[GNC] Can't get GNUCASH to work on OSX

Ralph,

Go to system prefs under Security and Policy and see if there's  a prompt
to allow Gnucash to run - working from memory here so I think that's where
it used to show up for me.

Michael,

Check your system prefs under Security and Policy - I have "Allow apps
downloaded from:" set to "App Store and identified developers" and don't
get prompted to allow a new version to run.  All I ever do is mount and
open the dmg, CTRL-A to select all files and in Applications CTRL-V to
paste and select copy over if I already have Gnucash installed.

Cheers David H.
