Hello hello! I downloaded the file for Mac but I can't seem to open it :(
Any help?
Hello! The info from this forum might help! This might also help as well:
1. Open Terminal
2. cd to the *.app folder
3. xattr -rc *.app
4. Double-click, it opens
Let me know if you continue to have issues!
You can try the snippet that worked for me which was to do a chmod.
To fix this, you have to use Terminal to navigate your way into the file and unlock the permission settings that were changed due what we believe is from the compression.
I honestly can't remember where I found this code and when I remember I'll be sure to credit them, but with terminal you need to navigate to the download folder (or wherever you put your app) and add the following:
cd <PATH_TO_YOUR_APP>/<APP_NAME>.app/Contents/MacOS/
and add the following:
chmod -R 777 [applicationName].app
Hey there! Thanks for giving the link to the forum. It's the chmod that helped me run it. It was a permission issue, I suppose.

Hmmmm no, I didn't have that problem.
How about deleting the app then redownload it?
When you redownload it, try to unpack the app then copy it to the Applications folder.
After that open a terminal where you will chdir to the Applications folder then do the chmod.
At least that's what worked on me.
If it helps, I'm using Mac OS Monterey.
