In all cases, I opened the dmg file and then dragged the LC app into the Applications folder. I never tried to run the LC app directly from the virtual drive.

Re: LiveCode Installation on MacBook Pro With OS X "10 8"
You are correct; that was clumsy wording on my part.What you did do was download a dmg file, open it, and then drag its contents somewhere on your hard drive.
No one INSTALLS a dmg.
YES.1. Have you tried opening he LC app with a right mouse-click?
YES, LiveCode Community 8.1.10. Opening that app resulted in the same 'corrupted file' error.2. Have you tried one of the Community versions I referenced above?
I also downloaded LiveCode Indy 8.1.10. I tried this two different ways. First I downloaded that version directly to my MBP, and it generated the 'corrupted file' error when I opened the installed LC app. However, after I downloaded that version to my Windows machine, copied it to my MBP, and performed the installation steps, it opened with no error.
Hence my comment:
I did also download directly to my MBP two other applications in the form of dmg files, and neither of them generate the 'corrupted file' error when I open them.It appears that the dmg files containing the LiveCode versions that I downloaded using my MBP are treated differently by my MBP than this other application that I downloaded this morning.
