Hey, I’ve just installed Csound on my macbook running with Catalina and it wouldn’t open my Csound. A window appears saying that I have to check with the developers to make sure that my Csound works with my version of Mac OS… Have anyone else encountered this problem before? If so, how can I go around it? ---

Hi russ12345! What do you mean wouldn’t open your Csound? What chip do you have? When you type _ **csound --version** _ in terminal, what is the output? ---

Yes, what do you mean by trying to open Csound, Csound doesn’t work that way. Are you referring to the installer? ---

I believe so yes. It might be the installer. “CsoundQt-d-html-cs6” ![Screen Shot 2022-09-26 at 11.07.08](https://forum.csound.com/uploads/default/original/1X/5dbcf46d1bafb2c409f508ded54157177d660f0a.jpeg) Here’s the message copy pasted… Process: CsoundQt-d-html-cs6 [94663] Path: /Users/USER/Desktop/CsoundQt-d-html-cs6.app/Contents/MacOS/CsoundQt-d-html-cs6 Identifier: com.csound.qutecsound Version: 0 Code Type: X86-64 (Native) Parent Process: ???

Looks like Csound is not installed? ---
