The App's authorization has been revoked???

[BrianJ844]

So I am in the process of setting up my new MacBook. My old one was running El Cap. I upgraded it to Mojave right out of the box. Most everything is installing okay but Adobe Photoshop CS 5.1 is telling me that the:
---
"Install" can't be opened. You should eject the disk image.
---

When clicking the question mark, the macOS User Guide says:
---
The app's authorization has been revoked.
There may be a problem with this app. Although the app was signed by an identified developer, the certificate for the app has been revoked, and it cannot be opened.
---

What gives? Has anyone encountered any software that gives a message like that and what can be done?

Thanks,
Brian

This may be a possible solution.

I dragged the 'install' exec. into an open terminal window and that seemed to work? (open the 'Adobe CS5 Design premium installer', then right click the 'install' folder and click 'show package contents in the drop down that pops up. then double click the 'contents' folder, then double click the 'MacOS' folder. The 'Install' exec. file is the one i dragged into an open terminal window) hope this makes sense. (sorry I'm terribly inept at explaining technical computer things)

Yep, Banglazed, that worked. I tried several things from around the internet before posting here, including opening that file directly. However, I didn't drag it directly into terminal and running it there. Thank you for the help!

I am now getting "Photoshop quit unexpectedly" error when I close Photoshop CS5. I found the link below for this but haven't tried it yet. I will probably research a bit more and try to tackle this tomorrow evening.

If anyone has any experience with this little gem of an error, please let me know. Though if the quit unexpectedly when closing the program error is all I have to deal with, I'll take it.

This may be a possible solution as well.

Sorry, been a rough week and just got to looking at this. So I tried the instructions on here: http://capitalmacservice.com/possible-fix-for-mac-adobe-illustrator-cs5-crash-on-exit/ without any luck.

Also, I tried the suggestion at https://helpx.adobe.com/photoshop/kb/unexpected-crash.html and I couldn't find the 'Save in Background' option on CS5 so couldn't try it.

But fortunately, I think the software is working fine besides crashing when being closed. I will keep tinkering with this though.

Thanks,
Brian

In case that the trick with ticking of “Allow the apps below to control your computer” (under macOS’s Security & Privacy settings in System Preferences) does not seem to work on first try, as was my case in the beginning, try this:

1. Remove „Adobe Photoshop CS5“ from the list by selecting it and then selecting the - (minus symbol) below the list.

2. Add „Adobe Photoshop CS5“ to the list again by clicking on the + (plus symbol) below the list and navigate to the Photoshop CS5.app in the Applications folder.

3. Tick the box in front of „Adobe Photoshop CS5“ in the list of “Allow the apps below to control your computer”.

After re-adding „Adobe Photoshop CS5“ to the list of apps in “Allow the apps below to control your computer” Photoshop CS5 is fully working for me again!

Hi, I am having the same issue but with an old version of Nox App Player. Is there a general way to run apps with authorization revoked?
