Hi Steven, The problem you are facing is a simple one. Apple has a software called Gatekeeper which restricts users from opening programs which are not download from the App Store. To solve this problem, you can follow these steps:

1. Open Apple Menu
2. Go to "System Preferences"
3. Open the "Security and Privacy" Window
4. Select "General" Tab
5. Under the option "Allow Applications Downloaded From:", select "Anywhere"

This will solve your problem and you will be able to run "Bean" smoothly. 

Regards
