Not a Mac-user myself, but a client says during the installation he needs to uncheck the "Needs to be approved by developer" or similar, to be able to install it. Also it seems to take many GB of RAM when doing the "verifying installation" part. Anyone can confirm or help add more details to this issue?

Hi @sigtill,
Our recent Mac Installers should work when the "Allow apps downloaded from..." setting is set to "Mac App Store and Identified Developers". We do not advise our users to lower this security setting to "Anywhere" in order to install FME.
The latest installer for FME 2016.1 for Mac (Tech Preview) can be found here. Or if your client prefers, he can try out the latest beta of FME 2017.0 for Mac, here.
As for the "Verifying..." step, this is actually a known problem for many Mac users for any application. Please see this article for more details.
