Ubuntu – Pycharm installed but not opening

pythonsoftware installation

I am running Ubuntu 14.04/GNOME 3.8.4 on 15 MBP Duel Boot. I am new to Linux and Python (Pycharm ide).

I have downloaded the Pycharm "files" from the software center but cannot run the program. The icon comes up in the side bar but when I click it nothing happens.
