launching an app causes it to bounce a couple times then nothing happens
When trying to launch a program from the dock on OSX, 10.14 or below, the app icon bounces but the program fails to launch. Keywords: Mac, Bounce, Software, Launch, OSX
This can be due to security settings on OSX preventing programs downloaded from the internet from running. This setting can change after OSX is updated.
The log was not clear why the program terminated. It had to be uninstalled, and reinstalled as the non-privileged user with administrator authentication, and then the Gatekeeper override was necessary as described above.
