You say nothing happens when you open the file. To be sure, press VO f2 f2 to bring up the Window Chooser and see if there is a dialog that you missed.
If no joy, delete the file, dump the trash and download it again. It will take several minutes.
If I am not mistaken, opening the Downloads folder with Command-Option-L will allow you to monitor progress and when finished, the file will be moved to the Applications folder.

If its not in the Applications folder but you cannot download it, there is either a copy in trash or on a connected external drive. Empty trash and/or disconnect all external drives.

It kept pausing and when it only had a minute to go I went and did something else. As it turns out I still have Yosemite. I went back to the app store and attempted the download again. Nothing happened. Then the download link was dimmed. Is there some trick to this? Marie Lyons-- The following information is important for all members of the Mac Visionaries list.
