Having trouble installing Qustodio on your Mac? Do this

Unfortunately, you CAN NOT use System Integrity Protection (SIP) on your Mac if you want to use Qustodio.  In other words, SIP must be disabled to use Qustodio. As soon as you turn SIP back on, Qustodio will  report that it is not running/not protecting the system.
If you are ok with this, follow these procedures:

Before you can properly install Qustodio on your macbook, you must disable System Integrity Protection by following the procedure below. 


1) Restart your Mac.


2) Before OS X starts up, hold down Command-R and keep it held down until you see an     Apple icon and a progress bar. Release. This boots you into Recovery.


3) From the Utilities menu, select Terminal.


4) At the prompt type exactly the following and then press Return: csrutil disable


5) Terminal should display a message that SIP was disabled.


6) From the menu, select Restart.



If you ever need to re-enable SIP, follow the same steps as above, but using csrutil enable instead.
