Umm, "clicked on file got the app"?
You presumably downloaded Gnucash-Intel-3.6-1.dmg. When you double-click that
you get a new Finder window with Gnucash and some text files inside of it. Drag
GnuCash to the Applications folder, unless you've already deleted the old one
or dragged it to the trash you'll get a dialog telling you that there's already
a Gnucash there and asking if you want to cancel, keep both, or replace. Pick
replace.
Once the copy finishes you can click the Gnucash icon either in the
Applications folder or the dock if you've installed it there. Click the dock or
double-click the Finder icon. Gatekeeper will verify the package then tell you
that you downloaded it from the web and ask if you want to open it. Tell it you
do. At this point Gatekeeper is supposed to open GnuCash but it sometimes
doesn't. Just launch GnuCash again. Gatekeeper will have removed the quarantine
already so GnuCash should start up. It may take a few seconds but the Dock icon
will start bouncing immediately and keep bouncing until the splash screen (or
main window if you've turned off the splash screen in preferences) comes up
