John Chamberlain Posted February 9, 2017 Posted February 9, 2017 (edited) About 3 months ago I tried to open an app and was greeted with a message stating: "Do you want the application “FileMaker Pro Advanced.app” to accept incoming network connections?" There were Accept and Deny buttons at the bottom, and there was a warning about what would happen if I denied the question, like this: "Clicking Deny may limit the application’s behavior. This setting can be changed in the Firewall pane of Security & Privacy preferences." I can't seem to find the referenced Firewall pane. I find that if I click on Accept or Deny the app opens OK, but every sign (of this app or any other) on has this same thing happen. How do I get rid of this?

Wim Decorte Posted February 9, 2017 Posted February 9, 2017 It's a Windows firewall setting. You can set up a rule in the Windows firewall to avoid this, or turn off the firewall on your computer if you have a firewall upstream in the network.
