    I have Mac OS X Mavericks (10.9.1).
    In case this could help others, the downloaded app won't run/open (error message says something about file being damaged and to remove it to Trash).

    I needed to do:
    System Preferences > Security & Privacy > Click the lock to make changes > select "Anywhere" for Allow apps downloaded from

    After the app opened, I changed setting back to "Mac App Store and identified developers" and click the lock icon to lock again.

    This needs to be done every time to launch the application? Is there no way to set it permanently for this app?

      No, this needs to be done only once, as already described in the tip above.
