When I double click on a Sage 3.0 icon, it opens in emacs! More likely for you, it opens up the Terminal application. This is a very simple text based interface into which you can type commands. Type "notebook()" into the Terminal and you'll enter a graphic environment in your web-browser. If something else happens, simply cntrl-click on the Sage icon to pull up a contextual menu. From there you can choose "Open with" and select the Terminal application which is in Applications/Utitlites. You can also choose "Get Info" from the textual menu and then click a box to make this the default behavior. > Choose Applications, then select "All Applications" in the > "Enable:" drop down.

This depends on your preference settings and I guess it didn't happen in your case. I think there will be a nice clickable Mac App soon.
