Verifying Gnucash

[Robert Kesterson]

If you dragged the actual dmg file into your applications folder, you can drag it back out again.   You need to open the Dmg file with finder, which will show the GnuCash allocation icon and some others.  Drag the GnuCash application icon into your application folder. It should install the application (you may see a progress bar or something). Once that finishes, you can eject the dmg if you like. The running the GnuCash application should work.
