Answer supplied by Álvar García:

HIPE user installers do not work on Mac Operating System from Mac OS X 10.8 (Mountain Lion) onwards due to additional security checks first implemented in this operating system version. 

There are two workarounds: 1. In a terminal window, use the chmod u+x command to change the permissions of the file HIPE_9_1_0_INSTALLER.app/Contents/MacOS/HIPE_9_1_0_INSTALLER.

Change the file name according to the HIPE version you are installing. Unless there is a specific reason not to, you should use the latest HIPE version (15.0). 2. In Mac OS X, from 'System Preferences --> Security & Privacy --> General --> Allow applications downloads from' select 'ANYWHERE'.

If you have installation problems other than the one reported here, please consider installing instead Virtual HIPE, which runs a Debian Linux installation of HIPE on a VirtualBox Virtual Machine. This should run on any OS/Platform combination, present, or future. You can find full download instructions at: https://www.cosmos.esa.int/documents/12133/1028864/Virtual+HIPE+Quick+Start+Guide

The Herschel Science Centre has also produced a useful short videotutorial that shows you how to install and configure Virtual HIPE. You can find the videotutorial here:
