Snapp! Author App problem (Mac)

How didn't it work? Was there an error message?

cd: no such file or directory: /Applications/3D cube.app/Contents.MacOS
zsh: no such file or directory: ./3D cube

Sorry my fault, I meant

cd /Applications/3D\ cube.app/Contents/MacOS
./3D\ cube

(slash between Contents and MacOS).

cd: no such file or directory: /Applications/3D cube.app/Contents/MacOS
zsh: no such file or directory: ./3D cube

Sigh, I'm an idiot, I missed this.

cd ~/Downloads/3D\ cube.app/Contents/MacOS
./3D\ cube

if that still fails try

cd ~/Downloads
cd 3D\ cube.app
cd Contents
cd MacOS
./3D\ cube

and tell me which line fails.

The

cd 3D\ cube.app

line failed

And that's what the app is called? 3, capital D, space, cube in lower case?

i'll check

Hmm... :thinking:

Your computer is trying to annoy me...

cd
ls -l Downloads/3D*

and paste the results in here. Thanks.

Don't mind the 'bird' name

I'm so confused. There isn't a .app? I suppose we could see what's in the zip. But it looks like they've changed what applications look like in Catalina.

So, if I don't buy a new Mac, Turbo Tax won't run next year. And if I do buy a new Mac, Turbo Tax will run but nothing else will. It's enough to make me want a PC. :~(

What do I press?

Open. Or just double click it.

But that just makes/builds the application

Oh! The application is what I've been trying to look inside of! So yeah, do that, then do the

cd 3D\ cube.app/Contents/MacOS
./3D\ cube

thing.

Ummm... I knew this was going to happen

cd: no such file or directory: 3D cube.app/Contents/MacOS
zsh: no such file or directory: ./3D cube

Okay, wait. You opened the zip file and it made the application? If you look in Downloads in a Finder window, do you see the app? Or did it put the app somewhere else?

Oh I have move the app to my desktop
(sorry for late reply family stuff)

You stuffed your family?

Okay, sigh, cd to Desktop and then do

cd 3D\ cube.app/Contents/MacOS
./3D\ cube
