Dunno what you mean by Go > Applications, but if it runs immediately it's not 
copying. Open another Finder window, navigate to Applications in that, and drag 
Gnucash from the dmg window to that window. It should pause for a couple of 
beats then put up a little box showing progress as it copies the app bundle to 
the Applications folder. When that finishes, eject the dmg and launch GnuCash 
from the other Finder window.
