Hi,
I've run 2.6 on previous version of MacOSX but couldn't install 3.6. 
Having updated to Catalina none of my 32 bit software works! Thanks Apple.
Downloaded 3.7-1. Clicking the file opens a folder containing six files 
but not the usual File -> Applications facility. Clicking the Gnucash 
icon starts the verification process that loads the disc image on the 
desktop, puts an icon in the taskbar and leads to the "do you really 
want to open it?" dialogue. Choosing "Open" closes the window and 
removes the icon from the taskbar. Only the disc icon is left which 
invites one to do it all again ad nauseam.

Checking Help files, tutorials and various mailing lists has produced 
nothing useful.

I've used Gnucash for years on Windows and Mac with no problems. This is 
so frustrating and time consuming that I'm thinking of going back to 
spreadsheets.

Thanks for your time
Gra Smith
