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

You might be missing the Gatekeeper window.

Go to /Applications and right-click Gnucash.app, choosing 'Open'.

Now you should get a Gatekeeper dialog asking if you are sure you want 
to open it, confirm you do.

GnuCash *might* start, but might likely as not. Simply either double 
left-click on the Gnucash.app again, or click on the icon in your dock. 
It should open fine from now on.

You'll have to do this each time you upgrade GnuCash.

(note, 'left' and 'right' might be reversed if you've set up 
'left-handed' mouse prefs)

Regards,
Adrien
