Failed to verify preflight file

I consistently get this message after upgrading to Mavericks when attempting updates of Apple software (eg iMovie, iPhoto, etc) in App Store: "Failed to verify the preflight file. It is not signed by Apple." Can anyone help me get past this message and update my software?

Failed to verify preflight file ... App Store broken after Mavericks upgrade

I upgraded my OS X to Mavericks and the install was very smooth. Since then, however, I cannot update any apps or purchase new ones in the App Store. I receive a message saying "Failed to verify the preflight file. It is not signed by Apple. The application will be available from the Purchases page." Unfortunately the same thing happens when I use the Purchases page as well.
Am I doing something wrong or did something break with App Store after my installation?

What worked for me was changing the certificate preferences in Keychain Access (open Keychain Access app and then go to preferences).
I just changed both of the first two options to 'Best Attempt', they were originaly at 'Require if certificate indicates'.
Hope this Helps

Failed to Verify License File Digital Signature

We are trying test our license file with our add-on identifier as provided by SAP. We keep getting a different error each time. Now we are getting "failed to verify license file digital signature" After we did the name substitutions in our license file. How do we fix this?

Hi,
I am sorry, but this is the forum around Solution Certification - not about general SDK questions or issues.
Please use the "regular" Forum (SAP Business One SDK)!
Thanks
PS: You must never modify the license file!

PREFLIGHT FILES NOT SIGNED BY APPLE

HAVING TROUBLE INSTALLING UPDATES & DOWNLOADS FROM THE APP STORE. I GET A MESSAGE FAILED TO VERIFY PREFLIGHT FILES NOT SIGNED BY APPLE.

Please disable automatic updates in the App Store preference pane and try to install the updates one at a time.

I try to purchase pages (after upgrading to maverick) and get this message: Failed to verify the preflight file. It is not signed by Apple.

I try to purchase Pages (after upgrading to Maverick OS) and keep getting this message:
Failed to verify the preflight file. It is not signed by Apple.
How to I get past this? I cannot find anything referencing preflight file. Who can identify this?

Back up all data.
Launch the Keychain Access application in any of the following ways:
☞ Enter the first few letters of its name into a Spotlight search. Select it in the results (it should be at the top.)
☞ In the Finder, select Go ▹ Utilities from the menu bar, or press the key combination shift-command-U. The application is in the folder that opens.
☞ Open LaunchPad. Click Utilities, then Keychain Access in the icon grid.
From the menu bar, select
Keychain Access ▹ Preferences ▹ Certificates
There are three menus in the window. Change the selection in the top two to Best attempt, and in the bottom one to CRL. Log out, log back in, and test.

Failed to verify the preflight file. It is not signed by Apple.

This morning I was able to download iMovie, iPhoto and iBook Aurhor without getting this error: Failed to verify the preflight file. It is not signed by Apple.
However I am still getting this error when trying to update Numbers, Keynote, Pages and Aperture 3.5. I am starting to think this all maybe caused by a server overload with Apple.
Anyone else receiving this error: "Failed to verify the preflight file. It is not signed by Apple" when trying to update Aperture 3.5?

Hi William,
What worked for me was changing the certificate preferences in Keychain Access (open Keychain Access app and then go to preferences).
I just changed both of the first two options to 'Best Attempt', they were originaly at 'Require if certificate indicates'.
Then I go to "Purchased" and from there I downloaded the updates, this time without any problems.
Hope this Helps.

Getting "We could not complete your update. Failed to verify the preflight file..."

getting "We could not complete your update. Failed to verify the preflight file. It is not signed by Apple." message when trying to update Apps via the App Store. Get similar message for download of a free app. Console message is:10/23/13 2:00:27.610 PM storeagent[310]: *** Assertion failure in -[ISCheckPreflightOperation verifyDistributionAtURL:allowsDevSign:allowsUnsigned:osVersionToBeInstalled:err or:distributionController:], /SourceCache/Pisa/Pisa-232/ISCheckPreflightOperation.m:314
Any ideas?

Similar threads solve this problem by either creating a new administrator identity, which allows one to update applications, or changing the keychain prefs to Best attempt. My issue was solved by adding a new admin user, and then updating the apps from the App store using the new identity. Under my orginal user identity the keychain app would crash when I attempted to open Prefs. After creating a new identity and updating the applications (iPhoto, etc) I found I was able to open the keychain Prefs logged into my orginal identity.

I have completed the OS X upgrade, restart etc. but when attempting to update 8 other Apps to X I get this message: WE COULD NOT COMPLETE THIS UPDATE Failed to verify the preflight file. It is not signed by Apple?

I have completed the OS X Maverick upgrade, restart etc. but when attempting to update 8 other Apps to X Maverick I get this message:
WE COULD NOT COMPLETE THIS UPDATE
Failed to verify the preflight file. It is not signed by Apple.

