Standalone Application difficulty on Macbook Air 64 bit

Dear Mathworks support

      Over the past couple weeks I've been developing an a MATLAB GUI with the intent of creating a standalone application.  Using the "deploytool" command, I successfully developed a standalone for my Windows machine, and it works successfully independent of MATLAB.  

       Using the deploytool method on a Macintosh creates a 'run_<component>.sh' file and an application.  The help menu states the *.sh  script temporarily sets up the environment variables needed at run-time and executes the application. I did  the following:
1. Compiled the program on Mac computer with MATLAB
2. Installed the MATALB Compiler Runtime (MCR) on 2nd Mac  computer
3. Ran the *.sh script on the 2nd Mac computer

When I use this method, the program runs successfully. The GUI opens, and works exactly as it did on the first computer

       I'm interested in the capability of running the GUI on the Mac without running the script, and just double clicking on the actual application.  When I attempt this, I've found the 'fopen' function does not work properly.  Obviously the program is  unable to access the toolbox of the  MCR.  Could someone help give me instructions on how/if this is possible?  Thanks for any help you can give me.

You can double-click on the .sh file.

Thank you for responding. I tried double clicking and it still is giving me trouble. It flashes a window for a split second and disappears.

Is it possible the script won't execute properly by double-clicking because it opens up a GUI
