Hi, I cannot open IDLE. When i try and open it from finder it says that the file could not be opened. When I try and open it from the dock, it bounces once and then nothing else happens. When i try and open it from terminal, it says that there is a bad cpu type in the executable. -Louis |

Thanks for submitting the version of IDLE you were using. It appears to be a Python 3.6.1 from 2017; the version is very old-of-date and no longer supported. Python 3.6.x is now in security fix mode only; Python 3.8.2 is now current. Unless you have a reallygood reason to stick with it you should download and use the latest version from here: https://www.python.org/downloads/ The reason you are getting the bad cpy type message is that the 3.6.1 variant you are trying to use was built for 32-bit architectures only. macOS 10.15 no longer supports running 32-bit executables. The most recent downloads from python.org for macOS are 64-bit executables and work fine on 10.15. |
