Newbie question here. I downloaded and installed GnuCash which is a .dmg file. I double click on the dmg file and it auto-installed, or so I thought. I could open GnuCash one time after installation. But now I can't find it. There is no icon in my Lauchpad and I don't see it in my Applications folder.
I'm still quite new to the Mac world so I'm a bit lost here. Any help will be appreciated.
MacBook Pro with Retina display, macOS Sierra (10.12)
Hello & welcome to Macdom. 🙂
I think when you double clicked on the DMG, it just mounted it, do iot again & when it mounts & opens the window, drag the App to the Applications folder if it doesn't have an installer app.
Double-click on that .dmg file. It should mount on your Desktop with its own icon. Double-click on that icon to open a Finder window on the contents. Drag the application's icon from the there to your Applications folder on the computer. You may now close the window and eject the .dmg file.
Applications only install automatically if they are provided with an actual installer application. However, in most cases they will not run automatically. First, you must double-click on them to have them install their software. Applications are installed in the system's Applications folder.
I can't find a program I downloaded and installed