I am trying to install the updates from Mac AppStore but it keeps aborting saying the it cannot verify the PreFlight File and that it's not signed by Apple. What is going on?

I am trying to install the updates from Mac AppStore but it keeps aborting saying the it cannot verify the PreFlight file and that it's not signed by Apple. What is going on?

Just attempted to run the update and still rec'd the same message. I also see that there are many others who are havig the exact same problem. How can I get Apple support to look at it?

Preflight File

Can anyone tell me what the Preflight File is, how to obtain it, how to get it signed by Apple, and why I'm getting error when I attempt to update any software application from the App Store?
"Failed to verify the preflight file. It is not signed by Apple."
Downloaded Mavericks last night, and now I'm experiencing this problem.

Hello mgmccomy,
You might consider creating a test administrator account on the computer and attempting the updates there.
The first and easiest test to try is to see if the issue affects a different user account on your Mac. Each user account has customized preferences and other items stored in its home directory. You'll first need to create an additional user if one does not already exist (follow steps a-h below). Then, log out of the current user and test the issue in the new user account.
If this resolves the issue, there may be an issue with a file in the home directory of the original user account.
From the Apple menu, choose System Preferences.
From the View menu, choose Accounts (or choose Users if using Mac OS X v10.2 or earlier).
Click "+" (or click New User if using Mac OS X v10.2 or earlier).
Give the new user a name and short name.
Mac OS X v10.3 or earlier only: Click the Password tab, and give the user a password.
Mac OS X v10.3 or earlier only: Click Security.
Select the checkbox for "Allow user to administer this computer". This makes the user account an administrator.
Click OK, or quit System Preferences.

Failed to verify gateway status. The remote name could not be resolved: 'machinename' Office 365, Power BI

Hi
I am trying to setup a Power BI On Premise datasource at a client site.
I successfully installed the Data Management Gateway (DataManagementGateway_1.2.5303.1_en-us (64-bit)) software on a Windows Server 2012 box and created the Gateway on the Power BI Office 365 site.
The Gateway is running correctly with no errors. When trying to setup the Datasource I get an error. As soon as I try to set the credentials the following message appears.
Failed to verify gateway 'GatewayName' status. The remote name could not be resolved: 'servername.domainname.net’
The servername which is returned in the error message is exactly the name which the DMG was installed on.
There is a firewall in place with a proxy server and I don't know if this might cause the problems. The
following website suggests adding the proxy settings in the config files of the DMG but this did not solve the problem.
The above setup process works perfectly when running the DMG from my laptop, connecting to a Gateway and creating a DataSource connecting to SQL Server.
Any assistance would be appreciated.

HI
Thank You for the reply.
I resolved the issue in the mean time. I was on laptop which does not belong to the domain.
When setting up the datasource you should be on the same domain as the datasource as per the below post.

Error msg when I compact: The folder 'Inbox' could not be compacted because writing to folder failed. Verify you have enough disk space, and have write privileg

I recently had my computer serviced. I re-downloaded Thunderbird (getting a newer version), and retrieved my saved email. Now, Thunderbird keeps asking me to compact, but when I do, I get this error message:
The folder 'Inbox' could not be compacted because writing to folder failed. Verify that you have enough disk space, and that you have write privileges to the file system, then try again.
Obviously, since I'm getting mail all the time, I have write privileges, and disk space. The question is whether there's a setting I need to specify, or whether Thunderbird is writing to a special partition that may have gotten write-protected when my computer was in the hospital - or whether this is related to a known bug.
All help appreciated.

The only know bug I can see is probably your anti virus is trying to scan the file when the new inbox is created leaving Thunderbird to think the file was not created.
As an experimental / diagnostic process. Restart the machine in safe mode with networking using Microsoft instructions for [http://windows.microsoft.com/en-us/windows/start-computer-safe-mode#start-computer-safe-mode=windows-7 Windows 7] then try the compact. If it works I was most likely right. If it does not, another idea must surface.

AutoVue fails to convert big file.

Using AutoVue integration in our platform I need to process a PDF file of 8.8MB (some CAD drawing exported to PDF) with it’s markups.
We cannot just compile markups as a layer into PDF. Because of markups being in some proprietary file format by oracle we found no documentation on.
So the workaround would be a “convert” option in AutoVue viewer.
What is usually working fine with all files I know about, has failed for that PDF file.
Logging set ti DEBUG, I found that:
WARN [] [com.cimmetry.jvueserver.document] An operation is taking too long to complete, possible stability issue.
Please verify.

Method= fileConvert
ElapsedTime= 0h 10m

Any Ideas how to move on?
Is there some limitation in processed file size for AutoVue convert function?
PS:
Set -Xms512Mb -Xmx512Mb options which resolved BMP and TIFF rendering (thay takes very long even on powerfull hardware). However PDF is rendered empty!
Any help appreciated!
Anton

There is no information in this thread to be able to answer your question
I would encourage you to log an SR with ORACLE support and attach the file you are trying to convert
