First time using Python on my personal computer. Updated the mac version to 3.3. Then installed ActiveTcl 8.6.1.0, then tried deleting and installing 8.5.15.0. I tried opening IDLE from the applications folder, then from terminal. After that failed to work, I browsed the forms and tried what another user suggested to see if I had write permission to my home directory. 

Charlottes-MacBook-Pro:~ Charlotte$ /usr/local/bin/idle3.3

 Warning: unable to create user config directory
/Users/Charlotte/.idlerc
 Check path and permissions.
 Exiting!

Charlottes-MacBook-Pro:~ Charlotte$ cd ~
Charlottes-MacBook-Pro:~ Charlotte$ ls -lde ~
drwxr-xr-x  23 501  staff  782  8 Mar 22:49 /Users/Charlotte
Charlottes-MacBook-Pro:~ Charlotte$ chmod u+w ~
Charlottes-MacBook-Pro:~ Charlotte$ mkdir ~/.idlerc
mkdir: /Users/Charlotte/.idlerc: Permission denied

Please help. :)
