Im using Mac OSX El Capitan 10.11.4
trying to open Zip Audacity 2.1.1
I downloaded it, clicked. it gave me a message about how the mac only approved apps from the mac app store.
I changed it in the security settings to accept it. Now I click on it it bounces twice then disappears, no error messages or anything 
I dont know what to do. Im not great at computers but I love Audacity. Please help!!
The current Audacity is 2.1.2 from here:

Are you using one of the accessible versions?

You are intended to get one of those standard Mac graphics where you drag this icon into that icon to install the program. Find Audacity in Go > Applications and double click it to launch.
Drag the application into the dock (attached).

Thank you all for the help. I fixed it shortly after I posted. I just went down the list downloading and unloading till I found one my computer liked lol
