OSX 10.8.2 defaults to preventing applications from unidentified developers or sources from being launched. When you try to launch an app, such as xTIMEcomposer, that didn’t come from a verified source or from the Mac App Store, you will get an alert dialog that says "xTIMEcomposer cannot be opened because it is from an unidentified developer".

Temporary workaround

Right-click on the xTIMEcomposer application and choose Open.
Click Open at the next dialog warning to launch the app anyway.

Disable GateKeeper's Unidentified App Developer Prevention Completely

Launch System Preferences
Choose Security & Privacy and then click the General tab.
Click the lock icon in the corner to unlock the settings.
Look for Allow applications downloaded from: and choose Anywhere.
Accept the security warning and allow.

You can now launch any app from any location or developer.
