Mac Help
Hi, I was wondering why my Minecraft on my mac will not run anymore? It would run fine I have the new Java and everything but, when I click the application, it asks me if I want to run this disk image and the application will disappear from my dock and storage completely. Anyone know how to resolve this?

OP, you could try control-clicking and seeing if there is an "open-with" option to open your application with. Is this problem new, or has it been something that has only occurred in the last few days? Have you done anything (e.g. installed some new software, upgraded the OS to OSX Mavericks, etc.) that could possibly cause this issue? Do you have Virus Protection or a highly-restrictive firewall that limits your application usage (this has been known to happen, as Java is a particularly... vulnerable coding language)? We understand you have a problem, but knowing a little more detail will help us to pinpoint it and help you fix it.

Disk image? To a Mac that's either a .dmg file or a .iso, to name the most common ones. Did you try re-downloading? Are you sure it wasn't renamed in the Application folder? This isn't a local home user issue, it's a system one.

I don't know how to check that.

System Preferencss and look for Privacy, look around on there.

I am the admin.

Okay, do you have it set so that you can run things downloaded from the internet? That could solve your problem.

Are you the admin on the computer? That could be the reason why it won't let you run MC.
