Tim,
Regardless of how I do it, I end up at the installer window. There
are 3 buttons in the group. The app itself, the app folder and the
uninstall button. I drag the app to the folder and drop it...I think.
This is where I am stuck.

Hi,
It all depends on the app you're installing. In the case of these kinds of
apps that you drag or copy to the Applications folder, all that usually needs
done is opening the app after the copy. So, once you've placed the app in your
Applications folder, select it from within that folder and press cmd-o to open
it. If anything needs installed elsewhere, the app will do it automatically
for you. There are some situations where it may ask you for license info or
some other things but in many cases, it just installs in the background. The
app actually checks upon each startup whether it's the first time it's been
opened and/or if certain things have been done, thus it won't need to run the
installation part of things again.
Make sure that you close the .dmg file and eject it so that you don't attempt
to run the app from that disk image. Apps behave much better when they are
running from the Applications folder.
HTH.
Later...

After uninstalling the app, I am now trying to install it. I must be missing
a step tho. I open the installer, it brings up the window where I drag the app
to the app folder. This is where I cannot figure what the next step is. I know
I should get another dialog that has the install button on it. What is that
step? Thanks.
