On OS X 10.8 the concept of "trusted apps" was introduced. Go into system preferences, security, general, and find the "Allow applications downloaded from" area, and select "Anywhere".

I am most likely doing something wrong, here.  (As USUAL...)

I am a Mac user (mainly) and was happy to realize that CHIRP can run in OS-X!  I have downloaded and opened the chirp-daily-20130111.app.zip from today's daily build.  I double-clicked it to open, and now have the chirp-daily-20130111, which is a 1.3 Mb stand-alone app, from the way it LOOKS.

When I open it, it informs me that I should be made aware of the fact that this was an app that was downloaded from the internet, etc.  I click on OK, and it all just stops there.  (Repeated attempts to open the app have the same results.)

I ran DISK PERMISSIONS with no result that allowed me to go further.

I am running a Retina MacBook Pro; This came with OS-X version 10.8.2; Is this the reason for my troubles?  I will also be trying this app on an iMac, which is running OS-X 10.6.8.
