Hi, John, Do a command-down-arrow to open the disc image. Find an item with a .pkg extension, and that will be an install package. Once you install, there is nothing to copy.
If you don't find an install package, you may find an app. When you get to the app, press command-c to copy it. Press command-shift-a to go to the applications folder and paste it there.
