workaround to avoid changing the default security preference for applications (Allow applications downloaded from Mac App Store and identified developers):

1. enter these commands in terminal:
cd ~/Library/PreferencePanes/LiteSwitch X.prefPane
open Contents/

2. right click "LiteSwitch X.app" and select open. After a warning, you add the core tab switcher application has an exception to your default security policy.

The approach in notes didn't work for me in Mountain Lion. ML still complained every time i tried to use LiteSwitch's preference pane and wouldn't allow me to enable it.

In the end i temporarily allowed all applications to be run by enabling the "Allow applications downloaded from Anywhere" setting in the "Security & Privacy" preferences, then enabling launch LiteSwitch again and enabling it via it's pane, and then set the "Security & Privacy" settings back to their default.

Now it seems to run fine without any issues.

jakkke-

To get LiteSwitch X to boot under ML, open ~/Library/PreferencePanes/LiteSwitch X. prefPane and right click to Show Contents. Under Contents/Resources, create an alias for LiteSwitch X.app and move this alias to the Utilities folder.

Now add this alias to your login startup items and make it hidden.

Hey Scott,

For me the alias seems to open up as text file on start-up rather than as an executable.

Any ideas why?

I have the same problem as Ribrob trying to get LiteswitchX to automatically load on reboot/login. I tried the alias approach and upon login it tries to open it as a text file.
