than selcting my volume 'Backupemp'. Before Monterey I could navigate further into the volume.
MAny thnanks for your help...![Very Happy :D](./images/smilies/icon_e_biggrin.gif)

Re: UMS is damaged and cant be opened
I suggested setting the attributes early on, and from what I understood you claimed to have already tried it and that it didn't work.beard runner wrote: ↑Tue Nov 02, 2021 3:57 pm sudo xattr -cr /Applications/Universal\ Media\ Server.app worked!
Re: UMS is damaged and cant be opened
When I go to my Volumes folder, a security alert appears.
I hit OK and after some spinup delay my external drives appeared.
If you don't see that, you may have previously accidentally clicked Don't Allow.
You can go to System Preferences --> Security & Privacy --> Privacy --> Files and Folders
Scroll to find Universal Media Server and if it displays Removable Volumes unchecked. Check it.

Re: UMS is damaged and cant be opened
There has been some really great help in this topic, thanks everyone involved!
I just wanted to add that Apple has a help page about this which includes a Monterey section, here's what they say:
https://support.apple.com/en-gb/guide/m ... h40616/mac
Hopefully Apple will make better decisions around supporting open source apps in the future. I don't see any indication of that but I can only be hopeful.

This allowed me to run 11.11.11.1-pre 10.15 on High Sierra (please don't judge).endymion wrote: ↑Tue Nov 02, 2021 11:40 am Also, if you're still seeing notes that the app is damaged, try opening the terminal and typing:
sudo xattr -cr /Applications/Universal\ Media\ Server.app
or
sudo xattr -cr (and then drag the app into the terminal window to complete the path if stored elsewhere)
Then enter your password when asked and try opening the app again.
Thank you!
