How to open a blocked app

  1. Open System Preferences.
  2. Go to Security & Privacy and select the General tab.
  3. If you've been blocked from opening an app within the past hour, this page will give you the option to override this by clicking the temporary button 'Open Anyway'.
  4. You'll be asked one more time if you're sure, but clicking Open will run the app.

How to 'Allow Apps from Anywhere'

But there is a third, hidden option: 'Allow apps from anywhere'. This used to be an option in earlier versions of macOS, but disappeared when macOS Sierra arrived. However you can get the Anywhere option back.

We will say right away that we don't recommend this setting, which puts you at risk of installing malware under the guise of legitimate software. But if you are determined on this course, it's possible to make that option reappear with a line of code in Terminal.

Open Terminal and enter the following code to get your Anywhere option:

sudo spctl --master-disable

Now press Return, and you will be asked to enter your password. Once that's done, open System Preferences (if it's already open, you'll need to quit it and restart to see the new options) and go to the Security & Privacy section.

How to remove the 'Anywhere' option

If you share your Mac with someone else it might be wise to get rid of the Anywhere option. To hide it again, you'll need to go to Terminal again, and this time type:

sudo spctl --master-enable

  • User name;
  • the right side of the top pane displays icons (left to right): Issue Sorting, Filter, Search, Update and Settings;
  • list of Issues;
  • the left part of the bottom pane shows the number of tasks displayed (Show) and hidden by the filter (Hidden);
  • the time of the last synchronization is displayed on the right of the lower pane.

On the left side of the top pane you will see the User Name. Clicking on it will bring you to the Jira Personal Profile page.

Use the Issue Sorting feature to organize tasks and make it easier to find the task in the list.

With Issue Sorting, you can sort the tasks by the selected criterion, and also organize the tasks in the list.

The call to the "Sort" function is also available when the timer is active for another task and does not affect the time logging process.

To open a window, click the Sort button. 

In Sort by, you must select a task sorting option in the list. 

The following task sorting options are available:

The following task sorting options are available:

  • Default - the list of tasks in the original form, sorting by priority of tasks
  • Name - sorting by task name. The list is sorted alphabetically according to Directions.
  • Priority - sort by priority of tasks
  • Rank - sort by task order in the column of the board Kanban in Jira
  • Project - sorting by project name. The list is sorted alphabetically according to Directions.
  • Updated -  sorting by update date. When you select Updated sorting, all tasks that have recently been updated will be at the top of the list.
  • Created - sort by date created. When you select Created sorting, all new tasks will be at the top of the list.

  • DESC - Sorting Results by Descending

To apply Sorting, select the required Sort by and Directions fields, and then click Apply.
To reset the Sorting, click the Reset button.

To hide Sorting, click again on the sorting icon in the top pane of the application.

After Sorting is applied, the bottom pane of the application will show the number of tasks displayed and hidden by the filter.

The Filter and Sort functions are related. If you have previously applied the Filter function to the task list, then by using the Sort function, you will sort the task list that was previously selected by the Filter.

If there are several tasks in the Task List that have been added to Favorites, then after you apply the sorting to the entire Task List, the Favorites tasks and the rest of the tasks in the list will be sorted independently according to the sorting type selected.

To make it easier to find the desired task in the list, use the task filter.

With the Task Filter, you can select tasks for one or more projects (Projects field),  status (Statuses), task priority (Priorities), and other parameters, or by applying combinations of these filter criteria.

The Task Filter is also available when the timer is active for another task and does not affect the time logging process.

To open a window, press the Filter button.  

The filter allows you to select displayed tasks by the following criteria:

  • Project — the list of the projects names with issues assigned to you.
  • Tracker — the list of trackers.
  • Status — the list of statuses.
  • Priority — the list of priorities.
  • Version — the list of versions.

To apply the filter, select the required field combination, and then click Apply.
To reset the filter, click the Reset button.

Choosing different parameters and their combinations will help you to find the desired tasks faster. For example, using the Statuses field you can select all New Tasks and then filter «important» in the Priorities field.

After applying the filter to the specified parameters, the application filters the tasks in the desired order. This way you can concentrate on new important tasks.

Also, after applying the filter in the bottom pane of the application will be shown the number of tasks displayed and hidden by the filter. To reset the filter, click on the Recycle Bin icon (Reset filter) in the bottom pane of the app.

Note

The selection of fields is interrelated. When selecting a specific Project, other fields will display all options, but only those that have tasks of the selected project will be active. This scheme works with all filter fields.

You can also open the Filters panel,  by using the CMD+F/Ctrl+F key combination.

The search allows you to find the desired task by a word or word combination and takes place by the main fields of the tasks displayed in RMClient.

The exception is the time spent on the task. The Search function call is also available when the timer is active for another task and does not affect the time logging process.

To call the Search function, click the Search button, and then a query box appears. 

After entering the first character in the Search box, the matching characters in the fields:  ID Tasks in Jira, Task Name, Project, and Description are searched. As a result of the search, the tasks are filtered out. The tasks that fit the search criteria will be displayed in the list, and the rest of the tasks will be hidden.

If the search function was started when the Task has an active timer, this task will remain fixed at the top of the list, the search results will be shown below. 

The bottom pane of the application will show the number of displayed and hidden tasks. To reset the filter, click on the Recycle Bin icon (Reset filter) in the bottom pane of the app.

If there is no match with the search criterion on the screen, the Not found message appears. 

In order to reset the search results, you must delete the entered criterion (word or word combination).

To close the search window, click the Close icon on the right side of the field.

You can also call the Search function,  using the CMD+S/Ctrl+S key combination

This button allows you to immediately synchronize the client with your Redmine server to update the task list.

If you are unable to solve the problem, you can turn on logging in the client settings by checking the «Log» box.

Now, all of your activities will be written to a text file, which can be found in «My Documents» folder — «RMClient».

You can send us the log to support@rmclient.org, and we will help you to resolve the problem.

If the time is not written to the current task, a dialog box with time management options will be displayed.

The user should choose the appropriate option from the following:
