Some users have found that dragging the GnuCash icon from Applications to to the Dock allows GnuCash to start.
If that still fails, try opening /Applications/Utilities/Terminal. It will open a window with a command prompt. At that prompt type /Applications/Gnucash.app/Contents/MacOS/Gnucash copy any output after that and paste it into a reply.
