I am trying to install a mod on my minecraft and it made it damaged. So everytime I try to download minecraft and start it up it says it is damaged. I have looked on my mac and can't find any file on my computer for minecraft because I thought deleting all of them would make it not damaged.... How do I fix this?
I think the damaged file might be the mod, redownload the mod and try again.
Damaged? Please explain the term in either a screenshot of the error or crash log, if any?
On Mountain Lion if you see a "Minecraft" is damaged and can't be opened. You should move it to the trash. warning, you have to set Gatekeeper to allow Minecraft as it is not yet certified as coming from a known developer. There are two ways:
in System Preferences > Security & Privacy set 'Allow applications downloaded from:' to 'Anywhere'. You have to click the lock in the bottom left corner, the one that reads 'Click the lock to make changes.' Start Minecraft.app. Once running, you may re-set Gatekeeper to 'Mac App Store and identified developers'.
right-click Minecraft.app and choose 'Open'. You'll be presented with a confirmation dialog.
You only have to do this once, you'll be able to double-click Minecraft.app on subsequent starts.
