I downloaded Python 3.2 for Mac but when I tried to install it, I got an error that says: "The installation failed. The installer could not install the software because there was no software found to install." |

Thanks for the bug report. However, 3.2 is no longer supported. If you can reproduce this with 3.5 or 3.6, then please list the exact steps, including: OS version where you got the file you downloaded what steps you took to install it I'm closing this, but feel free to re-open it if you can reproduce with a supported version of Python. |

Just FYI, older python.org installer downloads for macOS, such as those provided for Python 3.2.x, used a now-obsolete installation package format that is no longer supported by the macOS installer app. Those installer downloads have file names that end with .dmg. More recent installer downloads are files ending with .pkg and should work OK. As Eric notes 3.2 is very old by Python 3 standards and its use should avoided. |
