Endless loop… MacOSX10.8.5 new download never opens

Downloaded file only prompts to be put into application folder. I do this, right click icon on screen to eject, re-open app folder, double click icon, another prompt to be put into applications folder… On and on… Never actually opens.

Downloaded file only prompts to be put into application folder.

Actually, it prompts you to drag an icon of the program into the icon of a shortcut to the application folder in a graphic. Is that what you’re doing?
