    Hi,

    I just downloaded Mountain Lion and having annoying experience.

    When I download an app online, not from app store, system doesn't allow me to install it.

    How can I avoid that?

    Mountain Lion: About Gatekeeper

    To always allow installation of non-MAS apps:
    1. Go to  > System Preferences… > Security & Privacy > General
    2. Change "Allow applications downloaded from:" to "Mac App Store and identified developers" or "Anywhere"

    Thank you very much! I just thought that Apple disabled it forever. :)

    Hopefully that won't happen for a while.
