[GNC] MacOS High Sierra 10.13.6 - recently updated to GNUCASH 4.0 and then 4.1 = app not opening

[Anne]

 Hi Dave, 

Thanks for your reply. I've started multiple times but the results are the same
However,  when the below warning comes up --- 

["Gnucash" is an application downloaded from the Internet.  Are you sure you want to open it? (Gnucash is on the disk image "Gnucash-Intel-4.0-2.dmg". Firefox downloaded this disk image on July 13, 2020)].  


----I didn't check the box that says "Don't warn me when opening application on this disk image".... but clicked on open....that's when nothing opens or happens....every dialog disappears.  Should I check the box that stops the computer from warning me? 

Thanks for your help, 

Anne

 Did you try opening it a second time? I’ve always had the gatekeeper dialog go away, and gnucash fails to open. Once gatekeeper has permission, it doesn’t interfere any more, and all subsequent launches work as expected.  My first attempt in a certain unreleased version finally seems to have fixed that problem, but we’ll see.
