Hello again Mats,

You might probably know this already, but MacOS has been quite strict as of 
late on installing files that are not cleared of “security” issues as perceived 
by the MacOS. My second prediction is that unpacking the files alone will not 
get the OS recognized that LilyPond is perfectly innocuous to run on your 
computer. In that case, once you unpack the downloaded LilyPond tarball and 
place the folder to where you would usually place, you may wish to run the 
following command on Terminal in order to remove the quarantine attributes:

sudo xattr -dr com.apple.quarantine [the address of the LilyPond folder]

Replace [the address of the LilyPond folder] with the pathname of the LilyPond 
folder. Usually, dragging and dropping the folder icon from Finder window onto 
the Terminal window will have the pathname show up. Be sure that there is a 
space between “quarantine” and the address. 

That is the method in order to run some software programs or plug-ins, such as 
Portable: https://portacle.github.io/ (see under How to Get It —> Mac OS X)

I hope something works out!

Yoshi
