Ok, did this.  Actually, did that before with the same problem.  Here is the info from the terminal:

Last login: Mon May 28 18:10:26 on ttys000
Nicholass-iMac:~ nicholas$ /Applications/Gnucash.app/Contents/MacOS/Gnucash
Application Path /Applications/Gnucash.app/Contents/MacOS/Gnucash

(process:1826): gnc.gui-WARNING **: [mac_set_languages()] Language list: en:en_US:C
Found Finance::Quote version 1.47
Nicholass-iMac:~ nicholas$ 


Not sure what is going on.
