I had the same error message (in English) on my Silicon Mac when I tried using the arm64 DMG. I figured, "I'll just try the x64 DMG for giggles." and, voila, it installed and runs perfectly fine.

... at least, I think it was the x64 image (might've been the x86_64). Either way, it does work. It's just INSANELY slow.

I have a MacBook Pro M3 Pro version, but i think is the same on every Apple Silicon device

Purely out of interest why are you using it over just the zm webui? I have never actually run zmninja on a desktop, well with the exception of getting it running a month or so back for the purposes of fixing it. So it does run on Apple silicon might just be the deployment side. I am a little deep into something this weekend to look, but will try and look soon.

Purely out of interest why are you using it over just the zm webui?

For me, it's easier to monitor things quickly like dogs at the back door, a delivery at the front door, etc... Just a couple clicks. Plus, I get the advantage of ZMES (which is basically my entire reason for using zmNinja.) One notification, one click and there I am watching the action.

@connortechnology nothing wrong the code as I built it here and arm64 dmg runs fine. Just looks to be a bad file or upload to GitHub. I couldn't see how the release files are created in GitHub, not CI I take it.

Was built on my Intel mac. Can you upload a replacement?

I can and did, but not signed and notarized. Can't get Developer ID Application cert as non account holder. Not sure if you can grab and sign it.

Do we even sign the things we put on github? I'm often up pretty early these days, perhaps we can work through this stuff this week once and for all.

Just verified that the "zmninja-1.8.0-mac-arm64.new.dmg" works perfectly on my Silicon Mac. Not being signed doesn't bother me. Thank you!

zmninja-1.8.0-mac-arm64.new.dmg works fine for me
