I have just purchased another minecraft account for my kids and when I download the file it is corrupt. I am using OSX. The game works on other Apple computers that have the same version of OSX but not on this one. I tried to fine a way to contact support on their site but apparently they have no desire to hear from anyone because they have no email address that I could find. Can anyone help? I need to know how to download it correctly or an email address to get help from Mojang.
On Mountain Lion if you see a "Minecraft" is damaged and can't be opened. You should move it to the trash. warning, you have to set Gatekeeper to allow Minecraft as it is not yet certified as coming from a known developer. There are two ways:
in System Preferences > Security & Privacy set 'Allow applications downloaded from:' to 'Anywhere'. You have to click the lock in the bottom left corner, the one that reads 'Click the lock to make changes.' Start Minecraft.app. Once running, you may re-set Gatekeeper to 'Mac App Store and identified developers'.
right-click Minecraft.app and choose 'Open'. You'll be presented with a confirmation dialog.
You only have to do this once, you'll be able to double-click Minecraft.app on subsequent starts.
Thanks
