Re: [GNC] MAC Catalina Issue-Will Not Launch

[Adrien Monteleone]

It should not be a zipped file. It should be a .dmg which is like a ‘drive’. If 
you have a zipped file, you don’t have the right one.

You open the .dmg, and in there will be several icons, one of which will be 
GnuCash.app.

Open a second Finder window and navigate to /Applications.

Drag and drop the GnuCash.app icon from the .dmg into your /Applications 
folder. (you’ll likely have to provide your password)

(you can close the dmg window after the copy)

Right-click the icon in the /Applications folder, and choose ‘open’

Catalina will ask if you’re sure you want to open it since it was downloaded 
from the internet, confirm that you do.

GnuCash *should* launch after the app is verified. If not, a simple double-left 
click from /Applications or a single-click from either Launchpad or your dock 
(if it is there) will then launch GnuCash.

Regards,
Adrien

Hi John and Peter,

I downloaded 3.7 from SourceForge and it opened properly and I am back up and 
running on Catalina.

Thanks

Re: [GNC] MAC Catalina Issue-Will Not Launch

[Peter West]

Hi John,

He means to open the Terminal app, and type the Gnucash command.

Type terminal into your search bar, and search will highlight Terminal.app. 
Double-click that, and a terminal will open. In that terminal, on my Mac, I 
would type
/Applications.Gnucash.app/Contents/MacOS/Gnucash
and hit return.

(Just type /App then press tab, then type Gnu and press tab, then tab again, 
then type M, tab, then G tab. The command above will be filled in 
automatically. Then press return.)

If any messages come up in the terminal window, report them back here.

Peter

What do you mean launch from Terminal?

I launch from a 24 inch Mac desktop unit.

If you don't have 3.7 start with that. It's signed the "new" way for Catalina; 
older releases aren't.

If you already have 3.7 or you get it and it still won't launch, try launching 
from Terminal to see if it reports any errors there.
